February 29th is one of the dates...leap year. Significant?

EDIT: I know I know that tune at the start, anyone got any ideas?

I just realized 9:99 isn't a valid time either.

I think the fact that Jay didn't post the link on his twitter points more to the idea that TTA posted this than to a Slender-trance creepy-post on Jay's part. After all, we HAVE seen TTA pull this shit before, but we've never seen Jay trance up a video before. I don't think anyone can say that it's "definitely" one or the other, though -- TTA could easily have been mocking Jay's misspellings, or it could have been Jay still in the bad state we've seen before.

I suppose if he's still in a trance state, though, updating twitter isn't something he'd do anyways. Blast! I have no idea.

awesome timeline listing


Hurr... I can't seem to pick out a common strain between those. They all seem like run-of-the-mill world politics. There are a good handful of references to naval events, but nothing that really ties all of them together so far. Durn!


Also, sadface to the Spongebob shirt. :c I was entertaining the thought that maybe this really WAS footage of Alex as a kid, like they'd conspired to actually use legit footage. Too bad!


To their credit, the kid does look a lot like Alex.

And I would NEVER have noticed the Spongebob thing if it hadn't been pointed out further above. I say we should just forget about it.


I agree on this one. Chalk the Spongebob up to an OOG thing.

Okay, now on to a real post. I've got to say, I'm starting to think that Slenderman in this case is an expression of Alex's, something that came out because of him. He's our "Operator". He's the fuel, anchor, whatever, that's keeping Mr. Thin latched onto these people. Get rid of Alex, or keep him from thinking about things, Slenderman subsides. Bring up memories that trigger him, Mr. Thin comes knocking.

Hence Masky's attempt to stab him. He's trying to free up Mr. Thin.[/quote]

^This
That would explain alot if the Operator is Alex and Tim is trying get rid of Alex to get rid of Slendy.

Speculation: Jay posts on Twitter (or in next entry) that there was no one with a camera at Alex's birthday party that year

That was... very creepy. Whether it's J or totheark that posted this, neither should have access to Alex's birthday footage.

OOG: Hopefully Troy will still post the footage they filmed for the real entry 37 this week, maybe throw in some survellance footage of what went on during his blackout period. It's possible that this was the footage they filmed, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't Joseph's actual birthday footage and they just dubbed in "Alex".

B: The Operator never physically appears in the films. He seems, to me, much more like an aftereffect. (As opposed to the "original" tapes when he was just in the background.) The Operator symbol implies something, but I'm a bit reluctant to jump at the obvious.

Of course, this may just be due to OOG skill evolutions, but even in some of the earlier season 2 entries, the Operator was there physically, rather than as some sort of overlay alone (cross-dimensional stalking, anyone?).

Long-time reader, first-time poster.
This.

It doesn't seem to me that Slendy was actually there; it's the same issue as some of the editing done to the video, including putting the Operator sign on the kid's face.
Seems to me that he's not actually in this video, but his image was placed there and thus affected the dates shown.
Not sure if I'm making any sense.

tl;dr The Slends is not actually in Entry 37's home video, his image is merely added to it to imply that he follows children (as per the Slenderman mythos) and that he is following Alex (which we already know).

What is far more interesting to me is that whoever posted this video has extensive access to Alex's family tapes. I'm leaning towards this being a TTA hack entry, meaning that Tim has done some serious stalking.

Where is this Spongebob shirt? Oddly enough, my parents used to have my birthday in '91 on tape and I remembered it while looking at this - this shit looks vintage to me.

Could Alex have posted this?


@lonestar: Get rid of Slenderman? Not likely. Free him to move on to some one else, HELL YES.

Sudden thought: Has anyone added the "t" from the title to our list of typos from the recent Twitter marathon? It may be important.

Also, I don't know if this is common knowledge, but all the 4's in April 4th and the attack in Entry 26 being at 4:04 probably relate to the Japanese superstition about the number 4, similar to the common beliefs about 13 being unlucky.

Dude, that Spongebob shirt made me pissed when I saw it. I wonder if he noticed that when he edited this video.

Whatever though. Still an awesome video. Creepy as hell. The whole date changing thing was amazing to me.
