 		This may not matter too much, but it seems like slendy is having some sort of convulsion when he appears in the distortion.

 		You know he could just be moving normally, and it's sped up due to the distorion.

He did also run in one of the earlier entries, didn't he?

Watch the video again. I'm 80% sure she's swatting a bug.


It's possible, but Alex looks over in that direction, followed by the symbol.

OOG
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm sure if they didn't want the "swipe" to be speculated on, it would've been edited out.

 		Been lurking a long time, finally have a chance to post~

I'm way too lazy to browse through all 41 pages, but I read the first 17 and nothing like this was mentioned. Going out on a limb here, as usual, but anything's worth a shot.

Does the music being played at the beginning of this entry (the "creepy Legend of Zelda-sounding music", as one person remarked) sound anything like the music in Entry #27? Maybe not the same tune, even, but just the sound of it?

 		The Operator moves quite fast in #26.

It probably doesn't matter, but can anyone tell what Alex's present is? To me it looks a lot like a container that a LEGO Bionicle comes in. It is even the right size and shape. However, the first Bionicles came out in 2000, so either I'm wrong, or this is another small error.

It's a jar of skippy peanut butter
Alex's parents suck that's why he grows up to be a picture scribbling, leg smashing, self recording psycho he just wanted one non perishable birthday gift
and now it's too late.

entry 19 & the totheark response kind of imply [that the masked man is totheark] though. both that tim is the masked figure in that video, and then TTA uploaded part of the missing 3 hours which implies that tim is TTA (unless someone else set up the camera for the TTA response- hard to know for sure i guess, but it's a far stretch that both tim and someone else were at J's house that night)


There was someone else in "Return," though. Or else Masky likes dressing up as the Operator and zombie-walking down strobe-lit hallways.

Entry 19 proves that TTA knew Jay was filming himself, but not how. It proves that Masky was in Jay's apartment, but not who he is or why he was there. (I still say, you steal a crazy man's pills, don't be shocked to see him sitting on your dresser later.) Jay believes Masky is TTA, but that's speculation. And TTA called Jay out by telling him he knew Jay was keeping secrets, not "Hey, watched you sleep last night!" For all we know, it was a nudge for Jay to check his cameras and notice Masky and the missing time.

"Return" shows catatonic Jay in a generic apartment hallway being passed by what appears to be the Operator (and let me say, indoor lighting is not his friend). It looks as if Jay's in the clothing he wore to bed in #19, but that doesn't necessarily prove this is the missing footage from #19 (plain jeans & plain t-shirt aren't great identifiers), or even that the hallway pictured is in Jay's apartment--we know his doors don't always open where they're pointed. The video itself doesn't necessarily mean TTA was in the apartment taping him, either, only that he has a terrible sense of humor (missing for three hours = "found you") and access to footage he shouldn't have, both of which are pretty much TTA in a nutshell.

tl;dr: it only implies what you want it to imply.

 		I'm starting to believe that Jay has a part of him that is Masky-esque, but is able to suppress it a lot easier? Either that, or it doesn't care what he's doing, except what he was going to post in Entry #37.. what if Masky and Unconcious-Jay are Slenderman's minions? In entry.. 22 I think? Alex even says that Jay and Tim are both gone.. but they're not, they're alive, except that Jay forgot everything. The Entry ##### could have been Unconcious-Jay telling him to keep flippin' moving.

Any comments?

 		If we're on the subject of Jay making connections, it might be worth mentioning that his first response to seeing Masky was "Alex?". Which I always thought was weird. Not only was it really Tim, but if anything, he should've thought it was Brian, since he was in Brian's house. Maybe he had it in his head that Alex was silently following him? =/ hm..

Anyways, re-watched the video again. I'm pretty certain now that it's TTA.

A) the aforementioned lack of title cards, etc.
B) the SS,SS-esque music at the beginning had to be edited in.
C) the operator symbol seems edited in (well, oog, duh. but ig as well).

and yet...

the video somehow doesn't seem edited enough. But then again, Return and some of the other earlier TTA videos weren't edited much either. So I guess it could still work.

What about entry 35? I don't see any motivation for him to be a fake TTA.


That proves he's the masked man, but not that the masked man is totheark.


entry 19 & the totheark response kind of imply this though. both that tim is the masked figure in that video, and then TTA uploaded part of the missing 3 hours which implies that tim is TTA (unless someone else set up the camera for the TTA response- hard to know for sure i guess, but it's a far stretch that both tim and someone else were at J's house that night)


The thing is, though, TTA wasn't at Jay's house that night. It seems like TTA knew Jay would show up at the house, and recorded him being there. What Mask was doing at his house is a complete mystery.

Honestly, I think the biggest argument against TTA being Tim is Messages- why feature his own face in a video response when he goes through such lengths to keep it hidden?


i guess that is true - but then again tim didn't change his jacket or get a new haircut to wear a mask that only covered his face. but trying to link TTA to tim based on 19 and "return" isn't possible anyway, as mokie said in a post after this the only thing we know for sure is that TTA had access to the footage, not that it was tim (or that it even took place during the sleep walking, although personally i think that is supposed to be implied)

very true...i think i might rewatch all the videos so far and try and do it from an objective/neutral perspective rather than trying to make sense of all the connections.

Hi, only my second post, pls dont flame me! I'm still trying to get my head around all the entries, most of them I've only watched once in the last 3 weeks, but fresh eyes can only be a good thing (I hope!)

Anyway, I lean towards this being a tta entry too for much the same reasons above. The more I go back to make sense of the timeline of the entries, the more convinced I am that Jay is actually tta during slendey-trance blackouts, or something. I haven't quite got to the point where I can articulate exactly all my reasons why, but I'm almost convinced that Jay/tta are one and the same.

- tta able to hack jays accounts so easily
- tta having access to footage allegedly only Jay has access to, or could possibly have
- tta's ever threatening/warning messages that relate to Alex (yeah, I belong to the crowd that believe Alex is being manipulated/taken over by SM)
- quite a few of tta's replies seem to be subliminal warnings about Alex, the one that really sticks in my mind is Exit, where it seems obvious that Alex is filming Jay, right after his encounter with SM. This screams Alex is being manipulated to me.
- more things I can't seem to pint point on paper right now

Gah, yes I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this, sorry if I sound like a noob, just wanted to get some thoughts down.

 		I'm pretty sure Jay uploaded this. The spelling of enttry alone is enough to convince me.

The biggest problem with Jay being TTA is... well, it's a couple of things:

Exit: Jay is filmed by TTA going to Alex's car. Now, granted, this is old footage, so it's totally possible that it could've been handed to Jay at some point.

Addition: TTA films Jay while he's in the house, having a coughing fit.

Return: The camera moves. First it's a close-up shot of Jay's face, and then it's farther down the hall.

The only way I can see a theory of Jay being TTA working is if the camera man just records Jay at very specific times when TTA tells him to, and then he somehow gets the footage to TTA and he uploads, all while Jay is blacked out or whatever.

 		I don't think that the spelling indicates that TTA uploaded the video (or that TTA is Jay). However, I do think that it means Jay is beginning to undergo whatever process led to TTA.
