You might want to start with the MH wiki, honestly.

I'll probably not put up the ridiculous ones....for instance, I'll never put up that its possible Alex's middle initial is R.

EDIT: I can't seem to get the wiki to work right, and I figured it'd be better if I could get user input on it before posting them anyway. This also makes it easier to get back and forth between the theories page and whatever the discussion is. This also frees up space in the Entry threads by having somewhere to say your theory and not derail the conversation.

EDITEDIT: I wish that this forum handled spoilers the same way as my old forum, it doesn't condense them at all, and won't hide pictures.

Do you want "Jay is a Masky when he's blacked out" theories? Because mine's still surprisingly standing despite like not changing it at all (actually has more proof now, depending on how one interprets the funny tweets).

Okay, I'll go ahead then. I just know that sometimes these can make people rage like no other. xD

So, my running theory.

Jay spent the 7 month gap being a 'Masky', but not for the same reason the Masky we know is Masky. Tim is possibly insane, possibly slender-obsessed, we're not sure - but that's not Jay's motivation. Jay has turned to the mask as a defense mechanism.
This isn't necessarily dependent on the mask actually being a defense mechanism - just Jay's subconscious thinking it is. He didn't know Masky was Tim then, but he did know that Alex was missing, Brian was missing, everyone from the project was missing, probably from the slender-presence. And then there's this guy, who has attacked him, yes, but is still around. Weather Jay did it consciously or not, he started seeing the mask as a form of protection, and even if he didn't know weather or not it would work - hey, what does he have to lose at this point?
So he started wearing one while he traveled. And he stops getting attacked. The Operator never followed him much in the first place (and by extension probably doesn't care enough to follow him around if he leaves) but he's half-crazy from the presence at this point and so he realizes oh shit, this is working. So he keeps doing it.
But obviously, even if The Operator isn't directly interested in him, it doesn't mean he's disinterested - especially now when you have two masked fellows running around instead of just one. So he gets interested in Jay, and that residual insanity starts building. Suddenly, the mask isn't just an experiment anymore, and he starts wearing it all the time. He becomes dependent on it, the same way Tim is. And now, when The Operator's around, he starts slipping back into it - hence the sllee pno.w. He's slipping back into this alter 'Masky' that's now become a defense mechanism.

you have theories of Masky, Slendy, and TTA in categories...what about theories about Alex, Jay, or Rebecca? Or is this a more "antagonist" thread?

[Nex]

You know, if Tim does end up being TTA, and was using Jay to find Alex, then I get the feeling that so many people here are gonna rage, especially if Alex's middle name ends up starting with R.

I used to subscribe to the Alex=Ark theory simply because the first three letters of his last name spell ark backwards. Kralie
None of that middle name rubbish.

Also, my main problem with the Masky=TTA theory is that TTA always wanted J to return to the house, but it seemed like Masky kept chasing him away. It's those two different behaviors that continue my doubt. Especially when added into TTA's cockiness lately. If he is Tim, he got very confident after being de-masked. (The whole "do you know me? I will always know you" thing.)

This is also another problem I have. Tim totally let J get the tapes out of that safe before attacking him. He had to know that his de-masking was on there, so if keeping his identity a secret was so important, why didn't he stop J from getting the tapes?

As for the operator symbol, I don't think it has any significance. It's just a symbol. It doesn't summon him, otherwise we would have seen it in 26, and it definitely doesn't ward against him, as how many times did Alex draw it?

I just think that it's a symbol of the Operator not having a face. A circle with an X through it. And I believe that those who have seen the operator, and tend to obsess over him simply tend to draw the symbol.

Alright, that's all I got for now.
