Let's just call it The Brian Flavoured Tip House that had Masky in it.

Is it controversial that The House from season 1 is Brian's house? I thought we'd lain that to rest after Entry #20 boldly had them refer to it as Brian's house. :S (It's obviously the same house, even with the same furniture as Entry #18.)

Plus Alex says in Entry #22 that he thought he'd be safer "there" by "moving away", while standing in a hallway the exact same colour as the walls in Entries #16, #18, #20, and #23. I thought it was pretty clear-cut that it was Brian's house that Alex moved into during/after filming Marble Hornets.

The woods in Entry #29 being Rosswood Park has less proof than the house being Brian's, and everyone seems to throw that around like it's a cast-iron fact.
The woods thing has plenty of implied evidence and they never even showed the outside of the setting of entry 20. you can hardly see anything in the totally trashed magic house youre thinking of.

 		They tell us in entry 20 that they're sitting in Bryan's house waiting for him to show up. The couch is identical as the one in the abandoned house, and the walls look the same color.

I mean, we can argue over this one all day, but calling it "Bryan's House" is not only almost certainly correct, but also what everyone's doing. I guess "The house from Season One" would work, but eh.

Also, mfw Slendy. But really

Troy, please don't wait until 1:30 in the morning to give me the entry. I have exams!

 		I'm not even gonna bother mentioning that every time Jay went to the spooky house it was dark and blurry as shit. It's like explaining rationality to Shirley Phelps.

that he "remembers". he saw him in 29 and 23(? not sure if that's correct), but he doesn't really remember it. not that he remembers this one either, but i feel like that's different (i'm assuming jay retains his memory after this experience, but gets the 6 months wiped away at a later date).

Either I don't get what either of you are saying or I don't agree. He saw him directly in Entry #23 at 6:50, the Operator actually reaches towards Jay, and he remembers it. He said he doesn't remember anything except what's on the footage, meaning he remembers everything we saw in that video. "noentry" (#29) probably took place during the seven months, he encountered the Operator, recorded it, and doesn't remember it. That is the same as Entry #40. #40 took place during the seven months, he encountered the Operator, recorded it, and doesn't remember it.

 		First post here, had to make an account to say that those are definitely abandoned chimneys. Looks like I was beaten, though. Oh well.
I do wonder how old the chimneys are, I mean that one has a tree (apparently) growing out of it.

I do find it interesting that the phone rings twice before going to voicemail that last time Jay calls, almost as if Alex hit the ignore button.
I'm also interested to see what happened to that camera, and how it was returned to Jay. Someone made a point that Jay probably got the chestcam because you can't really drop it. Definitely sounds viable to me.

Does anyone else think that the tree roots Jay focuses on at 4:50 and 5:05 are meant to remind us of Slenderman-tentacles?

I wondered that too...

Another interesting point is how Jay seemed unable to move after encountering the Operator. Perhaps when up close, Slendy has a sort of enthralling and paralysing power.

He didn't comment on seeing him in #23, so I assumed that he didn't notice him and it was just something caught on tape or that his memory was wiped of the encounter.

Plus I don't think we can confirm that it was the Operator in #29, especially since looking back on the way Alex stands in the doorway in #35 it looks like it is possible that he was at the end of the tunnel in #29.

I'm going to go with #40 being the first time he remembers encountering the Operator but it actually being his second encounter, with #29 being after it chronologically and possibly being Alex (until it's confirmed either way I'll stick with this). This is ignoring the 7 month mind-wipe, which made him not remember encountering the Operator at all.

 		The Brick Tree.
I agree that the missing bricks in the tree are human shaped, and it does look kind of creepy. Though I have a theory on what the so called "brick three is.

When old buildings (like 1700-1920) burn down or rot away the chimney, and other free standing stone components, remain. The brick tree is most definitely an old chimney.

- One of the theory's about slender man is that he is one of the criminals in Alex mentioned in Entry #38.

I would like to argue that the chimney is part of the remains of Slender Man's home before he died and became Slender man. (Someone else made the claim that the place was special to him)

I would also like to point out Slender Man seems to operate around Tall thin things. (this is not an argument claiming he is gay) But Alex saw Sleny standing under a lamp post, there is of course the Reed tower, and now this Chimney. It may be a coincidence, but I think its worth making the speculation.

I have no comment or idea on Ales's involvement.

Doesn't make sense to me... There's no reason to assume he didn't remember what was in the Entry #23 footage, and there's no reason to assume he remembered what was in Entry #40's footage, even before the seven months amnesia. And why exactly are you disregarding the seven-month mind-wipe?

I was ignoring it so that I could speculate on whether he remembered it or not. I just didn't want "Yes he remembered it, but not anymore" over and over.

Anyway, the Operator in #23 doesn't really feel like something that would be remembered. Maybe he remembers what is on the tape, but look at what is actually on the tape. It just feels like a delusion that was just shrugged off.

We have no evidence yet to say he remembered #40, but it doesn't seem like he'd forget that encounter since it is so... complete. The camera doesn't cut and there's no warping around or anything.

 		I have a few more responses to show why I disagree with what you're saying, but I think there's no way I could express it without seeming like a complete douche-truck. Confused Maybe I could just openly state beforehand that it's not intended to be condescending?

Go ahead and say it. I just want reasonable proof. Mine is based off speculation, so proof will convince me. I don't mind it sounding insulting.

 		In #23, the Operator is seen for split a second right after Jay turns around and right before the footage becomes distorted. I think it's safe to say Jay remembers that.

Both in #23 and #29, we hear others' words being echoed in low pitch. I think it's safe to say that's the Operator's doing.

Jay didn't comment on seeing him in #23, because he never does past entry #7. He definitely acknowledges his sightings such as in #17 (I think that was a SA post or a private message) though.
