Ah, so we're at that point in the cycle where no one can prove their theories because the series isn't over, so we've degenerated to jokes that really weren't funny or original the first time they showed up here.

Okay.

As I began to see the series near the end of the second season and I can not read everything that is written here, I wonder if there has been talk about Seth's relation with TO. It is curious that in all appearances of the operator on the set of Marble Hornets, Seth is not present. Although he was the cameraman, he never caught any images of TO, or at least, Jay not found when he reviewed the videos. Suspicious. Seth Could be Hoody, TTA, and the head of the apparitions of TO...

If you're suggesting that Seth will turn out to be the Operator, then I just don't see it. Unless they really set something like that up ahead of time, and it was really clever, then I hate the idea that the Operator is anything so mundane as a living human being. After all that's happened, I think anything that portrays TO as weaker than an eldrich horror would be a serious letdown. It's one thing for him to have an exploitable weakness (maybe that's what the ark is about), but for TO to be caused or controlled by a regular person, rather than acting on his own unknowable agenda, it would make him far less horrifying than initially portrayed.

Seth may very well be TTA, but I seriously doubt he's got a more serious connection to the Operator. Also, on a nitpicky note, I really don't think that an amateur shoot like Marble Hornets, especially one with the minimal, cheap equipment they were using, would have a well-defined "cameraman" other than the director himself. That's just not how it works on that kind of student set. All we've ever gotten about Seth and a camera was when he mistakenly turned one off during "Entry #9." That's not enough to make the leap that "Seth = cameraman, therefore x."

At this point we can say that TTA Hoddy, prowls repeatedly by sighting locations of TO. In "Exit" shows images prior to sighting in #13, taken from a nearby place. Then Alex finds the symbol. In #56 I believe seeing the word "watching" written in a column in the room where TO appears, also saw the symbol in downstairs,it is curious also that TTA has used precisely this image of the operator in "Isolation" (I was there?). In #40/41 after the encounter of Jay with TO, a mile inside the park Jay runs, and hoody, he picks up the camera and go back to the car in what looks like a quiet ride, reaching the car long before Jay leaves the forest ... In #60 we heard steps over the maintenance tunnel before the onset of TO. Hoody knew that Jay would be there. In "Return" someone had to record the scene ...
I'm just saying that ...

As an OOG comment on the Seth = totheark/Hoody theory, I do want to point out that Troy and Joseph admitted in a Q&A panel that the guy who plays him was pretty much just in there because he was the then-boyfriend of the girl who played Sarah. And Troy has had a pretty clear vision of where he wanted MH to end up throughout the whole series, so if you think about those two facts... It doesn't seem likely that they would make him a very pivotal character in the series.

Although, for what it's worth, I do like the theory that Seth (or Brian, actually) might be behind TTA. I guess we'll have to wait and see

I figured this was dead, but since it clearly is not, are we referring to the "Tim is the entirety of Totheark" thing?

Because that has been proved...

[Lithp]

Not that Tim is Totheark, that Tim is the only one doing all of this. That is impossible, because Hoody & Masky have appeared simultaneously on multiple occasions. There has to be at least 2 people.
