I took that as that he looked through everything before this entry. That's all he'd have to look through to figure out if he's gotten in touch with Amy at this time.

Not If this is what's on the harddrive and the files on there aren't timestamped.

 		Maybe he did meet with Amy, but it was in whatever place Slendy takes people to--and his camera didn't work there, so there's no evidence of it.

It's worth noting that we have no actual evidence where this takes place. I think we're all assuming it happens after the events of Entry 43, but is there anyplace else that it fits in?

I too agree with the thought that he must be summoning the Operator. I can't grasp why, unless he's under control with him or making some kind of deal with the devil.

Someone mentioned that perhaps his drawings are commands or requests to the operator. I worry about the "kill" and such we see on those other drawings...

 		Just checking in. Good entry, sorta... Nothing was really spelled out, but I think we'll be lookign in the background of this one for a WHILE.

With you guys on the summoning the Operator thing. How and why, however?

Anyone have any thoughts on the weird tree next to the operator symbols he drew?

EDIT: P.S. - Bracelet. Cool

It's probably after #43 because Alex calls Jessica in that entry, and then calls her back in this entry to let her know he "got in contact" with Amy.

 		It seemed to me as if Alex was facing his fate and waiting for the Operator to come and take him. But no explanation for the drawings again, but I don't think they summon the Operator. We've seen that symbol tons of times people.

 		Actually, thinking about it, I'm convinced that the Shadow was one of the Maskys or another TTA member. Inquiry has, what I think we can all agree on, a shot of Alex's car - with the railing and balcony that we see at the beginning of the entry. I personally think the picture represents a shot from inside the apartment, but regardless - unless Alex is posting as TTA in Inquiry and for SOME reason trying to cast doubt on himself (rather than another part of TTA attempting to discredit Alex) - this has to be from someone else who was in the apartment at the time.

Maybe that explains what Alex was looking for with the flashlight? Maybe he heard a unknown!Masky moving around?

In Entry #42 Jay mentions the first bit of external hard drive footage is from the same date as Entry #41. As such, the external hard drive footage is timestamped.

I suppose it's possible, though, that not all of the hard drive footage is timestamped, or that the files themselves could have improper timestamps (copied to the hard drive at different times, or what have you).

To me, the drawings almost seem like they might be a way of dealing with the slendysickness. Like, it just overwhelms their subconsious to the point that -that- comes out...?

 		Surprised by how many people are digging the Operator in this entry. Gotta be one of his weaker appearances for me. Then again his shape is kind of distorted what with the fisheye lens, I guess?

This was a pretty adequate entry. It doesn't really have anything we haven't seen unless we've missed something (granted, we're still pretty early on)... The most notable thing is the Sigma, I think.

And I'm pretty sure that's Alex's shadow. The lump on the bed seems like a bag judging by the bottom right corner in which I think are handles. (Maybe it was the shape in the back of Alex's car, dohoho.)

It's possible, but there's no evidence supporting that. Also, I'd think Jay would mention it if suddenly a piece of footage was not timestamped.

But at the same time, on twitter Jay said he stayed up all night looking through the hard drive. I would assume this would be to find out if Alex called Jessica. If everything was timestamped, then the amount of footage to look through for that call would be very select.

Frankly I was more freaked out by the moving shadow when he was sitting on the ground.


Same here. I was freaking out when I saw the shadow T____T

 		I'm drunk, tired, and terrified, so I'm in no mood to sift through this thread, but I DID watch the video, and I feel entitled to say DAMN. DAMN SHIT. Just SHIT-GODDAMN! #easya
