Although they have a very similar construction, these two are obviously not the same house. Sad

really? u guys think they're different houses? Sad It just strikes me as odd if they are indeed 2 different ones with how similar they look. i'm convinced that the TTA house is just from a different angle which explains the 2 central pillars being closer together.

it's just odd if they're different houses. like the with blasky/hoodie/woodsie debate of entry 45.

A change in angle wouldn't explain the way the pillars from Program look. They are obviously physically closer together than the shot we have of the outside of Alex's apartment. Believe me, no one would have loved it more than me if they had indeed been the same house.

PS I am still half convinced that someone other than Tim did the Alex!tackling. Cool

Plus the railings are much shorter in Entry 46 than in Program.

About the house similarities, here's the two, with Program's house flipped horizontally and rotated a bit so the pillars are vertical. Them being different becomes a bit more obvious this way.

Good job, hard to separate the deny the differences now.

Wanted to get my reply in before page 50...

Holy. Shit. My heart.

Things to note on first viewing:
    1)Alex is deaf. I mean, Jay sounded like an elephant running up the stairs. And into the closet. And...
    2)The drawings! Oh the drawings.
    3)I agree that Alex seemed.. expectant of Jay, and it strikes me as odd.

Hello! Been lurking here since the start of Season 2, but I think this entry just jolted me out of un-lurking OTL So posting for the first time.

I think most of what I've wanted to say about this has already been said, but I just thought I'd like to join the discussion by adding my own 2 cents in.
To me Alex's "Help me Kill me" scribblings really does seem to indicate that he's in some way being controlled/his real personality is being suppressed, and it's agonizing to the point of wanting to die. Sad kind of terrifying really...
This whole "Eyes" thing has been popping up a lot recently it seems, with the "headlights" we've seen in TTA videos to more mad scribblings and such. The papers also seemed to have titles of other TTA videos like "Warning" and "Return". Something possibly notable in Warning is that at some point it says "Eyes Open", again, a reference to eyes. And (this is most likely just stretching to be honest) Jay's eyes were wide open in Return. I honestly don't have a good idea of how it all connects together, but I thought it was interesting.

Also, Jay. Rolling Eyes oh Jay, I love you, but goddamn. At least turn your cellphone off if you're trying to ninja into someone's house. Although with his thundering footsteps I got the distinct impression that Alex knew from that point that Jay was breaking in. I'm not sure what Jay was trying to accomplish by stalking Alex/breaking in other than some vague hint of what's up with Alex... but he did end up with the key. Now the key. I have a couple conjectures as to what it could be, in order from what I most think to what I least think:

a) a spare key to Alex's apartment, meaning Jay may break back into there in a later video.
b) A spare key to Amy's apartment from earlier, meaning Jay could investigate that house. (which, as we have found by now, never goes well for Jay....)
c) A key possibly for something important inside Alex's apartment, whether a locked door, or a locked chest, or etc.
d) A key to some safety deposit box or other such thing, but I rather doubt this as there was no indication that something like this has existed before.

Again, all just conjecture, I'm sure it'll become clear in the next few, if not the next entry what it goes to.

Aaand that's all I got for now. I'm going to get back to my homework and try not to give paranoid glances to every dark window in my home. orz
Goddammit this entry. Why do I find myself sucked into this series, I am like the biggest scaredy cat in ever. I do not understaaaaand

I apologise if it's been pointed out already, but



Probably meaningless, but oooh headlights.

It would be better if it was two separate lights and not a light and its a reflection.

(where X accounts for ~3 months of time).


This is the chronology.

Entry #44 follows Entry #43 because of Alex's phone call to Jessica saying that he met up with Amy and to disregard his last message, ie the message Alex left on her phone in Entry #43, presumably earlier that same evening.

Entry #46 does not follow Entry #45 because Entry #45 makes it clear that the events with Hoody/Tim/The Masky Brigade take place 3 months after Jay first meets Alex in Entry #35. It makes far more sense for Jay to have become immediately suspicious of Alex's refusal to let Jay see his apartment, not for Jay to have waited over 3 months to get off his ass and do something.

Remember, Jay is occasionally functionally retarded, but he's still a pretty proactive guy.


Yeah, this is probably my favorite theory on the timeline, since even for the sake of jumping forward 3 months, I doubt Alex and Jay did nothing note worthy over a 3 month period, it was just to show that the footage he just watched and uploaded was dated 3 months later that everything else he's been posting.


This also makes me think of when Alex yells "The next time you come here, I'll kill you" So maybe Alex is threatening Jay and knows he either behind the mask. Maybe when Alex looked back he saw the operator and was like "Damnit, Jay."
