i cant see him either, but for all of these noobs, when mh first started, this forum was basicly a wheres waldo page for finding TO in the videos.

i know cuz i was there Laughing

ok, but never before has troy repositioned himself 3+ times like he is here. it's almost forced the way he's moving forward in his seat. don't go by my screenshot, it's resized. open the video and watch for yourself.

i'm not going to sit here arguing about it, but i can assure you it's not shadows playing mind tricks on me

What is the time stamp for it?

no specific time stamp, just look in that exact spot when jay leans forward each time. to say they're done playing where's waldo is absurd.

It is most certainly not absurd. All charcters evolve through the process of any series and that applies for TO he's done hideing in the shadows and he is ready to let his presence be known like what we saw in #46.

Here is what Pravado thinks he sees, but it is clearly not Slendy. It's just trees, and it's quite clear from his comments that he is unabashedly trolling; he's already claiming the lighting defense, for instance.

oh so you're one of those guys who thinks that anyone who disagrees with him is trolling. i was mocking the last thread's 10+ page lighting defense force.

if you don't want to believe he's there, then don't. i'm not going to sit here and convince you that he's there.

Nah, I think that people who make only negative comments about these videos and then claim to see things that aren't there and fail to adequately demonstrate it are trolling.

i legitimately wish i could be in the room to see your reaction when someone actually trolls you and you learn what the term actually means

The problem with that is that at this point Jay knows and is actively seeking out information about/looking for The Operator. In those other Where's Waldo style entries, save the one where Alex is actively looking and just misses something, the people who don't see and react to The Operator very likely don't know about him. Surely Jay upon these rewatches would be trying to spot TO as hard as we are, so I think the Where's Waldo element has to go away a little because now pretty much all the characters know he might be around. They will look and they will react if they see him.

think about it this way

from a storytelling perspective what would the author achieve by putting the Operator anywhere in this Entry. Like Kurt Vonnegut said, if it isn't advancing the action, or developing the character, don't write it. The Operator being in this entry has no actual point to it, and we're discrediting Troy and Jay as writers for beating ourselves for scouring for him such.

Good point. In entry 7, I think, the point was to show that thing was following Alex. In fact, Jay says that at the end of the entry.

Ding Ding, this make the most sense.

No need to put on that hot Operator costume just for the hell of it

I think Alex sacrificed Amy and is telling people different stories to cover his ass. He told Jessica that Amy was with him under the assumption that she'd just leave it alone and be out of the picture and he told Jay that he needed help finding Amy to make it seem like he was the caring boyfriend. IIRC, when Alex called Jessica in entry #43 we don't hear the phone ring or Jessica's voicemail pick up, we only hear Alex leaving a message on his side of the phone. Sketchy if you ask me.

Sketchy yes, but I think the reason we don't hear the phone ring or Jessica's voicemail is simply because he didn't have it on speaker phone?

Possibly, but I feel like when Jay called Jessica's phone initially to make sure that the number Alex had given him was correct it wasn't on speakerphone, he just held it away from his ear and had the volume up, whereas when he actually spoke to her, then he had it on speakerphone. I'm basing this off of only watching the video once, but it sounded different the first time versus the second time.

It was honestly just a thought that popped into my mind after watching the video and reading speculation here. Then again, I could be admittedly off my rocker because I'm so incredibly tired right now.

Both of these, not much else to say. Its hard to try and listen to someone who every new Entry or TTA response is saying they see something that no one else can, rip on how we are watching the video, and prove little to no evidence at all.

This is perfect. If O-Town was there J definitely would have noticed when going over the footage and pointed it out to us.

Re: Where's Waldo -

They aren't done playing it, the game is simply changed. Now, we see a 7:40 runtime video. "Oh shit, O Town HAS to be in this." So we watch. And every minute that he does not appear, tension mounts. Is that shadow him? Is he behind that light post? Is he going to appear next time Jay turns the camera up? Is he behind Alex? Is he behind Jay? Is Jay leaning forward to show him to us? OH GOD -

Nothing Is Scarier, and that's how they're playing the Waldo game now.

Still, I think he is on Slendy�s side, but he doesn�t know it. The times he seemed not to be himself (especially the time he walked DIRECTLY towards the Operator) imply he is being controlled/possessed. He is suspicious of everyone while ignoring he might be the bad guy.

Hmm. I don't know. Jay emphasizes how Alex refused to acknowledge the question of how he got out of the house with Slendy on him. Instead he deflected and got in Jay's face. It's still very possible that he's in denial about his associations with TO but I sort of feel it was going in the opposite direction of saying, no, Alex really is working with TO now.
It just seems impossible for him to not be aware when Jay is being confrontational about it.

Exactly, it takes away from the scare by putting him back into the background, when he has clearly become more a force in he series since season 1.

If Masky left the note in Entry 33, how did he get Jessica's number? Did Tim have some relationship with Jessica that we don't yet know about, or did he find out solely through snooping around?

Also, hi. I made an account because of this Entry. If a consensus was reached in the past somewhere that negates my points, I'm sorry.

I meant Alex didn't have the phone on speaker. Plus he was further away from the camera when he called Jessica. Jay on the other hand is notorious for having his phone loud or on speaker, so the camera picks up the whole conversation.

Yes, I agree with this as well. I misspoke when I said the Waldo had to go away a bit -- it's really just changed but still as present as ever.
