An amazing poem

Dear god, that was amazing. I almost forgot about the total lack of an entry this week. Hat's off to you, that was great work there.

Yeah, everything about that was amazing. Kudos, Luno.

You all, I assume, remember Jay's tweet about totheark probably being different people. I notice several posts assume the message here is from Tim--while I don't think this is unwarranted, I'm not sure we can just ASSUME that this TTA vid is "directed" by Tim just because it includes footage of him.

Indeed I saw Timasky as the subject not the narrator of this one. I have a theory that goes against what most people are saying but hear me out. Feel free to poke out any flaws/stupidity, mine is a rather thick hide.

TTA has shown itself capable of finding Jay when needed, they may even know about what point in events Jay's likely watching now or what he will show next since they have full memories of the lost months.

What if the message isn't "Do you hate Alex enough?"
What if the message is "Do you hate Tim enough to feel that he deserved what happened to him [which Jay will show us in Entry 50]? <hint, it's not pretty and make make getting his skull pounded by a rock and taken away by The Operator look like a party.>

I just keep thinking that one TTA's lines "More than time has been lost." and thinking it refers to a life of someone close to either Jay or TTA.

Now OOG I know at this point reducing the cast so much might not be a good thing but neither Masky nor TTA were in the orignal script. Perhaps this is a way to prune those elements down to make way for a short final season that allows for an end closer to what this series was going to be in the first place.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while Tim limped on, weak and weary
The whole forum pondered on the nature of the latest Masky lore.
Did the eye come from the basement? Is the mask some kind of statement?
Why is hating "not enough" for totheark now, anymore?
Was Bruce extracted from existence? And is totheark's insistence
that Alex is the villain what the next vid's got in store?

As we nitpick and we screencap, maybe time for a small recap?
There's a lot of questions recently I really can't ignore.
Where is Brian? Who was Beardy? Why has Alex gone all weirdy?
Why the focus on the tunnel with the blood upon the floor?
All of this and so much more.

As we wait for the next entry, we see Alex standing sentry
At the entrance of the tunnel where we saw Slendy before.
Masky thinks Jay's not a hater, but he knows the Operator
But we don't know his allegience, who he's really working for.
Where the hell is entry fifty and will Alex get more shifty?
Can we please just get some answers, is what I would now implore?

It's only a suggestion, but there's just so many questions.
There's only so much mystery I can take right now, I'm sure.
I know I'm just a chancer, but I'd really like some answers
But at this rate we won't get any
Til the end of Season Four...

Totheark says: "Never more"

Bastard.

_{Yes, I really was that bored.}

Holy shit, this was awesome. Especially this part:

Are you implying that Tim may die in #50? That can't happen because he showed up at Jay's hotel after the events of these tapes. Perhaps someone will die, but then again, at least one person already has, and Alex may be lost altogether. Why do you think "More than time..." refers specifically to someone close the Jay? Seems like it could just as easily refer to Bruce, Alex, Seth, Brian, Amy, or Jessica, or to something that isn't a person at all--opportunity, power, health, sanity, Tim's leg, etc.

Someone should immortalize that poem in the wiki. Seriously.

My question is: why make a video like this? Unless this was like a stand-off or something and Tim was like "im gonna get u" and coming after the person holding the camera, why do they set things up like this just to send a message? Like Return or the one with the stop-motion baby doll (I forget the name).

That brings thoughts of how the TTA people do their videos.

Okay, you burn that baby doll and I'll get the camera. Make sure you knock that piece of the fence out.

Many people seem to be taking this as an obvious interpretation, but I don't buy it. I haven't seen anything approaching hate from Jay. His anger with Alex in earlier entries seems to be based in aggravation or annoyance. Nothing Jay has said since discovering #49 has indicated that he hates Alex now for what he saw, either. The emotions Jay does show feel very restrained to me. I think it's more likely that tta is saying to Jay, "Where is your reaction?! Did you not just see your friend kill someone?" Tta is either telling Jay to hate Alex (ala Darth Vader) or chastising and rejecting him for not doing so already. "You can't do what needs to be done. I hate him. I can."

I agree. Jay doesn't seem to have much hatred at all throughout the series. He gets angry, but I wouldn't call it as severe as hatred. Maybe this is saying something about Jay's seeming lack of hatred compared to Alex and Masky, who have both committed violent acts. I don't know if TTA (who may/may not be Masky/Maskies) is saying that Jay's seeming lack of hatred is necessarily a bad thing. Maybe it's like, "You don't have the slender-rage. That's a good thing." Or, "You don't have enough hatred to handle dis shit." Or something. I kind of see Slendy's interaction with people as based on some kind of cycle, and maybe Jay doesn't possess the capacity for that kind of cycle.

I don't know, just thinking.

I've also saved that poem for future amusement. (:

Well technically there are some TTA uploads that seem to be directed at Alex (see Fragments, possibly others, who knows) so I'm not even really certain that the hate we're talking about here is Jay's. It could be Alex's. Or, since it's not even confirmed that TTA is Tim, maybe it's Tim's hate?

Are there any signs in this video that would specify who we're talking about for sure?

Well it could have been on a tripod I guess. Or, since it's looking like Masky's been working with Blasky (or Woodsy? Same person y/n?) maybe it's them?

Yeah it felt like someone was holding the camera, so that's why I said something... (Hoody/Blasky and Woodsy are seperate entities/masks imo)
-goes back to watch again-

EDIT: Definitely someone holding the camera -nods-
