I've had this theory for awhile now, since the very beginning of the ark speculation when TTA Hacked jay with Entry #####, as to what the ark actually is.
It hasn't changed... It won't either. I think this might be close to it if not it.

Here's my ark theory...
Let's look at the meaning of an ARK shall we...

An ark is usually a point of transcendence, a point where some grand thing lies that sustains or promotes LIFE... Like the Blessed Virgin Mary, called the New Ark of the Covenant by Christians of the Catholic tradition, mother of jesus, bringer of eternal life.

The ark of the covenant held the ten commandments, guidelines for life given by god.

The ark in halo held the key to the life of the universe.

Noah's ark held all life during the flood.

If we consider this, then that must mean, give me this one here, that the ARK is the thing sustaining the LIFE FORCE of The operator... the thing feeding it... which means Alex either IS the ark (not because of the whole Alex R. Kralie thing but because of him sustaining slendy through his life,) Or the camera case that is still currently in alex's possesion (I think, not sure) is the ark, because it stores the energy keeping slendy alive.


/End theory.
As far as who tta is... If we consider the above to be even partially true, then anyone affected by slendy would be out to completely annihilate Alex, and destroy the ARK, even at the cost of their own lives, as outright stated in this video. Meaning: Tim, Seth, Jessica, Amy, Brian, Sarah (If we ever see her again), and subconsciously/unwillingly, Jay.

If this is a bit outta context, sorry. Lol. I'm kinda tired, it's three am over here.


Well if the Ark is a physical thing it probably is something needed to destroy the Operator. So your theory would make a lot of sense. Masky has tried numerous times now to kill Alex but he never succeeded. Most of the time when this happened Oppy was somehow involved in stopping him from doing so (when Tim attacks Alex with a knife a lot goes wrong with the camera after + Alex audio is very distorted, when they try to kill Alex with a rock they are scared away, presumably by the Operator and when there is struggle with the gun everything happens off camera so maybe the operator interfered there as well).

However this is all still speculation, we aren't even sure yet that the Ark is a real thing.


oh my good lord if the ark is a macguffin after all this time.... Bang Head

Oh well, guess we'll have to wait and see, huh?

Anyway, back in context... Tim has got to be tta, just because he knew where alex was and was going to be in 52 does not mean that he knows where he is now. For all we know, TO could've teleported him outta harm's way after tim wrestled away the gun, and tim in frustration shot it at the place he was standing. He may not know where he is now... So TTA is still tim, I'm sure of it. And Jay's mission hasn't really changed. Find alex. Stop the madness. He's only using tim for it right now, and is going to try to weasel out the truth. We'll see what's true in the coming videos, I'm sure.


BTW: Hi unforum! I'm Lief. I've been a lurker for awhile. I love this site. Very Happy

 		Also, if you judge on the Alex hatred in this video, and the codes "No choice, end him" and "this is your last birthday," it may be safe to assume that TTA has chosen to KILL rather than HELP as per one of the season 2 videos.

 		Ok so I know I am late and I know this has been said before but I really think Alex is the ark. Not totheark but just the ark. If you look at the way this video is wrote I think it means

He(jay) will lead me to you

He will lead me totheark.

I think in the first one he is talking to Alex and in the second one he is talking to a group of people

It's just spooky music and the sounds of a tape being rewound.

Hate to break it to ya, but the Ark is already a MacGuffin.

Quote:
In fiction, a MacGuffin (sometimes McGuffin or maguffin) is a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or other motivator that the protagonist (and sometimes the antagonist) is willing to do and sacrifice almost anything to pursue, protect or control, often with little or no narrative explanation as to why it is considered so important.

 		So it won't be much longer until it's been a year since this video came out.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
By the looks of the OOG stuff, Troy might be out of commission for a while... and...


...How many people think that TTA's "Today is your last birthday" threat at the end of this video is going to be relevant, or even true?

My best bet was that, Hoody trying to kill Alex with his own gun in Entry #67 was his attempt at keeping true to his promise. If that's it though, then Hoody's going to look awfully foolish if that was all he had, when April 4th comes and goes.

It'd be cool if we at least get a new TTA video on April 4th. It would make a lot of sense and would probably explain why Hoody failed, if he did.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Of course, for OOG reasons, if they can't, they can't. I'm just saying, it'd be cool.

 		Right now, we're currently debating whether or not Marble Hornets time even synchs up with real world time any more.

I was wondering the exact same thing. TTA acknowledging that he failed or that he doesn't hold all of the cards for once would be a welcome change.

 		The "Last Birthday threat" could have been an empty form of intimidation, or meant something completely different than what we think it means. TTA might not have even been talking to Alex, but someone or something else.

As I've said before: Marble Hornets Time approximately equal to Valve time divided by 3.
