So uh, anyone else find it interesting that the Operator's new HQ is a hospital?
Perhaps this is hinting at the nature of Slendy; he's removing something from people. Their heart, soul, memories, free-will, etc. (Or, creepier still, maybe he does a transplant? Remove Alex's old self and replace it with a 'new' Alex more to Slendy's liking, making them better actors for this lovely show TO is operating?)

Anyways, this use of the hospital is making me wonder something; where exactly is Slendy's real base?
We had Brian's house, the tower, Rosswood, the Tunnel... I kinda doubt that Slendy just randomly drifts through Alabama, so what exactly determines where he sets up shop? I'd like to say Alex, but we've had Slendy summoned into Jay's house and appear in the hotel to go after Jess of all people, so...
Just what attracts a Slenderman?

I just realized, remember when we were all like "why would Alex run and get his camera in entry 45" because any normal person would have just ran after hoody?

It was probably because he knew there was a chance he would lose his memory and that would be the only way to remember it.



Still not sure how the maskys were able to get away though. Maybe the operator can't do anything, alex has to knock the person out first before he can have his way.


I never thought about it but maybe entry 23 was the sacrificing of jay in that case?



AND HOW DID I NEVER THINK OF THIS

the operator can take control of alex

what if totheark can take control of tim and control him to do w/e he wants somehow, like if he somehow obtained the operator's powers. entry 45 shows how they are using alex's tactics against him (lead him somewhere then hit him with an object)

seems a little far fetched but who knows

Thinking about season 1 and Alex's countdowns

[Foood]

Hmm, didn't Jay say that Alex would always go to Rosswood Park around the same time? Just a thought.

[RiftTraveler]

I always made the presumption that Alex's timers in Season 1 had to do with the length of time the tape would record. He'd put in a fresh tape, hit record, start the timer counting down from an hour (or whatever) and when the timer went off, the tape was about to run out and it'd be his signal to change it.

Thus, he wouldn't forget, and go for however long without being recorded.

I don't like the inactivity, here. I need Marble Hornets speculation to live on without Totheark/entry updates. Seriously. -_-'

So for the sake of sharing the thoughts of which are progressing in my mind, nobody is confusing me more now, than Tim. When he gave Jay the tapes, he was either being honest about not watching them before he gave them away, or he was lying and wanted Jay to see something on them that he was perfectly aware of. To me, the fomer is more likely because I can't imagine why Tim would be faking out on sans-memory in terms of Masky, and his lack of recognizing Jay when the latter first approahced him was pretty swift if he was being deceptive. In any event, I guess it can go either way right now.

They way I can see it, Jay can take this in two very interesting directions. If Tim really has no idea what's on the tapes, he can show them to Tim when he's left with no other choice, and then heaven knows how Tim would react to that. Or, he could just come clean and tell everything that's been happening to him before he shows Tim the tapes just to see how he reacts. OR, he could not tell Tim and just keep hanging around him to do more steady/less risky detective work. Who the frack knows. The only thing I'm sure of, though, is that Jay definitely wants to keep Tim around for whatever purposes, based on his tweet about calling him to make sure he hadn't lost track of him. Jay might actually want to cling to him for his own sanity, if Tim is ironically the only ally he's got at the moment, now that Jessica is gone.

I just. I don't know. I need the next entry. Or at least a Totheark reply. e.o

The way I see it

Alex gave Jay the tapes to show he was the victim in all of this.

Tim gave Jay the tapes to show he was the victim in all of this.

[Magyk]

Startling lack of analysis on why Tim would remember Jay, the tapes, working on MH, etc, but not remember having the ever loving sh*t beat out of himself with a metal rod by his good friend.

Any ideas? =S

[Jamocha101]

Well, because the Operator was, like...right there, which probably resulted in a Timnesia, because that's what the Operator DOES. I think TIm remembers all of the MH stuff that happened when he wasn't coming in contact with Slendy, and the Operator showed up and more than likely did something with/to him right after Alex hit him with a stickpipe. Since he's acting normal, it's probable that he doesn't really remember anything as Masky, and if Entry #56 truly was the birthplace of our beloved masked psychopath, then that could account for it as well.
