Any blog named Open Arms and Closed Eyes is a Slenderblog. If not, it would become one.

It seems like it got into the Slenderman stuff awfully quickly, but it has potential. I'll be following this one.

Even though things started quite quickly, I am rather interested by this one :3

Not expecting great things with this one. There's little to no buildup, the character is bland, and the rushed beginning is making me think that it probably won't last particularly long. The creator is going to get bored of it soon.

Of course, the creator might be reading this very thread and might consequently be tempted to prove me wrong now.

I'm liking the direction this is going. I wonder if this will turn into a Fear Mythos thing (considering the mention of "Creatures" plural)

either way The Sect are a really interesting development Very Happy

You clearly haven't read many blogs. The pacing is terrible, the author feigns the protagonist's naivety even though he's blatantly spelling out all the plot points for us, the writing is bland, and I've seen all this shit done so many times already. "Shadowy Mysterious Organization with vague, ambiguous purposes" practically deserves its own square on Slenderblog Bingo by this point.

Congratulations. You've caught my attention. That post wasn't half bad. Here's hoping you can hold it.

Although if you're reading this, author, it might be a good idea to expand on posts from now on a little more. I figured out the reason the pacing seems so fast is because the posts are so short. Going in-depth a bit more would help a lot.

Sorry to double post but we have ourselves some pictures of slendy

well he seems to know slenderman's name and has turned into Navidson...despite being followed by terror incarnate he has allowed his inner photographer to reveal itself Razz

New update!
http://openarmsandclosedeyes.blogspot.ca/2012/04/slender-man-and-mysterious-box.html

Nice little shout out to some of the VLogs plus an examination of the contents of the box Stephen found in the Witch's Castle.

I find it a little weird that he's not too concerned with the fact that Slendy may have set up camp outside his house though...
