Tim's medical documents
analizing and discussing Tim's documents

I'm sure I'm not the only one who was a bit disappointed by Jay's cursory look at the medical documents found in the service tunnel in entry #60. I wanted to create this topic to gather information from these papers that Jay has either over look or purposefully didn't touch base on for dramatic effect.

The first thing right off the bat that could have some significance is his mother's name. Her name is Janet, just something to file away for later reference.

The second thing that i notice on this first document is the witness's name has a full last name to it, meaning that it is a fictional character that they have created. The signature of the witness is also the signature of the doctor that Tim would be handed over to in the annex. Since most of the names in marble hornets are the names of the actual actors, the censor them out. This makes me think that they are soon going to introduce a new character from Tim's past. I cannot read the name signed any further than the initials which i believe to be W.C.

Jay skips completely over the second page of the first document which seems to have some information on Tim's mother. The paused images i get are too blurry for me to make out anything but maybe someone else can.

There is a complete lack of a father in Tim's documents. I want to think that his dad is dead or something like that but it's all a complete guess.

Tim's age in 1995 i don't know for sure. i can only assume that it's some where in the area of 7-10 years old. It's been suspected that that Alex has lived in Rosswood before and that his birthday-party was there and interrupted by the operator. Tim has for a fact lived in Rosswood. i think that Alex and Tim were friends as children and that Tim was at that party. The appearance of the operator had some effect on them both, giving Tim these head aches and Alex something else, something driving him to do all of this. The birthday party took place on April 4th 1991 and the birth day boy is i think 5 years old looking at the number of candles.this would give Alex a definite age but not Tim.

I have to again say that Jay skips over a lot of different check lists through the course of the video. if anyone can get any information off of those pages than post it here.

In some of the redactions (most notably the on time which Tim ran away) it is possible to still make out what they crossed out. The angle at which the light hits the paper can make a sort of silhouette of what was written.
I can't make any of it out but if you can post it here.

The progress note has nearly all of it redacted except for the date and two check boxes. one was a write in response to a question we don't know but the other has a response and question. Jay moves the paper around and the camera is to zoomed out for me to understand what it says but if you do post it.

Something i discovered through pausing the entry #60.5 at certain points is that Tim has/had a vision problem. The document at 2:30 makes this clear whenever it has a check next to adequate for his vision. There is also a check next to glasses/contacts.

As for the suicide risk form, the photo, and the folder i have no idea what they might mean. I hope to see what you might think these things mean.

(right now going off to bed, but promises to give more in-depth insight on medical forms tomm eventing because I have a bit of a psychiatric hospital/treatment obsession.... XD)

Well, a suicide risk form, I think all we really need from that is the fact that he was suicidal at one point. (Wonder why they didn't have an action plan/anti-suicide pact, but I think it said the pact was given orally.)

I don't think the redacted stuff is important, I took it more as "the creators want to keep mystery and it will be revealed eventually/don't really give a fuck what's on the forms because it's not too important to the plot, just nicpicking" (but, he, this is uF. nitpick is what we do!)


There was a lot of analysis of the forms on the Entry thread too though. Not getting into the whole "omg no new threads" boat ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. I AM NEUTRAL. -waves flag-, just pointing out that there is also stuff there.

Not only is there a thread for the entry, but you can also read the entire transcript of the documents at marblehornets.wikidot under the entry 60.5. It would be in your interest to read that transcript, then post your theories in entry 60.5 (since that entire video was about these documents and more people are likely to keep up with it) and you can just link to the transcript when you need to

thank you for posting here. as you can see that was my first post and i didn't know about the transcript. i had looked for a 60.5 discussion but i couldn't find one. i'll look for it and post my theories there.
