Heh Aeliott, you think your bad, you should see me on after traveling on a red eye flight waiting for the next plane....It's scary stuff and as my friends have testified, scarier then anything in Marble Hornets.

Am I the only one that thinks the concept that "pills" stop the Maskyness is a little far-fetched?


It's actually not that far-fetched, compared to many other stuff.

Well, Entry #60.5 mentioned Tim was taking seizure meds. Now, let's look at the other times Tim's had seizures:

- Entry #18: Jay's stolen Tim's pills prior to this. Tim steals them back in the next entry, and then doesn't have a seizure again until...

- This entry. Once again, someone's taken Tim's pills from him. As soon as the seizure is beginning, Tim goes for his pills.

Conclusion: The pills are seizure meds, just like the ones mentioned in Entry #60.5. And, if it turns out Tim has gone all Masky in this entry, we can plausibly assume that the seizures do indeed trigger whatever Masky is, probably some weird fugue state, and by extension, the pills do suppress Masky.

In this video, when Hoody walks over to Tim's bedroom door, he aims his camera down and to his right, thus pointing it at two framed objects that are leaning against the wall.

I felt like the camera focused on these objects for unusually long, almost as if the creators intended for us to see them. Did Tim purchase the paintings from the antique shop? Who knows...

Perhaps painting is some kind of art therapy for Tim and he sold/gave them to the shop. I'm not sure if someone suffering from seizures would neeed art therapy, but he could just like painting.

Also Jay causing his own assault is deliciously poetic, similar to him and Masky trading the same knife over the series.

Holy crap.
I think you found out Tim W_____'s last name. Tim Wright.

Paintings?


edit: Also, that quote pyramid is retarded and it makes me glad I didn't waste my time reading through this thread.


Most of this thread is nonsense. Although there were a lot of weird things in this entry, like those paintings and that out of place hallway thing that I posted earlier and is now lost somewhere in the nonsense. The paintings are interesting because they look perhaps unpainted? although you can only see the sides. As an artist I always paint the sides of my canvas and I never leave a painted painting just lying on the floor. The paintings probably won't be a major detail though seeing where the story is going. but who knows?


Let me clarify a bit: We saw a few twitpics of strange paintings in the Antique Shop, when Jay snuck in there between seasons. There's also the painting of a forest fire that we see in Brian's house back in season 1.

In this video, when Hoody walks over to Tim's bedroom door, he aims his camera down and to his right, thus pointing it at two framed objects that are leaning against the wall. I suspect they're paintings. And they're not blank, but rather facing the other way. I felt like the camera focused on these objects for unusually long, almost as if the creators intended for us to see them. Did Tim purchase the paintings from the antique shop? Who knows...

Another tidbit I noticed: Tim's jacket hanging on the doorknob is reminiscent of Tim's mask hanging on a doorknob in Entry #23.


Oh ok, poetic film making. I could only see the sides and they seemed not painted to me, but yes that doesn't mean nothing is painted on them. Perhaps it's a minimalist drawing of a perfectly mathematical circle with an x through it. That aside, I do like to see them keeping their smaller themes throughout the story

...also the twins? Did you see what he did? Masky is just one of the Wright brothers from the past. The ark is a flying machine that makes it so Slendy can't reach you because while he may be able to stretch he'd probably not fit on that tiny machine with other people on it. o_o

I wanted to post the same thing a couple of hours ago but was stopped because of a few questions I couldn't answer: If the pills keep Tim from turning in Masky, why did Masky break into Jay's house to steal the meds back? Did Tim just dress up as Masky for anonymity? Then why did he make time to look at the camera like a creep if he was only there to steal back his pills?

That entry (or these entries) came as a total surprise to me. After the recent cheap scares on twitter, I thought that's probably it, the twitter posts were fillers and they still need a while for the next upload. And now there it is, and I already missed a lot of the discussions around it. ^^'

Why didn't he see the guy in the closet, and if he did, there wasn't much of a reaction.


He'd just had a seizure. He may have been kinda distracted.


Concerning the first thing above: I totally thought the same! XD

About the closet: I don't know if somebody pointed that out by now (I skipped 20 pages in the middle as I'm low on time), but I don't think Hoody is in the closet. Actually, I never even assumed that. I always had the impression Hoody leaves after positioning the camera in the closet, and returns afterwards. And there are very clear signs of him entering from outside if you look at the door (and especially the blind) at 5:33 - 5:40.
[EDIT: That's the time from Entry#61, in "Entry" it's at 5:13 - 5:20.]

Somehow he managed to get past the blind without moving them that much when leaving the room before, but I still don't have a doubt he left the room. That's why he positions the camera in the closet like that to begin with (instead of actively filming).

You need to remember that Masky had a seizure in Brian's house as well. While some people may interpret it differently, I see it as proof that being Masky does NOT stop the seizures. Thus, Masky HAD to get the pills back; you can't undertake nefarious deeds in constant fear of having a seizure!

Well they're primarily seizure meds, and Masky could not have enjoyed that seizure in Entry #18. So Tim would have motivation to steal back the pills even as Masky. Also, whose to say Masky likes being himself? He very well may prior the blissful ignorance of being Tim.

Now that I look closely,

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hoody/TTA appears to be male. There goes the "Sarah is TTA" theory.

This is slightly off-topic about the seizure meds, and I'm not sure if it has been said before, but the image when TTA says "Look what you have done" is Tim having his seizure. The moving "blob" on the left is Tim's head, while the stationary line on the right is the bedpost.

So how did TTA manage to get footage that close to Tim? And why is it so distorted?

EDIT: And, again, there is a zoomed in view of Tim's face a few seconds later.

EDIT2: It looks to me more like Hoody came back in through the window. Which makes sense, considering how it would be near impossible to hide in that closet.

I assume totheark zoomed it in while editing the video, which probably has something to do with why it's so distorted.

What we are watching is edited--not raw footage,you can use after effects to create many visual enhancements after the fact.

Now--this is not to you,but just in general:For me--if a fictional story starts out with a premise of an inhumanly tall,slender,faceless being in a business suit stalking poeple and apparently able to cause time/space fuckery--believing that some pills can effect or change a certain mental/physical symptom is not a very far leap at all.
