 About some ''loose ends''
Discussing some loose ends...

You know:

1- I've never figuered out who filmed Entry #29 (I think it could've been Jessica but i'm not sure) And i can't explain what it means since we only see the rock that Alex took to beat that guy, but you see Alex beating up the guy in future entries. (This may be me messing up the timeline too)

2- I think there was an entry where Jay finds a bullet case (And never mentions again), and we never got an explanation for that. My assumption is that Alex shot Sarah and drowned her in some lake. Because if you remember TTA's Deluge, you hear a girl calling ''Alex'' and in TTA's Broadcast you kinda gaze upwards from underwater to another person (Wich i believe is Alex) Also in TTA's Reminder you can hear at some point in the video, someone walking on some sort of swamp. (Just my assumption) ''You can also see in many of TTA's videos that flashing ''S'' (It could mean Seth too, but i think it would fit better for Sarah). What i'm trying to point here is that this could be a good reason to asume that TTA MAY, i repeat, MAY be Sarah.

3- At the end of Season 1, entry #26 you see a person that looks a lot like Hoodie, but with some sort of ''Skull Mask'' wich i've never seen in Hoodie in the entries that came after that.

4- Who is the guy that Alex killed with the rock? It doesn't seem to be someone that i saw in the previous entries...

5- What is the meaning of enttry #37? It seems so unfitting to the series unless there is something in the video i did not notice at all....

If you can help me with those it would be great!

1. We don't know.

2. Jay found the bullet casing, but then lost it, speculating that Tim could have taken it the night he entered Jay's apartment.

3. No further data on the skull mask. Could be anyone, even Tim.

4. According to the twitter, Jay attempted to find the identity of that guy, but was unsuccesful, as though the man had never existed at all.

5. That Alex was being followed by the Operator since he was a child.

Actually "Bruce" (the tunnel murder guy) was seen in the prior entry as jay goes back to his car. This means that bruce went actively looking for alex, unless alex was sitting there for a really long time

Maybe he saw jay running out of the woods and figured he'd go see what's up?

Bruce is ToTheArk! If you all want to believe that dead people like Brian and Seth are ToTheArk, then I get to believe that Bruce is ToTheArk!

Prove to me Brian and Seth are dead first. "Bruce"'s head was bludgeoned in with a heavy block of concrete, repeatedly. The only "proof" we have for Brian is a limp body (note that unconscious people are also limp) being dragged somewhere. And Seth is as ambiguously disposed of. Very little vagueness or ambiguity in "Bruce"'s death.

First you hate vehemently on Sarah for no reason. Then you insist just as vehemently (if less hatefully) that Brian and Seth have perished with no proof whatsoever to back up your claim. We don't know what the Operator does with people, but it stands to reason that if Tim, Alex and Jay aren't dead that we have stronger proof for Brian and Seth living after their Operator encounters. After all, we can only verify one person as dead. The rest have only been exposed to the Operator. 3 of those we can confirm are still alive (or at least not dead from direct contact with the Operator, if Alex has indeed died). So we have 3 confirmed dead, and 3 missing in action. I see no proof of death yet in this series for those other characters, including Jessica and Amy.

EDIT: If I didn't enjoy responding to you so much, I would have long ago ignored anything with your name by it. I enjoy bantering with you despite your belligerent clinging to unproven assumptions.

You seem very stringent about what you consider proof. Yes, he could just have been unconscious, but it really doesn't seem likely that Alex (who we know perfectly well is a psycho killer) would knock him unconscious and then let him live. (Tim did survive similar treatment, but Entry 57 suggests that this was unintentional and Alex tried unsuccessfully to finish the job.) Add to that, it's been years since filming and nobody's seen Bryan since. This isn't for lack of trying. The first time Jay visited "da haus" was because an anonymous tip (!) said he could find Bryan there; no one else seemed to know where he was. The house had been long-abandoned by the time Jay arrived.

This is one of those things that I think could go either way. You guys have summed up the evidence pretty well: (1) Seth and Brian disappeared after being attacked by Alex. (2) Brian's body was dragged off screen, either unconscious or dead. (3) Tim survived a similar attack from Alex. (4) Alex almost certainly killed Bruce.

Those are the main points, right? I can see both interpretations, really. I'm starting to like a hybrid theory that depends on resurrection, but it gets far-fetched very quickly when you get into that kind of thing. My current working theory is that Alex didn't finish the job with Seth or Brian, just as he didn't with Tim, if only because it gives them more places to go with the story.

The skull mask always makes me wonder. Like is it even a supposed to be a mask? I really want to know the meaning behind it. Pretty much that whole portion of Entry #26 is so weird to me. Those other short clips before Amy starts filming are just so mysterious.

that "thing" that i'm pretty sure isn't even a mask has only appeared once in the entire series and has not showed up again. i think it was just some little blip of something that totheark sticks into his videos for the creepy factor, but alex is presumed to have made this video and alex is probably not totheark

Assuming that totheark is one of the cast members, perhaps the person gradually changed into totheark?

Say, for example, Brian is totheark. After his "death" in Entry #51, he's still friends with Alex but is starting to show strange symptoms. Then he starts making a creepy video with Alex's camera. Alex confiscated the camera and decided to jump town to escape him, and possibly the operator. The tape stayed with Alex, and Amy later found it on his camera. She taped over most of it, but the first few seconds remain, which is what we see in Entry #26.


As for Entry #29, I think it'll turn out to be totheark. I think it was originally supposed to be Jay or Alex, but due to possible rewrites, it no longer fits in the timeline with one of them being the cameraman. TTA must've taken Alex's chest camera for a joyride, returned it, and then snuck the footage, labeled "noentry" onto Jay's laptop. Not sure about the bloody shirt, but maybe Slendy took the man to his netherworld to devour his flesh, and then returned the clothes and blood to their original place. Or maybe Masky shot and killed Alex, and then the Operator "undid" Alex's wishes upon death, thus returning the body to it's original place.

I like that theory. I'm going to have to ponder that one. "Entry #26" being attributed to Alex has been one of the more troubling mysteries in the series, I think. I'm mildly surprised that the "Seth is cameraman; Seth is TTA" people haven't been floating this one the whole time.

I'm going to let you in on a trade secret: Nothing proves death like a corpse.

If you just have a person who's been missing for a while, yeah, that's good reason to be suspicious that he or she is dead. But it isn't proof. Sometimes, people just choose to disappear.

I hope Entry #29 is revisited. Who's filming? Why is there a bloody shirt there? We know it's probably Bruce's shirt, but why was it taken off of him? Why was the video file on Jay's hard drive?

I have a feeling it will never be explained, which kind of pisses me off.

Really?

If you want to discuss who is TTA guys there is a thread about it. What i want to know here is about the beggining of entry #26 (Especially the skull masky), who was filming Alex all that time and who the hell filmed entry #29

No one knows dude. That's why it's being discussed up there along with the "who is tta" bit.
