Shut up and stop watching then. You'll have nothing to complain about. Also, do better. Show us how much better you are than the EMH crew, because their series has captured a huge group of people.
Stop your fucking opining. Or at least keep it off topic.

This is the worst argument ever next to "it's free, you can't complain". Desist.

Anyway, I'm not so sure MH is consistent any more either. They took over a month to release a less than 5 minute video shot in a main actor's house with two main actors who regularly see each other and the video featured minimal distortion. I thought at first maybe the next video was what really took so long and that was coming soon but with no MH updates, a new video on the OOG channel and a giant post about GMX, I'm sure we're in for another barely-under-or-a-month wait.

Keep in mind that that other projects have been or will be able to monetize their efforts when things get to be a lot more work and time than they originally expected. EMH won't have that luxury. Money is a helluva good motivator.

Well shit. I wasn't expecting this. I feel so bad for Vinny. You can tell he never wanted any of this to affect Lexi.

Habit was strangely entertaining for a murderous entity (like always).

Wonder when the guests are showing up...

It seems very unlike HABIT to give someone a pep talk and help him feel better about himself.
Could he actually be a nice guy underneath centuries of gleeful serial killing and excellent taste in music?


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Nah.

Just so we're clear...Lexi was killed a while ago, right? Or was it recently? It's hard to tell from that video, and I don't remember when those flashbacks took place

I could not remember details either,so here is what I found on the wiki:

Quote:
Lexi is a side character with no known video appearances. She was first mentioned in One step forward, two steps back when Jeff and Vince visited the Public Library to look up information on Dr. Corenthal. Vince mentions that he had gotten the telephone number of the librarian. As of HALLOWEEN HANGOVER it appears than she and Vince have been dating since. The events of that video, however, leave her current whereabouts and status unknown, although the description of Twenty-four months suggests she is dead. In "A summoning" HABIT confirms that Lexi is dead, and suggests that he may have had something to do with it.

So...HABIT is helping Vinnie?

And also...

Vinnie is The Guardian.

I don't know how much people pay attention to this place anymore, but here is a thing I realized awhile ago:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
OKAY so Dixie_Wolf and I were talking about the new video, and out of nowhere my mind decided to finally put together the infamous "pint of blood" thing and the radioactive blood thing. I don't know why it took us so long to put those two things together, but yeah. I guessed (I think correctly) that HABIT had asked Ryan for a pint of his blood to test it. I'm thinking Ryan probably didn't have the radioactive stuff.
Okay, then my brain put in the whole TRIALS part of it. Even though he never asked us Rabbits for our blood, he did ask Ryan in the context of the TRIALS.
Another jump and my brain reminded me that we now know for a fact Vin is the GUARDIAN. What does that make Jeff? He really doesn't seem to fit the VOYEUR description. GUARDIAN and FIREBRAND fits Vinnie and Evan perfectly, so what about that "we are the VOYEUR" idea we've been having?
Yes, and no.
HABIT was talking to Vin about people on the "inside" and people on the "outside".
What if HABIT had been unsure if Ryan was on the inside, so he put him through the trials? When he proved ultimately inconsequential, Ryan was killed via Rake-O-Gram. The trial that was his undoing was the blood. HABIT promised Vin there will be more blood, as well, and there are very few options for living characters.
"THE VOYEUR SHALL WATCH FROM AN EMOTIONAL DISTANCE, INSISTING UPON MAINTAINING THEIR STRENGTH"
What if this is the point of the TRIALS? We figured HABIT was looking for something special from the audience, the audience who is for all intents and purposes, "in the fold"- but not just anyone. What if HABIT is looking for someone specific, someone on the "inside" among us, more specifically, the VOYEUR?

My guess would have to be TheGreenFeathers, but who knows at this point.

A couple of things:

1) I actually really liked HABIT in this one, his message seemed oddly coherent.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You are GUARDIAN, but you can't do your job if you spend all your time worrying about the people you failed to save... you are fighting asshats with godly amounts of power, and you are blaming yourself? Get over it. I will teach and show you things, but they are dark things, and you cannot blame yourself, you just need to keep on GUARDIANing...
Is almost lovecraftian.

2) Stupid thought, but what if we are the VOYEUR, be it EMH, MH, TT or any of the other ARG's, we are this mysterious watcher, oft privy to outside info the characters themselves may not have. We observe them from the safe distance of our computer screens. Don't know, maybe there is some hermity character waiting in the wings, but this could be OUR role, the watcher.

Taking it one step further:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I was wondering why HABIT wouldn't just test the remaining seven for radiation, to see who it is. Maybe he doesn't know, or maybe it hasn't been decided. What if the winner becomes the Voyeur? We know that the trials continue so long as there's at least two rabbits.

"YOU HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF: WHAT ARE YOU ALL PLAYING FOR, TO BEGIN WITH?"

"IF I AM SUCCESSFUL, IT WILL BE YOU WHO DESIRES EXCLUSION."

I think you might have figured out the "prize".

Scarily valid point. Those words never felt threatening until now!
