And this is the reason why I feel bad about myself.

I have neither the time, nor patience, to develop something like this.
I probably could've thought of it, but dear god...
It looks good.

Well done.

Time to upload the complex timeline of 79/80/81

Here's the complete timeline of 78-81, as I see it:

The first part of 81 and the entirety of 78 took place on the same day. Jay arrives at the college the next day and all of the events of 79 take place. All of the chestcam footage of Tim attempting to open the locked door, getting under the tunnel area, opening the door, and exploring the manhole when the large noise happens on this day too, as it syncs up to Jay's footage. Tim attempts to open the manhole when Jay leaves to Benedict Hall. As Jay waits by Benedict Hall, Tim eventually finds the crowbar and getting his way into Benedict Hall happen the next day. When Tim sees Alex on the top floor, Jay starts filming Entry #80. Jay's footage continues as Tim's corrupts. When Jay stops coughing in the photographic studio, the chestcam footage resumes as Tim runs to the car. Alex shoots Jay and Tim reacts to the gunshot heard in the distance briefly before coughing more and blacking out. Alex gets in by now and picks up the camera, as shown in #80. A few hours later, Tim wakes up and the last part of Entry #80 happens.

That's pretty much it Led. At least that explanation makes sense to me.

Phew, updated as best I can! Please let me know if you see any mistakes.

BTW, if anyone who's good with styles etc wants to help make this timeline look nicer then please get in touch. I would love to have this made into a poster when the series ends, and right now it's not much good for that!

I've been playing around with the timeline infographic and seeing what happens when I filter the scenes based on who appears in the scenes, and who films them. As an example, I've attached the infographic to show what happens on-camera from Jessica's point of view. As you can see, she had very little contact with Jay before agreeing to go the hotel with him! Would these kinds of timelines be interesting/useful for people to look at?

[Ascalondion]

Well, it's definetly a nice thing to have. Depending on how much work it is to create those, I would want them.

(Was a bit surprised to see how little involvement Jessica had before Alex decided to kill her too. T'was bascially just a phone call from Jay.

Alex doesn't take the gun from Jessica's body. When Hoody attacks Alex, she freaks out, drops the gun, and picks up Alex's flashlight instead.

I think you're forgetting that Jessica was holding the camera with her right hand. She has the gun in her left hand, doesn't, and then she has the flashlight in her left hand, but the camera's in her right hand the whole time.

Maybe she tucked it in her pants (giggity) or a pocket or something... Though I thought she dropped it too. Now that I think about it, though, that would generate a continuity issue wouldn't it? Hmm. Well, a lot of people are afraid of guns and don't even want to hold them, so dropping it isn't absurd, but still... Hmm.

Also its hard to say how much she was involved as Amy/Alex's roommate prior to 26... Though probably not much/not at all. Hmm.

Yes aidansean, these are very interesting. I wanna see the timeline of specifically footage Alex filmed. I don't think we've ever really understood what his motivations are at all, certainly not for sure at least.

[aidansean]

Here's the infographic for the footage Alex filmed. I've also put the other infographics up on my website. link. The last we saw from Alex's camera, he had just killed Bruce. I wonder what he's been up to since...
