They didn't say that Alex was the Ark, though, and Kralie is an anagram of "ark lie". Something to consider.


That's not exactly a new revelation.

Can I put up a theory I just thought of? We don't know what happens to people taken by the Operator, right? And one of the definitions of "ark" is something you use to store things, right? Maybe The Ark is where the Operator takes his victims, and if you find that place you can rescue those people. If Totheark lost someone to the Operator once, he'd have a very strong motivation to find that Ark no matter what he had to do.

The "ark lie" thing? No, and I don't really think it's important. Might be deliberate, but who knows?

Wait the ark discussion is up to the top of the forums again? Did someone find out something relevant?

Alex R Kralie

Wait, wasn't there some theory regarding the Qur'an? Like, on the Marble Hornets Wiki, it said there was some connection between a passage in the Qur'an and Noah's Ark that might have something to do with the proverbial "ark" that ToTheArk might be trying to get to?

For what my invisible opinion is worth, I have always entertained this idea or the memory container idea.

I think Tim went to the ark in entry 65 when he was teleported a few times. The guy Alex killed at the tunnel was laying dead in a dark Forrest area. At least that's what first came to mind when I watched that entry.

Honestly, I think 65 basically almost certainly showed us the "ark", a strange pocket dimention where time either moves very slowly, very fast, or not at all. I feel like this was pretty much thrown in our faces, specifically due to our poor friend Bruce being a fresh corpse despite months of laying dead in "real world time". Also, apparently part of the portal or entrance/exit to this pocket dimention involves being teleported into the middle of some sizeable body of water, I wanna say a lake. For a person who is not a good swimmer, this would almost certainly result in a near drowning, especially if A) the person was not expecting to be teleported to a lake and B) the person is fully clothed. Especially if you are wearing jeans and shoes, it's very difficult to stay afloat. After some period of time, you end up in "the ark", thus named because it saves you from drowning... Or at least that would account for ToTheArk's water imagery and name. If TO teleports you, that's where you go.

65 showed us, at least in my opinion, what TTA has been cryptically trying to explain for months. And if Hoody's "masky state" is TTA, then maybe Hoody doesn't remember but in his fugue state he has similar issues as Tim... Hence why he can only try to hint of those things to Jay while totally bonkers mode, and never just come out and explain.

The Box is the Ark

Beidah said that the box in which Alex put the tapes is the Ark. The box in Entry #71.

What is his middle name then? I don't remember it being mentioned.

I have three theories.


1) Recently, TTA has stopped asking for the ark and is clearly more active and involved. Perhaps he's had some revelation of some sorts, which is why he's showing himself more and more and being more openly active. Perhaps he might even know where the "Ark" is but can't reach it.

2) The "Ark" might mean the container for the memories and such that TO steals from it's victims. Maybe Hoody/TTA was a victim of that and is simply trying to regain his/her 's life.

3) The place where Tim was taken is definitely some form of alternate dimension. Perhaps that place is the "Ark"

It has never been mentioned in the series. The creators have stated at a previous convention panel that his middle name does not begin with "R" in order to stop the theory that Alex's initials spell "ARK".

I was sarcastic.

How do we even know the "ark" is a real thing, and not part of the craziness of TTA. He likes to call everyone a "liar", even if we have no proof otherwise of deceit.

I'm pretty sure it's deliberate, because Kralie isn't a real last name.

Oh okay. Which convention panel was this? Would I able to see it?
