I guess that means it's not the Observer like I hoped.

"As above, so below"[edit]


The Magician displaying the Hermetic concept of "As above, so below."
These words circulate throughout occult and magical circles. They are recorded in Hermetic texts, although they originated in the Vedas.[citation needed]

The actual text of that maxim, as translated by Dennis W. Hauck from The Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus, is: "That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above, and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below, to accomplish the miracle of the One Thing."[31] Thus, whatever happens on any level of reality (physical, emotional, or mental) also happens on every other level.

This principle, however, is more often used in the sense of the microcosm and the macrocosm. The microcosm is oneself, and the macrocosm is the universe. The macrocosm is as the microcosm and vice versa; within each lies the other, and through understanding one (usually the microcosm) a man may understand the other.[32]

Heh, maybe it means that Noah himself has to inscribe the symbol below the other symbol, in order to use the key to unlock it.
The symbol above, same symbol below.

I seriously think he's gonna give up and go to the Boardwalk. Or just go there to find SOME kind of clue.

I was rewatching this season over the past month and I realised that we stil haven't truly learned the importance of the Sudoku Cube.

I thought it was jut a red herring but if it were, why would it be fixed now? Will something happen like "Dude Where's My Car?" if Noah opens it?

Does anyone else think that it's important or at least worth exploring?

It's nice to have some activity again. I smell a new video happening within the month.

Jesus christ. Is this kid serious? He can't make a video in what... 6 months?

Yeah the videos are great-I'll give him that. Slender on a plane, shooting at him etc. Pretty good. Beyond good for free internet entertainment...

But.
GTFO if you can't do this in a timely manner. Marble Hornets had a video every few months. YOUR RIPPING THEM OFF-At least keep it going.

He doesn't have obligations to do any of that. He'll have a new video ready when he's ready.

Still, it would be nice if he at least Tweeted more often. The pattern of release a video, go completely silent for five months, make a Tweet that pretty much demands a quick follow-up, and then more months of complete radio silence feels a little nuts to me. If he has time to go to cons, he can take two minutes to fart out a Tweet.

Now, I can already hear cries of "free entertainment!", "you're just an entitled bitch!" and "he doesn't have to do any of this, so shut up!". You're right. He doesn't have to. He chose to. I see nothing wrong with expecting interaction from him when he established this series as audience-interactive, even if it isn't a true ARG. If he didn't want to do it that way, he shouldn't have. If he did want to but found over time that the format didn't work for him anymore, I have an in-game solution: he could declare that he's had his Twitter hijacked one time too many, and won't be using it any more. That would take the pressure off him, preserve immersion, and let us know not to keep waiting for Twitter updates that won't be coming.

Finally, I'd like to point out -just for the sake of accuracy- that aside from the seven month gap between Season one and Season two, Marble Hornets was generally pretty good about updating regularly. There were some hiccups, yes, but I did say 'generally'.

I'm pretty sure "artistically" the choice is to make noah isolate himself because he's having prescient dreams and is like...turning into firebrand or become more...different?

But yeah it basically just comes off as more than kinda lazy and makes the fans fell, I don't want to say snubbed but I'm high and it's almost 5am so,

At least there's more activity than EverymanHYBRID? (social-networking-wise)

EDIT

Second-last tweet on DarkHavert's twitter:

@DarkHarvest00 · Dec 8
I just noticed I haven't really been keeping up with Twitter lately. I'll try to be a little more on top of it.
