Re: Code and Theories
Possible solution to Null and theories on Entry 83.

Hey Everyone, first time posting, but I've really been giving some thought to both Null and Entry 83. I think I have possible solution for the code and some theories based on the new entry.So to start off with the solution. The code in Null is:

IA(Operator Symbol)NR
RPRYA
SIMHT
75EBX
84129
MRWIT

This code flashes 7 times before distorting with what seems to be Hoody's face to left of it. Now looking at the numbers sequentially from all the lines in the code (1,2,x,4,5,x,7,8,9) the 3 and 6 are missing. Well, the 3rd letter in the first line is the operator symbol, which seems pretty significant. So take the 3rd character from each line of code and we're left with (operator symbol, R, M, E, 1, W). So now there's the issue of the 6. Well there are only 5 characters to each line of code, however, there are 6 lines of code. So the 3rd character from the 6th line is null (which is the W). When you unscramble the remaining characters you are left with the message "1 MORE" (the operator symbol obviously being the O in MORE). When you pair that with the description of the video, I believe TTA is trying to say that there is one more location left.

Now my theory, after watching Entry 83 and with what I've seen in Null, is as follows:

Null seemed to be a sort of goodbye. The code flashed 7 times and then distorted with Hoody's face next to it. It's as if Hoody "nullified" himself by letting himself fall off the ledge in Entry 83. Which would make him the 7th person to have seemingly died and been taken away to the "Dark World". The 7 victims being Sarah, Seth, Brian, Amy, Jessica, that guy Alex attacked, and Hoody. Why Hoody would do it is unknown, but it seemed as if he was trying pass off everything to Tim. Like "Here take the mask and then you can have your pills", but Tim rejected the mask at first. So after a prolonged, acid-trip like chase, Hoody let's himself be killed and Tim gets the tape, the pills, and is forced back into Masky state. Hoody's torch has been passed.

In Null, TTA eluded to knowing Tim's secret for years, however, the were things he needed to "See" and "Hear". We, and more importantly Tim, saw a lot in Entry 83. I'm pretty sure he'll see and hear even more from that tape. But I think TTA's Quadrant entry relates to this as well. If you watch that video it's imagery seems remarkably similar to Entry 83, with frantic jumps between different locations and images of faces and people ghosting over the footage throughout the video. He taunts "Who Am I . . .I Am The Third". Now I know folks debate this, but I believe Brian was the 3rd victim. I also believe him to be Hoody. Now how can he be a victim twice, because as Hoody he is no longer Brian, he is "Null", Empty, nothing. Honestly, I'd be pretty disappointed if we didn't get to know for sure who Hoody really was, but I believe it almost doesn't matter. Whoever Hoody was is irrelevant, he's not anybody anymore. He's distorted and destroyed like Alex, but in a slightly different way. Because even though Alex doesn't wear a mask, he most certainly is not himself anymore. The mask just protects what little of that former identity is left. Besides, I think the 4 parts of the quadrant are all that remains now. . .Tim, Alex, The Operator, and the last location. Anyway, this just my thoughts, I look forward to some feedback and the rest of the series. Entry 83 was awesome!
You for got Jay. He was the 7th. Other than that, nice work. Very plausible.

I may be completely way off here, and I'm afraid I don't have the images to hand, but when the clip of Tim sat at the bottom of the ladder to the attic plays he seems to be in a very similar position to Jay in TTA's 'Return' and I thought it was worth mentioning. (Similar things are happening too with someone moving around but ignoring the character)

Anyone else thinking this or is it just a coincidence?

Amazing entry, provided Hoody's now crippled self gets unmasked next entry. I'm not tolerating that many teases otherwise.

Caught this frame at 6: 20. Looks like The Operator is running at the end of that college hall. I don't think it could be anyone else, look how long that arm is.

If that really is the operator that picture is gonna haunt my dreams. Slenderface was scary enough when he was slow!

Is anyone else wondering why the effects look so TTA-ish? Oransel already pointed out that there some references to previous TTA. I just checked back with #65, and there is a huge difference. #65 – which I think is a just point of reference for trips like that – contains „only" strange cuts to strange places, with some „normal" operator distortion. In #83 the cuts look almost like a TTA video. With overlayed faces, text appearing in between frames, messages are being placed and all that stuff. The hell, why would „your fault" appear on the camera, for just 2 seperate frames, if it weren't for some TTA edit? Do we have any other instance of this sort of text appearing on footage from Jay or Tim?

And while I'm talking about „your fault" … assuming that this is just another TO-trip … why would TO place Jay – or his remains – at a place that either IS Tim's house or at least looks like Tim's house, on top of some infamous drawings, drawings that are normally drawn by either Alex or Hoody. We never had any TO abduction taped with that much „communication" attempts, if I am correct.

So maybe it would be better to assume that Hoody drew those? But then I might ask, where did he place them? Did he went back to Tim's house after the events of #80/81 and dumped them there, anticipating that TO would teleport a seemingly dead Jay right on top of it before TO would then teleport Tim also to that room? And if he did, why exactly did he not only came back to the campus to give Tim his Masky mask, but then only returned back to Tim's home to...do what exactly? This doesn't make sense.

Therefore, the best guess would be to assume that Tim and Hoodys chase continued with all this warping and teleporting, and Hoody was as taken aback about being at Tim's house as Tim was. But then it would be unlikley that Hoody prepared that drawings for Tim.

Hence, and this will be my conclusion, either there is still another person messing around (Alex? Who also filmed the Hoody-Haymaker?) or those drawings are a communication attempt by the Operator. The last assumption would also incline that TO has been involved in the "editing" of the TTA videos more than I ever assumed. Because if neither the unknown other, nor Hoody is responsible for the "messages" throughout #83, then it leaves only TO to be responsible for them.

WOW. What a fucking entry. Balls out. Can't WAIT to read everything you guys have come up with.

This is fucking spectacular.

Join the fucking club. Evil or Very Mad


Anyways, Tim and Hoody fight through the Slenderverse, Tim discovers Jay (dead or alive is yet to be determined), Hoody gets knocked out from falling off the ledge, and Tim gets both his pills and a new tape to watch.

Please don't be dead, Jay. Crying or Very sad

Also, wouldn't it be weird if this whole thing ended in an Evangelion "Congratulations!" type of way? Laughing

A bit offtopic, regarding the "end" of MH ;)

But if TO's a hallucination, we shouldn't be able to see him.


Well if it's caused by the tapes, we've all watched them, too. This is supposed to be set in our present time and reality so we should be hallucinating as well.

I think Hoodie might be Sarah

5:49 I think I heard a female's voice, sounding like she was kind of in pain when she made that fall. Hoody could be a woman. Plus, there's something different now. We now have a better view at his full figure, which seems to resemble a woman, even with those baggy clothes.

I think it might be Sarah. In ToTheArk's Video there is 'Regards (a bunch of code'. The code had 5 letters each. Only two people have shown up with five letters in their name. Brian and Sarah. We never saw what happened to Sarah, so chances are she might be the one in the Hoody.

Isn't that just the sound of Tim gulping down the pills? And I'm still not convinced Hoody's female. As I said in earlier post, laying completely flat like that makes your stomach go in a bit, which could make your chest look bigger. And even then their chest isn't sticking out THAT much.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but I think the stairs at 6:17 are from Tim's house and that looks like Alex or Jay coming down the stepladder from the attic. No idea where this came from or how it makes sense though.

ETA: This entry is going to make my timeline implode. Grr.

I actually had to pause and take a breather some time around the 5 minute mark. Haven't had to do that with an entry since I started watching about 2 years ago.

Did anyone else's heart break just a little when Tim heard a noise and immediately called out for Jay?

And on that note, when Hoody first appeared there I couldn't tell it was him; I thought it was Alex! Shocked


Me too!! My heart really did break when Tim, withered and desperate, called out for Jay. And then my heart broke again when I thought "OMG IF IT'S ALEX HE'S DEAD OH GOD OH 'S' WORD."




On another note:

WHAT THE HECK DID I JUST WATCH?!

This is an amazing entry! Tim got:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

-his pills back so he can work a while longer until he gets refills!
-a special edition premium jackpot tape from Hoody Inc.!
-three chances to reveal Hoody!
-a DEAD Hoody! Shocked (It honestly looked like to me that he killed himself..."lead me to death"...."lead me to the ark.")
-and hope...to go on. Or at least a chance to beat Alex and END him and his tyranny!


This entry is just...omg Surprised Shocked

Thats what I thought, too. It reminded me of when Hoody was in the house and saw Alex coming down that same ladder.

I'm more worried that's going to happen now. There won't be any answers or closure, and we'll all be completely Lost.
