So I'm curious about something:

A) Is there a general Slender Man thread anywhere on SA that doesn't involve too much fan wanking?

And:

B) I'm not too tapped into the whole Slenderverse, but I have watched some of the other vlogs now and then. Does anybody else get the feeling that the community is kind of dying out?

A) No

B) People only have so many stories in their heads. As they run out of ideas to make new content, people start leaving for new things. That's normal for any kind of show.

There are some other slenderman threads here but they fall off the GBS front page quickly because the other series update like twice a goddam year. For better or worse, if you want constant slendychat I refer you to unfiction.com. Be prepared for lots of teenagers and furries

Speaking of ... can anyone spoiler a tl;dr of the last 6-months-to-a-year of Tribe Twelve for me? Been too busy/lazy to keep up.

Dark Harvest has been updating a bit more often, and I really like it, it's got a great atmosphere and is genuinely pretty creepy.

I'm trying to remember what's happened in Tribe Twelve:

There's been a few times Noah's tried to get away from the Observer, so he ran off to a hotel, but the Observer found him and took him again.

Noah got a call from Mary Asher, Milo's mam, which dealt with quite a lot of stuff, like the Nazi soldier's diary that Grandpa Karl found. It turns out that Milo's body was never found, and that's what happens to the victims of Mr Slim (Slenderman?) and some character called Mr Scars. Neither of them knows who Mr Scars is - I think the Observer mentioned the name when he took over Noah's Formspring.

Slenderman showed up on his birthday, he tried to shoot him but it didn't seem to do anything. Slendy rushed towards the camera... and that's where we're up to now.


There's probably a few things I've forgotten though, sorry.

Dark Harvest is a slow burn but the last 5-10 entries they've done have been better than this season of MH. It's definitely worth checking out.

Is there a good way to casually start that conversation?

"Hiya, Tim, how are ya? Nice day, isn't it? Say... do you remember ever wearing a mask and stalking Alex? How 'bout when he smashed your leg with a rock? A tall skinny faceless guy wearing a suit? Any of this ring a bell, buddy?"

Welp this is kind of what we've been waiting for. I'd have to imagine Tim is just going to blow him off and tell him he's crazy and to leave him alone.

And then post an angsty TTA video.

Even if he did that, there'd probably be some awkward, dramatic pause, and Tim would say something like "Why did you link me to my youtube channel, Jay?"

Of all the wonderful side-endings and twists the plot could've taken, that one's still out there, not completely lost yet.

Subtle but delightful.
For safety's sake, I hope they agree to meet in some public, neutral setting. It would be neat if Jay and Tim ended up working together, but somehow I don't see that happening. Assuming Tim's amnesia is legit, it would be interesting to watch his reaction to seeing himself on YouTube.

I have this feeling that Jay is not going to survive this journey he's on. I imagine that Marble Hornets will ultimately end with a long silence from Jay after some bombshell twitter update, and then a final entry from totheark: Jay's camera footage showing his confrontation with Alex and the Operator, in which he unwittingly films his own death, a la Blair Witch/REC.

The other, slightly happier option is this but with Alex instead of Jay, and Jay posting it. Actually at this point I'm almost entirely sure that Alex won't survive this series - although they do not treat death lightly on Marble Hornets, and the only actual one we've seen was an extremely visceral, violent encounter, that's the way I'm seeing it going. Can't wait for 59 :dance:

Well, that's one way of driving the narrative forward. I actually fist-pumped at that.

And now, the best part is, if the Marble Hornets youtube channel is in-universe, god only knows what else Tim found on the internet searching for it. Maybe even this thread. Or the sideburn analysis in the previous threads and elsewhere.

It's good to find out that the sanest cast member so far is insane. Or just sick. Maybe the mask is an immune response.

No, he's spoken directly into the camera before. First time was, I think, the entry where he was planning on quitting MH but then he finds out about his old apartment complex burning down.

Also they need to pursue the "Marble Hornets exists in-universe" line of thought further.
