Christmas card from Firebrand probably.
Be funny but scary if Slendy/Admin HABIT comes in and goes "HO! HO! HO! Motherfucker!"

Audio:
Well for starters, Mr. Scars / Milo sounded like Bev Bighead from Rocko's Modern Life. Listen if you don't believe me, she's the one with the orange hair and green skin.
Could NOT take that seriously even for a moment.
Performance:
Secondly, the acting has reverted to that of the first few episodes. It's unbelievable from every party, and not in a pleasant way. Mary Asher's arm flailing at 11:39, what WAS that? Their dialogue sounds just so half-assed, and it's really sad. The cutting scene was entirely unnecessary. Did we not know that Mr. Scars did this? Self harm in a video like this is offensive. Milo admits that he's Mr. Scars, why show him actually scar himself. In fact, it almost seemed ritualistic and mechanical rather than someone who actually did this. Also, those were some really slow and half-assed cuts. Also, did he really video tape himself cutting? This is not a depressed self-harmer.
Editing:
Slendy was on-par as usual, I'll never be unimpressed with TribeTwelve's take on this Eldritch Abomination. That being said, I hold TribeTwelve to a higher standard when it comes to visual effects and editing because it's generally lacking in so many other aspects. Why was the gunshot sound so comical looking?There was no blood on the floor, and when the perfect-circle of cherry-red-blood spread, it didn't even seem to spread realistically on the white shirt she was wearing. It shined even. Perhaps we can chock this up to slender-distortion? No, that's being generous and blatantly making excuses for choppy work.
Fixation:
Lastly, it seems that the issue with TribeTwelve for me is that instead of having a new idea in every video, the series likes to pick an item or a date and dwell on it over and over and over again. Like in Hotel Halloween or 11.11.11, we were stuck on those dates for months because Noah was busy? And I mean, that's understandable that Adam would be too busy OOG, but why blow dates like these out of proportion and then dwell on them for months and months if you're going to be this busy? This briefcase business is no different. Same with the fact that Mr. Scars kills Mary Asher, like, it was less like the intense scene that it should have been, and was more like waiting for it to just happen already. Good, now this is done and we don't have to dwell on it happening. Though he probably will.
Why do you even bother writing a 'review' if you're pretty much just going to rack on the show as much as possible? Can we please remember that this is not some Hollywood production, this is a young dude making a 'indie style' horror web series. For what he is doing, FOR FREE, and simply to give his audiences some entertainment... I think you need to chill your bun buns a bit. I personally enjoyed this video, I do feel the story is getting a little weak but nevertheless Noah's filming style is still very fresh and interesting.

So, was your question basically ' why write a review if it's going to be negative '?
