6th May Twitter Responses

## What this event tells us

* Simon is playing the victim as to what has happened to Lara
* Simon is trying to blame us (the watcher) as to what has happened to Lara
* Simon claims we've played a game

## The 1st Tweet

 The first tweet that prompted this event was made by Simon from the *iamsophiereal* Twitter account. Activity on the twitter account wasn't out of the ordinary as there was a YouTube video posted to the *i am sophie* YouTube Channel the day before.

.

## The 1st Response

 Like previous tweets, users sent response messages to the *iamsophiereal* Twitter account but, unlike previous times some people got responses.

In an attempt to save the privacy of the users' who are **not** related to the ARG their profile pic and username has been removed.

## The 2nd Response

It was speculated that the people who did get a response were individuals who were very active on the I am Sophie fan-made Discord server. It is unknown why these specific tweets were picked for Simon to respond to and why we were only getting responses now after almost a week of no activity.

## The 3rd Response

The tweets Simon was replying to were mostly negative, saying he had ruined Lara and it was all his fault. In retaliation, he was trying to blame us (the viewer) saying we were the ones to blame for all of this.

## The 4th Response

If the tweets were positive and kind towards Simon he would ask for more time saying there was more to the story that we were unaware of. This is a hint for future videos to come from either the *iamsophie* YouTube Channel or the *iamsophiereal* Twitter account - two account Simon may have access to.

## The 5th Response

Even though Simon was previously trying to blame us for what happened to Lara he is taking some of the blame upon himself, saying he is beyond redemption for what he did.

This response only brings more questions for the situation - did he know the possible aftermath when he sent Lara the video game? Or is he only sorry now because he got caught and people are calling him out on it.

.

## The 6th Response

In this response, Simon claims again that we have played some sort of game. It is unknown what specifically he is referring to in this - is the YouTube Channel videos the game and us watching them is "playing" or does he think we played the video game we saw Lara play in the live streams.

.

.

## The 7th Response

In this response, Simon claims that Lara is watching all of these interactions & everything that goes on the social media accounts, such as the YouTube account, the Instagram account & the Twitter account. This could mean he is being monitored & can't say too much before the line is cut dead & control is potentially taken.

.

.

## The 8th Response

In this response, the Twitter user criticises Simon on whether he remembers playing in the game & in response, he replies about if they remember playing it. After this, the Twitter user queries him further on the matter & how he knew. He replies that he only knew now. This could, in turn, mean that no one has any memory of playing the game & that we were playing the game, whilst watching Lara's livestreams.

## The 9th Response

This reply once again suggests that we have already played the game, through watching the disc presumably left by Lara for Simon to find & to help her out of the mess she ended up in.

## The 10th Response

This was the last reply that Simon or someone else who took control replied to. The question could have possibly broken the 4th wall & caused someone else to take over after too many questions were asked potentially. A word of note is that the reply is in all lower case, the same kind of format Sophie used to use.

## .The Final Tweet

This was the final tweet in this event, it wasn't a response to a user but it was similar to the previous response. The use of caps may show that Simon was getting angry at our responses - a mixture of blaming him, wanting to help or taking this as a joke
