JSE Ego Timeline Masterlist

A chronological (& consistent) series of hints, foreshadowing, theories, videos, lore- both canon & speculative- that may (or may not) have built up to a major event at the end.

Unfortunately, they don’t include a few big ego projects like CHASE or Argentum Inanis, as they were really stand-alone vids.

Summer Antipocalypse (June- August 2017)

Glitchmas (November- December 2017)

May Egopocalypse (2018)  

The First Phase (August- December 2018)

The JSECU: Chase Brody (May- November 2022)

Bonus (a certain phrase referenced far too frequently & I hope to never come back to update ever again).

The Jacksepticeye Cinematic Universe: Chase Brody

The 2022 Revival with the return of the JSE egos & newly established universe. Ready or not, for a 5th time buckle up once again.

And here we go!

May 20th

Jack himself on Discord promises there will be new ego material;

May 22nd

On JSETWT (a community Twitter page), Jack also responds to a post about missing Chase & saying that “he’ll be back”.

.

May 23rd

Jack makes this post on JSETWT;

Admitting how daunting it was to attempt to do it by himself, and how he has received help from our own @turquoisemagpie​ (referred to as Magpie from here on out)!

.

May 24th

We noticed a change of an iconic title from “Dark Silence” to “What do you want from me?”; a direct quote from Chase in that ending.

Which may not be a coincidence when compared to previous titles.

(Also important to note is we got both Jack’s & Magpie’s own ego tier lists, something other community members were doing.)

.

June 4th

In this video (& this one, ~2 weeks later) we get some ego updates.

.

June 9th

This intro is a little suspicious/ glitchy with similar Quit The Game to Win vibes.

.

June 20th

In a reblog from Magpie, we see for the 1st time (but not the last) a strange symbol; (•:) It appears again in a Code Guide, & how a something very similar looks to be engraved in the orb from Argentum Inanis.

.

June 22nd

Over on Twitter, a page called I.R.I.S is discovered. 

Speculation explodes about who they are, a poster about working with them, how their symbol being an eye is cause for worry, a question about superhero powers, an approaching 100th anniversary, & that IRIS (something written in the spellbook from Argentum Inanis) was an acronym all along.

Then later, the same symbol is added to their page.

.

June 26th

They Are Here... l 3 Scary Games is uploaded. The intro & other moments in the video shows a security camera perspective in the recording room, & a septiceye is found during a glitch effect.

Later, the title & thumbnail change; revealing an eye & lights not there before;

During a fun community Theory Stream (nothing official), Magpie talks about the REDACTED spell book page they created & released for us to view, & how they also made the IRIS poster.

.

July 5th

IRIS tweets how they’ll show some of their earliest prototypes leading up to their 100th anniversary. In a reply they say “We will be sharing pics periodically in the coming weeks”. Later Jack's instagram story is about.... Old puppets.

.

July 7th

IRIS reveals their 1st prototype, some earbuds; saying “The Computer’s Aid! With a simple bone-conduction implant, this little device increased a person’s mental arithmetic skills by 76%!”

Something a certain Doctor might find very useful, & a possible advancement. A day later, IRIS shows an earlier version that could only “do one ear at a time”.

.

June 10th

It’s Jackieboyman’s birthday! Jack tweets this out;

Which was done in a collab with Magpie & Topicgurin.

Meanwhile, we get some more hints from Magpie in another Theory Stream; including things about Overnightwatch glitches, Chase’s mental state, & Schneeplestein (& possibly where he’d been for 9 months).

The next day, Jack posts in JSETWT that as much as he wanted to post a JBM video, he doesn’t want to do the same thing with the same outfit as before, but for his return to be “expensive & meaningful. He’s a superhero, he should look like one too”.

.

July 16th

IRIS posts another prototype; the Retrowave. They say “A year after the first commercial microwave was launched in 1947, IRIS took cooking one step further. The Retrowave! Not only could it cook frozen meals to perfection, it could return a stale meal back to its freshest state! Here the lab boys are testing a chicken dinner”

July 31st

Another IRIS tweet, praising the James Webb Telescope photos... Which were released around 2 weeks earlier in real time.

.

August 3rd

It’s the 5th anniversary (or, half a decade) of Kill JSE, still one of the biggest (& heartbreaking) ego videos to be released, so far.

Jack’s later upload itself is not suspicious, except for the first & end in-video ads, which are both edited with a big horror edge. In the later one, there’s this;

Where the bottom numbers may just reference a future date.

.

August 11th

It’s another birthday- our magic boi Marvin! IRIS also tweets out a direct quote from one of three laws regarding impossibility.

Just like JBM’s birthday, Jack acknowledges Marvin’s; 

.

August 12th

The next day, we get IRIS’s 3rd prototype. A measuring tape-like item, or “The wondrous Lite-R device! This nifty little quantum mass displacer turned humanly unliftable objects as light as air! Just make sure that construction beam doesn’t go floating away in the breeze!”

Also, Jack tweets how he is on the move (via airplane).

.

August 14th

The upload of the day’s intro is a little... Off-putting. The ending as well has another staring contest (but shorter than QTGTW).

Jack retweets the IRIS Night Watcher poster. He also posts this, saying how he is in LA at the moment to film things with the IRIS project & his plan is to “blow your minds in the next year or so with this story and world”.

The next day, IRIS tweets an appreciation post for a Dr. Louise Hopkins.

.

August 17th & 18th

Jack has been busy with filming with Mark’s & corridor digital’s help. We get a few instagram stories showing some hospital equipment & an IRIS script.

.

August 20th

IRIS tweets a familiar question, this time with picture of a real-life security camera, and Jack lets us know that filming has wrapped up.

.

August 21st

We get this upload; WTCHR.

It’s video from IRIS themselves advertising their latest camera security system that’s able to watch detect both motion & even emotion, powered by an Antimatter generator. We question who the WTCHR might actually be & another possible rule of 3.

In the thumbnail there appears to be another eye/ SOS, & the Twitter IRIS symbol changes. The next day both the title & thumbnail change. A few days later Jack’s returned home, saying he can’t wait to show us all what he’s filmed.

.

September 1st

Another IRIS tweet, simply showing this;

.

September 8th

In I Spent a Day With JSE, Jack talks a bit more about the current IRIS plans.

.

September 10th

(It seems like those numbers from the nordvpn ad screenshot were in reference to this date, 9-10). IRIS posts their 4th invention;

“Infinity-color TV! Historically the first ‘high definition’ television; not bad for 1973! It was sadly recalled after 7 months due to reports of permanent colour-blindness. Don’t sit too close to THIS screen!”

September 15th

It is our very own Dr. Schneeplestein’s birthday; instead of a birthday post or acknowledgement as we’ve seen before (& some were predicting), IRIS tweets how they have “a power-related issue”.

.

September 22nd

A week later IRIS asks us what we could tell our past selves if time travel was possible, a slight title change is noticed with WTCHR, & the next day CHASE is added to its’ description. A few days later Sean lets us know that he knows his next upload will be his 5,000th.

.

September 30th

Jack... States how October starts the very next day. With an eye emoji. Joy.

.

October 1st

It’s spooky month. IRIS tweets a quick (& familiar) BOO!!

.

October 2nd

Jack tweets a 10 sec clip of alarms & a warning sign/ IRIS poster.

October 4th

IRIS tweets a vid clip, with eerie sirens, a loading screen, what looks like an interrogation room, & what could be a spot for a facecam or a familiar security camera format.

.

October 5th

Jack hits the ground running with this attention-grabbing tweet;

Soon enough; this is my 5,000th video is uploaded. Jack is going through different ideas, styles, & variations of what he ‘could do’ for his 5,000th vid (including the slap chop, finally). There’s a quick few clips of something different- then we get to the ending. A teaser trailer for the IRIS Project.

We see Chase being questioned about how he suddenly got from the woods to a rooftop (directly about/ from CHASE, go watch it). A red, bloody massacre with a plea “I didn’t kill them”, strange but familiar sayings, symbols & posters, an ominous quote yelled (that IRIS directly tweets later), Chase’s accusing “you guys knew & you did nothing!”

.

October 7th

It’s a selfie day in the JSE TWT community tab, so Jack himself posts this:

October 10th

It’s Anti’s birthday! The clothing brand Cloak tweets such a happy b-day post all in zalgo. Later... Jack himself tweets this out;

Note the one piece of zalgo at the very end.

.

October 13th

It’s been 3 years since CHASE. Meanwhile, Jack tweets another short IRIS clip, this one showing scenes from CHASE & “Discovery Logs”, “Persons of Interest” / “SUBJECTS”.

.

October 17th

Jack posts this video; & through out the run-time are random glitches & quick clips from the IRIS Project. The next day on his Discord, Jack promises more spooks & he’s been “enormously busy”.

.

October 19th

Another video upload on the channel, & more IRIS glitches. Jack also later says in a reply on the JSETWT page that there is no date set as things aren’t quite ready yet, but “soon” will be.

.

October 21st

Yet another full game let’s play, & even more glitches- including a new one showing a bowtie (& a certain dapper gentleman has worn before);

.

October 23rd

Someone is trying to hack into IRIS... Also, Jack lets us know that he’s very sick.

.

October 25th

Another IRIS character is introduced; Dr. Lucille Bell, & later a new clip gets tweeted by Jack, showing Chase’s psyche analysis. 

.

October 27th

IRIS tweets out more info; note the shadow outline on the screen.

.

October 28th - 30th

Each day from IRIS we get number with a short clip, essentially a countdown & in a spectrogram from one of the IRIS clips, “NOT SAFE” is found.

Jack posts how Project IRIS is dropping the next day on Halloween, & even uploads a video. We also get new Night-Watch IRIS posters from Magpie.

.

October 31st - Happy Halloween!

Jack posts a couple comments about today. Then a tweet that things were about to start. It gets posted aaaand- it’s a livestream? Showing a computer for a password??

Yep. It’s up to chat to figure out what it is & post the answer one letter at a time. Just like Overnightwatch (& /zoom), this turns out to be “I AM HERE”.

Where we are transported to another room, with a time bar at the bottom slowly running out.

It turns out this entire event- this ARG- has rooms where the live chat can actually control the camera movements to find a hidden puzzle, complete the game/ puzzle before time runs out, & a video clip is released.

It takes some time with nearly 40k watching & participating, but Jack (& IRIS) kept us updated! The stream even crashed at one point.

There are several easter eggs in a couple different places, (including a turtle, that was actually Magpie’s idea. Awe. We named him Gerald.)

Later, Jack posts the entire video; ANOMALY FOUND - CHASE BRODY. It shows Chase at IRIS for (supposedly) a week.

October 18th, 2019, day one; Chase is being questioned by IRIS (for simplicity, we’ll call Dr. Arin) about how he spontaneously appeared after the events of CHASE. He is consistently asked about being in contact with a Subject/ ALTR 114209, & told he cannot leave.

October 19th, day two; Chase is given the Dr. Hopkins Assessment that is filled with all sorts of questions, & is pushed to the limit.

Day three; no one comes to talk with Chase, but at least is given a tennis ball for distraction. However he hears sounds/ voices he recognizes & shouts out some familiar words.

October 21st, day four; Dr. Arin informs that both exposure levels & levels in the room “have also been increased”. They repeat the same Assessment as before, but this time there are light flashes & Chase becomes more & more distraught. He stumbles over his answers & can’t understand what’s happening to him.

Day five; Chase is alone again, but hears a different voice that he calls ‘Echo’. Chase insists that they can both leave if they work together, & discovers Echo has seen Anti too. After claiming Chase is “special” they abruptly leave.

Day six; Dr. Arin tries a different, more kind & sympathetic approach to get Chase to open up. He tells a case about how IRIS helps people, that he knows what Chase has been through (with an evil giggle heard), how he has seen ALTR 114209, & who he was; “a husband. A father”. Chase tearfully claims “I didn’t kill them”.

Day seven; Chase is told he needs to be moved to a more secure location, but panics when he recognizes a red hallway. “I’ve been here before” & says they have to leave. When IRIS doesn’t listen, he attempts to flee but gets dragged back- pleading all the way.

The finale; a dead guard shows right away that everything went wrong, then we actually go through Chase’s cell camera to the same hallway. Bodies now litter the space, fresh blood on the ground. A figure levitates down & makes his way to Chase on the other end, leaving bloody footprints in his wake. 

Anti greets him, in a voice not like one we’ve heard before caused by the scar across his throat, with “hello Chase”. 

The video then ends.

Afterwards, IRIS tweets “service maintenance required”.

The next day, we get a partially REDACTED document from IRIS, & Sean does a livestream going over the Project- & the future.

.

November 3rd - 4th

Jack tweets in a reply how Chase canonically has only 1 kid now. The next day, we find out it’s IRIS’s 100th Anniversary;

Which happens to be the mirrored date of Chase’s first video.

Later, in another Theory Stream going over the Project; Magpie hints IRIS redacted info from us as Echo was communicating with Chase, & Anti’s line was originally a different voice than the final version.
