It was still Foxy

I don't wanna come off as rude so let me start of by saying thank you for arguing with me. Sincerely, thank you! I want to interact with you people, especially when I'm spouting theories. So thank you for arguing with me, but you didn't change my mind, and here's why.

Your argument was that Foxy and all of the old animatronics would have been in the parts/services room and wouldn't have been let out. This does make sense since these animatronics were taken out of public use and were used for parts after retrofitting them with some of the newer technology.

However, just because they were pushed aside doesn't mean they have to follow the rules. Here's a transcript of Phone Guy telling you that because they're the older models that they shouldn't be able to walk around. Obviously they can since they are characters that continuously try to get to you. So they get out of the parts/services room at night, who's to say that Foxy didn't get out during the day at one point and bit someone's head? So I still say that this is the most likely scenario.

I'm sorry for another day of Five Nights, I really wanted to do another review today, but I had no time to test any game and right now, it's 1:08am so I'm just using this since I already had it all ready to go. I'm getting tired of Five Nights, I'm still planning on solving the entire thing outright, but I need a break. So either tomorrow, or most likely the next day (I might disappear tomorrow due to a busy schedule but I'll try not to!) anyway one day or the other I'll hopefully have another game review, hopefully something relaxing, that won't give me nightmares. (Even though this hasn't really given me any nightmares.)

Anyway this has been another in-depth game analysis, though not as deep as usual. Thanks for reading, I'm going to sleep now so I'll see you all next time!

The Bite of '87..Who dunnit?

Hello and welcome to another in depth analysis of the Five Nights at Freddy's games. This time I focus on the infamous Bite of '87. It was never blatantly stated who the culprit actually was but there was enough info given for us to figure out who did it.

And in the end....the butler did it!!
I'm sorry..I just really wanted to say that. I actually wasn't the butler. There isn't even a butler to have done it. But there is a pirate who certainly seems guilty..


We're first introduced to the Bite of '87 in the first Five Nights by the Phone Guy.

The fact that it happened while the animatronics were allowed to walk around during the day points to the idea that the Bite occurs during the week that Five Nights 2 takes place.

So based on this knowledge we have a rough list of suspects who could be the culprit. Any of the characters from Five Nights 2, listed below.

Now we have ten suspects as to who it could be, now to narrow them down.

It's fairly obvious that it couldn't have been Bonnie, being that Bonnie is missing an upper jaw, and for a similar reason we can eliminate Chica since it appears that Chica's mouth is frozen open, which would take away any biting ability. Similarly, Balloon Bit....Balloon Boy's mouth is too small to bite into someone's head.

That leaves us with seven possibly culprits, Freddy, Foxy, any of the Toy characters, Mangle, and Golden Freddy. But looking at calls from Phone Guy in the second game can narrow it even farther.

This particular call is a lot of reading to do, but I'm not interested in the entire thing. What I'm interested in is the second half of the call.

At this point in the game it is implied that the Bite of '87 has already occurred and that there's a lot going on trying to sort out the legal issues. What interests me is the fact that to sort out these issues, the owners of the original restaurant. This fact would seemingly point to the idea that it's one of the older animatronics that is the guilty party. So updating our suspect list now we only have 3 possible culprits.

Freddy, Foxy, and Golden Freddy.

The next character we can cross off of our list is Golden Freddy. The reasoning behind this elimination is that Golden Freddy is actually not an animatronic.

And this phone call on night six proves it. Golden Freddy is obviously a yellow colored Freddy suit so it would make sense that this would actually just be a person in the suit. (I have a theory on who it might be and will talk about that next time I go in-depth)

More proof of this point is Golden Freddy's posture when he appears in the office. He's slumped over, and very limp. Almost like a dead body. Taking info from Five Nights 3, we know there are two special animatronics that double as suits, utilizing spring locks to keep the animatronic parts out of the way. I've come to the conclusion that Springtrap is actually the spring lock suit of Bonnie which means that Golden Freddy would likely be the second. It makes sense that these two would be the spring lock suits because they're both a yellowish gold rather than what we know as the normal color for them, because these two we're actually made at the same time. So Golden Freddy is actually a dead body, killed by faulty spring locks, and also a decommissioned animatronic that shouldn't be able to escape a secret boarded up room inside of the pizzeria.

This leaves Freddy and Foxy as our two main suspects. I went back to the first Five Nights game to see if I could dig up an clues in the phone calls or even the animatronics themselves but no such luck. Truth be told, I realized that the animatronics in the first Five Nights actually are not the same ones that are in Five Nights 2. The main difference I notices was that in the first game, you can't see the endoskeleton's teeth. So with no direct clues left in the games I did some more research on that first phone call. Mainly, this exact line.

From this one statement we can tell that whoever was attacked, lived and lost a majority of their frontal lobe. So I went and looked up relative lobe sizes.

This picture here is the best that I found and sheds a lot of light on the capabilities our attacker must have had.

The frontal lobe takes up the front of the brain (DUH!) but more than that, it goes halfway back into the head. And to warrant the comment above, again, a majority of that lobe must have been taken off. And this leads us to the conclusion that our attacker had to have a mouth long enough to allow for a 5 inch long bite.

With my estimation for Freddy's snout around 3 or 4 inches long, while he would be able to do a lot of damage, he would not be able to completely remove the frontal lobe. Besides, with his flat teeth, he would crush the frontal lobe more than separate it, so we can eliminate Freddy.

That leaves us with only one final suspect for the Bite of '87. The pirate. Foxy the animatronic pirate finally lost it and bit some's face off. He could separate the frontal lobe as well, with my estimation for his snout being around 7 inches long, and his sharp, canine-like teeth it would have been easy for him.

So while it may be Five Nights at Freddy's, it turns out that Foxy is the real murderous villain of them all. The rest of them are just wannabes.

Well this has been another in-depth game analysis, I'd love to hear about your proof for or against what I said. Thanks for reading and I'll see you next time!

Five Nights' Timeline

I'm going to start with a blatant exclamation.
I HAVE NO CLUE! Feel free to quote me if you want, or better yet, prove me wrong, but unless I say it is true, do not take what I say as fact. It is merely me theorizing.

This is the timeline progression of the games, in other words this is the games in order of when they happened. And this is a fact. Five Nights 2 happened first, being set in 1987 which you can clearly see on the check you get at the end of night five.

Now we get into the parts that are possibly, or probably true, but might not be. 

Next in the timeline is the first Five Nights. The year is unclear at first glance, but doing a little digging can clear things up rather easily. 

First off, you can see that you get paid on November Twelfth, but the year is X’ed out. But the second thing you should notice is the amount you’re paid for five days of work. $120, it doesn't seem like much, but with this number we can determine the hourly wage and then figure out a general time that it could take place.

So $120 divided by five days is $24 which then divided by the six hours a day you work is $4. So you’re trying to not get murdered for $4/hr! Seems like pretty good pay huh? Where do I sign up?

..Back on track now, assuming you were being paid at minimum wage, or maybe a little above, we can find the time area in which this likely took place.

Looking at this graph of minimum wage in the US we can see that the minimum wage is $4 roughly between 1990 and 1996.

Now for the second part of the check, the date. We see that the date on the check is November Twelfth and most establishments give paychecks on a Friday so assuming we were paid on a Friday we can figure out the exact year. We know that this happened between 1990 and 1996 so searching through each year we can look for what year(s) November twelfth landed on a Friday. 1993 is the only year that matches that criteria so we can safely assume that the first Five Nights takes place in November of 1993.

However this is not the case. Taking a second look at the second installment, you're paid again on November twelfth. Looking back to November 1987, we see that November Twelve 1987 was actually a Thursday. This makes sense for the game because then the extra sixth night would be taking place on Friday the thirteenth. SpooOOookyYYyyy!

This also tells us that The Fazbear company hands out paychecks on Thursdays rather than Fridays and if they continued that trend all the way until the time that the first installment is happening then that changes our date. Instead of looking for when November twelfth is a Friday, we're looking for when November twelfth is a Thursday and re-checking the calendar we find that 1992 is when November twelfth was a Thursday and is the only year in our window that this happened. Therefore it is more likely that the first installment happened in 1992.

Now to figure out when the third installment takes place. Just a warning, at the moment I don't have a lot of solid info so there will be a lot of assuming and I might be completely wrong.

On December sixth of 2014, Scott the creator of the games, released this picture. There is absolutely nothing visible in the picture that gives us any clue about when Five Nights 3 takes place but in the base code of the picture, the phrase "30 Years Later" appears, which seemingly implies that the third installment takes place after either the first or second installments. This means that Five Nights 3 takes place in either 2017, or 2022. But can we possibly tell which one?

I say yes we can! ...maybe..if you don't mind some more assuming and speculations. Looking at the newspaper that appears when you start the game, we're shown that an amusement park is opening a horror attraction based on Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Since both Five Nights 1 and 2 took place in a Pizzeria this statement doesn't help us. But what does is the last sentence. "...this attraction is guaranteed to bring back your childhood in the worst way possible." The keyword being "childhood." This attraction is being aimed towards people who went to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza as a child. We'll assume the age group of kids going to Freddy's is 2-9 years old, which is the age group for kids going to Chuck E. Cheese as well.

Based on this idea, it seems more logical that Five Nights 3 takes place in 2017. Here's why:

Horror attractions are aimed towards adrenaline junkies, normally younger people. Young adults and teenagers mostly. Now, if Five Nights 3 takes place in 2017 then the kids who went to Freddy's during 1987 (Five Nights 2) would be between 32 and 39 years old now. That seems a bit old to be an adrenaline junkie and horror fanatic. You never know, but it seems unlikely.

However kids who went to Freddy's in 1992 (The original Five Nights) would be between 27 and 34. While this age group does overlap with the other age group, notice that the second group, at its youngest is in it's mid 20's. It seems a lot more likely to me that a 27 year old would visit a horror attraction than a 36 year old. Unfortunately that's all the proof I have at the moment but I think I made a pretty logical argument.

So to recap, the Five Nights timeline is:

Five Nights 2 (November 1987) then Five Nights 1 (November 1992) and finally Five Nights 3 (2017)

If you have any proof to back me up further, or any proof against anything I've said, feel free to comment on this post! I'd love to hear about it!

Also I'm thinking of doing more posts like this in the future, let me know what you think!

Thanks for reading and I'll see you next time!
