Gridgate - Tumblr Posts

I think I'm back from my hiatus

and I'm back to analyzing shit

soo, everyone is focusing on analyzing what is written but meanwhile I (not like other girls, so quirky and different) can't stop thinking about the colors and what we can actually make out of this grid.

so ofc the upper line is about episodes, big fucking deal, everyone knew (the titles always have a short pixelared part that is most likely a number so they're the episodes)

now, let's focus on what I find the most interesting part, the colors.

there are six of them:

blue

red

another shade of red

purple

black

green

now I know that some people could argue that "blah blah blah they're just colors blah blah you're reading too much into this"

to them I say

Shut the fuck up you milkvan idiot

they are in a meeting room, who was probably prepared by someone, who specifically followed the duffers request of what they wanted in the room. why tf ask for so many colors if not to color code everything?

I have to confess though that I have no idea what these colors mean, so I'm hoping for someone to reblog this and let the magic of the internet to its work so that some people come up with an actually convincing hypothesis.

so I'm just gonna report the patterns that the different colors follow

dark red / purple is one of the most used colors, it appears frequently especially in the first two episodes, then from episode 4 on it switches to purple. I believe this could be the "main" plot, like finding clues etc.

red is also a frequently used color, and I'm almost sure it represents el's arc (#1 her color is red and #2 she's one of the main characters)

black appears too quite a few times but not as much as red and purple do, it's the only color to appear accompanied by purple in the first two episodes (aka the main plot). there is also a drawing made in black of what looks to be at least correlated to the UD, so it's probably vecna.

blue appears once in the third episode with a big chunk of plot, then makes a comeback a couple of times with small things in episode 4 just to disappear for the most of the season with a small comeback at the beginning of the last episode. I have no idea what it means and if you have a theory please please reblog with it

and then, finally, we have green, I have no idea what this means too, what I do know though is that it appears a little at the end of ep 3, a lot at the end of episode 7 and a little on episode 8.

finally, for what concerns the left column of the grid (the 1st one), I believe it represents the introduction, beginning, development and ending of the plot.

please please reblog this I know I might sound annoying but I really want to have some people fill in the blanks that I couldn't fill.
