[QUOTE=Talvy;46498881]So... how does the timeline go?[/QUOTE]
1->2->3
phone guy even said that the one in FNAF1 closed down.
[QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;46498856]no, this has been disproven I believe.[/QUOTE]
I have not seen it debunked anywhere in this thread.
A few logs hint at the game being a prequel to the first game such as; The first game mentions in the first call “They used to be allowed to walk around during the day, but not anymore.” and in the second game it says “They are allowed to roam around even during the day” among other hints in the calls.

Wasn't that Fazbear's Family Diner?

Nope, he said a place called Freddy Fazbears Diner got closed down. FNAF1 ends with 'Pizzeria' not 'Diner'
And even then he ends that with "or something" so who knows what the actual name was.

New rules.
I've read some theories about how people are saying you, Jeremy Fitzgerald, are the one who stole the golden Freddy suit and how it was you, who killed the children. Pretty spooky.
[QUOTE=MrWhite;46498752]So, in the first game, the "bite of '87" is explained as something in the distant past, but in the second game it's not referenced However, the "old" animatronics in the second are visibly from the first game, meaning FN@F2 takes place after the firs in this regard. That would contradict the dated paycheck after the 5th night being in '87. What is going on here?[/QUOTE]
No it's a possible prequel. The Bite was never mentioned because it didn't happen yet, the old animatronics are there because the original Family Diner was shut down. That Diner isn't the one in the original game.
Family Diner (4 Original Animatronics)
Grand Re-opening (4 Original Animatronics dismantled, deactivated and replaced)
Pizzeria (4 Original Animatronics fixed up)
Phone Guy is alive in the sequel, how? Cause he didn't die till his last week at the Pizzeria (FN@F1)
FN@F3 > FN@F2 > FN@F1
if there's a 5N@F3, odds are it'll take place in the Diner, rather than either of the Pizzerias.
phone guy even mentions the lured children incident on day 1
Found this, haven't even read it all yet
[QUOTE]The game is actually a prequel to the first for sure..
SOLID FACTS: 1) A few logs hint at the game being a prequel to the first game such as; The first game mentions in the first call “They used to be allowed to walk around during the day, but not anymore.” and in the second game it says “They are allowed to roam around even during the day” among other hints in the calls.
2) None of the animatronics look anything like the first game, almost as if concepts of designs were taken and made less scary to be more kid friendly.
3) The owners in the first game are cheap, as if they are having to save money due to having spent too much money.
4) You get more money in your paycheck in your first game than in the second, like inflation would cost your minimum wage to go up.
5) The check in the second game has the date of 11-12-87 on it. The first game mentions the “bite of ‘87” and the second game makes no mention of the bite of ‘87, so the bite must have happened during or after the events of the second game.
6) The first call in the second game mentions that the “old” animatronics were being retrofitted with SOME of the new animatronic software. Not necessarily all of it.
7) The calls mention the name of the old DINER (not pizzeria) called something like Fazbear’s Family Diner.
8) The morning shift suddenly becomes open and the phone guy SAYS he will “probably take the night shift himself”. The first game starts with him explaining that “I used to be the night guard before you, but this is my last week.”, also explaining how he was still alive until night 4 of the first game in which he is then killed.
9) A call mentions that someone has stolen a golden Freddy outfit. Also, the cops are beginning an investigation by night 4/5.
10) The animatronics in the first game were not phased by flashing lights yet the new ones apparently are as a shut off protocol.
11) Cut scenes show the first game’s animatronics and the Chica you see looks nothing like the “old” one. Story being pieced together:
The story begins as you are now working to guard this new Pizzeria in 1987. You watch the animatronics and attempt to survive as things begin to transpire in the morning. By night 3 or 4 someone has stolen a yellow Freddy suit. As in the lore of the first game, this may mean the morning employee has taken the suit to lure kids into the back closet to kill them.
By night 6, the morning shift is open and you are asked to work it for a birthday party if you are able to make it through night 6. The phone guy then takes over while you work the next morning until the business is then shut down for a time. Upon returning, the phone guy takes the night shift and is killed on night 4 of his shift. The first game’s events then transpire where Mike learns about some of these things but is then fired due to “tampering”.
Speculation:
-The first guard employee took the suit and began killing/kidnapping children after asking to be moved to the morning shift.
-The bite of ‘87 wasn’t a child, but the employee who attempted to steal a 6th child but was stopped in his attempt by an animatronic who had earlier in the week seen him take a child and in response, due to being connected to the criminal database, bit off his frontal lobe to protect the children.
-The animatronics were upgraded and new exoskeletons made in their design as an attempt to replace the cute animatronics, which were confiscated for the police to investigate the deaths and missing children.
-The company by the first game is now in a lot of debt to pay for getting the new exoskeletons, dealing with police, paying the families of the dead children, etc. and must save power and money to keep running at this point.
-The building was refitted with doors and some areas torn down or replaced in the time the place was closed for investigation to prevent future disaster involving employee death.
-The reason the phone guy is afraid of the old animatronics is that the old business they were in had been closed for some time DUE to incidents involving the animatronics becoming hostile or malfunctioning due to the time being when animatronics were first being made and tested.
-The tampering done in the first game may have been done by the marionette, who seems to have some influence on the events of the first game due to cut scenes then revealing he was there.
-The marionette took the souls of children and put them in the first game’s suits, thus “giving life” as in the mini game does.[/QUOTE]
really hoping the next game is going to tie up all loose ends cause this story is sooooo confusing.
I managed to snag some of Weaver's non-tumblr stuff on 4chan.

I'm still wondering how the fuck the bite is in the timeline. It has to be before FNAF2 since the place closes down after that game, and there's not enough time left in the year for the bite to take place, yet Phone guy doesn't mention it (if the check is true).
There's also the issue of him saying it's a Summer Job for Jeremy, but the check says it's 11.13.1987, which also conflicts with the supposed date of the killings, being June.
Though there's no problem if we accept that the check is a piece of shit, which just makes it pretty much certain that the game is a sequel, not a prequel.
If the check is wrong, then fuck, maybe the article behind it is wrong too. That's a crazy leap of faith, but eh
If there is in fact a 3rd restaurant, then that makes more sense. It's still a really strange timeline to understand.

Actually, there is one day where the bite is possible, and it's hinted that it was the day.
Day 7. Jeremy worked the Night Shifts from Night 1 to 6, then [sp]Phone Guy told him that the place was shutting down, and that there was one last event happening, a Birthday Party. He also told Jeremy that they will find a replacement for Night 7 and any future Night as Jeremy is being moved to the Day Shift. Fritz comes in on Night 7, Custom mode, fucks with the animatronics, and gets fired for tampering them on the same day.[/sp] My Theory is [sp]that because Frtiz tampered with the the Animatronics, the Animatronics were more aggressive. Phone Guy said that the Animatronics were tampered with before and were more aggressive to the adults but were fine with kids, I forgot which night but it is between Night 3 and 6. Anyway so they became more Aggressive towards the Adults and BAM, the bite of 87 happens.[/sp]
Well there definitely [I]is[/I] a third restaurant.

the joke is that whenever someone posts "hello?" or a picture of BB, someone replies with "DELETE THIS"
and "DELETE THIS" is from what those guys said vvvvv

Fair enough. It's not solid but the possibility is enough.
[sp]Wasn't Fritz assigned to day shift before night 7 though?[/sp]
There's still the investigations and stolen suit thing which clearly conflicts with the date on the check though.

It's from that Gmod video where they pin the kid to the wall and he screams to delete the stuff or he'll get his brother to ban him from Gmod

So it is a prequel, my bad.

I still think Jeremy got bitten on his day-shift at the birthday party, assuming they attack security guards because [sp]the killer was one, and they find any as a danger. He was specifically told to wear a uniform, which may back up this theory.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Xonax;46499089][sp]I don't think so, I think it's hinted that something happen to the guy on Day Shift.[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]I went and re-read some of the phone guy dialogues. Fritz took night 7, but the birthday happens the day after night , so the tampering would have happened on or before 6.[/sp]
[sp]Also why was Fritz on night 7 and how did he survive to talk to Schmidt in FNAF1 later on? The animatronics were pretty damn aggressive then. Did they not shut down the place right after the birthday party?[/sp]

[sp]I don't think it was Fritz, I think Fritz is either filler or just a random guy that thought it would be funny to mess with the animatronics.[/sp]

[/QUOTE]
[sp]I don't think Fritz is the Phone Guy, and they did shut down the place. Also the birthday party was after Night 7. The Nights start at 12 AM and end at 6AM. The Party was being held tomorrow, so tomorrow was Day 7, and rather than doing Night 7, he was told to take the Night Shift, meaning he was on Day 7.[/sp]
So what were the dates on the seperate game's paychecks?
