 		assuming those are hex numbers, converting them to decimal and using the appropriate ascii character yields this:

jjjnzoblzbaguylpbzBzavfpvragRlrfjzi

my immediate thought was that it might be further enciphered with a shift (making the j's into w's, thinking perhaps a web address) but all a ROT to that effect give is this:

www{‡|oy‡ont‚†y}o‡O‡nƒs}ƒnt_ysw‡v


your turn... Confused

EDIT: just thought I'd add the decimal equivalent numbers for reference:
106 106 106 110 122 111 98 108 122 98 97 103 117 121 108 112 98 122 66 122 97 118 102 112 118 114 97 103 82 108 114 102 106 122 105 0

 		Nice solve guys!

Here's a go at the transcript:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's a video of Marcus with his dog standing in front of what appears to be Melody's house. At first he's on the phone with Jude.

[Marcus] (On the phone) Well, look, I'm gonna be talking to Melody here in a few minutes.
[Marcus] (To his dog) Josh come here, come here Josh!
[Marcus] (On the phone) You tell Omniscient Eyes that we are NOT going to sell for anything. Jude, Jude... Jude! You gotta be tough on this one man, gotta be tough!

Noticing Melody (filming), winking at her.

[Marcus] (On the phone) All right. All right huh. I'll talk to you later. Hangs up
[Melody] What are you doing here? You up to sear some trouble, or what?
[Marcus] No... I... need to talk to you.
[Melody] Well, as long as the camera is running... gotta protect myself.
[Marcus] Ok, you wanna do... (to his dog) Josh, sit!
[Melody] Let's go inside the house, sit outside
[Marcus] Alright.

So, Melody is in paranoia mode, Marcus apparently has something very important he wants (needs) to share with Melody and Jude isn't completely confident they should not give in to OE's threats...


Any corrections are welcome! Mostly the "You op to sear some trouble" is kinda unclear. It's the best we could come up with in chat...

 		ok good thank you... I realized shortly after I had gotten up from the computer the grave error I had made...

I wrote the script to do the rot myself... I accidentally did a rot on the whole ascii character set. I blame it on rushing due to being at work, and not having had anything to eat all day... Smile

Yes, the result of your ROT'ing did look a bit peculiar Wink

Just FYI, unFiction has it's own ROT script! There's also, this great Sidebar Utility with lots of tools for various decoding stuff. You need to make a link in your browser to javascript:void(_search=open('http://www.unfiction.com/resource/toy.html','_search')) for it to work like it should.

 		Boy, he is such a flirt with that camera Laughing

Nice addition to the game, btw. Hope there will be more like that.

I want to see the other boys on camera. Marcus was not what I expected even with having seen his picture.
