In connection with this tip I also received decoded information from the QR thinger. Let me know if you're stuck enough to want me to post it here.

I'd rather have a better shot of the QR code.
/me wonders if the PM tried to scan the code from the video to make sure it worked before posting.

Code

Printed and blew up the QR code in the first video. Scans to
"So, you think you're ready to play the game? Go to cognistix.com and sign up for a free psychological profiling to see if you can handle it"

This shit looks pretty intense. I'm registered.

Yeah, another synonym to describe cognistix.com is scary - as in, read their terms and conditions of use carefully before you consider signing up. Here's an excerpt:

After reading through the site and the terms, I have to say that If I were single and 15 years younger I woud jump all over this. But I am not so I will be lurking. (It looks fun just not for me)

Despite my initial instincts re: this game, I jumped in and registered at Cognistix, if only because I'll be in NY this weekend.

Also, is it just my computer, or is anyone else unable to view the source on the Unmased League (or whatever they call themselves) webpage?

Not only that, but--
