Fear Incarnate?

Hi, long time lurker, first time poster! Just thought I'd share this I saw on Reddit, it seems like the rabbit hole of a likely ARG or some such... any thoughts?

http://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/mt741/keep_falling_in_and_out_of_sleep_due_to_pain_meds/

MMkay. The comments in the video read:-

68 74 74 7FEAR 3a 2f 2f 7a 31 33 2e 69 6e 76 69 73 69 6f 6e 66 72 65 65 2e 63 6f 6d 2f 46 65 61 72 5f 49 6e 63 61 72 6e 61 74 65 2f 69 6e 64 65 78 2e 7FEAR 68 7FEAR 3f

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Which, substituting the FEAR parts with 0 (the first few characters had to be http, so 7FEAR= 70 (p in hex) and converting to ASCII from hex gives-

http://z13.invisionfree.com/Fear_Incarnate/index.php?

Which leads to a forum. Time to dig a little deeper methinks...

EDIT - Ok, there are a handful of posts, 2 of which are not accessible without entering the "forum password". I guess that may come with registration. There is one post that is accessible so far though and that details the plot as it stands. Seems a chap by the name of JayceJ is having a bit of a bad time of it at the moment

One other thing of note - the Youtube vids have been uploaded by 33332777Incarnate One of the comments on his/her page reads-

33332777Incarnate wrote:
the eye of truth is always watching
dont be afraid he wont hurt


Double EDIT- Heh, I totally missed an announcement that is accessible, titled THERE IS A NUMBER which reads-

Fear wrote:
5 DIGITS, ONLY THAT FEW
NO MORE, NO LESS
ANSWER ME WITH THIS AND IT POSES A QUESTION
AND YET IT ANSWERS ANOTHER

_ _ P G T


After mulling over the riddle for a bit, I've come to the conclusion I haven't the foggiest what he/she is looking for. Dunno

I tried the Admin's birthday a couple ways and a few other numbers but no luck. I wonder how many tries before I get locked out.

Well, it says "Answer me with this and it poses a question" Maybe we answer the 5 Digits and THEN we figure out that _ _ P G T?

5 digits makes me think of fingers... are toes digits? I forget. Maybe it's the names of the fingers or the bones? I'll have to look that stuff back up again... that was middle school stuff. :/ Tarsus, metatarsis, something... Pinkie, thumb, pointer, ring, middle. Technical names for them are... various.

I'm rambling now. http://www.humanhand.com/humanhand.html < This seems helpful though. I'll check it out later, but I have to get to class now.

There's a new post in the thread that just says "RING RING. RING RING."

Also, a friend and I set up a chat in case anyone was interested in discussing the ARG in real time. I'll leave the link here: http://incarnatefear.chatango.com/

again, changing FEAR to the number 0 gives you
Once you know the number it will ask you a question

so a five digit number that also could read like a one word question maybe when converted alpha numerically?
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
code was _ _ PGT when tried on a phone keypad, gives you 11748. took us to a site which for a moment showed the first vid with a link for "Home" and "Eyes" but when I clicked anything, it redirected me to a website under review page.

thanks to the folks in the chat, they solved that quickly!

Little update on our progress:

_ _ P G T on a cellphone is 11748. I posted that onto the number thread and it turned into "ring ring". Jayce posted "GO FORTH." and we were able to get into the ???? subforum with 11748 as password. Once there we found a thread with this text:

The site link doesn't work right now, but there is now audio on the main site. There's some whispering at the end and the audio is backwards so a forum member reversed it and got this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22275258/fearincarnate.mp3

New video uploaded to the channel: http://youtu.be/l1s32cDObfg

We've been taking the audio and trying to clean it up by raising the pitch and trying to get rid of the echo. I'm uploading my clean version, maybe it will help to transcribe the audio.

EDIT - here is what we have so far for a transcription from those in chat:
Quote:
[00:00-00:03] "You have all filled up with darkness, darkness is eternal. As is fear."
[00:06-00:15] "We have rules. You've fallen down into darkness, therefore, you've fallen into a world, MY world. My world, you play by my rules.
[00:15-00:21] Now, Yes. You have [?] had a setback as much as your contributions have brought downfall
[00:21-00:25] You should not choose your future....powerful elders We could reveal a secret that move those who would conquer our Earth
[00:25] You're not the first, of course you may not be the last
[00:28] What is the secret, you may ask
[00:29] Soon I shall reveal to you those who came before you.
[00:32] Maybe then you will realize the price that has been paid for your insolence.
[00:35-00:37] Until then. Stay Tuned.

We could use some fresh ears to figure out what's being said from 00:15-00:25, because it's very hard to make out.

2nd EDIT -- 33332777Incarnate has posted a new video on YT titled gift.mp4 that shows the true transcript, so you can refer to that.

There was a new audio file posted as well, replacing the Darkness.mp4 video. I'm not certain exactly when it was uploaded, but it and a new password protected subforum have appeared (this one being called "The Vault").

Hello *waves*
http://fearincarnate.site90.com/ << Went back to check if the site is up- properly loads now.
On the second tab, 'eyes', there seems to be a creepy picture with a tiny number- 77462?- I think. Also, if you rollover the tab, the picture changes- didn't want to look at the picture that changed. Embarassed
