Code help

A few friends are running a small arg for a group in the area, I've been given this code to crack, but can't figure it out after trying various ciphers.

Please help.

http://ninjawoo.blogspot.com/ There's this page I can post with one of the codes in the orignal base 64.

The second is the fourth post down on this page.

The following is a pm I recieved this morning, which made me realize the other two codes were in base 64, as they came out like this when I put it through the decoder.

My only observation at this point is that the groups of 5 are probably meant to distract you, since each major group ends with a set of less than five. The total number of characters in each major group is divisible by 3, so the code is possibly a mapping onto sets of three. Beyond that, doing a frequency count of the sets of 3 in your message shows very little repetition, so it's not a simple substitution.
