So does every other letter I've tried.

So does any other letter or number. '?' is an invalid character in that string. That's why that video gives the error message.

Really? I see Jessica. But I'm more interested in the red line. Looks like massively blurred out text. Two words, the first longer than the second.

The blurred out text is the first string of numbers from the end of Conversion (the ones that decoded to "nevercured").

 		AM I THE THIRD, it occurs to me, could mean the third victim of Alex. I'm going to look now, but who was the 3rd person Alex sacrificied to TO?

 		When I first saw "AM I THE THIRD" flash on screen, I immediately thought back to one of the recent TTA videos (Conversion?) when it said, "WHO ARE THE LIARS? ARE YOU ONE OF THEM? ARE YOU BOTH OF THEM?"

"AM I THE THIRD?"

It may not make too much sense given the context of the earlier quote, but it's at least a different take on that portion of the video.

Yeah, the closest I could get to this info was Entry 22, in which Alex claims that "Seth is gone. We were the only two left." Which might suggest that it's not Seth(since there's more than 3 people) but the problem is that we know that this video is a lie.

The notion of a third quandrant does sound plausible given the video's title, but that still doesn't tell us anything. It's possible that knowing which person is "third" may help us make sense of this quadrant idea, rather than starting with quandrants to find the person.

Could mean the third person to become TTA, of course.

 		To head off some additional probably false leads, I looked at Entry #3 and Deluge, the 3rd TTA video, to see if they were in any way connected.

Entry #3 features Alex only, filiming himself. Deluge doesn't seem to contain anything relevant.

According to the proposed timeline on the MH wiki the third person Alex attacked on camera is Seth. Tim gets attacked first in #56. Then in #51 Brian gets attacked. Next is 22 where Seth disappears in the pipe room. So IF we are to disregard Sarah and Jay since we currently dont have a tape of them being made "gone" and IF this is what the clue meant then Seth=TTA. IF thats true it would seem to follow that Brian=Hoody.

So we can also read the ending text as "any one why I am see sixty nine?".

So maybe there are hints in entry 69? I'll check it out and get back to you guys.
---------------------
So #69 was the entry where Jay and Tim find burnt tapes in the hole. Perhaps there is another tape with ze answers?

I personally stick to Brian is Hoody, Seth is TTA theory as well, but as you know, there are too many IF in your post. Marble Hornets is a series where you should not take anything for sure. Several unreliable narrators, constant lies, cryptic messages, half truths, amnesia, locations switches etc.

Some things bugged me about things that people have said so far.
First off, every face or humanoid shape, people have said looks like Alex tied to a chair.

The figure from 0:00-0:07. Internet says, Alex tied to a chair.
I think it looks more like Jay from #79, the moment he knocked over the folding chair(10:10ish). As if Tim turned around to see him. The columns and lighting look about right.

Then Hoody with a wrench smacking a camera man. Not sure if I've seen this before. Looks familiar.

0:07-0:08. Internet says, Alex tied to a chair.
Really? I see Jessica. But I'm more interested in the red line. Looks like massively blurred out text. Two words, the first longer than the second.

0:16-0:22 Internet says, Alex tied to a chair.
Probably. Though I keep thinking I see a cigarette. And I think that Tim is the only smoker we've seen. Additionally, at 0:16. weird skull chipmunk thing. And what's the Blue and green background? Someone looking at a camera? Can't tell.

0:21-0:24 Internet says, Alex, Amy, Jessica, Brian, Seth(Have we EVER seen Seth?)
Could be anyone. I think it looks like Jimmy Carter. I doubt it is, but it's way too fuzzy to make out.

Secondly, the audio. Having sped it up 75%, an amount that works well with several other TTA videos, all the voice clips seem to be forwards.

"Look for Information" the most garbled of all of the clips.

"Do not do this." Different voice from the first. Internet says "Do not turn us in." I don't hear it at all.

"Hold off" Sounds like the first voice.

"Stay calm" Sounds like the first voice again. Also, good advice.

"Everyone is going to-" Possible, "Only one is going to-" Compleatly different voice. The words, "Die" and "survive" can't be heard no matter how much I try to clean it up, though they can be inferred.

"They didn't know how to leave." Some said "You didn't know how to live." It sounds very much like, "They" to me.

Interesting to note, the first words start at 0:07 and stops at 0:16. to match the video change in the background. And the other voice shows up and leaves with the unknown face.

Lastly, someone posted that the string of characters was not,

N
E1Y
IMC
6C9?

They wrote it with a '6' instead of a 9.

I like the "Anyone, why I am" theories, I hope that get's solved. "Anyone, why I am see sexy now?" Is TTA sexting us?

When I first saw it, I thought it was a youtube string. The problem is that you can't have a '?' in that string, but if you remove it, it's one character short. Also, those codes are case sensitive. I don't have time to enter every possible combination of upper and lower case, followed by every letter and number as the last digit. I'll let the internet do that for me.

Doesn't work.


I don't think you are supposed to make that code a sentence, i actually though you should convert the numbers to letters based on the order in the alphabet, maybe you can switch back the letters, making them numbers and the video link woudn't be short.

And if you want to know wich one is the third... Based on the entry numbers Amy is the third cause i think she dissapears after Brian and Seth. Or if we take the last one that dissapeared on the series was Brian in #51 i think wich was the third that we actually saw being attacked by TO (Previous ones being Seth and Amy)

When converted in the manner you suggested, the string of code reads:

14
5A25
9133
F3I

its not a youtube URL, it suffers from the same problem, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=145A259133F

I went ahead and put it through some coding languages:

Base64: ׎@ÛŸußqw

Hex: NaN (Are you TTA, Linda?)

Binary: 0011000100110100001000000011010101000001001000000011001000110101

0010000000111001001100010010000000110011001100110010000001000110001100110010000001001001

Id do more but I'm struggling to find free online text decoding strings and its early in the morning for me, if anyone wants to take the reins for this, they are more than welcome to.

[EDIT: cut it in two to prevent the page from going screwy, still in multiples of 8 but no idea where the cut off takes place.]

Damn good catch.
And with that parallel, it makes this seem more likely.

And I still say that it's Jessica behind the red text.

They've gone too far to go back, especially with the imminent conflict coming.
