Hey guys, I had some more listening stuff I wanted to be sure about, if anyone isn't too busy:

1. Dailymotion - Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters GX Episode 80 Subbed (1/2) - a Film & TV video

At about 4:30 in that video. I'm trying to listen to the voice that says まったく, but I can't really make out the rest of his line because of the girl's voice, so I was hoping someone might have a better ear. Sounds something like, 「まったく、ででにしちゃって…」 to me, so after a quick lookup, I thought it might have to do with dedication.

2. Dailymotion - 81 qs clip - a Film & TV video

a) At about 0:17, he says, "これこそクイズをたくといわれたぼくの自信のデッキ" (I'm assuming, based on his lack of confidence so far until he gets this game show persona going, that it's 自信 and not 自身.) I was thinking the part in red might be クイズオタク, and since オタク also means "enthusiast", I had it translated as "This is what I call my 'Quiz Buff' deck of confidence." to get the "enthusiast/'geek'" thing across (like how we call people who are into movies "Movie Buffs"). Just wanted a second opinion on this one to make sure I'm hearing it right.

b1) Around 1:12, he says, "おたくが持ってる運や体力なんて生まれ付いてのもの." , and I translated that as "All that luck and endurance you have--you were born with them." Just wanted to get it double-checked.

b2) After that, he says, "そんなものでめだってる方がズルでしょう?", which I translated as "Wouldn't the one standing out with them be the sneaky one?", but I wanted to make sure I was getting めだってる's meaning (and the general gist) right here.

Thanks in advance, as always. =]
