Starting Again?

smj0724 · 05-29-2008, 09:34 PM

On tonight's finale of LOST, there was an ad for "Octagon Global Recruiting".
A quick visit to their website (octagonglobalrecruiting.com) shows the connection to the Dharma Initiative. As of now, it looks like you can only submit your email address, but the fun should start on my birthday, July 24th.

Dude this is awesome. I hope I don't have to wait till June to get a message back.

It appears to be just an ad for Comic Con, but if it turns out to be more, then we will certainly let everyone know.

Oh, man. I hope so. I can see this easily getting out of hand for me. The last one sucked up way too much of my life. But it was fun.

I miss DJ Dan.

remember last time, didn't it all start with an email submision box?

maybe theres a word that we type in to get something?

like the whole breakingstrain thing?

WOW! Feels good to post here again. I really hope TLE starts up again, it was so much fun wasting all that time last time!

Seeing as how those dates coincide with ComicCon this year then the producers should announce something. Maybe a distraught Rachel Blake crying about how Mittlewerk killed her Dad...and then we find out how he died.

Wow, I can't believe it's all coming back to me now.

I sure hope this is something... I'm actually doing work at work

Looking through the HTML code of the internet link to the message shows this

meta name="Alert" content="March has 32 days"

Also, if you look at the headers of the email, you'll find:
hansvaneeghen @ octagonglobalrecruiting.com
I sent him an email and got this back:

Thank you for your email. I am currently on assignment in the field. I will contact you as soon as I am back in the office.

Sincerely,
Hans
