I had gone to it this morning and it was working. I took their test .... was told I had passed........smiled and went off to work!

I took the test and passed too. . .

The cynic in me is 100% sure everyone passes the test!

Agreed.
I refreshed the page and got to take the test.
I chose the most ridiculous answers of the four choices that were offered and I passed.

As an advertising gimmick, its pretty cool though.

I passed but have been unable to register. Anyone have any luck registering?

I passed this morning, but waited for a couple minutes, while the dharma logo was swirling around,but got no confirmation? I gave an e-mail address too, but have not heard anything more.

Probably. Those that scored "low" (whatever that may be) will get job offers as workers........or worse yet......red shirts!

I passed....surprise surprise lol

A couple of questions....what does the woman say during the test? I think its German, will have to look for a translation. Secondly, on going to the register form, a date of birth is already entered....July 17th 1978. Not sure if this is anything, but it might be worth noting.

SBP said:

Apparently the foreign language is Icelandic, and the translation is:

"Those who come to the Dharma Initiative will have to travel a long way across the sea at a considerable speed. Work will include being outdoors and physical labour. You may also experience some instability of time along the way. Hopefully you, like many others, feel that your social duty is more important than your personal safety."

Interesting, the idea that great speed is needed (to get to the Island). Perhaps the objective of the ARG is to get to the Island? (Perhaps we will journey with a 'hero' character (like Sam from last year's game, perhaps Ruckus Guy this year) as he joins Dharma and journeys to the Island. . . Just guessing here!

Oooh thanks AC!

I have successfully registered for the ARG. Does anyone know when it starts? Thanks for the translation AC.
Here is a screen shot of what I have so far.[img]

I noticed that, too. At first I thought it was 30 years...

Wait...

Could it be that date that the ***spoiler alert***


... the date the Pierre Chang message was supposedly sent?

Oh, so anyway, I took the test, I went through the reg process, I opted to upload an avatar pic, the pic caused a page error, and I couldn't register. Now I need to take the test again.

Word to the wise... skip the pic option.

Oh, and what's up with Card Number as an optional field? Is that the card you got id you completed it at ComiCon? If so... why would you be taking the test?

I didn't notice if there was a date already on there, I went ahead and put in mine. They also assigned me a card#.
I also clicked on what is this? and got this

Really like your new avatar Caged.

Yeah, I thought I'd try to be the first to jump on an avatar based on the "new" Dharma symbol. Kept it simple this time. Eventually, I know I'll have to do something with Faraday and the new trigrams.
