I didn't receive the email, but I'm scanning darkufo as well. In addition to the youtube link (alert 2) in the source code is:

someone on youtube noted that "Banks Claw" is an anagram for "Black Swan", a quick google search revealed this intriguing little gem:

Maybe only the people who signed up for OGR but haven't registered to DWY get emailed.

Banks Claw? Like Dr. Claw who robbed banks in Inspector Gadget ?
Nevermind. Black Swan....got it.
KLind...I signed up via Octagon, not Dharma, but I also registered right when the site opened, so maybe it was trying to get folks who hadn't seen the site debut?
EDIT: I JUST GOT ONE ALSO.

On another site someone mentioned that The default birthday is July 17, 1978.

30 years ago, hence the comic con video.
That was a damn good catch...
who's the female? jennifer?
Well there was a baby in the background of the comic-con video, and the voice behind the camera sounded like Faraday. Are they trying to point us to the baby being Charlotte? The age would match, in the show's timeframe she'd be about 27?
And it could be why Faraday has feelings for her, he knew her a long time ago.
Edit: Scratch this, apparently in the video Cheng refers to the baby as 'him.'

Ridley from theFuselage.com was able to translate the female voice:
Quote:
"The language spoken during the test is Icelandic. Here's what's being said (the bit in brackets is a bit hard to hear, so could be wrong):
Þeir sem koma að dharmaverkefninu munu þurfa ferðast yfir hafið um langan veg á umtalsverðum hraða. Vinnan mun fela í sér útiveru og líkamlegt athæfi. Þú munt jafnvel einnig geta upplifað [óstöðleika á tímanum á samfylgdinni]. Vonandi ert þú sem og margir sem finnst vinnan mikilvægari en persónulegt öryggi þitt.
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 labor. 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."
Why did they use icelandic language? Do we have any connections to Iceland yet?

Got the email since I was unable to take the test yesterday, I guess.
Well, I'm all signed up now, and poking around the page.
