Well, I got two emails from Nyxtel:

Quote:
Thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.

We are not authorized to provide detailed technical information on the satellite to outsiders. All the publically available information is on the website, whatever little of it there is.

And the proper form to identify the satellite is "CSat-I". If the website says anything to the contrary, please let us know in which location and it will be corrected, and we apologize for the sloppiness of substandard, third party web designers.

Once again, thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.

----------
Comment:

Just a question; do you have any more details on the technical specifications of the satellite?


I didn't send this one, but I got the reply anyways:

Quote:
Thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.

The image is an oversight from the web developers who designed the application. It has nothing to do with the Nyx Telecommunications executive hierarchy and was merely a placeholder during site development. Please disregard it.

We cannot provide you further information at this time.

Once again, thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.

Comment:Hello.

I noticed an odd image in your site:

I'm curious to know who this is. Sorry if this seems frivolous.

A more serious question: How do we make use of our encryption keys?

That was my reply. I don't know why you'd get it as well. I signed up for recruitment, but I haven't heard anything yet.

I think it's a family firm, hence the shared name.

What's up with this page?

In case no one noticed. Currently, this page shows:
http://www.nyxtel.net/Images/Moon/Moon02.jpg

But there are much more images showing all moon phases up to:
http://www.nyxtel.net/Images/Moon/Moon29.jpg

Spec: I think
- either it's a counter of some sort,
- or, as the moon is clickable, the link could be leading to a special page when it's showing a certain moon phase.

google search again...

FYI: The sponsored link at google not only links to www.nyxtel.net , but to http://www.nyxtel.net/Recruit.aspx?Src=Facebook which made me do a Facebook search for the company and the Nyx familiy members, but to no avail.

FYI, the Keys on the LB control panel are now up for download.

EDIT: nevermind, these are the same as the ones we were given on that flash drive.

Just got a message from Adam

Quote:
We have gotten an amazing response to our call for recruiting; amazing what a little publicity can do.

We are currently researching each and every one of you, acquiring the necessary information in order to make educated decisions and determine exactly how this recruiting process will proceed. You will be soon contacted by our general purpose Recruiting Services department, and perhaps soon you can join the ranks of the Nyx Telecommunications elite.

This is an exciting time for us; with the launch of the CSat-I satellite we will have an unprecedented level of coverage over all of North America, making us one of the most prominent communications carriers in the world. And with that responsibility comes the need for additional personnel in order to maintain our infrastructure and a quality level of service.

Once again, thank you for your interest in Nyx Telecommunications. Once we have done our research, Recruiting Services will proceed with you all.

Thank You

Adam Nyx
Chief Operations Officer

I got the 'research' message as well.

Also, I sent out this question:

Quote:

Hello.

I have heard that there are connections between Nyx Telecommunications and the BlueGenics Research Institute. Is this true, and if so, what is the nature of those connections?


And got this response:

Quote:
Thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.

There is absolutely no connection or involvement between Nyx Telecommunications and that institute to which you refer.

If you have any information to the contrary of that, please contact CorpSec with the details and they will begin an investigation.

We cannot provide you further information at this time.

Once again, thank you for contacting Nyx Telecommunications.


It looks as though they are concerned about espionage.

Hey guys. I signed up for this, but I've been quite busy lately, so I haven't had enough time to play.
Anyways. I got this in my email today. I'm not sure if someone else has gotten it yet, since I haven't read up on this yet (shame on me! *hits self*). Don't kill me if it's old news <.<

In the subject line it said "You've got to want to succeed". It was sent by the same address as the other pictures, chiaro.oscurosSPLATgmail.com.

@ AzureWolf the company I work for has a CorpSec Division for data security (Passwords, offsite access to the intranet). We also have Protection and Saftey which is personal security (Access cards Parking permits)

So it doesnt strike me as odd that they have the same name for Nyxtel and BG.

Yeah I thought of that too...that it was just the language of corporations...but this IS a game and coincidences should be pointed out Smile

But thanks for confirming that it probably is just a coincidence.

Also, waitress had a thought on IRC, what if they use the same company for security...and they go by the name Chiaro...
