Upon trying the link to http://oesregistration.webs.com/index.htm, it displays

Registration Form:
Registration is complete. Thank you.


Maybe I just hit an error and misinterpreted it.

me: Hello again.
I have a question for you. Just came to my mind.
quistarktan: Go ahead.
me: What is the "ultimate sin" that your forefathers commited?
quistarktan: Suicide.
me: Ah.
My condolences/
quistarktan: I did not know them.
me: Ah.
And when did this happen?
quistarktan: OES has existed for much too long for me to know the forefathers.
Sent at 2:12 PM on Saturday
me: Interesting. When was OES formed?
quistarktan: Long ago.
me: And does OES stand for Our Enlightened Society?
Sent at 2:14 PM on Saturday
quistarktan: Sometimes.
me: does that mean AOES is Associates of Our enlightened Society?
When OES doesn't mean Our Enlightened Society, what does it mean?
Sent at 2:17 PM on Saturday
quistarktan: Other things.
me: And although this obviously defeats the purpose of Phase/Part 3, who is Egdrish? I have no knowledge of him.
Sent at 2:19 PM on Saturday
quistarktan: If that is your response, you lose.
me: Fine, I'll back down.
And do some more research, I suppose.
quistarktan: You are now #3.
me: Fine.
quistarktan: The recruit will be chosen today.
There are three possibilities.
You are the third.
me: What time?
quistarktan: 2:23
of course
That would be EST
me: Twas about to ask that.
EST? I thought you lived in the UK. Did you convert it for my benefit, because if so, thank you.
quistarktan: You are welcome.
me: I must go again. Good day.

That makes sense, then. Very Happy

Looking forward to seeing what exactly he's going to ask of the recruit.

Really? What ARG was that?

And I'll be sure to ask. He or she or it seems to be a bit quiet now.


That was BaggaChippz from 'Contact with the Cupboard Castle'.

They were the sweetest snacks ever! Very Happy

And what does 2:23 EST mean? I have 20:44 here in Germany and can't find a converter that quickly now. When will that be (in mins)? Nevermind. 2:23 was already. Question answered:

Methinks Charish did Part 3. therefore, Charish is another dimensioner.

quistarktan: I believe I have 'spread the news' sufficiently. Should you feel the need to continue speaking with them, feel free. They are no longer tied to me.
me: Alright. Good day to you then.



Mizemotional, you HAVE to keep us in the loop! We must know!

Anyways, Trustiva, what was your answer?

I didn't exactly answer, per se. I asked how much information he wanted about Egdrish, and he replied:
quistarktan: The end of the question is not to reveal information to me about Egrish, but about yourself.

He confirmed that he is monitoring this chat, and stressed the importance of not leaking information, which is why I'm iffy about posting our chat in full. (Don't want to be a bad recruit...)

However, I seemingly 'passed' after I said this:

me: I feel, however, that I've exhausted my resources searching for Egdrish, at least the ones that came to me off the top of my head.
quistarktan: Very good. You have passed each phase beautifully. There is little chance you will not be chosen now.
