Now you're bringing out my OCD. I'm thinking something along those lines, too, but BEGIN_QUES has too many letters, assuming the pattern continues.


P.S. I may well be a robot driven by a little guy in my head. The above stands as possible proof.

There is the same "log in" type page for each of the planets from the other puzzle/clue...

Alright, I didn't notice that anyone had posted this, so here goes:
Underneath the name of each page, just above the red text, is a different... er, sector (for lack of a better word) of DecepTech.

Magrathea - Research and Development Services
Persephone - Inventory Management Services
Arrakis - Climate Control, Environmental Simulator 1-A
Hoth - Primary Cooling Control
Kashyyyk - Server Redundancy Management Server
Pern - Transportation Services
Azeroth - Virtual Reality Simulator 1-A

I dunno if this means anything, but it could be important...ish.

[speculation]
Another thing, where it says 'another warrior is on the mesa', could that mean that there is another 'sector'? So far we have found 7, and as there are 8 of those chevrons... maybe each chevron corresponds to a 'sector' of DecepTech and we have to find one more, or something like that. I dunno. Too tired to think.
[/speculation]

Seven sectors

Oh great, another countdown...

If six geese-a-laying is next, then I'm afraid it'll be a really long wait.

Ok....
Maybe grabbing at straws here but..
on twitter..
"A sign of the apocalypse: I'm seriously considering getting an iPhone. Start stocking up on canned food and shotguns, people! It's coming!!!"

-----

On blog it says that something CAN be found if we know where to look...

If you google part of the error message from main page... you find this page...http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=650214

I'm still looking, but the title of the topic is "A sure sign of the apocalypse:"
I haven't checked through it yet, but there is a posted reply from a screen name "hawk"..

more crumbs??

So, you think this may be IG?

***NEVERMIND***

Blessings in disguise

Wow, busy 6 hours since I last checked on here.

The good news, I think, is that we can't log in yet, so there's no point wasting time worrying about log-ins and such. That said, there are still gaps in that original message... I'm suspicious that there isn't more to the "Boot-up" page than meets the eye. Plus, that all-enticing line: "There's always something to find if you look in the right places." I wish I knew more about programming.

I've look through the source pages of all of the sectors--nothing to report, though if there's anything unusual in the Javascript I could be missing it.

One other thing. Looking at the Boot-up page, I noticed what I'm guessing are two names at the end of the second line:
R. Summers/B. Nitbo

Also on that line is the date:
1/13/2008
(I note the 8 because when I first looked at it, I assumed '09.)

Might be important, might not. But if R. Summers or B. Nitbo show up later, we know where they've been.

Hmmmmm....

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
So on Facebook, on a whim, I searched for Deceptech. Name that comes up, Jennifer Summers, with Deceptech as her job. Area: Orlando Florida, remarkably close to where OFL's base of operations is. And the word Summers is in the boot screen. So I don't know whether or not to friend her, because coincidences don't IG make...

There's also an RSummers twitter. But that doesn't really lead anywhere...
