Lost marathon on SciFi, filming again soon
August 7th, 2008 by CarynBeen missing Lost (and, uh, my postings on this blog...riiiight)? WELL, if you want a marathon, the Sci Fi channel will be airing four episodes of Season 4 every Monday starting September 15th. Cool! It'll be especially valuable if the reruns are the ones with pop-up factoids, etc that showed before new episodes this past season.
Word is also out that filming/production is slated to begin again within the next couple of weeks. This means that if you see filming in progress, let us all know here on the the blog! Better yet, take a few pictures and email them to me so I can post them. It's always fun seeing the places we visit every day here transformed on primetime television.
Some other news: sources say that we can expect 2 new characters this season. As if we don't already have enough characters, right? They do sound interesting, though, so I don't mind--as long as they live up to their hype...
Last thing: I got another email from Octagon Global Recruiting. I am no internet whiz, and the link they originally sent led to an 'error' page that was just beyond me. HOWEVER, I thought I'd try the link again to put it on this post, and viola! we have a real site now...a pretty cool one, too. 
After the intro, if you click 'new recruit', you are prompted to take a sometimes-amusing, sometimes-creepy 'Eligibility Test'.
I 'passed'. Anyone else try it and 'fail'?

I passed. Yeah the test was kind of weird. A lot of them I was like, uh, none of these answers fit.

I passed too, the questions were kinda blade-runnerish. Starting to wonder if i'm a replicant or not...

chadepp the replicant, haha!
maybe it passes all of us, because it's just another Dharma experiment to see what we will do...hmmm

I passed too. Would be really interesting if this site got sophisticated enough to show you different things (and restrict you from other things) based on your answers. That would mean different people would see different content.
This could probably be done if they focused on three of the 17 questions. Since there are four responses to each question, they'd have to create 4 x 4 x 4 = 64 different types onf content based on people's responses. The remainder of th3 14 questions would be simply irrelevant.

We went to the LOST open call. It was a really long, hot wait. I think my makeup was melted off my face when it came time to take our pictures.

Got an e-mail from Dharma yesterday, I almost missed it in the Bulk folder!
Anyway if you go back to the recruitment site it says "Volunteer Assessment Commences 08-19-08". So I guess we check back tomorrow to see what they want us to do.

Caryn-
Thank you for coming to our blog party and sharing your wonderful vocals! Oh my! Incredible!!!
You must come to our other functions throughout the football season!
Eh, and how come you and Kelli made a quick "exit stage left" without giving anyone a chance to say goodbye? =(
Ayah!
