Before you created this puzzle were you aware of the words 'Leob Fostat'? no Or did you make up the words for the puzzle? If you were, were they spoken? written? On a computer screen? The words in themselves exist and I came across them when using the net and In a dream? | ||

Erm...when you came across them did you know what they were referring to? Do you have any specialist knowledge that the rest of us probably won't? | ||

Were the words on the actual web site (as opposed to source code or something)? Were they a link? A user name? The name of a room, page, or section of the site? Would it help to determine the type of site you were on (informational, commercial, e-tail, personal, etc.)? | ||

Could we have a re-cap or a hint please I'm completely question-ed out!! certainly  Here we have two words which I came across on a website which I found by accident but the website is pretty irrelevant. The words are exactly how I found them in the correct spelling, they are not a code, cipher or acromym etc, they are yesishly names of some sort, the meaning behind each one needs to be discovered. Spelling and grammar are not relevant to this puzzle. | ||
