# The Lost Desert plot has come to an end. Check out Chapter 18 to read the conclusion.

# We are proud to announce the official unveiling of Qasala. Now you can visit Qasala whenever you wish and buy all sorts of things from the city's vendors.

# Two_lil_azns' Minigolf Spotlight is for those golfers who don't like to do much walking.

# Inside Qasala you will find all kinds of unique things including Qasalan Delights, which sells all kinds of delicious Qasalan foods.

# With the curse on Qasala lifted, the puzzle portion of the plot is now over! Congratulations to everyone who braved the Temple of 1,000 Tombs, dug in the sand and endured the Foreman for hours on end, and read more scrolls than all the Repository librarians combined! We'll have fancy trophies and prizes for everyone once we tally up all the points for all possible steps in the puzzle. There were quite a few. ;)

# Since Jazan did end up saving Neopia after all, we have updated his Gallery of Evil entry.

# You can now have this rather splendid Qasalan scene as your Desktop Background.

# We have just added five new Poems to the gallery.

# Like Brightvale, the people of Qasala pride themselves on their knowledge and the local book shop - Words of Antiquity is second to none.

# The newest Faerie Caves Spotlight award goes to itominion_returns for creating Ancient Mines in Faerieland.

# The Safety Deposit Box has been updated! It should now be easier to navigate with less clutter, and searching has been given a bit of a speed boost.

# Budding Battledomers should pay a visit to the Desert Arms they may pick up all kinds of unusual weapons and armour there.

# Crooks and thieves best steer clear of Grover07, the latest Site Spotlight winner.

A once again rushed ending? Meh, it's okay I guess.

I want a trophy, though. :P

I, personally, liked the ending, and indeed the whole plot.
It's the best they've ever done and I'd like to say to TNT, good job.

Safety deposit box is somewhat nicer now. However, we cant search for the number of items with a certain word in it in neopets anymore. Guess i'll have to go back to neoitems.

I'm depressed with the weak ending. :cry: It would have been so much better if Nabile had died, just to stir things up. :(

Please make the Lost Desert maps HTML! I can't bear using the flash versions! >__> And they forgot to put the Fruit Machine back on.

The fruit machine is in the City of Sakhmet ^^ I'm hoping for html maps too but considering I sent feedback on the shops map and LD map saying so (as did many others) I don't see it happening :(

oO Didn't know they stuck everything in there. :oops: Makes sence though.

...

I don't know what to say, I'm speechless.
Honestly, I think the ending might have been a bit more ...interesting and detailed. o_O

I hope they bring the HTML format back for that and the main shops map too, as Flash is hating Firefox on my computer now (even though I've installed it, flash doesn't show up!). Oh well, time to log on in IE.

no flash on firefox:

If you can't see the flash stuff on Firefox, you need to do the following:

In your browser window, in the menu along the top,
-Click on Tools
-Click on Adblock
-Click on Preferences
-Click on Adblock Options
-Click on Obj-tabs (uncheck it)

Voila. Flash-a-rooni.

You have saved me from using IE!! :hug:

And back on topic: I'm very happy with the LDP. I think it was the most well thought-out plot we've had in a long, long time. I can't wait to see what comes next as far as plots and puzzles are concerned!

So, the Lost Desert plot has finished.
Um.
Woo?

I was so hoping for a royal smack-down of epic proportions.
Guess i'll have to play Balurs gate and off a few Bhaalspawn instead.

Yay! My first post was useful! :D

Weak Ending. Bad Plot. Would-Be-Bad Prizes. I hate this plot :(
