The part that seems out of place is the name of the person that asked the question is Sinhound....if you check her page...her account was made a week ago or so...is it possible the neostaff is trying to lead us in the right dirrection?
No one's answered you so far. I wish I knew more about these things. From what I've read here, a lot of "clues" like this turned out to be false leads. But I don't know. I wrote something about the Darkest Faerie info in the Neopian Times earlier, and I hardly got any response either.

TNT has used false accounts before as red herrings in plots, but afaik they haven't had any actual parts of plots which involved a Neopian account in any useful way.
I don't see how the fact that someone with a week-old account was asking a plot question will be a 'clue'. This and the other NT thing would be far too obvious.

the quest for the crown quest; you had to look up Heermeedjit's "account" for a clue.
and the sloth plot, i think....

Yes, TNT has used accounts for clues and what not, but they have been old accounts, and not week-old ones. This was discused ten or so threads back after a user posted a poem on their petpage.

Also during the Lost Desert plot and during this one, there hasn't been anything involving other accounts or source codes. I think it would be weird for TNT to hide clues for the last part of the plot in a place that is not on the Altador map. Though I usually check the source code of pages anyway

I think that we can ignore it. sinhound probably just happened upon it and it has no relevance whatsoever to the Altador plot.

I have however managed to flood altador five times now. Bah.
Rayen, I PMd you. Willing to help with the Mad Plumber Wizard if you need. I never flooded Altador with this method, and it is very hard to do that if you are refreshing one *action* then another, for if your starting point always has one down, and you change each different action in almost any sequence, one after the other, there should always be one valve or switch to the off position. Perhaps try opening up those eight URLs again, making sure you are refreshing the same *action* and not the *room* with the Refresh key or button (not the link above the pictures), then simply refresh "page/action" one after the other, all the way down the line?
It should be noted that IE and Avant seem to not load the "congrats" page but you can still fix the plant without this redirect. Just look for the words below the pictures, and you should eventually find them telling you not to mess with the plant anymore (and thank goodness you can't anyway).

In fact, weren't the accounts older-than-possible? Like, a week before neopets went public? Just to set them appart?

why would a week old accounter be looking thro source codes neway? im guessing its a new account for a past neopets user as when i was first new to neopets i spent my time getting used to everything, not looking through all the source codes and writing to the editorial o.O

or maybe she is so obsessed with it that she is looking for clues or cheats.
I just neomailed her. I'll post when I get a reply
I said "There's a lot of confusion about your editorial. Why were you looking through source codes?"

Possibly, just saying that if she was a brand new user I doubt she would be, your first week (tpically) is used getting used to the site and how it works and playing heaps of games since they are all new to you.. was for me neway

That's true, so it's probably atleast her second account.
Great

I can't wait for Altador's constalation.....an arrowbow and an arrow is his constalation.
Sun May 21, 2006 9:38 am
I don't think it really matters why she was looking through the scorce codes. It won't affect anything if we find out.
And yes, I believe that the accounts were older than possible, though I don't remember.

As I have to force myself the exasperated sigh of another tiny possibility becoming a popular topic, I can't help but wonder as to why? Why does everyone have to take any slight coincidence as a possible clue? Perhaps I have become so annoyed at the way people seem to leech onto anything tied to Altador released on Neopets because it takes away from my favorite thing to do in times like this: SPECULATE!!!!
I'd almost be willing to bet that the pattern for our next constellation is in the very Hall of Heroes itself. If you can't guess from that hint, here's another: The writing's on the wall. Give up, it's that off-colored tile with the squiggles on it, but a look at the squiggles shows that they resemble a bow and possibly an arrow! I've been suspect of that slab since I first noticed it and after finding out that the plot went further in depth than I had first thought, figured it to be the hiding place of the Hunter's constellation.
The big question is: By what series of mysterious events does it come to be important? I theorize that when the next clue is released, it will start in the library, which will give us either a single statue or combination of statues on which to put the amulet. Once the amulet is properly placed, the magic that had lit the gems above the statues will be restored. In the process, something mysterious will happen with the forementioned slab, which will reveal to us the constellation.
