Altador Plot (68th split)

[Ixistant]

..I'm stuck at the Rock Quarry part. What does it mean by click at the center of the quarry? I've run my mouse over everything, exited and re-entered the quarry many times, and even done that jamming the rock into the gear and reclaiming it part.

Is there anything specific I'm looking for? >>;

It's like it says. The spot shall be in the middle of the quarry. If you're having trouble finding it, even after tabbing through the links, then it may not be there. I had to go to the basement and jam my rock in a gear then remove it before the spot would appear.

I was trying to figure out why 52, 143 spells? Such a weird number.

So I factored it down to:

3 * 7 * 13 * 191

It just seemed like an odd assortment of prime numbers.
Any thoughts? Does everyone have the same number of spells in their books?

Everyone has the same number of spells, I think. As for why 52, 143, its been speculated that they just rearranged the numbers 12345. I don't think its overly important.

nominating self for airhead of the month award...

went crazy trying to make the dreamer coordiates work for the sleeper..

for all those like me the sleeper is the V shaped constellation for the dark faerie.

I tried all of the anagrans of 52143, and none of them was the correct spell.

[Duopnotti]

You people are absolutely brilliant for coming up with that theory. I just got home and saw all the excitement and I was all like YAY!

But I'm having a little problem with the coordinates, because the y-cords add up to 19 for me =S

Here are mine: (-86, 330), (-46, 300), (-6, 270), (34, 270), (74, 300), (114, 330)

The x's add up to 12, and the y's to 19. I checked twice. I think I'll check from 12x6 through 12x21 anyway, but help would be nice =P

um ..your ys add to 9 not 19 for your x i would try 84 12 and 3

Wow. I feel so stupid right now. Thanks, I'll check it out. Thanks to you too, Jeanna and hammy1142mek!

ETA: I found it! WH00T! Finally, after an entire day of searching, which ended up being useless btw. It was the first book on 84x9. Wow. I really am an idiot. 19, honestly...

what I don't understand, and I know this is stupid is that I have my coordinates

42,16
82, -14
122, -44
162,-44
202,-14
242, -16

852=room 15
132=room 132 or room 6

My question is : do I go 15 rooms NORTH or 15 rooms EAST and so on?

Reposting hoping someone can help, this thread moves so fast.

Go to your archives and move one room in any direction. Then go to your URL, find where it says 'arx' or something like that and replace the number after the equals sign with 15. Then find 'arcy' and put 6 after that. Then search that room.

Thank you for your help, but it's still not working. I've tried
15-6
6-15
15-132(no clickable books)
132-15
15-13

So I have a couple of questions to whoever may be able to answer them.

1. Does it matter in which direction you read the books in once your in the room, like clockwise or counter-clockwise around the room?

2. Do the bookshelves only have one clickable book on them a piece?

3. Does it matter if you have to reload the page? Will it mess thing's up to where you have to start over again/

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I could be barking up the wrong tree, but I don't think we should be randomly guessing spell numbers. OR working through them methodically. I think all those different spell results are just ways of saying 'nope, think again!' I reckon we need to find the clue before the 'correct' spell will work.

What's the clue? No idea.

1. Nope.

2. They have DOZENS. You really can't do it by pointing your mouse at books - you need to TAB through the page, hitting Enter on each link that appears one at a time. PM me if you don't understand this.

3. Don't think it matters. Which book is the right one shouldn't change.

Hmm it *might* be important...

It's a small, weird shaped spot right in the middle of the image. Using the tabbing technique you can get it outlined if its there (IE at least, FF has the outlines a lot less visible).

Also, I think that when it's there, the passage to the wall won't be. Don't quote me on that though.

Yeah I dunno what I kept doing wrong but make sure that when clicking the janitor you see him and not the ceiling, the rock isn't jamming a gear, and then look at the centre of the quarry, slightly near the jubjubs and it's there - also don't forget to take back the rock you threw immediately after getting the next rock

[acerimusdux]

Is there a specific number of books in each room?
Like 32, maybe?

[Ixistant]

Personally, I don't think we can go any further now. Much like the archives, we won't be able to find the correct spell until the next part is released.

And I think that we'll have to use the spellbook in conjunction with the Necklace.

[Jeanna]

There's 31 in each room, mostly one on each shelf.

[spudge]

All the way through spell 2,800 with no results so far.

I'm going now about 1-5 per second.

[fredleymedley]

even if you did 2000 a day it would take you a month, there is a clue somewhere we're not seeing, similar to sleeper im thinking
