Lost Desert Plot Discussion #75 (Summary in First Post)

[craftdee]

he's moving much more quickly/frequently now, isn't he?

i think the number at the top of the furniture screen either correlates to how much furniture you've moved already, or how many of what you're holding (ie rack, table) that you've moved. that means everyone's amount is different... but it should constantly go up. is this true?

obviously it's probably in some sort of code =p but maybe a math manipulation will tell you what it means (like for wheel of monotony time)

I am beginning to believe that the numbers relate to the floor you have been sent to.

So, what do I do now..... Decorator sent me to the 3rd floor to place a table and there are no spaces for one and the ones that are there are sticking....grrrrrrr. lol Guess I will cool my heels here for awhile.

I'm stuck with a table on the 2nd floor. There are only 2 table slots on the whole floor, both next to the stairs. If someone could clean them it would be very helpful.
Thanks

Well you can get rid of it by returning it to the ten and have a half hour wait. That's what I've done a couple times.

BTW please don't double post, if you have additional comments add it to the previous post using the "edit" button.

[IanB]

Never mind about the tables, it looks like I cleaned them for someone else as the're both now taken Looks like I'm for the penalty box

That wasn't an additional comment. That was something else but on the same lost desert topic. I do choose edit when I am adding to the same subject.

So you were wrong in combining my posts...or are we all supposed to just keep editing our firt post. Happy to oblige.

I am sorry to have mucked up the works like that...I didn't even stop to look to ensure that there was a divider post. It will not happen again. I assure you.

I went back down to the decorator and then back to the third floor and was then able to place the table.

In all situations, you can only have one adjacent posts, no matter what the subject is.

anyway, i just blew both my theories on the numbers. here are some examples of mine:

both times i got racks
1st time:
leaving tent: 750377
after talking to ID: 959755 (goes on 1st floor)
after placing: 870162

2nd time:
leaving tent: 209341
after talking to ID: 433813 (goes on 4th floor)

i haven't placed it yet, but i don't see anything other than randomness. maybe it has to do with ALL the furniture in the ENTIRE repository, but i don't think i'd figure it out.

plus, i talked to the ID 3 times for that last piece, and each time, the number changed. once it only had 5 numbers. i'm lost.

Well, here are my numbers, 11th of each item but they are just talking to the decorator

Scroll rack
ldp_sr_x15=782403 first floor

Stand lamp
ldp_sr_x15=425988 second floor

Table
ldp_sr_x15=150308 third floor
ldp_sr_x15=641112 third floor same item recheck

Bench
ldp_sr_x15=315898 basement

Where has the ID gotten to now?

[cardpaste22]

its taking me so long to go in and out of the repository, is there a way to get kicked out after u've put down ur furniture? id rather put down furniture in right spot, then get kicked out somehow, wait lockout time, get mor furn and repeat process.

[everconfused]

card, unless you place the furniture in the wrong spot you will have to find your way back out. After you do this, say 50 times or so, you will know how to get out!

Yep, the ID has moved again, Basement, Row 32, column 5

[Hystericalanduseless]

I hate when the ID is in the basement.. Arr..

Just a quick question, where are you guys getting all these numbers from?!

[succubusxo]

eesh... what happens if you didnt go to the ruki tent first and then enter the scroll repository? what do you do?

the problem isn't finding my way out, i hav that down pact, the problem is that my comp/internet is so slow that it takes me an hour to get out of the repository after ive placed my furn

I think you just go back out and back to the tent
