Question:

I have the cup thingy on the 2nd and 12th locations on my tablet.
I also have yellow dots on the 2nd and 12th locations of my lighted wall.
What do I do about it? Read the scroll tiwce?

Also to make sure I know what im doing:
My cyrstal is BRY.
My first blue as appears on the repo map is the eye(coltzan royal archives, room 932)
So I go to that room, find a blue eye, and click on it. then move to the next room and repeat? right?

YES! Finally finished! That only took a couple hours... *twitch*

Wow, I learned something new!

Your pet deciphers the scroll!

"A sharp eye holds the next step."

Thanks again Manila and XenaAndGabrielle for finding and confirming this!


Ok, let me see if I can explain what I did for those who are as confused as I was...

I think the easiest step is matching the colors on the wall with the symbols of the tablet. Everyone seems to be getting that down with no problem. So you end up with a chart of 12 color-symbol combinations (the 4 combos that match with an x, or blank on the wall, are discarded).

As for the crystal colors... mine was BYR, so I looked at the blue catalog first, and wrote down the 4 titles corresponding with my 4 blue-matched tablet symbols on my chart - in the order the symbols appeared IN THE CATALOG, not on the tablet. Repeated the process with the yellow catalog next, then with the red catalog.

Once I had all my 12 titles written down, I went looking for the first scroll on my list that matched the color AND symbol on my chart. So the first four scrolls I read were blue, the next four yellow, and the last four red. All in the same order as I had found them in the card catalog.

Sorry if this has already been explained a million times since I started my scroll hunt 2 hours ago. ^^;; But hopefully it helps someone out.

[edit: also, my last scroll did NOT match my Nuria symbol, and I didn't have any repeats... but if you get 2 scrolls in a row that are the exact same area, color, and symbol, I understand you just read it twice and continue down the list.]

This is odd

I was going to save the source code, as well as a screenie, just in case it was important. Can't open the page source code now. Anyone else with their colored lights going right now, would you see if you can access your source code? Maybe I have a wonky Net connection--or maybe source code access has been disabled.

You mean the last scroll of your sequence ... but in the temple?

I am planning on trying that before I go to bed.


no I meant because of the clue... A sharp eye holds the next clue

THIRD time is the charm. Yea, I messed up twice in a row going through all twelve scrolls. STOP LAUGHING!

After hours of scroll hunting on dial up, I finally got the sharp eye message :D And I can finally go pack my suitcase for Canada. I really hope nothing crazy and super important happens during the 4 day Greyhound ride x_x

By the way, if its still relevant, my last scroll wasnt my statue symbol.

clever. I think if it was pointing us to the next scroll ... they would have randomized it, though.

Whew, that was tedious. Finally, finally got my message...thanks to all, Mr. Insane included!! My eyes are going buggy but now to catch up on the posts I missed while wandering thru the scroll racks. Anything noteworthy?

Wed Nov 02, 2005 3:28 am

Yay, disciphered the scroll!

Thanks to those of you, specially manilla for figuring it out and clarifying.

Now on to figure out the next big break...

Yes, read the scroll twice. Makes it easier actually you have two less locations to go to.

I did too!! Now I'm stuck on a scroll that isn't there!! And I'm extremely frustrated!! :x

If anyone's still listening in, I need a yellow nem in Sakhmetian Special Collections, Selket Room. PLEASE!


Edit: Leaving and re-entering the room worked! :)
