Lost Desert Plot Discussion #114 (Summary in First Post)

[Huggles]

Bah. I still haven't come across a spike trap yet, and now that I've read on, I haven't been jellied yet either.

[endeavourl]

YES! finally got my crystal after about 20 tries!

Wow I thought my temple didnt have any spike traps...

Time to wait for my light to come on now.

I know this will confuse people, but I'll try to be as clear as I can. When working on the second batch of scrolls, when deciding which of the pair to read first, I've noticed that whichever color is from the more lefthand catalog is dominant. For example. My catalogs are RBY. When reading R and Y, I read R first. R and B, I read R first. I know this will be confusing, but it helped me not repeat scrolls once I saw it.
And if you mess up, it seems to reset after each completed trio. So you only have to start that pair of primaries again, not the whole 24.

*whimper* I'm so lost
okay, so I got my first crystal and light and everything, next fall into a spike trap, then what? I'm so confuzzled about the second light.

yes, if you mess up ... you just have to restart that pair of primaries. You don't need to start completely over.

Brilliant, thanks. And it made absolute pefect sense.

Honestly I'd still be floundering if it wasn't for you guys.

Edit Hehe just noticed I typed guts instead of guys. That's my favourite typo I've made so far.

wait, has there been progression? I just woke up--do we know what to do with the new colours from the second crystal? If so, why isnt it in the main post yet?
Can someone detail them for me, please?

It's not in the first post because progress has only just been made. If you read back through the previous few pages it's all been made as clear as it can be. If you can't understand it then ask.

As much as we try to add things ASAP, the morning hours aren't the prime time for quick updates. As it stands I need to go to class in about 10 minutes, however, I'll try and hover through the thread to see if I can post something thats concise and clear, but otherwise you'll just have to wait for another mod to add it, or wait an hour til I get back from class and do it

[jojoneo]

scott, pages 10 & 11 of the last thread were pretty concise (I though)

[Hystericalanduseless]

Quick question.

Do you read the scrolls in the order of your crystal?
ie) Yellow scroll, red scroll, blue scroll? Repeat 3 more times?

Or do you read the scrolls in order of your crystal BUT all grouped together?
ie) all yellow scrolls, than all red scrolls, than all blue scrolls?

Just quoting my last comment as it seems some people missed it.
I hate to be annoying, but I don't think it's that difficult of a question..
Plus, you're all ahead of me, so you probably all know ^.^
I'll love you forever if you lend me a quick hand on this.

So I got the "This clue does not exist." message and went to the jelly. But I see nothing about a crystal.

Is there something I have to do there?

EDIT: OH! Found it. I swear I'd clicked everywhere! O.O'

[norton4lf]

can the 3rd crystal be placed in SDB or Gallery?

[ssandgirls]

Hi everyone

Im a bit confused,

My catalog order is Red Blue Yellow

My tablet from the end left.

Old Color = Blue Ben
New Color = Purple Ben

So which do I read? People are saying there are 24 scrolls to read, but after taking out the blanks and ones that havent changed it only leaves 16... can someone clarify and tell me from that one above which scrolls I should read...

Many thanks.

SS:)

...wow. You're a kind one. Thanks...?

Now that you mention it, i'm still a little confused by how we figure out the non RBY colours' scrolls.
Could someone who doesnt mind answering questions shed a little light on this?
