Ello as you can see, new here *points to post count*
Been a member (please note the absence of the word 'active') of neopets for about 5 years but yes this is my first plot. Horrid of me I know.
Either way I just thought of something (this might have been mentioned before or in fact it might just be my overactive imagination at work), the constellations above the heroes seem to be constellations of the heroes themselves (in the same way that scorpio resembles an actual scorpion.)
I haven't been able to fully test my theory (I'm at work and I don't have access to my precious Photoshop and its half transparent layers. I've only been able to put the two pictures next to each other in paint and they seem to match up somewhat.) Even if my theory is correct...I can't honestly see how that helps.
If Neopets -have- in fact already updated the plot...they've been horribly sneaky about it, and I have absolutely no idea in what way they've updated.
***On an off topic note*** Isn't it amazing how this plot seems to bring us inactivies out of the woodwork
.
Edit: Oh yes... as for the sundial theory, well I somehow doubt they brought time into play if they did I hardly think they would've allowed it for it to always be night in the observeratory and as far as I've seen, always day in the hall. {Amazing the time of day changes from room to room, I want a house like that.}
Also (I might be speaking out of ignorance here but) shouldn't a sundial have a center piece that actually casts a shadow?
