Lost Desert Plot Discussion #118 (Summary in First Post)

[Cilian]

Finally got my fourth crystal. Waiting for the light *twiddles thumbs*

You and me both, TDG. Last time my lisght came one was 3PM NST, so how much longer do I have to wait again? 6 or 8 hours?

8. You're looking at 11pm NST

This is going to sound silly, but does anyone have a simple way to map the temple that doesn't enrage me? Feel free to PM since while not off topic, it was stuff we dealt with 100 threads ago. Thank you.

I did mine by hand. Didn't even take up more than 1.5 pages. There are guides on the first post. If you don't want to get enraged, turn on History Channel or [AS], that kept me calm.

Thanks...so 2am in the morning. <dry>Great...</dry>
Meh... my last show for the night ends at 1:30 am, so staying up 30 more minutes is no prob. Then I'll be done with this, I hope....seems like we're done.

Oh we're done... but only for now. I still think the scroll may be the point of the weekend and new stuff will happen Monday so people have a chance to catch up.

1) Label your Tablet from left to right, top to bottom, with the order of your primary colors (check your source code if the blank "x" spots are confusing). Discard the symbols maked with "x". You should have 12.

2) Look up the Tablet symbol + color on your Card Catalog.

3) Note the order of the colors on your Crystal, from left to right.

4) Read your scrolls, according to the location in the Catalogs, in the order of your Crystal, but also from top to bottom within each Catalog. There should be 4 of each color.

Hope that helps. If not, check the First Post.

Is it bad I've noticed it's easier for me to do some of this stuff than to try to walk them through it?

anybody responding? (tumbleweed rolls)

[meresged]

Thank you guys.....I've tried so many combos!!!!

Not in the least. It is hard to explain stuff exactly as you want. The trick is to just keep trying and refining what you say until the person you're helping gets it.

Settle down. There is no real answer to your question. The lights are on all the time for somebody. You can only see them for three hours a day spread out at 8 hour intervals. Only way to know what your schedule is is to keep checking every hour. Then when they're on, you know your personal schedule.

Well, we can't, because it's random for everyone

Basically, try once an hour for 7 hours in a row, and it should appear during one of those hours.

the light comes on every 8 hours. Each person has 3 hours in the 24 that it comes on. To find your hour, refresh the map room once an hour until you find your hour. The light hour starts at the top of the clock hour.

So, what other theroies for the scroll are rolling around.. I went to genology records in the repostiory..

Looked at royal writings...

tried the faery prophesy...

Now I'm back haunting the boards..
