Well, I've mapped most of mine now, up to 72 rooms (though I'm still missing a library door). I've noticed a couple things about it. First, I've only found one series (next to each other using the arrows) of rooms so far that loops into itself, and it was only two rooms. Second, it looks like every room has exactly the same number of open doors into it as out, and related to this, it looks like all the passages are two-way - that is, if you go through a door into a room, there will be one door in that room that will take you back to the one you just came from. I can't be absolutely sure that's always the case, but it sure looks like it at this point.
I haven't done any kind of real analysis on the colors/shapes/symbols yet, but I'm starting to wonder whether (and it seems like some of you are already assuming this) the temple has every possible combination of the three. That would be 6*4*12, or 288, which divided by 84 (someone said they had that many rooms) is 3.4-ish which seems like a reasonable average of closed doors per room.
Just a bunch of speculation...
I'm still not in bed.
I do think there is every possible combination of room/color/shape. I just wasn't 100% positive, since I didn't actually count. They did all seem to be there, though.
The map is in fact nice ... that all passages are two way. You can always return to the room you can from (the door may not be in the same "place" ... but one of the doors will return you). I had mentioned that earlier, for people wanting to start mapping. Makes it a little easier ... I hate those maps where there are 1 way passages.
72 rooms. Looks like 12 or 13 to go! nice!
