Phew I'm almost done mapping, good thing there aren't really 1000 tombs in the temple, I'd never finish

Yeah, I've been mapping on and off for 3 days now because so far I haven't run into the need to finish the map. In any case, I have 25 more rooms to go.

Geez, I'm wasting my whole day doing this... lol.

Yeah it's amazing how much time this is taking, 3 hours later and I still can't find my 2nd door *cries* so many doors.., I'm gonna have nightmares tonight of being chased by green triangles with paws

Same here! Green pentagon with squigles.
I clicked on a black hall door, and it led me to a trap!!! What's with that???

Apparantly clearing your cache should fix it.

Did anyone else have a problem where they'd click on a hallway/door and wind up directed to the Neopets front page?

I have heard of other people on other boards also having trouble with trapped passageways. They seem to be very rare, and we're not even sure they are real or a result of neo being very laggy/page loding from cache issues. But it seems more and more that they are real.

Yes, once that did happen to me, but I hit the back key(the only time I hit the back key) and got back to the tomb with no problems

Now another hour till I can continue mapping!!!

Woo, finally found my second piece! Poogle races here I come!

Great, first I'm locked out because of a library scroll, now I can't catch any fish because it's too close to my last one (sometime before I last left, around 1pm NST, great timing, ya?)

*surveys fishing waters, trying to determine the best spot to drop a depth charge into it* That'll bring up a fish or two!

Ok, I found my 2nd parchment & recovered the stone from the room. But when I took it to the Toy Repair Shop, the guy broke it into Rubble. Now what?? Do I go back to the same room I found it in and try again??

As promised in my rather wordy post from the last thread ( http://www.pinkpt.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... ht=#441334 ) ... but I have scanned in a page from my map ... and I show below what it actually looks like.

(There are 4 pages that look like this ... I've only bothered to scan one of them).

It was not a very hard map to make ... but it does takes a little longer to figure out where you want to end up. No fancy colors, no fancy graphics, no fancy maps ... just a simple guide to travel around the temple with. A low tech solution to all these beautiful maps I see others have made.

I always just find the door I want ... and then slowly move backwards until I can get to my room 1. I have a few rooms I consider "hubs" (meaning ... easy to get to ...) ... so I just look for paths back to them. (My room 40 is pretty easy to get to ... and then it is easy to get back to 1)

Smaller version is shown below ... and a bigger version can be seen HERE

Sigh...how many times has this been answered?

Go back to the temple. If your wait hasn't ended, you'll be right back at the trap page where you left, and you'll get your piece again. Not sure what to do otherwise

Yes

I've still not found my statue...

However, my map is nearly complete, and I just have to go to my 1st clue room to start gathering pieces.

[sinacsupul]

With all the extra time it should be quite easy to finish mapping. I am almost done. The most tedious point is telling where each door goes. After that I will be done. I found all 4 pieces. My statue and 3 libraries. I just hope that it becomes more of a challenge. I think that kau fortune teller is up to no good but thats just me maybe i should keep the mysterious tablet... hmmm...

[archergirl2000]

Yay got my third piece of parchment and of course the door I need to find I haven't mapped yet ^_^;;

I'm considering redoing my map because I changed methods halfway through

[guy679]

Oh man!I can't believe i've missed the other threads. Can't believe you guys post that much.
