I assume you're trying to enter the tomb, not just navigate the tomb. You have to wait the full time (1 hour for traps, 12 hours for scrolls) before you can get back in.

If it happened while you were navigating the tomb and you didn't click on a colored door with a symbol above it, then perhaps you clicked the Back button in your browser? (Don't do it! Trust me!)

I did click the back button... Is it that big of an oops?

Mapping problem solved...

has anyone read ALL the scrolls for ALL the symbols on his/her tablet? Maybe you need to "understand" all of them before anything happens.

I have been to the wishingwell over 50 times I have tried asking for a Hieroglyph Fragment, a dirty stone fragment, a stone fragment, and a tablet fragment. Nothing works for me. I have offered as much as 1000 NP and as little as 10. I have also just tried refreshing where it says thank you for your donation. I did go back to the fortune teller before I started and refreshed untill she gave me the clue. So what am I doing wrong? I have used all lower case and just capitalized the first letter of each word. Any suggestions? I have put out some seriouse NP on this clue and still nothing.

You can only "understand" the scroll that corresponds to the symbol on your faerie statue. Others (including stamp, just now) have tried scrolls that appear on their tablet but not the statue, and just got the normal message.

Yes. You see, your location in the tomb is stored on the Neopets server. Each door has a number. When you click on a door, it sends the number to the server. If you click back, the server still thinks you were in the last room, even if your browser is displaying a different room. So you are really going through a door in the room you were just in.

Does that make any sense?

I've seen people say they have 8 distinct symbols on their tablet. Is there anyone who doesn't have 8 distinct symbols (meaning four of the symbols are a duplicate of another on the tablet)?

Make sure you go to the fortune teller each time before trying wishing again, maybe that will help?

Once you get to the "Thanks for your donation page", scroll to the bottom... that's where my parchment was.

Has anyone who read a scroll after completing their tablet read the one their pet understands? (I'm trying to decide if I should try reading it again now that my tablet is complete but don't want to if it's already been tried and had nothing happen.)

edit: nevermind :oops:

I looked at some of the other posts earlier and it looks like someone did and it didn't make any difference
