Y'know... if we don't figure it out - TNT will just release more clues untill we do... XD *lol* My happy-go-lucky way of thinking about it. :3

I highly doubt they'd be like "Oop, five people figured it out... let's just skip the rest of neopia". They KNOW that way of thinking gets a LOT of very very very annoyed players banging on their doors. X3

Blah, just my opinion though... only saying it in hopes that thought might help someone else relax. Remember people, stress can kill. 0:)

My thoughts? I think a lil more waiting might be needed.

EDIT: Annnd I'm beginning to wish the cards weren't released before the plot. They haven't helped solve anything yet and have only ruined the storyline aspect thus far. :cry:

Mysterious Tablet

All of the tablet's missing pieces have been found!

Now that you've examined the symbols, the meaning of the tablet slowly becomes clear. The translation reads:

The ancient prince will make vanish the desert capital

Anyone know what the translatinos mean?

It's supposed to be forshadowing for Chapter 5 when Jazan (the ancient prince) used his magic to make Sakhmet (the desert captial) disappear.

This is what I posted earlier: The Fortune Teller says, "I don't know when the project is starting, though." This implies that it does not yet exist, but that it will.

Question: I've completed my map and finally found my Statue Room (yeah, I'm a bit behind). The guide in the first post simply says to return to the library, but doesn't say how to go about doing that. Should I use a wrong prophecy and get kicked out, then go back in or what?

I tried my first map door again (I saved all the parchments on my computer) and just got a trap

On the other hand,

They're going to get that new scroll repository finished so that they can use it as a library, and try to figure out how to bring Sakhmet City back.

implies that it does exist, but is unfinished.

Yes, if you've found your statue room, enter a wrong prophecy to get out....you'll have to wait until you can enter again, then go to the library to read your scroll

ARGH!! I didn't notice that! "starting the project," vs. "get...repository finished." Who knows?? Maybe it's both....maybe they've begun it, but we cant enter it yet until its finished, even if we do find it.

Does it matter if you said something simular to what I just said? I don't understand the point of your response to me - could you please re-interate? ._.

How about "Word Pyramid". Anyone explore that?

On the main neopets page it says...

"Word Pyramid
If you like puzzles and the Lost Desert, we have just the game for you! Can you use your wits to crack the code? "

Crack the code? Is that game really about code cracking? Or were they referring to something else?

I just played and found the word "scrolls"... nothing

I was supporting your "more waiting" thought.

Edit: And I believe the word you were looking for is "reiterate"

Just looked in the source for the past 3 LCs (all the desert ones, this week's included) and I got nothing.

Ive been playing Word pyramids since it came out. Now..you got me thinking, it's a pyramid as mentioned in LC... it's new... hmm.. i dont think it's in the game itself or trying to spell a certain word...

Rain_rTw · **Posted:** Wed Sep 21, 2005 1:21 am

However this LC

Quote:

Shortly after the Scroll Repository pyramid was completed (see the previous Lenny Conundrum), a huge sandstorm swept through the Lost Desert, partially burying the pyramid. In fact, exactly 58% of the surface area of the freshly-painted pyramid was obscured by sand.

Implys that the scroll repository has been completed but it partially obscured by a sandstorm.

What the FT says doesn't contradict this at all. Saying, "she doesn't know when it will be finished" just tells us that she only evesdropped on half the conversation. The LC clue about being partially buried in a sandstorm tells us that it is in the LD somewhere.
So, now we need to find a partially buried pyramid in the LD, but how?
There is also the TP clue and how it refers to NOT visiting the TP, perhaps Huberts? He is known for knowing odd things?

Well I think we need to start messing around with URLs now. Start tacking on things like &scrollrepository or &library to various URLs. I really hate the idea of this, but it might be the next step...
Of coure, waiting could be also...

I was agreeing w/ your "more waiting" thought.

Ohhh, okay, I had to make sure before I got upsett about it ^^" Kinda seemed to me like you were mad at me for repeating you or something ._. (See guys, this is why you clarify before taking anything to heart XD)
