See, I don't think we're 'clearing' them at all. I think there are just so many of them, that when you click on any given blurry spot, sometimes it just happens to change back as you're doing it.

I haven't successfully cleared one on purpose yet, but I see them switching back and forth as I wander by all the time.

That's true, I'm completely with you on the things changing back after a certain time, but I just tried it again and it worked again, that's at least the third time in a row, so I can't imagine I'm THAT lucky... This time it was only the fifth spot I tried though, but I think that's got something to do with what someone else said before: maybe the spots have a certain minimum time to stay blurry, like for example: a spot stays blurry for 2 minutes, becomes clearable then for five minutes and then goes back to solid by itself if no one has cleared it yet... Just a thought though, but it sounds plausible to me...

Wow this was weird.
Usually when I step on a spot it just says that it's been stolen, bla bla bla

Well I was waiting for a table spot to open up on the first floor (which is probably the most frustrating thing because everyone steals them before you can).. so I decided to try and just sit on it and keep clicking hoping that the stolen thing wouldn't show up. I did, clicked twice and bam, I got to lay my table down.

That's sheer luck for you! 0:)

I've got to come and go often on the site because of such futile prequisite such as sleeping, eating and taking some time with my daughter. However I seem to notice that the percentage of furniture that isn't stolen is greater than what it used to be.

Anybody else noticed that?

Well I just came back from work and started moving pieces, 2 yet..

To me, this furniture moving will take all the week end and the "thieves" are just another way to make it last longer..

so you think it get "faster"? I say its because more and more people are joining.. The more people, the more thieves!

I started moving furniture last night ... and I do think the repository is *slowly* filling up. There are definitely more pieces still sitting around as I wander up to find the ID each time.

People complained last time there weren't enough blocks to keep us busy for days when we were clearing the repository. There is definitely enough furniture moving to last us for a weekend, I think.

There are maps in the first post that answer this question, as well. It doesn't seem like there is more than the 2 places on the 2nd floor.

I've been doing this for so long now that I don't even need my maps anymore. I should have been counting how many pieces of furniture I've placed in the last 6+ hours. I'm surprised my Eyrie hasn't gone on strike yet.

I'm back home from my husbands lovely birthday party and I'm -so- glad that moving furinature hasn't finished yet! (Yes, I'm officially a neoaddict) Hopefully I can get a few more peices in before bed

bah, now im mad! One of the spaces had cleared out, i was refreshing until it got fixed, and as soon as it did someone had already taken it. this might take a while, or maybe i'll just fail on purpose

If you are having trouble with tables, take it back to the Ruki's and exchange it for something else. They allow you to do it...

You do get a slight "time penalty" ... but it really isn't very long. 10 minutes or so.

Yay I found it! I found the Statue.

Now what do I do?

Now you take note that the 'glyph on the "statue" pedestal is tep (the utchat/eye of Horus), and read the corresponding library scroll. See the first post for which library contains that one.

Once you've done that, the response you'll need to give the Repository guards will become one of the options for you. Give the correct response -- again based on the pedestal 'glyph, and again shown in the first post of the thread.
