anjuna thanks for the summary

ill add my stats

crystal 1 yellow red blue
cat 1 yellow blue red
cat 2 red yellow blue

spectrum 1 BxYRYYBRYxRRBBxx
spectum 2 BxGROGGRGxRPGPxx

complememtary BxRRRBYRBxRBYRxx

maybe someone can spot a pattern among the spectrums or something?

im guess ing we have two more crystals to find since the safety deposite box has 4 useless crystal items when you search. possibly therefore also two more cat colour combos too

i so wish someone would pop up and give us a hint.

anway i keep makign stupid mistakes so im gonna take a break and have a nap.im not managing to think right at all atm = im being pretty useless. ill be back later tonite ir tomorrow (uk time).

Okay I have to go to work, but while sleeping I thought of something dealing with the plot. HA! I'm not obsessed with neopets I swear.

Anyway has anyone tried this?

Do the subtraction. Now the white scrolls....who is to say that that isn't more, clear? I mean the original scroll color would be white, so perhaps someone could try white where their dupes lie.

So for instance mine is
BYYBXYBRRRXYRXBX
PGYPXGBOPOXYRXPX

So I would try:

RBWRXBWYBYXWWXRX

With the 4 whites added. Cause I know all the RBand Y scrolls are there.
Maybe someone with a small room over a White spot could go see if that scroll is there.

Cheers, as I work for 8 hours may you find the answer!

Did anyone who got that Anubis message after their second crystal re-read the original set of scrolls just before reading the new one...read the original 12, then read the additional 8 for a total of 20 in a row?

I'm thinking that there might be something we need to do to "reset" the start of reading the scrolls that come from the 2nd crystal.

O_o did anybody see my post? XD;; I almost missed my own post because I went right over to page 7 while my post was left behind at the end of page 6. ^^;

Anyway, here's my post. ;D I'm sorry for repeating.

I've got the sharp eye problem. I can't get it. My first room is Sakhmetian Archives, Rm. 114 (blue bird). I went in there and read a blue bird scroll. And so on, until I reach the red. Artisan Licensing Records, Other. Red Set (roman two-ish symbol) x2. So I read the same scroll twice.

Is that wrong? O_o didn't work for me...

btw. For the Useless Crystal, first version. The order of the colors go from left to right, right? ^^;

Yes, if you have duplicates you click them twice in a row. Not sure why it's not working for you, however.

First double check that you have the correct colors for each of the symbols on your tablet. Don't forget to skip a symbol for every blank spot in your light display.

Next make sure that you are reading the scrolls in order. The order of the colors comes from the three color dots on top of your crystal. Then you read the scrolls for each color in the order in which the symbols appear on the card catalog for that color, not the order they appear on the tablet.

Oh. Blank spot in light display. Hmmmmm.

Thank you very much! ^^;

THE GRUNDO LEADER STOLE MY CRYSTAL! Does anyone know what I'm supposed to do? :cry:

Faerie_kitten74 · **Posted:** Fri Nov 04, 2005 2:37 pm

Has anyone tried the subtracting theory and added white to the spaces? So instead of skipping a symbol, it would be white instead? And maybe we would not use the four colors that were repeated.

Example, my set would be
1st crystal
brxxbryrxbryxyby
2nd crystal
bpxxgpopxgrgxygy

differance
bbwwybrbwyrbwyyy (keeping all the colors)
or
xbwwybrbwyxbwxyx (not using the 4 repeated colors)

I know using white in place of the repeated colors was suggested and tried. But I don't remember seeing this, so thought I'd ask. If no ones tried then I'll give it a try.

If it's your 1st one just go back to the chef.
If it's your 2nd you still need to go to the chef and get your 1st one, then you need to fall through a spike trap again.

If it's your first crystal, just go back to the chef / foreman for a replacement. If it's your second, you may have to go back to the spike trap after the chef / foreman.

I tried it using white for the repeated colors thinking that they stayed the same because the second crystal had white in those spaces. The only problem I see with doing it your way is, if the blank spaces on the second crystal are white, wouldn't they have also been white on the first crystal?

second crystal URL is http://images.neopets.com/items/useless_crystal_tri.gif

third is http://images.neopets.com/items/useless ... l_same.gif

anyone know what the first was? Is there some clue in this?

I'm thinking the same thing, but I can't seem to think of anything else at the moment. And the first one seemed to focus on just the primary colors, where the second one seems to be about the rest of the colors.
