Lost Desert Plot Discussion #114 (Summary in First Post)

[Cilian]

Wait, the lights are exactly the same o_0

Question: Do you think I could do each pair, write the room down but NOT go there yet. And then once I find all 8 rooms, I visit those in the proper order? sya I have

Orange duck
Purple paw
orange ahnk
green ahnk

as part of my tablet stuff.
I here I have to do,
red duck
yellow duck
orange duck
blue paw
red paw
purple paw
ect...

could I not do
red duck
yellow duck
blue paw
red paw
ect..
and then orange duck, purple paw ect...? Or must it be done in order?

I'd do it all in order. Primary, primary, secondary. Benefit to this part is if you mess up, you only restart from the begining of that particular pair, not the entire thing.

are you reading the exact same scrolls you read last time? This time instead of the second scroll telling you were the 3rd is, you go to where the third was last time and it tells you where to find the 4th? I am so confused lol Wish I had my lights so I could see what you are talking about.

[everconfused]

Take a look at your scroll racks for Crystal #3 - once again, the color order has changed, at least for me. Crystal 2 was BYR, Crystal 3 is RYB - and the card catalogs are changed.

So, does this mean we have to do the same exact thing ... again using the first color and the new card catalogs that we did for the second crystal?

Me? I'm not reading anything yet. I'm trying to figure out my plan of attack. Officially I have no clue what to do after getting the third crystal and lights.

Im about ready to give up on this whole plot, my connection is slow and thus finding all these scrolls is gonna take awhile. Yet it seems we could have one cyrstal for each trap. Can someone talk me out of giving up?

[everconfused]

Sirclucky, how far along are you? I know, I was going to just stop last night I was SO frustrated. And even with a faster connection it is taking a long time to get these scrolls read. Not to mention the weird error messages I kept getting while going through the repository.

My roommates have both wanted me to stop, I'm hogging the computer trying to get this done and over with.

Right now, I have to go. One of my roommates just walked in, her mom died this afternoon. So, good luck to all. I don't know when I'll be back, this is obviously much more important than a plot.

The triple crystal looks pretty darn complete to me. Any thicker and the thing won't fit in the building slot. I honestly think we're near the end and we won't have to work through like 4 more trap types.

Where are the:
Annuals of Insanity & Ruki Population Survey?

Ugh, here I go waiting for my light to come on again so I can see the pattern for my second crystal. Can I expect it to come on at the same time it did before?
This is important as I have no internet connection at home, and spending 8 hours in a cafe waiting for the light is...um...not very economical.

[Casi]

if the lights look exactly the same this time, why do we have to wait til we get our lights? Oh, I get it. The lights give us a new CC?

Yeah, that's pretty much where I stand.

I tried comparing screencaps to see if the new set had lighter shades of the colors (possible indication of white) but found them to be identical so no hint there.

At first glance, nothing obvious stands out to me besides (1) the newest crystal looks to have no colored markings on it and (2) the CCats have been painted once again.

No rest for the weary.

[Casi]

did the second crystal have that white swoosh on it that this one does?

[cyleigh]

Another question:

Once I get to the area that I am supposed to read a scroll from.. how do I know which scroll to read? I guess a red, yellow or blue one (I'm still on the first crystal)?

you read the scroll with the same color and symbol that led you to the location,
