I'm guessing the scroll is the prize. We're going to find some way to read it which will bring about either a link to a prize or will make our prize of 1 Neopoint and a T-shirt magically appear (much like a goodlie bag)

haha! It's like the Hannah plot re-visited. I still have that stupid icy skeleton...

Well I for one hope the prizes are very good, because you had to be very dedicated to get the plot worked out, at the expence of things 'real worlders' might mistakenly think are more important...like sleep.

I got to see the comic too. Indeed, it really looks as if it was rushed and that there were constraint of time though the graphics are still good.

You wanted a war?
You wanted a twist?

silly PPT theory #513,
Amira despite being happy of avoiding marrying Jazan seeks retribution from the damages created earlier by Jazan and his minions. Jazan refuses to pay a dinar. Enraged, Amira wages war against Jazan, Nabile and their newly appointed chief of guards of the Scarabs Tomos.

Amira is the bad guy now (sort of).
Adversaries in the Battledome are :
Rhino guards
Council Shoyru
General Yurble
and to reflect the ungoing state of war in the world a civilian Kacheek with few points but no offense.

silly PPT Theory #514
with all the names of the scroll sections of which some are strange, an anagram can be formed as to what to say to the statue.

Silly PPT THeory #515
By popular demand and in a graceful move to appease nerve wrecked participants of the LDP, TNT has decided to let Foreman Yurble replace for a while Punching Bag Bob

P.S. Pyramids game isn't working at the moment

So no one thinks the symbol of the rising sun above the door in the caption contest picture might be a clue?

*sings* "The sun'll come out tomorrow" sorry :roflol:

couldn't resist.
Seriously though, it imight be. But how? read a scroll with that symbol or go back to the temple and go through a door? And which color????
I'm thinking like everyone else though. Looks like this is how it's gonna end :cry:

I was hoping for something a little more exciting, like maybe Tomos busting in on the wedding and swinging Tarzan style throught the room and grabbing the princess and swinging out the window only to meet up with the flying scorchio and then the princess showing some power and starting a battle with some of the baddies. Then off to the battledome we'd go and everything would return to normal after the the flying scorchio is beaten and Nabile throws herself in front of Jazan to stop you from defeating him

I'm highly skeptical that this is it. The desert looks much too empty.. and I doubt TNT would let people continue looking for scrolls/crystals if they really wanted to end it.

Besides..I don't think TNT would not have *not* loaded the Sakhmet map.. and saved it for "later". Something seems fishy.. e.e

Upload a semi-completed map and have a new version later? >_>;;

Maybe I finally lost it. :roll:

I stepped away for a bit. Thanks Buttwig for checking your mini city with light. I for one, am seriously running out of ideas. If assuming there were no new hints in the news, seems we MUST be overlooking something. *shakes head*

Also remember the game called Rumble in the Tombs?

Brynne: Ooh, ooh. I must have missed out on this? What part of the plot? What was it like? Sorry to ask such a moot question now, but I am curious. :oops:

Ummmm, I've been outta town for a minute. And I'm trying to keep up based on the guide in the first entry. But that whole thing about what scrolls to read when you first get the light has me confused. Are these scrolls that must be read from the temple, or the repository. And if it is indeed the repository, due to the fact that there are soooo many duplicates in each section, how do we know which ones to read?

Interesting. I played it earlier this morning and it was working fine; but , I can't play it now, either....

Well, the Chef hasn't got a new shipment of treats yet, nor has the Gift Shop. And Nuria doesn't care about Nabile being a princess of Sakhmet, either, or that the wedding of Jazan and Nabile restored Sakhmet to the land of the living. I still think there's something we haven't done yet.

anjuna · **Posted:** Thu Nov 10, 2005 6:34 pm

Is this some major oversight on TNT's part, or does this still not sound right?

The comic says: "And so it came to pass that Nabile, a descendant from the royal line of Sakhmet, married Jazan, Prince of Qasala."

Yet the Fortune Teller still translates our Mysterious Scrolls as: "Jazan must marry a true princess of Qasala to break the curse."

So what is Nabile, really? And if the zombies have disappeared, why are they still in the last comic block with shovels rebuilding the city? (And are they rebuilding just Sakhmet and Qasala or both?) I am confused.

I do think there still might be something else to do, not that I have any ideas, but perhaps we are again waiting on TNT until we can do more?

Even the comic "ending" is not much of an ending, and for some reason I feel really bad for Tomos now. Nabile abandoned her best pal, in a way.

EDIT: The neocam shows a handwritten sign: "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO ME.EPIT" and I know where the long-standing joke comes from (the "all your base are belong to ...") but what do you suppose they are showing this for? Clue, red herring, joke on us?

well, since the caption contest does seem based on the ldp, what about submitting the faerie prophesy or something along those lines?? The more I look at that pic I can't help but think that knockoff30 might be on to something and it might have something to do with the plot??

Well, if Jazan is a prince of Qasala...

...and he has to marry a princess of Qasala....

...then wouldn't that mean he has to marry a cousin?

This whole thing really doesn't make sense.

Plus the ending of the plot was both predictable and extremely stupid.

The neocam is showing an interesting message....
