Just wondering, does your King Altador's gems top 5 gems resemble an arc shape?

I was mulling through the TCGs and for the TCG "The Hunter", it shows a constellation of King Altador with a bow



Yeah, I would say they appear to be similar to an arc...

I wouldn't be surprised if the ceiling had something to do with constellations.

EDIT: Upon further inspection of the gems on the ceiling, they all seem to take the shape of their statue, and it's definitely not a coincidence. I am positive that they represent constellations and the astronomy club ties into this somehow.

Some of them do definantly bare great similiarity. I just checked a few of the other cards and compared them. I think you have to rotate the jewls though.

Why, yes - mine does. He's also got a bow in the statue.

Hey... wait a minute.... there's a constellation card for every statue in the circle.

Hence my previous suggestion that the gems represent the constellations and it ties into the Astronomy club. ;-)

In my opinion, this plot just gets cooler and cooler.

Alright, I'm almost done with the ceiling map. Just have to label things and tweak the angles a bit.

Or my suggestion of the same back on page 6. ;)

I played around with the ceiling tiles too, but I think we're done until we can get our hands on a telescope.

An image showing a (badly done) upwards view of the roof...

Probably best to have your own done anyway, just because I did mine with paint and word (I have no real imaging programme on this computer).

I have a similar rendition but I also have them labeled and I used exact degrees to simulate the curvature as close as I could...

Here is my small version (50% actual size): http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/1097/s ... ing3vb.jpg

Here is larger version (100% actual size): http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/8724/l ... ing8ub.jpg

I'll work on refining the image in a bit. Edit: Fixed some overlapping edges.

I'm considering trying to draw the lines on the gems in the way someone would trace out the shape of a constellation. But it may be difficult to make the right connections. Anyone else up to the challenge?

Nice... but in case you hadn't noticed, the lines in the original images don't even line up.

For starters, the angle of each gem-constellation is only 20 degrees. There are 12 of them, so combined they add up to 240 degrees, only 2/3 of a full circle.

Second, the lines don't even intersect the rounded part at a right angle! That makes it impossible for it to be a circle with "spokes" coming out.

Lastly... I'm not sure yet, but I don't even think the rounded part is a circle. I'm checking on that now.

In any case, if something like that were important, they'd have made the geometry correct. Since they didn't, I'm betting it's just for show, and the important part is the gem-stars.


Nabile pwns you...

has anybody else noticed that when you go the hall of heroes, there is a janitor in the back corner (the same orange yurble from the last plot)..... and he is guarding a button that does nothing. you press it... it does nothing. and then the yurble yells at you because he allready told you that it didnt do anything.... :/

hehe, i hope this is news to you guys.... im not going to read all 10 pages just to find out :D

Actually, the angles go in 25 degree increments for the two statues in between the 0 and 90 degree, etc., positions.

Also, it's not a perfect rendition, but I do believe it goes in the shape of a circle because that is how the statues are positioned.

"In case you hadn't noticed," ... well, I'm not blind or stupid. Ignore the lines of the paneling. Like I said, it is not a perfect rendition and it's a bit difficult to know the exact dimensions of the ceiling. I was already working on a very large canvas of 1500 x 1500 pixels and was scared to increase more for the sake of loading time.

And the gem-stars are the important part, but it's always a good idea to get the perspective as if you were in the room and looking up yourself. Anyone can look at each 300 x 300 pixel image of each ceiling tile piece-by-piece if they want, but I took an extra ten minutes to construct a rough image of how it would appear altogether. I like to see the big picture, personally, as opposed to tiny bits and pieces.

We've got that. I recommend you read all ten pages to get caught up on the plot so far :)

So have we decided that everyones constalations are the same?
And I'm going to suggest we get a mod come in and split this, since it seems to be the next plot, and we are on page 11. Maybe... :) Some one on high speed internet could post a summary maybe?
