There is a problem with this theory the order the constellations will go in has been posted twice in previous splits and the theif was defenitly not next.
I saw that list... but who found it, and where? How do we know it's genuine?

I believe the Thief has 6 stars....

He doesn't in the TCG card, which is what I was looking at.

I think many others already found, according to the Flash code, that ALL constellations will have 6 stars (some connected, some not, I assume) and the THEORIES of the constellation-release-order posted in prior threads are just that. You can assume what you like about the Janitor or Archivist saying this or that.
We won't know for sure until TNT releases the next clue. And don't ask when. We all hope it is tomorrow at news/update time. No one really knows for sure, and if they did then it wouldn't be a nice surprise, would it?

we don't but hey they guessed the farmer right, and the order it went in just seemed like the right order. Also if there was going to be a hint as to the next constellation being the thief coming from the lenny where most people are pulling it from wouldn't it have been better for the one after we found the first to rise because he mentions thieves?

wont work.
if you want to know if your theory is a possible constellation or not, you must look at the diamonds above that constellation's statue. If you can see that patter in there somewhere.... THEN its a possibility.

*shrugs* Just throwing stuff out there.

They'll probably add stars like they did for the dreamer and the farmer(farmer's only got two by the hand on the TCG and dreamer doesn't have the one by her fingers).
Edit//
Actually, you can see that arrangement in the gems. I don't have time to make a pic, but if you look at the very bottom gem, it and the two right above it could be the hilt, and you can also find what could be the blade. I'm not saying that this is definitely what the constellation will be, I'm just saying that it's possible.

The list from previous threads showing the order was gotten by people finding the order of the images inside the programming. I can't be bothered to go back and find the list. I think Dancer was next, but I could be completely mistaken. My question is, why does it matter? With the addition of stellar drift, it makes finding constellations ahead of time just a waste of energy. I say just wander around looking for new clicky places, then we'll know which one is next.

I'm not sure if there's any support of this, but wouldn't it make some kind of sense if Fauna the Gatherer was after the Farmer? Just a thought...

When you look at the altador map, it looks like there are at least four, if not more, tiny little statues of faeries (or maybe some of our twelve). Two are at the top left, another to the left of Exquisite ambrosia, and another below the hall of heroes...[/img]

Am I the only one that's getting a "Forbidden" error when going to the constellation finder? I even tried using a bookmark that used to work, but I get the same error!

Read the last thread. Everyone is experiencing the same problem, and stooder (the person who made the finder) is working on getting it back up and running ASAP.
Mods, to avoid more questions like this one, do you think it would be possible to add a note to the first post saying that the Constellation Finder is currently down? And then remove the note when stooder gets it working again?

I have a feeling that if there was a fight part to this (and yes, I know there's no war, I'm just kinda saying this as something interesting), no doubt it would be the astronomy club president. Have you noticed that ever since you get into the club, with each constellation, he gets more and more annoyed at you? Just think how he would be if we got all 12

I'm curious as well as to what's going to happen with the astronomy club and the president. Although it's not just the president, the whole club has been getting less and less cheery when you find a contellation. I highly doubt they'd kick us out, but the president does suspect us of cheating. Where do you think TNT is going with this? Besides...how could an astronomer "cheat" in finding constellations?

I think we might be kicked out of the Astronomy Club by that point. Probably will need that badge to prove we were a part of the club during the plot (if that badge isn't one of the 'prizes') to get to a step.

There are quite a lot of areas around Altador that could become links - such as the house similar to the Temple on the bottom right-hand side. If it is the Thief next, then I'm guessing that that's where we'd find him - it just looks like a convenient hideout.
But, where would we expect to find the other ones? The Wave would be likely to be hidden in the sea (as the nice nearly-April Fool joke so kindly suggested). Maybe the Gatherer would be hidden somewhere on the farm, a la First to Rise.
