Altador Plot Split #38

... or are items that actually have to be used as items for this plot IE given to someone, modified, or changed.

It looks likes there's an astrolabe in the observatory, on a stand. Maybe we need ours before we can use that one. Maybe the next clue will involve the astrolabe in the observatory.

I think they're probably items we'll need at the end of the plot. I also think that the last two pages will be an extension of King Altador's story, which will probably be longer than 2.5 pages (counting the full page picture and the obligatory half-page one).

Can someone help me. I can't get the wave constellation because I can't find the link at the docks to get it. I'm using Firefox and have tried clicking and the tabbing just skips from sidebar to "Return to Altador". Does anyone know the problem?

You mean you're at the docks, but you can't click on the wave to get the clue? I think it's one of the closest waves, to the right. I don't have firefox, so can't help you there.

Try clicking inside the image first and then start tabbing through... If that still doesn't work, then just do what cslewislover posted

And if you just can't click a thing, then try visiting the lenny at the archives again, then refresh the page (with the waves) and try again...

i don't think it's a firefox problem specifically...that's what i use and i haven't had a problem. i suggest just using the link mentioned above.

I think that the astrolobe is to find more constellations. My theorey is that the president is going to take away our telescope he gave us so we will have to use the astrolobe instead.

That would be hilarious. :roflol:

Well, either hilarious, or ridiculously, manically difficult...

*crosses fingers for funny* The stars are hard enough for me, thanks!

The only thing I find odd about using the astrolobe later is that the telescope was virtual (Yes, everything in Neopets is pixels) while the badge and astrolobe are items. Given that there were items you held on to in the LDP, why was the telescope not an item? Better yet, something else we had to fix. It would even make sense in the plot because the president would not have wanted us to actually be able to do something with the telescope.

Not true. The president wasn't jealous until we started having such great success at finding constallations. If he had found as many or more, he wouldn't care. Heck, he might not even be so sore if he had found even one! But that the club's so far failed, and we've discovered half of the hero's constellations gets his tail in a twist.

I definitely think the badge is a souvenir. It shows we belong in the astronomy club and all that. The astrolabe, I'm not sure. I also place a bet we'll get two more items after constellation 9 and 12. So far, it's been a workable pattern.

Also, I think I've found my Hunter constellation. Initially, I saw just 5 coloured stars too close together to be coincidence, but now I found the necessary sixth. Where should I send this shape for analysis/integration/statistical study?

mabe the badge and the astrobe is used to show how far we got so far and for them to keep record

Naw, if it were that we'd get one after every step. They've definitely got data fields for that. Personally, I think they'll either play a small part at the end, or do nothing whatsoever. Maybe we'll have to battle the Darkest Faerie and the only way to beat her is by using the Astrolabe in battle. By the way, as soon as I heard astrolabe, I thought Simpsons. Remember the episode where he uses his entire Christmas bonus to buy a novelty talking astrolabe? Good times.
