Website · Fri May 19, 2006 5:54 am

Ok ok people.

As much "fun" as Anjuna had trying to figure out her water plant, if you want to personally congratulate her (or anyone else) use the PM system. Don't post it here.

lol well im sorry to say this but congrads and the reason i posted was i looked at the # of pages so soon after my last cheack of the plot and i thought there was an update so that would explain why you need to celabrate in pm's so yah my compleate nonsense can be deleated by a mod or left here for others to read but i also have one question how on earth are we susposed to find anything in the archives (i think thats how you spell it) its just an even biger maze than the ldp and i hope tnt doesnt se this and decide to make it biger that it already is

have fun all byes

I think they just have the archives open for now so when they do release what evers in it it won't just have a silly reason to be open like him forgetting... or the conundrum lenny

Well in case it is variable, the Mods might want to post that. It is always up to them anyway. But I distinctly remember (trust me I was not hallucinating after the extreme moment of Bliss after fixing the Plant): that I visited the Archivist and Janitor only, then my constellation submission was denied. I then visited the Farmer, refreshed my Telescope and it was already Submitted, I could do nothing. So ironically the user could go on, obviously, but could possibly be mighty confused if they went through all I went through (surely there are people still catching up, even one of my friends is one of them, regardless if he finishes in time as he is on dial-up and this, sorry to say, not a very "slow computer" friendly plot (or site)) and then tried to Submit only to be denied. In fact I recall a few posts like that, I am not sure if that was the exact case or not. Anyway it is a minor thing, relatively, so far as we assume I was one of the last "serious plotters" left (on high speed internet) to complete this. Hang on to your seats though, we are not sure how much more of this "mini" plot there is, what with the Amulet and Archives. Heh. *Flashbacks to Scroll Repository*

So you got it at last, congrats

(sorry mods...)
This plot leads me to lenghty rambles... it's incredible that what made me return to play neopets is a stupid piece of plot.

Anyway, everyone seems to have gone blindly trough this part of the plot. I really can't wait to read the official solution... if there's even one.
How long will it take for TNT to release the Hunter? They should have given us a long break after this constellation, not after the 10th one, so people could think about the water plant at lenght. Unless they're planning to release the Hunter in June.
Random musings: the lever is on while up, the wheel is on while in a + position. The winning combinations seem to have more switches on than off.
Mad wizard. Who do you think is the mad wizard who designed the plant? I have a feeling that it could be important, but can't remember any neopian wizards.

Congrats, Anjuna.

I can't wait to see how it's all gonna work out in the end, when it's over. I've been lurking here on PPT since thread 8, and joined at thread 57. Silly me.

Giving the difficulty factor of this last one and seeing how many players is struggling with it still... prolly 2 weeks.. 'sigh'

On another note - is that King Altador in the Caption Contest? It looks like him, and there are lots of the suns scattered around Altador on the floor.

Yeah that's him with the owner of the food shop.

I am going to commit a crime.

It involved a sledgehammer and a vaelous thingy and an interesting casserole I plan to make.

Does anyone have any tips? I have done it over and over again for ten minutes with no mistakes and NO LUCK.

Keep trying and if that fails, I have a great recipe for Vaeolus. (too many vowels in that...I can't spell it!)

*grins at anjuna*

My advice is to check on the Valeous every 15 seconds or so. Keep your eye on the clock, and remember that after one minute if the image hasn't changed, that you need to do it again.

Also, I noticed that everyone's final state for the plant involves two filled vats and one troft being filled while the rest are empty. I don't know if that helps the puzzle-solvers, but it's a definite link, and more than anyone seems to have at the moment.

There's an alternate method that doesn't take 10 minutes. I don't remember exactly how it works, I read about it after I'd done it the long way. It has to do with the text position and manually changing your address, but exactly how you change it I'm not sure. Sorry for being so non-specific, but maybe someone else has more details?

You mean the cheat link... you click a link and automatcally win. It's probably written down in some guide since I know a couple of people who used it successfully. Though, if you want to use it, it's considered cheating...
