Lost Desert Plot Discussion #20 (split)

[apranum]

cough chapter 4 cough

nothing much, I think it's rather lame

the desert scarabs return to sakhmet... and of course they do their "daily" life, "haggling" stuff

it seems amira wants to speak to public, and jazan return to sakhmet to do "something"... (so I don't see the point, why he has to go from and return to sakhmet)

the street urchins obviously wanted to rob the rich looking prince for sure this time....

Kinda a kids game, but not really. It's the not really part people forget. Just go take a look at the Neopet version 2 puzzle. You didn't just need to look up a few random clues in the source code, you actually need to understand much more tech savy. Who wants to guess when I gave up?

Well, after seeing Kryse post about her door color, it stopped a trend I had noticed. It seems like a number of people had the same color door as the scroll seal of the symbol above it... But no luck.

Neopets is a game created by college students for college students... but still the demographics show that 50 % of their users are under 18 so I guess it has evolved into more of a kids game.

Earlier I had been searching through every user/pet that had an even remotely plot oriented name, but petpages were down so I couldn't check the most likely place for something to be hidden. But now, I suppose I can go back and check through a few.
I don't think it will lead anywhere though, as none of them seemed very suspicious.

Has anyone tried to read a prophecy to thier Nuria Faerie more than once? I used one set of options I had come up with an hour ago, and then I went back to try and tell her another, and she wasn't in the same door just a trap there now, so now I'm wondering if we only get one chance and I blew mine???

When people report that their faerie door has turned into a trap ... most likely they either:

a) clicked the wrong door accidently.
b) used the back button on accident in the temple.
c) are having cache problems.

Wait an hour and report back ... you should still have the same faerie statue room.

She's still in the same room I last saw her.

Anyone tried reading what the Fortune Teller says in another language?

[stampsyne]

Anybody been checking other door suggestions found on thier parchments?

[Rain_rTw]

Okay, I am about to go burrowing through source code. Can anyone recomend pages to be checked? (links would be helpful)
I'm not exactly sure what things to look up and check in the neopedia, so if anyone has ideas post 'em and I'll check through that page.

If you're going into the Neopedia, most of the Lost Desert people are called senator, adviors or princess.

Advisor Wessle, Lady Osiri, Lost Desert, Nabile, Neopian Protection Zone 6b, Peopatra, Princess Amira, Princess Sankara, Princess Vyssa, Senator Barca, Senator Palpus, Suteks Tomb, The Desert Scarabs.

Here are all the names I found.

For anyone who thinks there's no difference between reading and understanding, I have only one suggestion for you: try reading Shakespeare. You might be able to read the actual words, but have no idea what in the world it's talking about. Oh, and the place isn't called the temple of plot everythingness, so the next part after filling out the tablet might have absolutely *nothing* to do with the temple, then we come back later after finding out the prophecy some other way.

I'm logging off neopets like Scottnak suggests. One of my friends has already lost her account.

Correction. She self froze after encountering a cookie grabber in a shop with uber-cheap items.
