Lost Desert Plot Discussion #145 (Plot prizes)

[purplecatlover2003]

furniture and sand moving didnt get points...it says at the bottom of the points breakdown page

[Hangman]

They added the number of points to the userlookup I would have preffered just the trophy...

Is the Foreman Cudgel worth getting? I saw the stats, but question is if its worth wasting the points on it?

I do like the points there, all the other ones have points there, so I thought it looked a bit silly without points

As for the cudgel, it's not really a great weapon, so only buy it when you're not a very advanced battledome fighter. But I wouldn't waste any points on it myself, I think it's better to buy it with neopoints and spend your plot points on something like a book, I think those will be worth more in the long run...

[shapu]

One thing that is a good explanation why (I hope) the plot prizes won't be downgraded:

If you buy a weapon and it's downgraded, then you feel ripped off, but all you lose is neopoints. You can make neopoints back.

If you buy a PLOT weapon and it's downgraded, then you're up the creek. You can't get more plot points anywhere.

I think that TNT understands that (I hope). Costing people plot points would be as unfair as they've ever been.

Hmm, I did everything except the 2 fakes and have 136k. I'm thinking a wedding ring, a book, and a binch of keychains. That sound good?

I also am wondering what the spike pit and scroll rack look in neohomes. If anybody has any in their house, i would like to take a look.

I have a scroll rack in mine here. But would also like to see the spike pit in place, if someone would be kind enough to try it out for us - even if it's just a screenie.

Assuming everybody who completed to plot up till beating Razul got 179,300 points (or there abouts) and those who didn't, or those that jumped in late got 149,300 (or there abouts) - the two figures seem to be about right, excluding speed bonii and whatnot - then...

7000 people beat Razul
About 1/3 (just a guess) jumped in late
So about 4620 people could buy it. But that's a rough estimate, probably anywhere between 4000 and 6000 people can buy it

Actually, the exact figure is 7,181 who got all the way to the end and "weakened" Razul.

I would also like to have a full set of the keyrings, if anyone has extras. I'm still undecided on prizes, but should have a few ahns once I cash in, for swapping.

I'd really like to know the score breakdown. Because I didn't start late, completed all steps save the fake one at the end and I didn't get 179,300 (I got 15,000 less then that). I was also one of the first to get to the end, so I'm mildly confused about that.

*shrugs* I haven't redeemed points yet, I'm still debating, so it's not like it's going to be that big a deal for me. I'm just curious why I scored lower then people who finished waaaaaaaaaay after I did. (Plus I did most of the plot on a Linux machine, that should count for a few extra points, ya? ).

I put a spike trap in my home if people are interested. http://www.neopets.com/neohome.phtml?ty ... ent=cilian

Thank you to everyone here who helped me to complete the plot. I got 179 300 points (only missing the fake two). Interestingly, I had my daughter staying with me at the time and she became interested as I was so preoccupied and she began as well, so she followed my steps, only a little later and got 164 300 points. I feel for dolphinling and the top puzzle solvers. I think you do deserve a special prize, too. I wish there was a way to send you some of my points. Thank you again.

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether or not the sand/block mover "trophies" (as they're called on the player stats page) are likely to appear on our user lookup page in the way that the main trophy has? I can't see the point in showing those two only on that stats page?

I see in the news for 31Jan that "that furniture mover statistics were stolen shortly after they were tabulated" which I take to be TNT speak for someone screwed up. It would happen on one of the stages that I did quite well on!

[Jasujo]

I doubt the sand and block trophies will appear on our lookups. That'd be a lot of trophies for one plot. I think they're more like secondary trophies.

[Chipper]

Are there different keyrings I only have one in my shop prize center.

I can't wait till the new plot what do you think would be a good one for the next one? Im thinking Hounted woods kind of a spooky thought don't ya think

[apranum]

congrats for cranberry for being third place... assuming the information I collected is correct

[Urthdigger]

Yeah, I got 179,300 points as well. I did everything except for the fake ones. I spent most of my points on books for my kacheek, but couldn't afford the annals of insanity. Got the cudgel, and I'm going to get a few other toys since I'm pretty much all out of points.

[Jasujo]

You only have the key ring with your symbol on it in your shop, but there is one for each symbol.

Here are all of the key rings for you lazy folk. I ended up with Tep.
