Lost Desert Plot Discussion #104 (Summary in First Post)

[purplecatlover2003]

sorry stampsyne, i keep forgetting its you who has the guide there, it needs to be added as a link in the first post imo

I have been looking around to find figure out what a sharp eye means. Went to the fortune teller, the chef, esophagor, brain tree, toy repair shop, illusen, jhudora, played all the wheels - nothing that i could see related. any other ideas what a "sharp eye" could lead us to?

[stampsyne]

My opinion? I think that 'what has to be done to get the clue' is A LOT and they'll probably be a great big delay until we can use it. The good 'ol "Allow all people to get caught up" thingie.

Good point, there is an fair bit to do compared with previous bits of plot release.

In other words, I'm stumped again.

[arogance1]

I've been trekking from the basement to the 5th floor and back again for almost 2 hours reading my scrolls. I read the last one and BAM, nothing. No message about sharp eye or anything.

Does that mean I need to start again?

Do I need to exit the repository and go back in to reset it?

[ashbashed]

Yes, you have to start over and read all 12 scrolls. Do you think you inadvertently read the wrong one?

EDIT: I dont think you have to leave the respository to restart, at least I havent heard people say they did that.

[arogance1]

I was very careful not to read the wrong ones.
Maybe its because I was already in the repository when this part started

I was already there too. Have you re checked everything to ensure you have the proper 12 scrolls to read?

[arogance1]

yep. I'm gonna exit, and start all over again to make sure i get it right

[Azzie]

Just to make sure i get this right, once you go to the section you need, there should only be one scroll that fits the colour and symbol, in that area..right??

Good Luck...the helpful post with the screenies of each step may assist you also, There are so many steps, one lil mixup can mess the entire process up. Holler if I can help, Ill be around for a bit.

Yes, that is correct!!!

I've been waiting for 2 hours in the chanber with the Sakmet city model, and still there isn't light. Is it random or it depends on the time of the day?

I agree you're probably right. But I'm feeling motivated. For TNT to visit us here at PPT and give us a "heave-ho" push, they are feeling the pressure to move this plot along.

I say we keep chipping away at every "eye" and "sharp" theory we can think of!

[Azzie]

ok, thanks, so i'm on the right track, i've done 3 scrolls and i've briefly checked the area around them and didnt find any duplicate scrolls..that's a good sign..

of course going all the way down to the catacombs twice is no picnic..

Everyones times are different...I happen to be at 8 to 9 am. I just kept going back and checking until I had light

Oh Azzie...I understand. I was so cautious to not mess up because I was so tired of wandering around that darn place,up and down stairs etc. Good Luck to you. Youll be so happy once you finish!!
