It took me a good while (4 hours maybe) to make my map, and the file is huge, but is makes navigating the temple soooo much easier- it was worth it. I just started exploring doors, screenshotting everything and connecting what leads where. I'd upload my map but it is huge. It is similar to jas's though, only i have picture notes about my doors I need off to the side for easy reference.

I would somewhat agree... The trend of the clues seems to be easy enough... However, we don't know for sure what the next turn of the puzzle will be. That's where it gets hard again.

After sleeping last night ... I went to Neopets and figured out the clues on my own ... before catching up with the thread. You don't *have* to read this thread ... if you want the challenge of figuring it out on your own.
I have really enjoyed the "work together" attitude we've had here ... and I really hope it continues.

...don't look at it?
Sorry, don't mean to be rude about it, but I find it useful. Of course, I'll try to figure it out for myself, but that's not necessarily going to happen. It's good to know that I'll be able to get through this even if I can't figure everything out for myself.

I think that's kind of a silly thing to ask, everyone is working together to find out what to do. PLus since everyone's tomb and tablet's are different ,coming here and reading what to do won't necessarily help them if they don't map or do work on their own.
EDIT: yeah what XenaAndGabrielle and kirichan said

I used photoshop just because i am firmiliar with it and so it was easiest for me that way. Really, i could have drawn it or something if needed, it just would have taken a bit longer.

Or you could just do what I'm going to do--I'm avoiding reading anything from about now until i get my fishing piece and can work on figuring out the next clue myself. Did it with the last one too, but as i'd already fished, i didn't know i was right until i checked here *shrug*

Its not at all silly to ask. Once youve mapped the temple, finding that stuff is easy. Its figguring out the FTers hint that is challanging. And if this is indeed all of the puzzle plot, then the people who solve it should be those that figgured it out, not those that checked on some internet help sight. Treat it like you would treat the Lenny C, feel free to offer hints and spectulate, but dont give away the asnwer.

well, filesize really isn't an issue for me, I'm just trying to find a way to work with it easily despite it's size.

You used the hints for the first four, right? You found those useful. Well, some others will find these useful, maybe if they come in late like you did, maybe if they can't get them on their own. There's no shame in asking for help.

I did mine on graph paper. Hand-mapping. Took a while, but the file size is awesome.

Asking for help is onething. Asking for the answer is totally differnt. Now if this winds up being jsut a small part of a much bigger plot than i'll see nothign wrong with it. But for now, Id preffer if people didnt post the answers.

I must agree with the other person who said then don't read the help thats given here, I still say that coming here doesn't give you the answer, it gives you a push in the right direction. I like that everyone is working together to solve clues. It makes it more fun i think.
