I have offered as much as 1000 NP and as little as 10. I have also just tried refreshing where it says thank you for your donation. I did go back to the fortune teller before I started and refreshed untill she gave me the clue. So what am I doing wrong? I have used all lower case and just capitalized the first letter of each word. Any suggestions? I have put out some seriouse NP on this clue and still nothing.

Once you get to the "Thanks for your donation page", scroll to the bottom... that's where my parchment was.

Am having a proble there too..compounded by the fact that i'm gonna be late for work and mwas hoping to catch up before i left. does the fact that thr well is sleeping have to do with anything ??

I'm not sure, but it took me several tries to actually get the parchment.

Just read the new editorial in the NT and found this:

Could you PLEASE tell Brucy B the war's over? He doesn't quite get it. What a stubborn Bruce. - megaman3125

Hehe, well you can't blame him for trying. Brucey B's war tent and a lot of the other outdated things on the Lost Desert map will either me moved, upgraded or just vanish once the new map goes live. It is tied into the story though so we can't change it just yet.

Obviously at some stage we need to use Brucey B and / or his tent. (Just something to keep in mind.)

Ugg, how could anyone have fun playing Fetch? This is quite possibly the most boring game on the net... at least a top 50.

Hmm... I have an idea. If anyone's willing to waste an hour (I can't 'cause I'm locked out for 12) can you try going to some of the other doors on your parchments? If you have any other 1s, that would be a good choice, or maybe something from your first parchment.

It probably won't do anything, but we should try and see.

I think by that they mean that the whole changing of the map is part of the plot, not Brucy B particularly.

I think that means that the reorganization of Sakhmet is part of the plot, not that Brucy B's war tent is. I might be wrong though.

Edit: Beaten to it, I see.

I don't think the other doors on the parchment are important. The parchments disappear after you find their piece. Unless TNT wants to torture us that badly, ignoring the other doors is safe for now.

Well, I think this is a misinterpretation. What I think Donna meant was that it wouldn't make sense for all of Sekmet to be rearanged and updated yet. I doubt very much that Brucy B's Tent will even be there once this starts rolling. Brucy B was just the example the user brought up and she responded with a broader statement so as not to reveal anything too specific.

EIDT: heh, two other people beat me to it...

interesting

When Donna said "It is tied into the story..." I also think the "It" refers the changing of the map, not Brucey B specifically.

I am thinking about reading another scroll that I haven't read yet, since I've already got 7 down and only 5 to go. With all this waiting it may be possible to read them all and see if that helps at all.

Does anyone have advise about this?
Should I try to get them all, or should I wait?

Has anyone out there read more then me?

I've read 7 for certain and possibly 1 or 2 more (my libraries were messed up). One of those was after I completed the tablet, but not the one on my faerie's statue. IIRC, though, there are people who have read all 12.

My personal suggestion would be to make sure you've read the one on your faerie's statue and completed your tablet, and after that read the others if you have time.

err.. you know how the scrolls(the actual items found in REs) have the description that seemingly hints something.. were the reasons for those ever figured out?

the descriptions... or the scrolls.. .. curious about the descriptions though..

Tue Sep 13, 2005 12:06 am

I'm gonna go read the one one my statue, nothing more I can do tonight anyway...

Edit: read my nuria scroll and my pet understood it so I quess I'm done now for tonight. Starting a new job tomorrow so I'll catch up tomorrow evening.

maybe there will be a new clue as to who can read the tablet at 8:30?

Phew! Come 8 o' clock (my time) I'll be up to date and won't feel like such an outcast :lol:

I honestly think that until the next comic is released anything we do in the temple won't give us the prophecy. As another user said, with each comic came a new part of the mission to get the prophecy and I don't think the last part will be any different.
