Lost Desert Plot Discussion #21 (split)

I have really bad luck then...lol

Sorry to ask this, but I am confused by previous posts, plus have never played fetch. Do I need to actually find the faerie dust by wandering around and just not make it back to the exit? Do I get into the game and refresh a bunch? Do I need to actually find it at all? Thanks

No, you don't need to find the Faerie Dust at all, just lose the game.

Now I have a question... do I have to click on the glowing symbols in the order they appear on my tablet, or just find all of them?

after you choose a difficulty, you will be asked to find something in the maze (like "the stuff" or some mushrooms or something) refresh until they ask you to find the faerie dust. once you're in the maze, DON'T get the faerie dust and just wander around aimlessly until you die. after you die, it will come up with a screen that tells you that you failed to find the faerie dust. at the botom of that page, should be the parchment.

No, click them in order (if you've got two or more in a row, click two or more times)

Well, I've tried every possible search in the trading post (including on for a username: people , who exists by the way) and nothing came up. Looks like it's back to the waiting game. I'm off to bed.

Bah...I got the tablet translated but I'm STILL stuck finding the statue. Are you guys sure that the colors on the door before entering the temple helps find the statue.
Mine involves the words "river and lightgiver" I'm suppose to find a blue triangle, but I've checked 6 or 8 rooms and nothingr. I'm waiting an hour to unbury my pet from the sand. -.-

I'm always trailing behind in puzzle plots.

Edit: Everyone knows that there is a new chapter out right?

how can you get it translated before the statue? im on my sixth door without finding it and i can't translate my tablet...i turned off my popup blocker and everything! i thought you can't translate before you find the statue...

that cracks me up.

all that, thinking we might get somewhere.



so what's all this about a trading post?

Huh? Well if that's true, i got lucky.

"Now that you've examined the symbols, the meaning of the tablet slowly becomes clear. The translation reads:

The ancient prince will cause the disappearance of the desert capital"

I got the translation, but never found the statue. -.- I only remember 4 of the 12 doors I've been to. GAH! I'm going to be looking for this statue for the next 12 hours, or so.

were you stuck in a room at the time you translated? maybe that has something to do with why i can't. right now im stuck in my sixth door i checked...but i can't translate the tablet...maybe i need to wait an hour for me to be covered again?

I dunno, I find any mapping at all to be a waste of time. I managed to find ALL of my pieces without one and it really didn't take me all that long (probably the longest a door took me to find was 40-50 minutes and on average they took me 10-20 minutes each).

Then again, it could be just me and the way my mind works that I found no trouble. (ie. Everyone's different XD)

But now I've got the translation (and me avie X3) and I'm trying to find my statue - which I never did. >> *pokes B10N1* Poor dear gets the brunt of my explorations.

I just hope I can. Even if I get nothing of it, it's still nice to know - yes?

Honestly though, I think neo is waiting for the next part.. it could very well likely have something to do with the scrolls you read in the library... (you never know)

EDIT: OH! And you do not need to allow popups for it to translate... My popup blocker killed it, but when I went and looked at my tablet it was translated still. Then again, this could just be for my browsers particular popup blocker... (I use Avant Browser which is an 'upgrade' to IE)

hmm im thinking is it to far fetched that the last clue is the trading post and the last capter has them stealing items?
