Lost Desert Plot Discussion #64 (Summary in First Post)

[TDG]

Ok, I'll tell you it has something to do with blindness. The rest is up to apranum to choose whether to post or not.

Besides, it'll be out soon enough anyway

No one commented on this last thread:

Does anyone else feel that this teaser from the front page may be a clue?

"Word Pyramid
If you like puzzles and the Lost
Desert, we have just the game for
you! Can you use your wits to
crack the code?"

Not really, since I'm sure they would have had that tagline regardless of whether the plot was taking place or not.

[Historyteller]

It's the "crack the code" part that makes me twitch ...

There are no codes in the game that I'm aware of.

[Da Duchess]

Ug. I'm hittin the sack. Maybe i'll wake up in time to catch a part of the plot. Thank God for no classes tom. WOOT WOOT!!

[jetsam_andrea]

there is no editing done to this picture, other then combining the 2 spots to one frame.

Maybe they have been trying to get us to play Word Pyramid all this while.

A new challenger has stepped up for this week's Better Than You contest. Can you beat the Yurble Foreman at Word Pyramid?

Except it hasnt started yet...the challenger is still for warf rescue.

Having played word pyramid, has anyone ever been able to totally clear all the letters? Maybe that will be how the next clue is unlocked?

[arogance1]

I don't think you can clear all the letters since when you clear some, more replace them

[jetsam_andrea]

it could be that its a clue, maybe we should go back over his wording , probably about the pyramid, and see if theres any leads there.

[endeavourl]

Yes, but if you clear fast enough, the letters go down. Ive gotten to a point where I only had around 12 letters left.

Looks like this might be another possible clue from the Lenny Conundrum:

While sitting around waiting for interior decorators to finish up in the scroll repository, a bunch of bored and mischievous workers decided that they'd build a catapult. When they finally finished, it was able to shoot a projectile straight up into the air. So. in a move which they later regretted, they decided to launch one of the pyramid blocks, which had a density of 2400 kilograms per cubic meter.

When the block crashed back into the catapult, smashing it to pieces, it was determined to have a velocity of 20 meters per second. Assuming that gravity in Neopia is exactly 9.90 meters per second squared, the block hit the catapult at the same elevation as it was launched from the catapult, and there was, miraculously, no air resistance acting on the block, how high, in centimeters, did the block fly above the catapult? Please round to the nearest centimeter and please, do not try this at home.


I'm an art person who hasn't dabbled in physics equations since High School (back in the stone age). I'm not about to solve this one (I might hurt my brain). Is this another clue?

[Jordegern]

Can anyone remember, if there was a pattern to the traps (ie. all the yellow doors had water traps etc.) ?

[scribe_05]

I think they are all just random, cause when i was searching for the room with my statue i entered all blue doors and got random traps from them.......

[hiddenneggs]

I suspect the Conundrum is like the other recent ones -- related to the plot, but not giving necessary clues.
