Lost Desert Plot Disc #99 (Summary in First Post)

[Elric]

No, it makes sense that it's the colours of the scrolls to read. I've noticed in the 3 instances I've had so far that the symbol/colour in an area is one of a kind while the others tend to repeat.

Oh, and if I don't make any sense, it's because I'm exhausted, it's 2:24 AM, and I have to work in 6 hours. Wee. Stupid sidebar...

[Cranberry]

Heh, TNT better give out the Halloween sidebar like last year, because that's the only thing (aside from finally seeing the light) that's going to stop me from going completely crazy tonight. I don't want to have to sit here checking for the light every hour! My dog is whining and I want to take him for his walk.

[Elric]

I think we need to do something to figure out the colors of the other 4 spots. That could easily come in a later part of the plot.

What about white? That wouldn't make a colour through a prism because white and black don't show up...

Just take a lot of Mountain Dew. That stuff wires you enough for staying up and finding lights. Either that or see a lot of freaky lights and pass out in a daze.

I agree about the sidebar, Cran - it's the only reason I haven't given up on this until tomorrow.

Out of curiosity, those who still haven't "seen the light", which browser are you using? and are you refreshing? or exiting and re-entering?

White is absence of color, so I suppose that would be blank...

The card catalog only has 3 colors in it. So I really think the other 3 spots should be red/yellow/blue ... we just need to find another way to figure them out.

Has anyone completed reading all their scrolls according to the tablet?

I read all scrolls according to my tablet (with color from wall): Nothing.
I read all scrolls according to the wall (with color from wall): Nothing.
I read all scrolls in the card catalog: Nothing

Hey all im back from my hw looks like we're still throwing theories around. Xenaandgabrielle i think that the colors are not the scroll color that we have to read from...they wouldnt just limit the scroll colors to 3. I liked someone else's idea about layering the light (eg blue+red = purple), but I think that we need more clues to figure out the exact color and shape of our scroll to read. However, I think that the tablet and the colors from the wall match to tell you which order of rooms in the repository to go to. We just need to figure out another part of this puzzle, or TNT needs to release the clue.

The card catalog *is* correct, though. There is a scroll of the given color and symbol at the given location, as listed in the card catalog.

I think we need to do something to figure out the colors of the other 4 spots. That could easily come in a later part of the plot.

Or its just me trying to justify that nothing happens when you read the write scroll in a vain attempt make myself feel better at all that work... ^_^

No, but when dealing with pigments, combining all the primary colors makes black, but in LIGHT, combining the primary colors makes white.

My idea was that you would combine more than one set of spectrums. Yours and someone elses. Or yours and a variation on your crystal or a second spectrum thrown by the crystal.

It would be helpful if we could get some kind of confirmation that the spectrums are unique to every person, or if they repeat in any way, based on your fareie statue symbol or crystal colors.

but arent the primary colors for light red, green, and blue?

Or you could have a CKMY color coding...
but thats making things way too complicated.

[Elric]

Wow, I am way too tired to think about the workings of prisms. Bad TNT for making my head hurt!

I think there's a huge possibility of nothing being activated until EVERYONE gets a chance to see the light.

I've been using IE (must re-install Firefox sometime soon) and I've been doing both refreshing and re-entering.

I know it is brainstorming ... but I still protest.

If we have to combine pigments or light (or whatever) ... and we end up with other color scrolls other than red/yellow/blue ... we don't have the "card catalog" that can tell us where to go.

It seems that not only the "color/symbol" of the scroll is important ... but which section of the repository it is in.

If we have to deal with combinations ... then we need a new card catalog to tell us where the others ones are.

Good point.

I've been using Firefox, and also refreshing and re-entering.

Not if TNT is evil enough to make us find those white scrolls on our own.
