Lost Desert Plot Discussion #115 (Summary in First Post)

[IanB]

heh. after getting the third crystal,
... what if we have to now un-ignore the ones that came out the same in the first and second sequence, and now replace those with white scrolls like some people have been dying to do?
wouldn't that be...... fun?

*twitch*

>_> If they do that I will so stop playing this plot there is a fine line neo is drawing with all the repository searching and after the 24 scrolls of the second crystal they are about to cross it. >_> I hate running from the basement mini-model room allllll the way back to the 5th floor just to have to go to the entrance to get the scroll names I need then traverse the entire repositry finding them >_> Especially on dial-up....it's a very very tedious thing

I take it you don't have a printer to print the 3 catalogues then? If you don't then you can open 3 new browser windows and use each to open a different catalogue and just keep them open.

Waitaminute...the second crystal, which looks identical to the third, can be made to disappear. You put it in your safe deposit box, or something. I remember this from an earlier post. So if you make the second crystal disappear, the next time there's light in your miniature Sakhmet room, clicking the top of the minaret should place crystals 1 & 3 there together, giving a new sequence which can be treated in the same way as the second sequence of lights.

Try it, somebody with the third crystal! It took me so long to get the lights the first time, I'm behind. Just started trying to get the third crystal, and once I do, I promised my housemate she can use my computer so she can get her first crystal.

Hey guys! It looks like a lot of people are confirming that three primary colors for the blank spots does indeed give you a location for a white scroll.

The tricky part is getting the correct combination of RBY even though there are only four symbols now.

[endeavourl]

I wandered over to the Neoboards just to see what's up there (and maybe for a laugh or two). Someone's claiming to have received the fourth crystal by reading their blank spots. They read the three primary colors for the symbol and say they got a scroll's location where they read a white one.

I know the Neoboards can get crazy sometimes but maybe this is worth trying. Kinda makes sense and at least it's fewer scrolls.

EDIT: typo

This sounds like a viable idea. I shall try right after I get my light in 2 hours

I just got my first white scroll location by going in reverse order on the catalogs, i.e. going from right to left by colors, if that makes sense.

People are saying that on the second crystal the racks got repainted and there are now different scrolls listed. if that is true then I still have to traverse back down to the 1st level to get my scroll names if they have changed.....I actually have lists of my scrolls BEFORE the repaint....it's just all that bloody clicking and searching after i get the names of the scrolls I need that I hate. It takes too long

[WyldOne]

I got my third crystal and my lights just came on, and I'm getting the same colors as my 2nd crystal. What is this about reading the blank spots?


Also I think I found a scroll with my face on it in the "The Annals of Insanity"

[mercurius]

yay. . .second attempt to get the stupid light and I got it. I think I figured out how to get it. You have to press refresh at exactly h:59:59. I'm probably behind but do you need to read the scrolls before you can start getting your 3rd crystal?

someone has this on thier pets page http://petpages.neopets.com/~Hymerkins

I just got my first white scroll location by going in reverse order on the catalogs, i.e. going from right to left by colors, if that makes sense.

Just out of curiosity, what was the order of your first catalog set?

EDIT: Actually I meant to ask what order you have now in addition to your first one.

[Higure]

Hello, I haven't been caught up lately...

I just got my first crystal and I have entered the room with the model of Sakhmet. When I place the crystal into the notch, there are no "lights." Do I have to keep refreshing until it works?

(my old lights)

I am so confused

[anjuna]

Yah ahem no Blue Ra in my Anubis Toxicology Reports (big room too, geez). If this is a glitch, dirtside, it is pretty unfair that it wasn't fixed before the end of the workday, all I have to say. I checked and double-checked and triple-checked. Going to quadruple-check my everything now, but something is not right here.

[Alex]

Wow, we're getting close to solving it :3

I'm 1/4 of the way through the scrolls for my 2nd crystal. I know where my Jelly trap is.. I'm hoping to finish in just under 3 hours for my next light.
