Altador Plot #57 [READ THE FAQS]

[jessica87au]

i've been excel speadsheeting to help me. And I've JUST started it but i've noticed something very interesting already. certain combos reset themselves when you click the levers....

ima gonna try copy pasting what i have so far. if it doesn't work at least i tried!! (# is the + position. excel kept trying to make it an equation...)


1 2 3
x x # x u u n u 1 full
# x # x u u u u 1 full, 2 lever in 3 went down auto
# # # x u u u u 1
x # # x u u u u 1
x x # x u u n u 1, return 2 lever in 3 up, 2 valve turn x auto

when you have the xx combo in first room the 2nd lever in room 3 goes up auto. you cant change it to x+ and have the lever in room 3 stay up.

I have discovered that some valves/levers also toggle other valves/levers when they are flipped. Have fun trying to figure that one out.

Darn mad wizards.

I got mine while trying to flood it. I then started working on my daughter's and tried the same thing. I went to first room opened all, opened all in second room. I made sure at least one lever was down at all times in third room so it wouldn't flood. It took me less than one minute to get her's done. I think I started with all 3 down and lifted the first one and it was the correct combo. So many have posted this is how they got it.

Finally just got mine done. There was no rhyme nor reason to it, I had done this combo before (unless I goofed, but I don't think so). I went and walked my dog after trying for ages, and just as I was getting frustrated again it worked.

It had nothing to do with the tanks being full, or water seeming to flow from trough to trough. Nothing seemed to match up. Maybe it's just a random click that does it *shrug*

This seems to be the case, random clicks or time or something. I am still waiting for mine. I know I have gone over them all several times.

my theory is simply that TNT developed 'the telepathic script' that could sense the moment you were SO frustrated you never wanted to play on neopets again... then and only then were you allowed you to fix the water system.

[polomoche]

It can't be random! That's just too cruel.

Oh boy... I don't think I like the direction this is going in.

I'm getting flashbacks... to that darn TOMB... ... ... :shudders:

I believe their scientologistic cult is capable of this "psi" psyche manipulation. And I am at that point. I am either out of the plot or if I find one iota of strength or will to go back into that Water Plant I should get it.
How many times must some of us click!?

[Valrigard]

I tried at it systematically, doing every single possible combo until I finally got it. I think the combo is different for everyone but IS FIXED, i.e. IT IS NOT RANDOM.

The thing is though, the tomb wasn't random. It was just different for everyone. But I think I would almost prefer random in this case. Because that way you just have to keep trying until it works, and not really have to worry about doing it the right way. Because there is no right way because it is random. Which is niceish.

[weirdguy]

In the tomb, I had documented at least 70 different rooms.

I never got past the second tablet piece.

Gah.

I believe this number will be important WHEN the Hunter clue is released. Any guesses on how I arrived at this wonderfully sadistic number? I will give the first person to guess it right a million NP*.



*Neopoints will not actually be given away, just an expression!!!!!

[Ziggy]

Well, I'm stumped. I've been working on it for ages - systematically, randomly, everything. However, I think I'm going to give it another once-over doing it systematically. However, I'm not 100% sure I've got all the steps right. If anyone has like a checklist of all the different variations, I'd be much obliged if you'd be willing to loan it to me. Just private message me if you can, and thanks in advance!

umm... the multiple square pi of 79 divded by the number of current neopets online players at the same time that the total aisha count was the square root of all piles of sludges currently in SDB times 15 minus adams current neopoints? ... plus 2?
