Altador Plot #62 (READ the FAQ!)

[acerimusdux]

Interesting graph, professorelite.

Here's my interepretaion of the underlying economics:

1 - Someone is hoarding eo and main codestones, inflating the price.
2 - Most astute neopians are aware that there will be no war, and expect those prices to fall again. Therefore, some have cut back on training to avoid overpaying.
3 - Because you don't know what codestone you will need, this causes a drop in demand for all codestones, not just the inflated ones.
4 - The lower demand causes prices to fall generally.

Of course it's possible that they're just releasing more of some than others, or that the training school is asking more of some than others. But I doubt these things have changed. Therefore, I expect that the gap between the various stones will narrow again in the near future.

As for the plot projection, I suspect that there will not be such increasing delays. I'd bet the next step is out earlier than the projection, probably by June 5.

Personally, I'm glad that the hunter hasn't come out. I spent the last week in Russia, and though I wouldn't have traded it for anything, I wasn't very happy with the timeing.
Now, however, I'm anxious for the next clue. I think it has something to do with the fact that the archives are pretty much endless and that you can get an abyss.

When did they say that? All I remember them saying is that it'll be done before the end of June so that the new plot, err, "major event". Wait, oh yeah they did say last friday that they "hoped" to have it done by this week, but they didn't say they would. Knowing them its still all up in the air as to when it'll happen.

From the news May 27-28

Okay, we're just kidding about the whole Altador-plot-being-over thing. The 12th is coming. We were delayed a bit, unfortunately, but we hope to have it released by next week!

Ha! I asked about the Altador Cup, but no one answered me at all. Well, it's out day after tomorrow.

Check the news for June 1st... it's out already.

[professorelite]

Hmm... perhaps the step to the hunter will be in it? This would allow the next Neopian event to happen without needing to end the Altador plot early...

PS: Too tired to respond about my codestone chart right now.

[Gondra]

Reckon the Altador Cup is related to the plot? it could be unrelated.. maybe its a big finale event for altador for celebrating the END of the plot.. maybe the plot is to be finished in the enxt day or two... i doubt it but hey just throwing ideas around

Blah. I just hate soccer thanks Neo for making me have to remember about the world cup when I'm online too.

That isn't soccer. The pads and ball are from Jai Alai. The nets look more like they are from lacrosse.
