if you accidentally refreshed on your sharp eye deciphered scroll, therefore reading it agian, do I have to go through all of them again before I can get spiked or am I ok?

If you've got some time to spare before you can get into the temple again or before your light starts shining, I think it's for the best to redo the sequence again, since I've already heard of people who did exactly the same thing and who were not able to get their second crystal before doing their sequence all over again...

awww, ok, will do! thanks!

There is a section of tomb artifacts called coffin details. There are probably five racks or so in there, so you just have to search through those five racks until you find the particular scroll.

if ianb got the next clue message what did he do to get it?
have others gotten it? are we sure they have after 8 scrolls or are they teasing us cause they are all in the chat room and we havent ventured there? yeh i know im being (wats that word?) but im sure i saw a post by one of them in an earlier split saying that they knew what to do but werent going to tell us, or was that related to something else alltogether?

im still trying for the dang spike trap lol getting annoted wiht the kickout time now rofl and i have a migraine so really shouldnt be here at all but i can guarantee as soon as i go bed everything will kick of again lol

Both Ian and Dolphin (confirmed with the new "message") were reading 8 scrolls. Ian didn't even get through all 8, he got the message after his 6th scroll. Dolphin originally went to 8 and has since been able to recreate it by reading just 2 or 3 of his scrolls.

What does it mean?? NOTHING. i've tried their theories, along with many others. I agree with Ian that it probably isn't the clue, just something else.

Ian, what order were you reading the scrolls in.

I saw a note where you said it was crystal order of

R B Y

with overlay of new crystal

O G P

to give you

Y R B

I don't understand the transition to YRB, nor do I understand the overlay since they don't match up in position.

Thanks!!

I'm also trying to find a connection between you and Dolphin... what did you have for dinner last night? I know it might not sound important, but I shall leave no stone, errr I mean scroll, unturned!!

I got OGP from crystal 2. Starting with O and reading one way gives you OPG and the other way gives OGP. Subtracting RBY from OPG gives YRB. YRB also happens to be the left to right sequence of my catalogue racks.
I can also use the sequence PGO with RBY to give BYR this puts the Red Djo eigth in the sequence but still gives the message.

Thanks Ian, I understand YOUR rationale and it makes sense, too bad I can't apply it to my circumstance or I end up with taking a blue from an orange. Oh well. Glad it worked for you

This was mentioned a while back and I was wondering if anyone else noticed the door # for their spike trap. We have 7 types of traps I know of; crusher, gas, jelly, riddle, sand, spikes, and water. In alphabet order spikes is #6. 6 was the door number mentioned in this post.(I would quote but can't find it a second time).

If you do notice your door # for the spike trap please post. It would help all of us who are on our 8th or 9th lock out like me.

Also off subject but have to brag somewhere. I finally got the Lenny Conundrum in the first 250, woohoo!!!.

Devlish, I'm not sure about the number, I seem to recall seeing #5 - but I'm not sure if that was jelly or the spikes (I got a jelly trap before my spikes). It was late, I was tired and frustrated, sorry.

I'm not sure that it did! All I have is a silly half-message and no idea what to do with it! It may not even have a meaning at all

Trying to help someone pretty far behind (finishing mapping his Tomb). Anyone that had a "loop" in their Tomb, was it a problem? Or fixed? He still has the loop and no 3rd Library, but all else seems fine on his map.

Anyone that had a Tomb "Loop" any suggestions would be apprciated. Thanks.

EDIT: It is at his second level, too, just 1 click away from his Entrance. This somehow seems all the much more unfortunate for some reason.

Is there any reason I can't get my lights to come on? Have I done something wrong, or does it just not want to work?

There were two loops in my temple.

The light comes on at the start of a random hour, and is on for an eight-hour period. Just be patient.

it just doesnt want to work. JK

actually i thought the same myself. it actually lights up when the sun is outside of the tomb b4 you enter if that help s any. it helped me immensely that way i didnt sit and keep refreshing thinking something was wrong i just went to see if the sun was out.

everconfused · **Posted:** Thu Nov 03, 2005 10:12 pm

amjuna, a loop? Like if you click on a square you go back to the previous or even further back level of the tomb? I have alot! of those. Tell your friend to keep trying, keep clicking different doorway combinations.

It took me I think a week! to find my third library, I thought for sure it didn't exist in my tomb.

Starry, the lights are random, but allegedly every 8 hours for 1 hour. Like, last night I got my second crystal just before 11 pm (my time) - nothing happened. I was lucky ... I refreshed just after midnight and there was light!

You can kind of tell when it's your time by just looking at the model room. If it looks like it's in "shadows", it's probably not the right time. If it looks almost like it's in daylight, then it probably IS the right time to add the crystal to get your colors.

Now, I read " Kar Sakhmetian Archives, Room 113 " and then come back and read Something from the red directory?

Loops are normal, more people have them, nothing to worry about
