=====PLOT ASSISTANCE=====
Step One - Maintenance Tunnels (30th Jan)

The plot begins! You can find the Maintenance Tunnels here which if you go to and click on the left hand tunnel, you get directed to this Game in which you must orientate the bubble/arrow things to get Gorix through the maze.

Using the arrows, you have to change the direction he will go when he reaches particular turns, and then press go. While Gorix is walking you cannot change anything. Conveniently, the direction of a particular arrow will change going clockwise each time Gorix walks across it.

Solutions

Blatantly stolen from Siouxper's post here and re-formatted by the lovely Alex.
(Note - these are not the only solutions, there are many combinations that will finish the level)

MAZE 1
Arrow points DOWN

MAZE 2
The four arrows in a straight line, point (left to right), LEFT, UP, DOWN, RIGHT.
The remaining arrow points RIGHT.

MAZE 3
Arrow by itself on the left points LEFT
Top arrows point (left to right) RIGHT, DOWN
Arrow by itself on the bottom points DOWN

MAZE 4
Arrows along the top point (left to right) UP, RIGHT, RIGHT
Two arrows in the middle row point LEFT, RIGHT
Leftmost arrow in the bottom row points UP (other two can be ignored)

MAZE 5
Top arrows point DOWN, LEFT, DOWN, LEFT
Bottom arrows point DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN
*Note, for this one, let the robots close the doors themselves - you don't have to do anything except wait.

Once you have completed the mazes, you’re done for now.

Chapter two of the comics has revealed a serous case of mistaken identity! Why are bloomaroos always helping out Sloth? Where is sloth? Has the Cybunny Scout just left the station? Will we know exactly what happens because of the neopets TCG? I don't know, but discuss it here!

Reason: I added dates for when stuff was released, so we can be like lookies comics come out every 2 days! that means there should be one RIGHT NOW! and the lark. :) Love, your freindly neighbourhood zorgainian

In case anyone runs into the same problem, when I had finished the mazes, the next screen had a start and stop button on it but nothing happened. I had to refresh the page to get the To Be Continued page.

How do you get there anyway? There's no link that leads there in the space station, and i haven't found any in the plot also

[Daze]

Yay!! All completed.

I tried to post, but much quicker fingers found the solutions first.

The blue door is below the Virtual pets station, not actually on it.

You mean apart from the big door at the bottom of the Space Station Index page?

Be nice.

Seriously though, how fast was this part of the plot released? Its amazing! I hope they keep this rate up though.

[Alex]

Says the stealer
Though I agree, my formatting was luverly.

I like the pace. I may not like said pace in a couple of days - I'll be internet-less until at least Monday after this Friday morning, and knowing my uni it'll probably be closer to Wednesday before my net works. (Although, they've got O Week at the moment, so hopefully enough first years complain.)

[Lee]

I is done!

*limps in circles*

OMG the last one takes ages! Ridiculous! I'm going to go make breakfast, everyone be good.

Whoooops *hides somewhere dark in shame for NOT seeing a door THAT big*


On 2nd thought *goes hunting for his glasses*

Don't worry. I used the link Siouxper posted cause I couldn't find the door!

[tippey]

Just picked up a Kacheek Transmogrification Potion to go with my Kacheek Life Potion, ready for War, but also hoping for some really good puzzles. Dr. Sloth will be history!!!

[Alex]

Don't worry - you do enough plots, you start looking for the 'typical' (but sort of hidden) places for links.

Be thankful the past few haven't been as complicated as NPV2's solution. That was intense.

[Trilian8]

Don't feel bad. I didn't see the door either. I had to scroll down to see it.
