So I did a little grave digging... and then gave up, I'd rather earn some NP than wait for three other players to do something. Why did TNT have to make it a group effort thing?

Anyway, I now have a Sludgy, Ghost Marshmallows and a Fetch! (*shakes fist*) Stamp in my inventory. Is all that from the grave diggings?

i'm having the same problem. i just sit a refresh the same grave, and someone still gets there before i do!


Are you refreshing by clicking the "Wait" button? I don't think normal refreshing works to get the bone.

Those are the most usual prizes, but you can get rare spooky food, halloween plushies and even a halloween paint brush(if you are very very lucky)!

I got a Slorg :D plus several cheap items. Now I'm waiting for Sophie to tell me I can make some potion. I'm reasoning that if she's got less than 10,000 potions she'll need more. Of course, the number might be different, but that's my general idea :P

Refreshing definitely works. Both times I got beaten to the bone, but the second time the first person didn't add the right number of drops, so I got it. I just held down f5 and lifted my finger every 3 seconds or so.

Woo hoo! I just dug up my first grave! About how long do I have to wait to do another?

I usually get to test the bone using the wait button while the grave is still being dug *shrugs* Maybe I'm just lucky.

About 5 minutes.

Right, I'm slightly confused now. Do you take some potion from Sophie before or after you've dug a grave? Are we either digging graves OR testing bones? Or can we do both?
Again, not playing well with others...

Or maybe you have a really fast computer and connection...

I don't, so I have to rely on refreshing.

You can only do one at a time, dig or test bones. So its a tossup to go for the easy bet of digging or the more rewarding and rarer testing bones

You can't really do both :P If you have a potion with you you can't help dig graves. You can finish digging a grave, go back to sophie to get a potion and try to test the bones, but by then someone else probably beat you to it. It's better to wait for another group to finish digging while you have the potion, then test the bones as soon as they're done (requires alot of refreshing).

I'm having pretty much the same problem, I don't work well with others.
First I have a very slow connection 1 to 2 minutes to load each page everytime, so I always get kicked out.
Also what the heck are we doing digging graves untill we find a bone or what.
The guide on the first page is not specific enough, do we have to do all three tasks or do we do one? Is one task related to the other or not? These are things that should be (and hopefully) will be added to the first page guide.

EDIT: Well that sounded really rude, I apologize. I hate having dial up, this sucks big time.

I was talking about when testing the bones, but i found how to do it now, But what is the exact formua is it weight divided by volume then square root the number you get, then multiply by 25 and round?
