Yay, just tested my second bone. The tip given in this thread about waiting while someone else is testing and just refreshing worked really well. :)

Seconded... minus the midterm, but I should really get to work on everything school-related. I was up until 7am last night digging and testing. :oops:

When you are at the page with sophie on it, there are three choices: Find an ingredient for her potion back at her shack, take an already made potion and use it to test the bones already dug up, or just continue through the graveyard of your choice to dig for bones.

I hope that helps :D


Ah yes, I get it now. I just misunderstood the other post. Thanks for clarifying for me. :)

Anyone remembers how long the "moving blocks" stage on the LDP lasted?

Oh my goodness, thank you. I was not looking forward to the math part.

No - but I have spotted a wise move by TNT in relation. If you remember, the number of blocks in the LDP was fixed, so by the time came for us not living in USA to get up and join in, there weren't many remaining. Here they have an infinite number , seeing as the number of graveyards is based purely on how many we get through. I think this might be available all the way through until the next comic is brought out, supposedly on Monday night.

Do we have to participate in all three steps? (digging, testing and gathering ingrediants) or can we just happily dig to our heart's content? Because I'm not patient enough for the testing, nor the ingrediant gathering.

**edit**

also, I'm currently at O9343D. (8, 36) waiting for three other people to help me dig.

One thing I'm still not getting: why is everyone so obsessed with testing the bones? Digging gives much better rewards, and the chances of finding the correct bones are incredibly slim...

I'm wondering the same thing. But I'm thinking that we need to participate in all three (to some extent at least) in order to advance the plot.

So true. While I don't play well with others by any means, I'm having a lot more fun digging and discovering things rather than running around trying to test bones. At least with digging graves you feel like you're getting somewhere.

I honestly think people feel that the bone testing, or at least getting to the bones, is the most challenging and so they talk more about it.

Since there is waiting period between each of a few minutes, most people are doing all three activities even though they are not needing to. It fills the time waiting for the activity they enjoy most.
