So in that split moment when I have found and clicked on the grave (if, more like) that is the only split moment I should make sure to have that Caretaker link handy then, eh? Yes, I think I shall skip this step and just hope I can still progress in the plot after. Life beckons and I would love to participate but the odds of finding an unmarked grave are severely against me right now. A few times I saw one just a step ahead or so, but alas by the next click/refresh it was gone. Arrr. Methinks there might be cheaters!
No anjuna, don't give up! I tried many times and many graveyards before I managed to get one...it can be done, just keep working on it!!

I appreciate the encouragement. I might try again tomorrow. I am just not losing any sleep over this tonight (okay maybe just a little, heh). I just think it is a sad day when PPT loads three times faster for me than Neopets. No offense PPT. *there, there, pets*

I dunno, I with you anjuna. I have to even see an unmarked grave. Even when I click on a graveyard that has just come up on the list they are already done. I think i'm done with this part. There is just no way for me to even get close to grave that hasn't been checked.

Ok I finally found one but am at a loss of what to do. For once a First Post would be handy. Ahem.

13th day of Celebrating,

(You've already written down a name to find in the books! You should head back to the Caretaker's Vault and deal with that first.)
So I refresh on the Caretaker and find click thru a few shelves to find :: The books on this shelf are all for deaths that occurred in the month of Celebrating.
Now what? *Feels very dumb.*
EDIT: Sorry Scott, going back to the Plot Council I realize is a walkthrough. Is that the step? just find the right book? Odd there is no confirmation I did anything right.

Oh yay, I just got one. d-(^_^)z anjuna, I definitely feel what you're saying. This plot is very...discouraging. Giving up is so easy. BUT, if it's any constellation (word choice?), I LOVE your sig crab. He's cool. Cooler than cool. He's so cool that he doesn't feel any heat when he's dropped in a bubbling pot of butter.

I haven't got a clue anjuna. If I ever do manage to find one, I'll let you know lol

Simple. Keep checking the shelves until they bring up a book of names. Then you just find your guy or gal and check it off.

"What's taking so long? Why are you dilly-dallying, huh? We've got graves to mark off! Go find another grave."
Book of names? Geez I have yet to find that. I click on a shelf and it just tells me all the books on the shelf are for a certain time. I feel so dumb tonight.
PS - Thanks for the crab compliment. That analogy cracked me up.

At this point all I'm feeling is irritated. No matter what graveyard I go it it's done already. What one are you in that there are unchecked ones still?

No, no, no. You keep checking different shelves for the book of names. If it tells you the books on the shelf are for a certain time, then that means you need to go to a different shelf. So, you're looking for the shelf with the book for the month of Celebrating. Look for it darn you!! You shouldn't get a message if you get the right shelf. Instead, you should get the actual book itself.

Did you click on another grave before this one, it might be that you clicked on another one before this and so the system registered you to find that one instead of this one....

Ahh, no, basically the advice given earlier is the best. Refresh at the graveyard list until a new one or few show, and click on the last or one of the last and RUN thru the graveyard streaking (ok not streaking)
until you see an unmarked grave. Click accurately or if you intuit slow bandwidth even ahead further. Yes it is a mad rush. If you are 'lucky' in your efforts you will find one. If not, and bandwidth or slow computer are frustrating you, maybe try later or tomorrow when the rush is slower? (I hope.)ggagahc wrote:No, no, no.

Ohh, well that IS weird. I clearly was at the grave with some Y of Celebrating and on the shelf of that, but no book. I had however clicked on a grave earlier, and misclicked back out because I saw the red X instead of reading below. I wonder if I was still 'on' that last grave?
EDIT: Yes, and yes. You guys are far too fast for me tonight.

That's what I had been trying but now my list isn't even changing. I don't know....

I was having a really hard time finding graves also. But I did manage to grab a few and this is how I did it:
Keep refreshing on the graves list until a new one comes up.
As soon as you are in the graveyard go left or right or up or down (depending on the configuration). Keep going till you are near the end.
People seem to be grabbing the front graves first. So heading deep into the grave yard seems to be working okay. BUT it isn't a perfect plan, people still beat me sometimes. It seems to work okay though.

This tells you that the grave you went to BEFORE this one was the one you marked. Hope you can find/remember that name :/
The way I got my grave:
Waited until more than 1 new graveyard came up.
While most everyone else went o the bottom one; I went to the 2nd bottom on in the list. Gave me just enough time to actually get to one near the back and down a row (don't even bother with the edges)
