Interestingly enough, my second door has regained it's link... Nothing new in there, but odd all the same.

Interesting...I checked my door, and it's working again, too. I guess it wasn't intended to be shut off once you were done? {shrugs} It's nice to be able to see that TBC message again, after all that hard work...

After I finished all the leftover codes and went to the To Be Continued page, the door link was live again for me. That could have simply been coincidence, however.

Just wanted to wish everyone good luck with whatever part of the plot they're working on, because I need to do something positive when I'm this annoyed. xD

I hate that puzzle. Did it take anyone else over 10 hours to solve it? Because I'm at a little over nine right now, and I'm concerned. And that's not including the few hours I spent before I got a combination making method down.

Stupid not-the-right-Garoo-message tricking me.
And then spending 2 hours on my final O puzzle, the one it has to be... and getting to the last combination, and realizing that somewhere during that two hours I apparently missed one.

So, yeah.
Wishing you good luck before I all

and explode. XD

Can't take much more of the lime green font...

I'm not going to say something encouraging like "have faith" at this point - because I know for me it didn't work when I was at the stage you are now.

My advice:
Step 1: Go play "Whack A Staff-Member" and imagine you're hitting the person who designed this evil evil application.
Step 2: Go and have a huge yelling fit where no-one can hear/see you and wonder why you're so upset over what they call "just" a game.
Step 3: Go and hit a pillow. Hard. This can be included with step 2 if you feel like it.
Step 4: Get out of the room/house/immediate area and go for a run. Your frustration needs to be let out some way.
Step 5: For comfort and support, the channel #neopets on IRC (go download a client called MIRC) and log onto irc.undernet.org will understand exactly how you're feeling and you can chat in realtime. I'll be there for a little while.

Edit:
Step 6: Throw your computer out of the window
Step 7: Hunt down the evil staff member who made this plot and yell at them/congratulate them on the fact that this is in fact better than the Lost Desert scroll-hunting plot.

I've been working on it since it came out. I finished it yesterday at 3am.

took my friend 2 solid days of helping me with combos before I got it. I personally want to find the person and kill them.

This makes atr and the potions from sophie seem like childs play.

It didn't take that long....IF you got the timing right the first time.

If you didn't...

Plus, there was the last potion combination trying - where no one knew what ingredients to use for what, days?

The one group had their final potion found fast the other two took forever remember>

Where as this nightmare had zillions of combinations and its an absolute nightmare of base6 math whatever that is (as my friends keep saying) I am just thrilled to be finally caught up.
