Lost Desert Plot Discussion #55 (Summary in First Post)

[JhasNeeh]

How long would you say it took for them to make that stand? Assuming the gap is similar for all we have a LONG wait. 3 days if it was only 1 minute, but over 2 weeks if it was more like 5. Mabye they will want help when they realise how slow they are.

I think we have to wait for a sertain amount of furniture...

edit: now I have 2 scroll racks...

[skyfire]

based on the handful of sand calculations, I think we figured we have about 6,000 players participating at this point in the plot

And presumably a few more people have joined us.

Of course, that's countered by the fact that toting sand was over the weekend and toting blocks was during the week when people are usually more likely to be busy with work/school.

So maybe if we had 6k moving sand over the weekend some 4k moving blocks (although it was 5 to a block, many of them moved multiple blocks so I figure it's loosely comparative... numbers don't need to be exact).

I hope when the city is restored they have a lot of Chiropractors and Masseurs/Masseuses available.

Well I hope they speed up a bit - at the rate they're going it will take about a week, and that's if they're only making 4330 items. If they make more (as some jolly soul suggested finishing this plot could be our Christmas gift

As for this plot... yes it's busy work and no I haven't enjoyed the waiting between activities, but you must admit:

The rewards have been great!! Some made millions on selling sand, and Paintburshes & PetPets!! How can you top that!!

I had a blast seeing other people's fancy pets and neomailing and chatting with other players on a whole new level!

TNT has given others many opportunities to catch up, which has also been neat.

I agree with all of this! Especially seeing others pets. I'm glad they didn't make it stat related, because everyone would have been using their lab pet, and it was more of a "put your best pet forward" kind of thing. Really neat. I do LOVE the teamwork!

Yes, and I think it's going to be a fraction of 4,330; like 1/4 or 1/6.

Edit: Wee! Too many views. Someone else is going to host it in a second.

I'm still working on the map, so it should probably update periodically.

Updated basement map.

Erm, I know it's not complete - but how do you get into the rooms in the top right?

[Jetro]

watching them build this is like trying to watch water boil. taking foreeevvvveeeerrrrrr.....

[rugrat0ne]

So, do you think it's safe to walk away from the computers for a bit? Ihate missing stuff, but if all we're doing is watching numbers fill up on a screen, sloooowly, then....

[silhouette169]

My only fear is that the waiting will all be happening while I have time at NP and then when I need to do things like work and sleep it will all start happining again...
There seems to be some movement tho Up to 2 racks like eveyone else.

[endeavourl]

It says "You can take a look at our progress if ya like. You'd best get familiar with this stuff."

But where do we look at the stuff? There isnt a picture or anything, or a link to click.
