Thanks KateVa! Was that what the Bahro looked like when you saw them from the palace balcony?

Click to reveal..
Interesting that Yeesha is still wearing that blue necklace she acquired in Serenia in Myst IV. The one that gives her flashbacks into the past. And she's dyed her hair red again -- for some reason I find that cheering. grin

With the Bahro gone, who will supply the December sparklie? Will we have to live with an empty slot for a whole year?

Thanks for the spoiler tags, Becky. It didn't occur to me that that would be a spoiler because it isn't something people can go experience for themselves. Anyone who wasn't there when it happened (*pout*) is going to have to learn about it by word of mouth either in game or on a board somewhere. But I would never want to spoil someone else's fun so tag away! lol

Click to reveal..
I'm going to miss the Bahro, too. I never cared about the DRC or saw that they made much of a difference in my day-to-day D'ni life so I'm not really upset that they are gone, either. Never been a big fan of government-type organizations being involved in my life so I'm just fine depending on myself and my friends to pull together and create a better Cavern. smile


Melanie, I didn't get back in the game last night (darn this need for sleep!) but I will be in for a bit tonight and will add you to my KI. I think I'm close to finishing Ahnonay but...

Click to reveal..
I have a feeling I'm at the part where I've heard a buddy is needed, so I'm hoping some Boomies will be on tonight. smile

I'm worn out ~~~

Click to reveal..
I'm waterlogged! I keep swimming after I've jumped off the 2 rocks and I see the island with steps and a tiny sandy beach but I can't reach it. I just see it drift past. I guess the current is taking me away from it or whatever. Maybe it isn't the right place to be?


I have tried so many times that I am starting to get worse, not better. Well, I did manage to click on a green journey cloth, for whatever that is worth.


To love is to be happy with!

Sierramindy - I can relate! I had the same problem until Katva gave me a hint. Click here if you want to see it:

Click to reveal..
Jump straight ahead off that second rock and swim in a northeast direction towards the horizon. Don't turn and swim directly towards the tower or the current takes you right past it.


Hope that helps!

Woe is me! The harder I try the worse I get. This has changed from adventure to action and I'm getting bored! I'll try again a few days from now and see if I can make it. For now I need a break, a nice long one.

Hi Celtic Lark and all,

No problem about not getting back. I met up with Dudemom and she got me back in the GB neighborhood so now I'm where I belong again and I finished the cleft last night so will be ready to visit the zero and then start working the cities.

I probably won't be back to the game until late tonight. My hubby is in the hospital and I'm going to visit today so by the time I play tonight pacific time, I hope I run into you all. Becky I just missed you. I was away when you came on and by the time I came back you must have quit for the night. smile

I have a dumb question, actually a few, I picked up some cloths (line drawings) that are not journey cloths in my journal and when I click them all they do is highlight. What are they?
Also, how do you get stuff to decorate your relto? How do I know the name of the city I'm going to? It's not written anywhere.

Thanks!!

SierraMindy,

Try this little video of one technique for getting to the tower against the currents. As Kate mentioned (and I as well earlier in this topic) the keys are:

Click to reveal..
1. Jump out from the second rock with the RUN (SWIM) buttons pressed.

2. Aim in the right direction. You'll notice that this guy immediately aimed to the right of the scenery when swimming. I actually aim a little farther right than he does, but I notice he gradually aimed more and more to the right, accomplishing the task.

Give it a look.

Melanie,

Those items you have picked up are know as Relto Pages. There are 15 or so located all over URU. They add scenery, decorations, and other items to your Relto. They can be "turned on" or "turned off" by clicking on the symbol in your Relto Book, then re-linking back to Relto. Bright green is OK, dull green is OFF.

There is a resource at the Guildofgreeters.com website for the pages available and their locations.

Have fun!

Dadguy

Oh, Thanks, Dadguy! I was wondering how to decorate my relto! So I just click them on and then go to the relto? Thanks!!

That video is super too!

Hi dadguy,
I clicked on the link in your post and got the message: This content requires Adobe Flash Player 9. Would you like to install it now? I clicked YES. Installation was successful and the version I got was 9,0,47,0. But when I try the link, instead of seeing a video, I get that same message again. So I installed it a second time, still got the message not the video, but didn't install it a third time. Still can't get the video though, so what am I doing wrong here?

Maybe your computer is not allowing it to install for security reasons. Does it have an option to save to your computer? If so, try saving it and installing yourself.

Okay, I'm giving up. I won't be able to get back in the game until Sunday. My siblings and I are throwing a surprise 60th birthday party for my mom this weekend (shhhhh.... don't tell her) and I've spent every night this week in preparations. By the time I'm done, all I want is bed. sleep

So has anything happened in the game...

Click to reveal..
...since the DRC left and Yeesha led the Bahro from the City? Is the episode over?


Melanie - I hope to see you Sunday. smile

Sierramindy - I would second Melanie's suggestion. Those installations can get a bit quirky and I'm not that great at trouble-shooting them. But I'm sure dadguy or one of the others will be more helpful.

Awwww, Celtic - hope to see you in the game soon - have a nice celebration with your family wave

Thanks for the "hint" Becky (without totally spoiling) - found the shiny bright sparklie!! yay

Ok, now off to figure out Ahnonay (I seem to be stuck in water and crystal ages)....

Celtic -- the only plot point that seems to have happened after that is
Click to reveal..
that Sharper returned to the cavern. You can read the log here.

That happened on the 6th.

It may be that, even though the episodes are over, characters may show up in the tavern for brief periods to report on what they're doing between now and Season Two. At least, that's my hope. laugh Of course, I could be very wrong.

Hi Celtic Lark,
I guess "quirky" can be a good word for that installation, or maybe for me, I'm not sure which right now! See message to Melanie.
Hi Melanie,
I wasn't sure if I could follow your advice because I don't know where stuff is on my computer, but I was going to try. Then I thought I would go to dadguy's link one more time to read the Adobe Flash Player message again, just in case it made more sense to me this time after reading your post. You will never guess what happened! The video came on and played and I got to see him swimming and reaching the island, what a surprise! I watched it twice to make sure of what I was seeing!
Hi dadguy,
Many thanks for that video. I get too impatient I reckon and start thrashing around changing directions instead of just swimming. Also I noticed the pixel (well, sort of) where he jumped off the second rock and I have been jumping off closer to the left or middle than as far right as he did, so maybe that was another mistake. Anyway, I'm off to try again and now at least I know how it should work if I get it right. Thanks again.


To love is to be happy with!

Sierramindy,

AdobeFlash player is a good add-on to have on Internet Explorer. There are many many web pages that use it for displaying video. I was going to suggest that you might have to close IE, then open again to get the new flash player to work after installing. Glad you got it!

Click to reveal..
The point where you jump off the second rock is not critical.. the guy in the video was just a little sloppy (trying to keep the movie as short as possible). You can take your time getting to the second rock, just remember to aim RIGHT of the scenery and keep aiming right of it by adjusting as you swim.(


Cheers,

Dadguy

Hi Dadguy,
I'm trying, I'm trying, and getting nowhere. Once I was near the island at that sandy point but the game hung up or something and I couldn't get on it although I was standing right by it, so I tried jumping up on it and instead I jumped way past it back into the water and the current. Aargh! I do get close sometimes, other times I don't even make the jump to the second rock but land in the water instead and no way can one swim against that current. Still I guess I'm doing better than the very first time that I tried and jumped into the water by the waterfall when I was trying to jump across it to the next rock. I thought those must be the 2 rocks I was looking for back then. Anyway that turns out to be a total dead end as I learned after going around and around a few times!
BTW, is there anything else to do on Ahnonay besides the swimming thing?

Hi SierraMindy, I'm glad you got it downloaded. It's easy to tell it where to go when you dl something. In the bar where it says save to, just click on desktop and it will be easy to find. Then all you have to do is go to your desktop and click the program to install. (for the next time you need it). What I meant was that usually when you click on a program you get a dialog asking if you want to save or open. You can click save instead of open. I hope that's fairly clear. I know I didn't explain it in the right order. lol.

Celtic, I'm afraid I'm going to miss you on Sunday! My bro-in-law is flying in on Sat night so he'll be here thru Mon. I doubt I'll be online till monday night. Think we'll ever meet up??? lol.

Well, it looks like I'm going to need help in teledahn. I can't make it to the bucket in time so need someone to help me by throwing the switch so I can jump in. I'm just not coordinated or fast enough yet. frown I'm hoping I'll run into someone with time to visit with me.

See you all later.

PS: I visited Zero and started my markers too!

Melanie

Renee - Thanks for the fun party wishes. The planning has been a bit stressful (isn't it always?) but I know my mom is going to love it.

Becky - Thank you for your last spoiler. And you were right about the meaning of exodus so hopefully you'll be right about this too!

Sierramindy - Nothing wrong with being quirky. We all have a few quirks that make us unique. smile And as for the troubles you are having in Ahnonay (sp?), hopefully you can meet up with one of us soon and we can help you out. I know how frustrating it is not to get something in the game. I'm a little further in the age but I'm at a point where I'm going to need some help, too.

Melanie - sorry we can't meet up on Sunday but I'm sure we will meet at some point. I should play a few weeknights next week so I can finish the new age. Have fun with your brother-in-law!

And don't forget the Cavern Choir concert, everyone, on December 16th! We're ironing out more of the details this weekend at our final rehearsal so I'll keep you all posted. I believe it will be in one of the Bevins and we may have people go to our website to get "tickets" so we can control the amount of people in the audience and reduce lag. Hope everyone can make it!

sierramindy, please share your KI number (again, in case you have done it already) with us and we'll look for you to try to help. There is lots and lots to do in Ahnonay besides swimming!!

CelticLark, I just realized you are one of our sopranos! CelticLark and I are both singers in the Cavern Choir (I'm a baritone). For those who might like to hear last year's concert, check out the recordings here... 4 songs, not too long, but very haunting and beautiful renaissance music:

Hey dadguy! I thought that you might be the same "dadguy" I've heard about from Dom but I wasn't sure. It's funny how we're all singing "together" but we're a bit segregated since we mainly interact with Dom and the other people in our sections. Nice to "meet" you. Thanks for posting that link. I can't wait to hear what our holiday concert sounds like, especially "O Magnum". I loved recording that piece.

"See" you in rehearsal on Saturday!

The cavern choir is beautiful! Thanks for posting the link, Dadguy! How talented you all are!

I tried setting up my old mike today. I hope it will work reasonably well. We'll check it out the next time I play. Untill I get a new one it will have to suffice if it works, that is. lol

I played with Becky and Mikeplay last night and we ran into a whole crowd who helped me complete my two ages to get my wedge and rings. My relto is sure getting pretty now! smile What fun! Thanks Becky, Mikeplay and all who were so patient with me teaching me how to open the doors. bravo
