The Solution Page is now visitable. Here's a neat little addition, Ilere's door says "DANCE FRIEND AND ENTER".  zzzzZING! I loved that. ___________________________ EDIT: Also, they made a note to point out that the Acara Nurse's cell door was covered in RUST, not blood.  *fraun* That's wierd, I just can't see where the runes for "dance friend and enter" are... all the words I see on there seem to have the wrong number of letters. In the last word I can see an "R" shape and two "M" shapes that look like e's on their sides, but... if that's the case, they've spelt "enter" wrong  Oh... don't tell me it's actually in ancient rune-language as opposed to having rune letters replace the English alphabet? That's just a bit too subtle for me. I wouldn't have minded if it was in Latin or some other language that's still being taught at schools, but... |

That's just a bit too subtle for me. I wouldn't have minded if it was in Latin or some other language that's still being taught at schools, but... If you copy the image into a program that lets you zoom in, you can see that the words at the top of the tablet--the little marks arcing over the main stone--are arranged in a way that you can believe they say "dance friend and enter". "Friend" is the clearest word of the four; "enter" is barely more than chicken scratches and "dance" is obscured by shadows. I don't think you'd figure it out if you didn't know what they said. The marks are shrunk too much. The markings on the main stone seem to be just random carvings. The first word looks kind of like "gasp", though. Or "crsp". *shrug* |

And I forgot that the image was originally a flash game thing... |

I noticed they also made it a point to include a link to every TCG card that was related to the plot. Touche, Neo team. However, I will still stick to my claim that there were fewer plot-related cards in this plot than previous ones, and that these cards did not reveal a cohesive storyline prior to the online beginning of the plot. Isn't that a good thing? You don't want to know too much of the plot before it actually starts.. |

I kinda' felt like I already knew the ending to the LD plot before it happened, and that TNT had to add Lord Razul in there to throw us all for a loop. But I do love trying to piece together the plot beforehand. ^____^ |

I like how they linked to the plot-related cards. And I prefer it when they don't give away too much of the plot in the cards. ^^ I like it when they include plot elements but don't give away too much. Like the Acara Nurse card. That one didn't look like it was definitely going to figure into the story, and the room full of bodies was never a scene from the plot, but we recognized her as Lucy.

Did they award Haunted Wood plot prizes yet? Because I am pretty sure I finished the plot. Just wanted to make sure I am not missing anything... It's been quite a while.
