Brownie points!!!

I want some too...

My only problem with that quest is that i had to use player help/info to get the examine items thing, and never found a decent clue to it around. But then again, i am wearing glasses to see far and another pair to see the screen....... When i remember it. Or after 40 minutes when my headach begins to remind me to change them...

It would've taken me a week to do that.

Pen & paper FTW!

This way the entire quest took me less than 3 hours. All that including the time when in the beginning I tried the PnP approach but scrapped it soon after, preparing food for the kids, putting them to sleep, writing scripts to display rooms as ABC etc. etc.

Leisurely pace, no errors, no problem.

Gosh, now it makes sense why people love this quest. Examining plants in thirty rooms, making a spreadsheet, and meeting a guy in the middle of nowhere for no reason and no reward to speak of. Can we post this screenshot on our chrome app to attract new players?

It's this quest that keeps me playing, gives hope for the rest of them!

I must say that I enjoyed this quest greatly. Just like Zodiac and obelisk quests in Terel.

Those quests are fun, specially if you get stuck in the NIM game. But they also reward properly, this is much harder and rewards way less. The only reason this is even attempted now days is for Mercs, All orb completion or ignorance of the difficulty.

This literally should be the highest rewarded quest in game based on not being able to create a walkthrough and the headache it gives.

If the reward is changed, I do hope we who have already done it are rewarded accordingly :-P

I agree! Using pen and paper, I did it in probably 45 minutes to an hour back in 1994. Zhar, you are just a sucker for lovingly-crafted charts, I think. ;-)
