Oh, and YES!!!! Up 1-0!!!! :)

That's a good idea EF, makes me want to drink the green even more.

I would if I had a vote. Or if votes counted for anything. Instead Team Double K will arise victorious.

We have PB. We have hoops. We have someone else that I can't remember. We rule.

Poli, I don't really have animosity towards you, I was just expecting you to take a step back from things and let it cool down, I'm still shocked about what happened and I think others are too

I am still curious about the response the DJ gave us when we walked past chest one. As if we missed something important.

He snickered at us, yes? It's hard to tell what that means at this juncture, we might've missed a monster or something like that since other people seemed to have gained experience yesterday.

(duly noted, if you'd rather I disappear from your thread I will respect that)

Jay Two Three is our third member and just proves that our all star team will dominate this competition.

I'd back the two people who have run RPG/maze like games before if I were you (being me and Abe)

I am thinking that chest 3 held the battle/negative result (the one we seemed to be caustioned against). I could be reading too much into things though.

If CR wants to go back and check that chest he's welcome to but I think I'm gonna drink that green fountain

Should we put in a conditional to say that if nothing positive happens that I'll drink from the red, or if I'm unconscious or something, one of you drinks from it?

I am thinking that we should put in conditionals like that (so we don't get stuck in the room).

Combining may be an option that we put into one of our conditionals.

Combining as in what?

Oh, combining the two liquids, I see.

If we can do conditionals we could include CR going back to check chest one if other options aren't working. If CR is good with that.

We'll see if CR pops in in the next 30 minutes, if not, I'll drink from the green fountain, and if nothing happens would you rather drink from the red or combine the two and drink that?

Yeah let's see if he shows up, you going to be around till the deadline to discuss?

I guess there are a couple questions now. If one person could go back and check chest one while others perform tasks in this room and if conditionals can be given.

Going to have this up in the background and try to check in every few minutes.

I guess we need to put together a plan now though, then we can adjust it if other ideas come up prior to the deadline.

Plan:

A) Jackal drinks from the green fountain

if no exit is found and Jackal is still conscious:
B1) Jackal drinks from the red fountain
if no exit is found and Jackal is unconscious:
B2) EF combines the liquids and drinks it

if no exit is found after this then CR backtracks to box 1?

Overthinking again but what colors do green and red usually represent in RPG games?

Isn't red usually a health bar or portions?

Red is generally a health bar, yes. Green I'm not so sure about.

Blue is mana, or power, or whatever, in general.

Green is movement, sometimes?

IF we are going in that order should we all go back with CR? Jus tin case there is some sort of battle triggered?

I agree with making that the last possible option, just in case.

Yeah we might as well all go back, I don't think that would slow us down.

The if in capitals meant nothing, just heavy handed on the shift key.

That points towards the idea of drinking green. Should we all do so in that case?

I'd let me drink it first and see what happens. If any of these are successful I think we put in the condition that the rest of the team follows suit.

Sounds good.

Something like this...?



A) Jackal drinks from the green fountain

if positive result we all drink green (unless we have already found exit then we leave)

if no exit is found and Jackal is still conscious:
B1) Jackal drinks from the red fountain

if positive result from this we all drink red (unless we have already found exit then we leave)

if no exit is found and Jackal is unconscious:
B2) EF combines the liquids and drinks it

if positive result from this we all drink combined (unless we have already found exit then we leave)


if no exit is found after this then all backtrack to box 1 where CR detects and opens?

Yeah go ahead and PM that over

unless you have any late input CR

Sent, but feel free to send updated.

Only have a few more minutes before I will be stepping away.

Stupid early file work. Way too late for me to contribute here.

You guys have hit on most of the points I had been thinking, with drinking one of the liquids being the best option. Maybe even drinking both (one of us drinks one, one of us drinks the other). Too bad we don't have an empty flask (one was for sale at the shop).

I don't like the idea of going back. I don't see a benefit worth doing so, at the cost of losing time. Unless we have no choice, of course.

BTW, I was think red light-green light, too.

But, FWIW, while green means poison, red often means danger. I don't know we can make a good read either way.

I didn't know what to make of the symbols. Weird that we can make out the sun-moon, but not the ones on the other fountain.

Maybe that's the hint? The muddled symbols==confusion. The sun-moon==clarity (clear as night and day)?

I think the main reason EF wanted to go back was because he felt that first chest may have contained the key to exiting this current room, but I think drinking liquids should get it done.

In that case, I would drink from the sun-moon fountain, if we drink from one.

Well, too late to switch things now, but I think as long as the green fountain doesn't kill me the time wasted by drinking that first if it isn't the correct choice won't be too terrible.

I am with you. I think we probably just missed a helpful item.

Late thought now but it just hit me, I was wonding if the chest one contained something that would allow us to interpret the symbols on the one fountain.

More overthinking on my part most likley...

Good luck... Have to step away for a while but will check back later.

Well that was successful.

Very skeptical about the medallion.

Do we need to let you know about the medallion before we get the next room info?

No. Any time.

Okay, well I'm off to lunch.

Will the results of the button press happen instantly or will all be processed at 9?
