details regarding needle in haystack-type event

Due to the general confusion and/or disinterest in this:

The last day has been a blur. I must confess the very idea of returning to Odyssey was distinctly difficult for me to face... but what was worth letting someone take something that wasn't his in the first place? Then again, what difference would it make? I'd done the same to ... others.

I decided that I was going to try to do the right thing.

I contacted the Head of Security at the Archaelogical Building. He informed me there was a break-in, and the Monrael Stone was taken... most certainly by Marcus. But unbeknownst to Marcus - or whoever it was that broke in - the item was quite delicate. The head of security, among other answers, stated that it was confirmed the item had been broken. And Marcus only got away with one piece... it is unconfirmed that his workers left him and lost the pieces of the Monrael Stone.

I must tell you - find the pieces. They are somewhere around here.

... here are the specifics:

The pieces of the stone are hidden in posts around the ToO. It is a race against time... and also probably Marcus, if what I surmise is correct.

WHat do you mean they're hidden in posts? I don't get it.

Angel · Post by **Angel** » Sat Jul 21, 2007 2:31 pm

I think there is a picture of the hidden pieces in random posts around the ToO (like having a picture of the needle). All we have to do is search for the post and picture.

I can't get the chat to work though, so I guess I'll just have to spend all day looking for the pieces.

I'm on the chat now!

Candy · Post by **Candy** » Sat Jul 21, 2007 3:16 pm

I'll try to get on the chat... but I'm not sure If I'll be able to or not.

Angel · Post by **Angel** » Sat Jul 21, 2007 3:21 pm

Java hates my computer. I don't think I'll ever be able to go on the chat....

Auugh. I've been searching for the past hourish and haven't found anything.

It's slow going, because I keep stopping to read old posts.

Does John Seles perhaps know how many pieces this thing was broken into?

Angel · Post by **Angel** » Sat Jul 21, 2007 10:18 pm

I hope it was broken into a million pieces....then I may have a chance of finding one.

... CoT. >_>. That would so terribly un-original.

I'm not sure if John would know how many pieces the stone broke up into...
... but apparently it's more than one.

I don't think they will do that again. (at least I hope they don't, because I'm not looking through her posts at all)

But oh so funny. $\:D/$

Pieces usually indicate more than one.

I'm not sure if I want in on this or not, but my suggestion would be to have anyone who wants to do this get together and divide up where to look by either forum or peoples' posts...that way the whole forum gets checked and there's not ten different people looking all in the same spot. (Maybe you guys have already done this and I don't know because I don't know how to get on the chat and don't really talk to anyone on the ToO outside of the ToO, but I thought I'd throw it out there just in case.

)

Angel · Post by **Angel** » Sun Jul 22, 2007 12:58 pm

That is a brilliant idea....but we are going to need several people for the job...I'm willing to do it though.

JesusIsAlive · Post by **JesusIsAlive** » Sun Jul 22, 2007 1:33 pm

I would do it, but I am gonna be gone from around 5 tonight 'til sometime tomorrow (Prolly in the afternoon.)
