Who is whining? Everyone so far has so far agreed to give her the chips. The problem is, Rad hasnt updated, so we really cant do much.

In a certain way...
We don't get any further with just doing random stuff, and Rad will probably also find it annoying.

We really don't have a plan eitherwise, and we've already spent a page agreeing on the chips part. IMO just give her the (-) chips, go to the room Minmay said to move to, and let's get a (-) move on.

Sorry guys, WC3. Forgot this existed.

I walked back east into the room with L33tz4n. "L33tz4n," I offered, "would you like a bag of chips?" I held up a bag of chips to add illustration to my statement.
"Oh, no thanks," she said, "I'm not hungry."
I suddenly felt a bit hurt, kind of like days of planning had gone to waste. "Are you sure?" I asked, "I can open the bag for you."
"Yes... I'm sure."
"Oh. Okay." I decided I should probably make this less awkward by examining stuff. I went over to the skeleton; the cracks under it looked to be long frozen over. I stabbed them a bit with my spear, but it bounced back off without doing any damage. I thought I could make out something long moving under the ice, but it was too distant to identify.
Next, I travelled north to the fountain room, north again to another hallway, and through the glowing door to the west.
This room had two crystals in it. One was shaped like a raindrop, or a sphere with a pointy top. The other was a sort of rounded triangle, or like a sphere with three distinct points on it.

EDIT: And read the Tarot Cards.

I feeling a little ticked right now...

DON'T SCREW WITH THOSE CRYSTALS!

And forget the bloody chips. You are irritating rad >

Let's try what Cooba suggested back in page 1. rotate the crystals so the points on them are pointing left (Assuming we are facing NORTH, point them to the WEST)

I agree with Cooba, Puffie, and Wallace. I mean, we've already impaled ourselves six times. Although not interacting with them at all is stretching it a bit; we can go ahead and rotate them/slide them around. Just don't pick them up or take them out of the room.

EDIT: And I don't think I'm irritating Rad by having Faw eat a chip.

The tarot cards might hold a hint or something. Go E, S and ask Araches if she knows how to use tarot cards.

And ask her if she knows what it feels like to be impaled.

EDIT: And draw L33tz4n in the sketchbook.

Once you cast a spell you can't cast it again for another several hours/for the rest of the battle, so we have never had a chance to see if we can summon multiple mythslayers.

I'd expect it to be possible, but what would you do with a whole bunch of summons outside of a battle?

I think Emp wishes to use the Mythslayers as a bunch of test dummies if we ever need to pick up the crystals ever again.

Com'on guys! All we are doing is running around like chickens with their heads cut off doing stupid things. LOOK AT COOBA'S REASONING AT PAGE 1

LOOK AT IT!
LOOK AT IT!
LOOK AT IT!

We have tried picking up the crystals (With painful results) So now lets try rotating them. Logically, these traps don't activate until the crystal leaves it's place, so if the crystal rotates while on the same spot...

Then let's rotate the ones in this room and see what happens.

No particular direction, just rotate them and see if they don't kill us.

Actually, before Faw put down the crystal and got impaled, he rotated the pyramid a little. It didn't hurt him. So it should be safe.

...and no matter who picks up the gem/puts down the crystal, Faw is the one that gets impaled. This puzzle is, I believe, built so that the third time we pick up a gem/put down the crystal, Faw dies and we restart.

That or the red herring is built that way, if it turns out the gems have nothing to do with the solution

Well then it wouldn't work, as stated no matter who does the removal, Faw gets impaled. Do you hate him that much?

Puffie, NO!!
The shape of the crack, I just thought if the crystal thingies are from the crack (pretty bs idea, but I've got nothing else for now)

edit: plz do it AFTER moving the pointy ends of the crystals towards west...
