Haha, like how you get the Infamous award. We're not that bad are we?
Hahaha. Isn't the second largest thread on your forums called the "drunk thread"? I think that answers your question. :p

Bah, planning issues.
Does that mean you have designed the game to handle that, if that situation happens, or is that a bug (a dead end)? A respawning knife, or another way to cut the cactus and then cut it in half?

It's not a dead end, because if you need the knife to cut the cactus, you can always retrieve it from the cave floor.

You can untie Rosella with your hands. That's what I've always done.

You need another item. Think Space Quest 6.


I also had that broom with me and no award. Haven't played SQ6. But since many items are mandatory to have in this game (and until the end), that leaves items which you either don't need to pick up at all, or which somehow respawn after their "use", or an item which you can use but don't necessarily have to. In this case, food comes to mind. You don't necessarily have to feed the apples or bread to Manannan, which means they could still be with you at the end. Feeding the eagle can be done with the ham or with the fish, which means it could be either one of those too. I fed the fish to the eagle, since I had reserved the food from the house to the wizard, and used them up before feeding him the porridges. I'm not sure does the porridge respawn after Manannan eats the one with the cookie.


Ah ha! The fish makes sense!!! Remember having a rotting fish all the way through SQ6 and finally using it at the very end of the game?? It's all coming together now...

So I've received the consolation aware twice. I wonder, does that award apply if you only met a few of the criteria for another aware but fall short?

Also the Legenimor award: Got the extra item, talked to the guy in black in the burning clearing and still got zip there. I may never know what it takes. >.<!

ok, just got the Roger Wilco award and the Neat Freak award. Only ones left to get are the consulation award and the lightweight award. So 2 more play thrus and i'll have em all :) I just gotta watch falling on one and getting too many items on the other one. I'll probably have more problems with the consulation award. Its kinda hard not to get any awards.

To get the Lightweight award, I don't believe it matters how much you carry during the game, but rather how much you hold at the end. Personally, I was only holding the green orb and an eagle feather when I reached the end.

So what did you need for the Neat Freak? What spot did you miss cleaning?

i don't think it was a spot i missed. it might be the amount of times you clean plus all the wizards stuff closed. I just didn't sleep any to speed up time i just kept cleaning. I also kept cleaning while Mannanan was away or sleeping.

Just Got the Consulation Award :) So i have them all now. :hat

How does one get Legenimor?

I know who he is, I just don't know how to get the award.
I've both obtained the Item and left it where it was.

I'm thinking that to get the Legenimor award you must get the item, talk to the Father, and ask the Oracle about 'oracle' and 'morgelein'. You get these options after the first run of questions about your name, family, sister, etc.. You have to click the talk icon on the Oracle again before she disappears.

There's a few different things, you have to have the item on you, have gotten the letter from the desk, and talked to the man in the clearing before the castle. I'm not sure if the after talk with the oracle is needed or not, but i do that anyway. She has 2 things to say while she's fading out.

oh. I didn't think about that.

I found the extra Oracle dialogue after Erpy was talking about 'Enry the 'Ermit and said she has missable stuff.

Congrats, Billetwound. I don't know if you're the first, but I guess you might be the official first :)

I'm still not sure about the sloth award. Is it received for not doing any house chores for the wizard?

I think so. That's the strategy I used, and I got it.

yeah its not doing any chores, i got it when i was going for the Blue Hedgehog award. because feeding him is a chore and feeding the chickens is a chore, so you are either gonna get punished your 3 times which gets you the Problem Child Award(which you will for the 1st one theres no escaping that), or you have to have the cookie ready in the first time you feed Mannanan. And also you can't make the understanding animals spell cause you won't get the chicken feather.

Actually, I got the Sloth award even though I fed Mannanan.
