AquaMat - very different, VERY nice!  Thanks for a brief and interesting respite from real life!

Question:  how many secrets did you include in Section 9?

Hi Suz! Welcome back. Been missing you on our MMF.

Were you on schedule at saving point 8? With $ 40.000? If so, at the end of section 9 you should have $ 45.000 and exactly 100 secrets. Jubilee again!

Good section, aquaMat.
[smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Short, but interesting, and your style is all over it, which is good. I got all the money in your section, but I'm still missing $50 from Section 8.

Thanks everybody !

My idea was, after sections 7 + 8 have been rather hard, to make section 9 a little bit more "normal" again, and also to make it in tune with the original first few sections of Catacombs. That's why there are one or two references of those early sections in there.

When I play it I, too,  have the feeling that it's rather short, but it's even one room more than what the official Catacombs guidelines demand. Maybe that impression is due to the fact that it's simply easier than the latest sections before it.

BTW, while I manage to get all the money in section 9 (obviously), I do still miss several coins from the preceding sections, too.
Although I can't say exactly from which. It might go pretty far back...    :-/  :(    8-)

Anyway, have fun with Section 9 of Catacombs........

Hi Suzanne,

Freddy pretty much answered that one already. I just want to add that I have included exactly 10 secrets (which, as Freddy has pointed out correctly, adds to a nice 100) !

I just thought that might help you, in case you didn't have all 90 secrets of sections 1 - 8.

Thanks, AquaMat - I did NOT find all the previous secrets, so knowing there are 10 in Section 9 helps...

And I'm behind on points, too... one of these days, I'll start over and try to do the whole thing again, a bit more slowly and carefully, this time.

One of the designing rules is that each secret should be combined with money. At least 1 silver coin of $ 25. Thus, since each section contains exactly $ 5.000, after each section one is able to know if all secrets have been found!

Of course, Freddy !!   I should have been clever enough to realise that....  but    :'(   :(   8-)  I wasn't.....

On the other hand....although what you said is very logical, it must not always be true: Imagine you did find all secrets, but just didn't pick up some other coins that are given out visibly (= outside of secrets), you might still end up with less than 5.000 $$ !!

@ Mikee:
All new mansions are always downloadable at the SAME lists.... I'm a bit surpised that you still ask everytime when a new mansion gets released where you can find it...even after you had released 4 or 5 mansions yourself, at precisely the same lists ?!?!
Looking up "Mansions listed by DATE" is always the shortest way to find new mansions.
