The map that we all looked at just as the team was led into the complex depicted an elevator shaft with a bright green border around its outer edges and I, too, thought that that was where we were supposed to go, if only at first (the green seemed to indicate, to me at least, to "go here" ). The only reason I decided that this wasn't the case was because the description didn't seem to indicate through any wording that we were supposed to use the elevator. But I thought everyone ought to know that there seemed to be some confusion with regard to that and I think it may have been the green border that caused this confusion.

And just for the record...
The only reason I was a smartass to Bluemojo was because my character is kind of a dick and would do something like that... make a smartass remark, that is.

Oh, I understand that. Believe me, I'm not trying to reprimand anyone. I'm just saying that the map may have caused a little bit of confusion. I think your character portrayal is spot-on, Tim.

... It was also the only double-doored enclosure on the map, and it was marked with an E ..... Did I miss something?

(Leaves, reads the fucking board and returns) Oh. Hah. Didn't even catch that. I could proffer an excuse (I was in a hurry, and posting via slow connection on a PDA with a 3-inch screen), I could excise the stupidity from my post (which would require other changes -- nah), or I could leave myself looking like a tard ... Hmmmmmm. In my defense, I'll also say that Jace kinda left us hanging by the elevator without any prompting.
Uh ... so there. Jet lag and caffeine deprivation indeed. #nosmileys#nosmileys

I assume that the elevator was illuminated fluorescent green because it was a specific area that was being mentioned as part of the area description? I don't know. I'm not sure if this is possible, but perhaps in the future if there's a section where we're being led somewhere, there could be arrows to indicate a general direction of travel. Just a thought.

Or maybe I could pay more attention to the text ...
anyway ... HE SAVES! Sorta. Gotta play it through.

i agree the map was a bit confusing. i think the arrow idea is good maybe.
