    Now that the table size keeps increasing, here's a faster way to do the puzzle that requires less trial and error and moving of flowerpots:

     

    1) Check how many mDB you are away from the solution.

     

    2) Starting with the first column (I like to start from the rightmost column), move the pot all the way to the end that it is furthest from. Note the number of squares that it passes - I'll call this number "X".

     

    3) Now check how much the mDB has changed.

    a) If it has reduced by X, then your flower pot is in the right place.

    b) If it has reduced by X-1, then it needs to be moved one spot away from the end. If it has reduced by X-2, then it needs to be moved two spots away from the end - so on and so forth.

    c) On the other hand, if the number has increased by X, then this means that the original position was the correct one. If it has increased by X+1, then it needs to be moved back one square after the original position (in the other direction). If it is X+2, then move it two squares past the original position in the other direction - so on and so forth.

     

    With this method, you only need a maximum of two moves per column to place each flowerpot in the correct spot. You do need to pay a bit more attention (and do some basic arithmetic) compared to the trial and error method though.

    Okay, so now we should probably—whoa, you don't look so good. Are you all right?
     
    I knew they would extend the table eventually. If they extended the neopets screen resolution just for this stupid puzzle... I'll... I'll... hold on for a sec. I need to get my bag of casual threats against TNT. *reaches into the bag and picks out a folded slip of paper* Ahem.
     
    I'll tie Lawyerbot to a bolted down metal chair and ignite his collection of Usuki limited edition memorabilia with a flamethrower set on automatic.
     
    Ooh. There's some good threats in this here bag.

    Wasn't there an event sort of like this before? There were little characters that you put on a table or something and the table got bigger and bigger...

    This is probably something like that. :p To redraw the Haunted Woods or something.

     

    Well, I mean, it seems to be the key to this part of the melody, anyway. Good job. Um... *fumbles around the room*

    Here, have this. I'm sure Tippens won't mind.

    That really wouldn't be a bad thing in the least. It's been the same map with just more squeezed into it for... years now? lol.

    Not really. They've been redrawing most of the lands. Faerieland got a much needed uplift when it crashed into the ground for instance.

    Is Neovia next in line for a redraw? I still consider them relatively new. The next land that needs a redraw is Mystery Island.

    The Haunted Woods itself and the Deserted Fairgrounds. Then Mystery Island and Neopia Central.

    In my opinion, none of the lands need a re-draw. A re-draw invariably entails more flash elements and more lag.

    I meant the stuff like the daily content. New books, new food, new whatever, with little to no creativity except a snazzy new tagline in its description. I'm all FOR the redraws, I think it's a good thing, but mainly I wish TNT would deal with the current projects they have (Battledome DoN, Habi updates, freaking Neofriends bar that's in "beta", Mystery Pic reward script...) before they go do something else. A lot of the new items seem like filler items to keep people happy.
