Yeh everyone is having that problem... apparently the site is down but it has been for a while now. So its back to do finding your constellation the hard way. Use the Map on Boomspeed Linds. But hte farmer guide on boomspeed map is up... so drag the outline around till you find your stars than hold your mouse over the start to get your coords you need to look through your telescope with.

yeah, i just went to ye old star mapper or whatever it was and manually matched up the drop and drag constellations to find my stars, was a pain but i can imagine what it would be like without that drop and drag thing to help out didn't take me too long and I finally finished it, so I'm now completely caught up (of course now that i said that, something else's going to happen)

I'm caught up, too. It took me a while to find the Farmer, but if you just move in rows back and forth slowly across the boomspeed map, it's not too hard. How many more of the constellations are there going to be?

How many more of the constellations are there going to be? my guess is there will be one constellation for each of the 12 guardians, which to me is a lot and of course the more you find, the more your telescope is going to show and the harder it will be to find the rest, but this site sure does make it a whole lot easier i'm thankful for it

Acctually I don't think there will be 12. Everytime we visit the janitor he gives us "hints" as to what is going to be next. This time after finding the 4th he said "So what are you getting up to in the observatory anyways?" Plus everytime we find a constellation you will notice the Dark Faeries fire in her hands growing bigger. And whenever we find a constellation and go back to the Astonomy club the president always seems more and more choked at us for finding another constellation. I think we may get kicked out and maybe join another club.... But i hope not cuase this plot is good... it is just taking a LONG time!

The Dancer Constellation
Below are the basic steps to find the Dancer Constellation. I don't have the pics and everything though...sorry.
1.Go to the Archives. 2.There is a notice on the board with a DiscoBall image on it. (NOTE: This particular notice is covering the Alchemy notice. Once you're done, the DiscoBall notice will dissapear as the Archivist has the club removed) Click on the notice. There are glowing orbs on the wall behind the Quiggle. On the top right hand side you'll find a set that are clickable. Click one... 3. Find your constellation. Go to Sasha, the Dancer statue. Go back to talk to the janitor, Astronomy members and Archivist.

I went to the archivist and he said he was gonna get rid of those hooligans while I went to find the constellation, went to speak with the janitor and here's what he had to say!
The janitor shouts, "My favorite underground dance club got closed down by that stinkin' Archivist! GRAARGH, THAT MAKES ME SO ANGRY!!!" He hurls his mop to the floor and stamps his feet.
lol whoops!
and here's what the archivist had to say after finding the constellation The archivist says, "There, those dancing ruffians have been taken care of. By sheer coincidence, the leader of their little gang looks just like the nice boy who runs all those clubs here in the Archives." He shakes his head. "Kids these days."
He claps his hands. "Anyway! On to business. I see you've found a fifth constellation: Sasha, the Dancer. And of course another chapter has appeared in the Book of Ages. We're drawing ever closer to completing that book." He shuffles some papers on his desk. "And on that note, it seems that there are no history books to be found within Altador. Not a single one! And what's worse -- nobody can seem to remember any of Altador's history. Not even me!" He shudders. "So much knowledge, stolen away somehow. We must find out who is responsible and stop them! Altador's knowledge must be restored!"

Well, it's out! You should go to The Docks. These docks are the basis of Altador's mighty shipping industry.There, you should click on one of the waves on the right hand side. The spray on the waves seems to have formed itself into an unlikely pattern...You should then get your coordinates, find your points on a star chart and then find them on your telescope! The constellation looks like this: After you have found your constellation, you should go to the Astronomy Club. There, the Wocky says "We just wanted to say that we appreciate all the great work you're doing for the Astronomy Club. Finding those constellations has really made everyone impressed with us! So, because of that, we got together -- except for Mr. Pouty over there --" She glares at the club president. "--and got you this!"Broken Astrolabe "The Wocky continues, "Sorry it's broken, but we don't have a lot of money. In fact, we found it in the storage closet here... But it's still a cool little item, isn't it?"" You should then head to the Toy Repair Shop and fix your astrolabe. Shiny Astrolabe You can then head to the Lenny Archivist and read the long speech he gives you. You can also head to the Janitor and read this. "The janitor says, "Ah, you lit up the gems above Marak, the Wave. It's so soothing going down to the seaside and watching the ocean. Just the thing I need when I descend into uncontrollable rage.""You should now be updated on the plot!

ah, i'm 2 constellations behind now, oh well, i'll have to work on it later cuz i just don't feel like it now i'm getting so lazy well, i guess i shouldn't say that i'm too lazy, i just finished it all... and for everyone's info: when you're hunting for your constellations through boomspeed's map and you're using the drop and drag constellations to match them up to your stars, i have noticed that every single constellation you will look for uses at least one star that's either red, purple, blue, or yellow so that certainly narrows it down when you're hunting

It does TNT made it so the starts stand out. For the Dancer constellation my top three stars were red and I noticed them right away... The Wave on the other hand I had some difficulties and found someone on the boards to help me... I was totally in the wrong area:P

I know! I just eliminated all the small white ones, and it was much easier.

lol. If anyone could tell me where the constellation coordinate finder is, that'd be great.

This is the site that kristin posted...it automatically finds your constellation coords for you. Unfortunately though, right now it doesn't work. ricall.freehostia.com/findconst.php?finddata=trueYou may want to visit the boomspeed website, click on the constellation guide that you need, and manually find your constellation. www.boomspeed.com/zaniam/theSky.htmlOr ask for help on the altador plot board..there's always someone there willing to help. Thanks for the updates and further tips, everyone! Sheesh, I miss a few days and happen to miss 3 new constellations right along with it! I got caught up, and thanks to lindsey's colored star tip, I actually found one myself! I actually found the dancer and wave manually, using boomspeed, but I got help with the farmer.
