This is what I understood so far:

- Personal Labyrinths:
Done within 12 weeks before the (multiversal) olympic games. Helps to prepare the many worlds for the synchronization event. Minor effect on overall world count.

- Athletic Labyrinth (7-circuit labyrinth)
Done during the (multiversal) olympic games. Best done on 6 places so that coordination could be possible with at least one other world. Needed for reducing the number of worlds and to synchronize the many worlds.

- Training Labyrinths (3,5 or 7-circuit)
Only for training of the Athletic labyrinth. No synchronization at all.

- City-sized Labyrinths
For multiversal travel a real big omphalos of the size of the earth is needed with 27 knots. One knot is a city-sized labyrinth. I guess this is mainly needed to bring back our amnesiacs into their original world. Not needed to save the worlds.

Practice Labyrinths should reduce the number of worlds too if the players are precise enough about it- I mean, it should work through the effects of athletic alignment or athletic co-ordination described in chapter 16. That chapter seems to indicate that any kind of sport training would reduce the number of worlds if you were precise and deliberate about it.

Do you mean Kai is confused? He plans what he calls "Labyrinth Training Festival" at New York to decrease the number of the worlds.

I feel almost everyone is confused

In Ariadne's forum I found a thread titled "Do City Labryinths have to be run on or before 21st June?" posted by Chippy, and it's not answered. I wonder if he's still looking for the source, but just now I was looking for it, so I raise this thread.

Did Eli say this important date only in the chat with Mr.Judkins? Isn't it important?
May we make this chat IG?

And I don't think all 27cities can finish building their labyrinth by June 21st.

[mr.judkins]

I've now made that portion of my chat with Eli unquestionably IG by posting it in reply to Chippy - as I state there, he suggests that prior to the 21st is the "best time" for these "military exercises" of giant labyrinth making to occur.

I agree that it's unrealistic that they'll all be done by then. Perhaps if confirmations had come back to us earlier we would have a better jump on them by now...

[mr.judkins]

Yeah... I'm still not quite over the flu, so a little bit grumpy.

Perhaps a little irritated that we had to wait so long if there is a time constraint on us to complete these. He's a lovely man, with a wonderful voice, but he's shocking when it comes to quick replies...

Thanks a lot for your responses, mr.judkins!

I think there're some cities among 27 that don't have any plans yet.

This may be a clarification from Eli. The solstice June 21st is not a deadline, he called in the peak time.

Do we have a list of 27 cities? I tried to look for one earlier but got side tracked.

Gah! Why is it /3 now instead of /6???

Edit: oh, I just noticed the clarification that we don't have to be done city labys by the 21st...phew!
