Well,
you could run around and tell everyone you know.
"Hey,
Jim! My house was built in Period 6!"
Jim
will probably smile at you, and say something like "That's
nice." He's just being polite. He doesn't
care. Not really.
For
those of you who have figured out all by your lonesome
that the period number is actually a star - give
yourself a big hand of applause! You've earned it,
'cause you're right!
The
period number you have come up with is the first number
in the Time Series that you are going to write into your
up-till-now empty Flying Star map.
There
are actually three star series we need to figure out in
order to complete the creation of the Flying Star map:
The Time Series (which we will abbreviate with a "T"),
The Mountain Series ("M"), and The Facing Series ("F",
oddly enough). Each series gets put in the grid
like thus:
We
add a bunch of abbreviations.
You
don't need to copy all those abbreviations into your
grid. Instead, you'll be replacing them with numbers
(no - stars). But you see where all those
"T's" are? Those are the positions you are going
to write your Time Series into.
Let's
imagine, for a moment, that your house was built in
1989 (much like mine was, as a matter of fact!).
That is a Period 7 year.
So...
take your empty grid, and write a 7 in the "T" spot
in the center of the grid, like this:
The
Time Star goes in the center palace.
We're
almost there! The only step left to filling in
the rest of the series is learning the order in which
they are placed (you didn't think we'd make it too easy,
did you?)
