"?" can not be assigned to a declared number type with value 7.

By carefully ingesting precise quantities of Eye of God Serum, it is possible to see visions of the Gods! Visions can be deceiving, however, and it is only by comparing your visions with those of fellow spiritualists, that you can truly know the Face of God. When you are sure you have identified the spot that the God is inhabiting, consume a final dose of serum. This time, the vision will be clear.

The Test of Visions, in the Discipline of Worship is unlike anything you have yet been challenged with... those with Botanical Identification Level 3 will be able to brew Eye of God Serum, a potent concoction which, if ingested, can cause the user to have strange visions. While visions are not always accurate, there is often a kernel of truth to them. And by comparing your visions to those of local friends, you may determine one accurate picture.

Instructions

• The Test menu (Tests > Test of Visions) has an option Ingest Eye of God Serum. With Eye of God Serum in your inventory, click this to get a vision.
• Your screen will darken, before a pop-up tells you A vision may come to you within the next 20 minutes.

• After 20-22 game minutes, you will get another pop-up with a vision saying You see the face of (God) in: a (Building Type) owned by (Building Owner) built by (Builders Name) on (Game Date), resting on (terrain), (Number) feet above sea level, (Number) feet from water, (more location info).

• Some visions may miss one or two pieces of information. 10% of visions have been seen to miss the build timestamp, and about 1% of visions have been seen without builders or recipients name
• Some visions may tell you something very strange, such as ancestors built the building, or the building is a large stone.
• After ingesting serum, the same person can drink a second serum at the same spot, and receive a slightly different vision relating to the same god.
• When you think you have found the right location, ingest some serum. If it's the right location (within 2 coords of the building identified), a dialog box will tell you that you have found the face of god. (Sorry, no fanfare!) Your Test of Visions menu will tell you how many times you have located the face of god.
• A spot will become "used up" once seven people ingest serum at that location. Any further people taking the serum at the right location will get a message You, like many others, see the face of god. There is no credit for any further attempts at this location.
• After 5-10 minutes, the location of the face will be reset, and the hunt may begin again.
• Do not drink right after a face is exhausted - you will get a popup saying, "Your vision fades and your head clears."
• At any one time, there appears to be a face of god present in each quadrant of the Egyptian coordinate system, roughly divided on the zero lines. So one for northwest (-coord,+coord), one for northeast (+coord,+coord), one for southwest (-coord,-coord) and one for southeast (+coord,-coord).
• Only the first seven people to consume the serum at the right location will progress in the Test.
• Botanical Identification 3 is required to make the serum, but it is not needed to drink the Serum.

Solving the Riddle

You need to work out which parts are true and which parts are not true. After drinking the serum a half dozen times (either by yourself, or with friends) you can begin to deduce what is true and what isn't.

First off, some obvious ones to rule out. Aghor isn't a member of Green Valley Falls, so it would be unlikely he would build for them. One Crazy Lady is a private guild for Jaclyn and JM, so again it would be unlikely Vital77 would build for One Crazy Lady. In the same token, Jaclyn and vampotep don't associate with each other's guilds, so the likelihood Jaclyn would build a carpentry shop and reassign it to vampotep is unlikely.

The Carpentry Shop showed up in repeated visions, so did the guild One Crazy Lady, and the builder Jaclyn and the majority of visions had the timestamp of Year 1, Akhet IV-13, 10:11AM (no other time-stamp repeated itself). There happened to be a Carpentry Shop at 1498, 3370 that was built by Jaclyn, guilded to One Crazy Lady, and built at Year 1, Akhet IV-13, 10:11AM. This turned out to be the location.

Drinking the Eye of God Serum at this location then produces a success message if you are one of the first seven people to do so:

Your test menu will also show an increase of one. Do it 7 times to pass the test.
