11 mins lol oooo
Stop!! Pens down!!
Ok let me do some calculations and the write up will be here shortly. Thanks for everyones orders and helping me with my first game.
Thermal you naughty boy lol post next time...
Sorry I'm late, my order would have been
Stay put and check all doors, if william wallace is harmed when going up top door, don't look into it
Centurion1 was alone in his cold steel room.... He got up and decided that he'll check all the doors before he did anything else.... Walking over to the left door he pushed the button obviously labeled "OPEN" the door shot open like something out of StarTrek he though.....
Looking through he saw a room that looked exactly the same as the one he was in complete with the four doors... Puzzled he moved back into his room... The door quick snapped shut....
He then climbed the ladder and opened the ceiling door the same as the first.... Again it revealed only another seemingly identical room before shuting by itself..... Finally he checked the right door which sadly revealed only another empty idential steel room..... Just as Centurion1 was climbing down from the right door.... The door in his floor suddenly opened....
A meek voice sounded through.... "Hello"
Centurion1 rushed over to the door as WilliamWallace pulled himself up from below.... "Hello, Im guessing your one of the guys on the intercom.... Anything interesting up here?" WilliamWallace asked....
"Nothing they all lead to identical rooms...." Centurion1 replied...
"Well Im with two other guys down there, since theres nothing interesting up here lets go back down there" With that WilliamWallace and Centurion1 climbed back down into the room that Rhawn and Thermal were in....
"Well lets have a look at these other doors" they all agreed.... Firstly they opened the left door again seeing a room identical to theres and all the rooms Centurion had seen.... They opened the right door... It was the same but just as they looked through they saw Spilt jump through the far right door.... They called out but the door closed without alerting Split....
"Well hello" a voice came from behind the group.... They turned and saw that Greyblades and Atheotoes were climbing up into their room from below....
"You wouldnt believe what we saw down there" Greyblades said as Atheotes nodded...
"What... Explain... We have to get outta here" Centurion1 pleaded (hehe)
"Well we opened both the left and right doors but they revealed only rooms exactly like this one...." Atheotos explained.
"That seems to be a reoccuring theme" Thermal put in.
"But the floor door..... We opened that... And it was pitch black.... and the wind was so strong it almost pulled us out.... But there was nothing but darkness... And that damn hum of machinery was louder.... It quickly closed and then we headed up here" Greyblades finished....
"Well we better think about this for awhile before we do anything else...." Rhawn said......
By now the effects of the drugs were wearing off and they were all thinking more clearly....
"Hey guys... Look at this" Centurion1 said pointing to the corner of the room....
"Whats that say... Is it 'N4'?"
"Yeah its 'N4' is slightly engraved into the steel" Rhawn said upon closer inspection....
"Now what the (BEEP) does that mean" Atheotes said the stress of the situation was begining to show.......
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in another one of the steel rooms, Captain C had decided to go and check out the room above them while Lord Winter looked at the others.... Captain C opened the ceiling door and looked in... The room was identical he thought so he carefully pulled himself up into the new room....
Just then the new rooms left hand door opened.... Split looked through from the other side....
"Hey down here" Captain C called out....
Split jumped down into the room.... He didnt hear the shout coming from his old room....
"Where did you come from?" Split asked.
"Down there" Captain C pointed at the now closed door.....
All of sudden with no warning a steel bar shot across the room at knee height.... It took both Split and Captain C completely by surprise as they were hit and flung into the air.... As quick as it had come it disappeared into an opening on the far wall disappearing as the opening closed.....
"Ahhhh (BEEP)...." Split moaned on the ground..... As he started to get up he noticed the engraving in the corner of the room.... 'T6'
"What the (beep) was that?" Captain C replied.... They both go to their feet.... Obviously wounded and bruised by the bar.... Blood seeping down there calfs.....
"I dont bloody know... But look at this...." Split mentioned to the engraving...
"T6? What does that mean" Captain C said looking closely at it....
"Wouldnt have a clue....." Split said as they both sat down nursing there wounds. Suddenly the black box that Split was holding burst open making him drop it.... Both of them scared at what was inside bent slowly down to look....
"A Flashlight...." Split asked in a questioning voice....
"Not just any Flashlight.... Its a black light" Captain C replied examining the Blacklight Flashlight........
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lord Winter watched Captain C disappear through the ceiling door which quickly closed behind him.... Id better check these other doors he thought to himself...
He opened the Left door which to his surprise revealed an identical room as the one he was in.... The door closed suddenly so Lord Winter climbed down...
He moved to open the Floor door and was almost sucked out as it revealed a pitch blackness with very stong winds.... Shocked he quickly closed the door....
Lastly he tried the Right door, which revealed the same pitch blackness and wind that the Floor door revealed..... It was then his mind more clear as the effects of the drugs wore off that he noticed the engraving in the corner.....
'N7' What could that mean he thought......
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lonely Seon decided he'd check the doors first like the others over the intercom had recommended him... He first checked the Floor door.... It was exactly the same he thought looking through, Ill check the others before I do anything else....
The Left door again revealed an Identical room.... However both the Ceiling door and the Right door revealed a total pitch blackness with strong winds and the hum of machinery..... The doors all closed by themselves as Seon disappointed with the beginnings of panic creeping in sat down.... It was then like the others that he noticed the engraving....
'E1' Interesting he thought.............

Centurion1, Greyblades, Atheotes, Thermal, Rhawn and WilliamWallace are in the same room. The room is otherwise empty besides the Four Doors

Lord Winter you are in the same room by yourself. The room is otherwise empty besides the Four Doors.

I knew it.
This is just like the movie cube...
All the rooms have traps, we can't escape without the cube, but I'll likely die trying to find the escape.
God :daisy: it... I knew it...
It looks as if split is the key....and the curse..... :sweatdrop: This game is freaking me out more then resident evil :juggle2:
Ideas guys? maybe we should team up? dare any of us venture into the black darkness on the floor doors? 6 of us, maybe 2 left, 1 right....1 up, 2 stay put? :dizzy2:
I will stay where I am for this phase, you guys move around D:
Stay put for now...
See what happens if it is limited to my movement or not...
Now people... This time before you go and post all your moves without thinking lol. Discuss the points in the write up.... Every word is there for a reason so work it out hehe...
Also just to let you guys know....
Current Discussion Phase Ends at 4.30pm Saturday 5 Dec My Time (GMT+12)
which means you have roughly.... 21 hours from now :)
However If I get all your orders (and you tell me you wont change) then I might do a write up before hand lol.
It looks like Seon and Captain C are in corner rooms. Seon seems to be at the top. Captain C is near us because his bottom door opened to blackness as our door did. I think the blacklight flashlight will be useful to track whether someone has been in the room before and which way they went, the oils from fingerprints on metal should show under the light.
Mini Write Up lol...
The intercoms in all the different rooms spoke.....
"Hello.... Anyone there....." Myrddraal asked through the system.... He had only just woken up and was still affected by the drugs.....
Player inserted randomly.... Myrddraal - You are alone in an empty room... There are Four Doors as per the other rooms.
Thank you very much for letting me in the game!
I mean... uh, where am I?
Will post thoughts soon. I think it might be a good idea to try to make a map of what you guys have discovered so far.
Ok, so here it is. The story so far:
https://img442.imageshack.us/img442/5397/cubemap.jpg
Well, a blacklight is a light which emits UV light (called a black light because we can't see UV light). UV light causes some materials to be fluorescent, so blacklights can be used to detect these materials easily (they shine) or to reveal hidden writing (invisible ink).
So I suggest that we try to examine as many rooms as possible under UV light, looking for hidden messages on the walls (or anything).
I think we should also try dropping a coin into the blackness, to see if we can hear it hit anything, and perhaps try shining the black light into the darkness, on the off chance there might be some fluorescent material out there that would show up.
Also it seems to me that traps hurt everybody in the room. Both Split and Captain C got hurt by the trap. So I would recommend against moving as a group. One person at a time enters each room. Wait for the doors to close, then open them again for the next person to go through.
I can't see a pattern with the letters and numbers yet. I think we should try to get the letter and number for each room.
So my orders are:
Look for a number in my room. Look through all the doors, trying to see the numbers in all my neighbouring rooms.
EDIT: I really wanted to be in this game :smile:
wow lol
Organised lol... Haha that maps more flash than the one I use haha....
Good luck guys lol Im off to bed.
[Language please - GH]
Do we have anything in our pockets? I'd like to know if I still have my wallet on me (contains coins, notes and bank cards).
I'm not too sure opening a door into the blackness to drop a coin is a good idea. I was allmost sucked out remember?
THere are traps inside this...err...box.
I think what we should do is to trigger whatever traps there are between rooms by throwing a shoe in whatever room you want to move in while still holding on to the laces, and then dragging it towards you.
And then test if the air is strangely dry. It might be triggered by electro sensitivity.
And then if all other tests come clean, we should put our hand in and then immediately pull out to see what happens.
And then put our legs in and do the same.
And then we move into the room. Now, it may not work with ladders, but you get the point.
Yes. I am assuming this is the Cube related :D
Go through the door leading downward below the room I am in.
You only have exactly what is in the intro write up.... One of you have already figured out why I put a certain thing in that write up....Quote:

Hmm. Simple white pants, t-shirts and soft soled shoes. I just did a quick read of the Cube on wikipedia. Looks like throwing shoes is one way of triggering traps before they kill us. Some rooms have electrochemical triggers. However, this game is based on the cube but the exact triggers may be different. For example, apparently prime numbers on the walls are a sign that a room is a trap. In this game we have a letter and a number. I notice that T6 (with the trap) has a T. We don't know enough to be sure if that means it's trapped but it might just be that trapped rooms have a T.
I don't think the blacklight is in Cube, so it seems there are original puzzles here.
I think that white fabric glows in UV light. Perhaps we should throw one shoe down out of the bottom and light it with the UV light, then we could watch it fall and see it if it lands on anything.
Just trying to think outside the box (geddit? geddit?)
Edit, apparently the cubes move in the film. That could account for the machinery noise. We should be able to identify boxes by the letter and number on the walls, but just in case I will:
Tear off a strip of material from my shirt and tie it to the bottom rung of the ladder
if I can...
Basically fours hours left guys....
Im a tad busy tonight so If I havent posted a write up then you can continue discussions.... But please start posting your moves in bold and clearly labled as such as I have to go out soon...
Good luck. Just so you know, Im not a mean controlling entity in this game, theres a system so anything that happens isnt because I decided it to lol. It just happened lol.
fully check for any traps at all in the top door.
Action: Check for traps on the room to my left by throwing a shoe in. Shout into it to trigger any sound sensitive trap. Check to see if the air is dry. Then put a hand in and then pull it out quickly.AND THEN GO IN. (if possible :p)
Action: same as Seon where I am.
Okay, so no one else activated any traps, but moving with the box did...
I have an idea that may help us map out, Myrddraal if you would like to give input, it is most welcome.
Okay so the box determines whether or not traps go off, or so it seems.
Perhaps we all gather in one room, and someone, holding the box, steps into the next unexplored room from their current position, if/when they are attacked, they stay there for the turn, and everyone else walks into that room, and investigates it with the UV light.
This may require the sacrifices of lives, and it may not even help us if the cube shaped rooms move around... but it could help us determine a pattern maybe...
This is all i can think of right now, going to continue to rack my brain...
Sit still with the box, make sure all the doors in the room are open...
I have ANOTHER idea, which involves throwing the box into the room intead of just a person, that may set off a trap without harming anyone...
Hmm. I'm not sure it was the box that triggered the trap, although it is interesting that Captain C was in the room before you arrived, but the trap didn't go off until you were both in the room.
Nonetheless I think that some rooms have traps in and some don't, and I reckon there's a way of working out whether a room is trapped or not, and maybe it has something to do with the letters on the wall. (Maybe the letters stand for what is in the room? N for "Nothing", T for "Trap", and E for ... "Exit"?)
I think we should all spread out, cover as much ground as possible. It seems we can all take 4 hits before we die, so we can afford to take a few risks.
I will also take all the precautions that Seon described when opening doors
EDIT:
When he says "only one of that particular one" is he referring to "The Box" we are all trapped in, or the box that was in your room. So there are other boxes to be found, that's interesting. Finding them may give us a hint as to how to get out. Then again, they could be booby traps (!).Quote:
The box you hold is not, I repeat not why the game is called "The Box" there are many other boxes around, but only one of that particular one :)
My box is unique, he said that, I believe teh quote was "No other box you find will do what this one does"
So... Be on the look out for any loose boxes you find :clown:
Hasn't your box exploded to give us the blacklight?
P.S. You sound like Gollum :smile: "My box is special, my preccccious"
