Absolutely fucking insane riddle for Trials Evolution nearly solved
84 replies, posted
It will contain a plastic model of the Trials motorbike. The cheap kind. That's mostly broken due to 100 fucking years of waiting.
I'll still be around, the mortals are very obedient at sacrificing virgins to me. Where the hell do they find so many, and why are they all guys now?
I don't really understand the 2113 thing, what's stopping people from unlocking the box with their keys now?
What if some war happens and Paris gets bombed to kingdom come?
Will people be climbing through the rubble in antiradiation suits, trying to find the spot where the Eiffeltower once stood?
A hundred years is such a ridiculous amount of time.

Because it's not there?
It said it in the article that they have a bunch of failsafes to ensure that in the year 2113, the box will be placed there.

This is so much work for something so relatively little.
100 years killed the hype instead of enhancing it, most of us will be dead then. Unless there is a 1 year old shitposting in our ranks.
Also where the hell did a small motorbike game get the money to do this shit? And who let them dig underneath the eiffel tower? There better be a cold fusion reactor or a giant secret alien vault or else its a complete failure. Cant imagine the prize thats gonna warrant a century old riddle.
14 years killed any hyped Duke Nukem Forever had and people are already sick of Half-Life 3 jokes just 8 years after the last game, what makes you think anyone is going to give a shit about this in 100 years?

Maybe nobody will give a shit in 100 years, except the key owners, who will def want to use an antique item, that has been passed in their family. Wouldn't you want to make use of that key if you owned it?
It's easy to say "100 years is a good idea" when you already know the end of the riddle. To those who have worked so hard, this seems like a pretty big slap in the face. It's bad to have a shitty ending to a riddle, but it's significantly worse altogether to know that you will never, could never, know the end.
what if we already have moved on to another planet in 2113
[QUOTE=Terabytez;47951286]what if this is an elaborate promo/arg for a new game they're making that's set in 2113[/QUOTE]
God I hope that's actually it. this is just so lame
Honestly the 100 years thing makes sense with the clues, especially about time and how we only notice it because things change around us.
Maybe it's a post-apocalyptic survival kit for the remaining 10 percent of mankind that didn't perish during the nuclear winter
What's stopping any old sod from grabbing a lock pick and opening the box without a key?

The box not being there?
For the nth time, they won't bring the box out until 2113, it's not like they have the box already there and hope it will stay in place for 100 years undisturbed.
So... My guess for what's in the box? An Edison tube that plays the national anthem of France. Because apparently that turns the Eiffel Tower into a rocket launchpad.
idea: remember the really rare and exclusive australium wrenches in TF2 and how the owners trashed them for charity?
do the same thing to the keys with this:

don't play by their rules if they are not going to be fair about them
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;47948885]You'd be pretty surprised. The people who own the keys will remember this shit for a long time, and pass it down to their children, who will see it as something to remind them of their parent, who at this point will have passed away.[/QUOTE]
or they get killed by some unfortunate accident and their key is lost for good, life has a way of doing that
[QUOTE=Jamsponge;47948882]Kind of sucks that none of us will be alive to see this, though.

If any FPers survive, keep us updated.[/QUOTE]
You can't keep dead people updated.
[QUOTE=TheHydra;47953214]why are the creators of this bike game so fucking pretentious[/QUOTE]
It's an ARG a lot of them are pretentious but it's so so fun.
These kinds of mysteries only work if the person behind them is already dead.
