Dont damage the box. Keep it one piece. I assure.. Its not "just" the box.
I would show the box image to people and ask do you know what this is? As said one guy "got it" in office.
...of course. The question mark on BlueMage's box looks similar to J.J. Abrams' mystery box, maybe mine looks similar to a real-world boxOriginally Posted by ANBA
Anyway, here's the main attraction of the box for everyone to look at. I'll see if I can dig up any other information about it.

OK, so here is a different angle on the second box (FlipTaco's one).
If you look at Blue's box, the clue was the question mark and then inside was books about magic. The magic was inside the box which lead to the discovery of the Tannens mystery magic box.
So the stuff inside was not directly related to the clue, only hints to figure out what the actual box was.
Inside the other box was the panorama. This panorama has lead us to jack the ripper... Now here is the funny part about this suggestion. What if this was a clue about the box itself... What if the clue is 'Jack in the box', the old kids toy???
I know I laughed when i first thought of this, so just sharing in case anyone can turn that into a clue, but there you go...

Every time I check back in on this thread it feels like some major breakthrough is about to be made.
Can't tell you guys how much I respect the dedication and tenacity ( maybe prerequisite qualities in the serious Trials rider ) being shown in this mission.
Wonder if Anba'd like to give us a little insight to how frustrating it must be to create, keep secret and watch as folks attempt to unravel this monster riddle.
I could start a riddle about nacho cheese and make it hard to figure out. My problem would be containing my manic laughter as I watched people fail repeatedly.
Problem is each major breakthrough is only leading to more questions.Originally Posted by JoeRegular
But thanks to you and everyone checking in here and wishing us well. This is by far the most mind bending thing I've ever been involved in so it's been great to have a small but very helpful team working on this. We will get to the bottom of this but I suspect it will take more than 2 years.
We should try to get this finished by August.
Many sleepless nights and many google searches while I'm supposed to be working.
But yeah. Thanks again.
We've been trying to get this for a while. I've been out of the loop for a bit but will be reading the wiki again and trying to see what (if anything) is missing.
There's still some stuff missing:
-Whats the dotted image shown above 'De Divina Proportione'? (from speedtrap and epic jumps)
-Whats the dotted image (Binary code) underneath the Fibonacci sequence? (from condemned complex)
-What do the Da Vinci Notebooks and de golden record plate have in common?
-Is the christmas scene from Attica Dominatus relevant? Maybe there is a pattern in the treebulbs and buttons on the snowman?
We'll get there eventually, lets just remember that a blocked path may also offer guidance![]()
