What does it take to get people to win a goldbox?

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

So like, I make maps, right?  And I make videos of them, follow so far?  There are about 81 map enthusiasts in the whole of Tanki, if you believe the thread subscription count.  So yeah, my audience isn't exactly wide, deep, or far reaching, right?  But if I offer a free gold box if you can find the secret in the map, you'd figure some folks might come looking for it, right?  I mean, it is just a gold box, but hey, it's a gold box.

I offer it to the map making crowd, since they're the ones that read about and watch that sort of thing, but only two people tried, and they turned down the prize, since they needed a hint, crazy, right?

Shame too, if some folks kept trying and and found it, I'd still give it away, but, seems like no one seems to want a goldbox.  All they gotta do is watch a video

and find the secret.

Maybe someone will eventually find it AND want a goldbox.

Oh well, I guess it'll just sit there forever, no one claiming it, getting dusty like a lost pirate treasure.

 

The HINTS:

 

Hint 1:

Think trice, and when you do, think of my name.

 

Hint 2:

It's before 2:33 in the video.

There's two types of Treasure Hunters: Those who do for it for the treasure and those who do it for the thrill of the hunt. For me, it was the thrill of the hunt. I didn't need the gold box, so I left it for someone else. 

 

Okay, everyone, that Gold box is still up for grabs. One clue was given. Now go out there and claim your prize before it gets so old it looks like a lump of dusty old grey lint.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

Seriously?  You'd think SOMEONE would want a gold box.  All you gotta do is find the little secret in the map.  Seriously folks.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

No one?  No one at all wants a stinking gold box?  Come on people.  Watch a video, find the secret, message me, get a gold box.

Some... trying to snatch them when they can :)

SMH.

 

The secret in the map.  I'm talking about winning the goldbox FROM ME.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

Dude.  This is really something.

[Pride.In.Blood 629]

A mammoth's overdrive.

A mammoth's overdrive.

Um, I'm not sure what that's supposed to even mean, BUT, no, that's not it.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

OKAY

 

@u812ic has hinted to me that, well, what I REALLY need to do is, well,

 

HINT

 

and frankly, why not, a hint here and there for the folks who want a goldbox.

 

Thus, in the title post, I will begin offering up clues.  Today has the first clue listed.

 

Good luck.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

Dropped another hint today.

[u812ic 1,629]

What!?! No takers yet? Come on people, it isn't that difficult, really. Look at the hints. You guys will battle to the death for a gold box. No death here, just watch a video a few times, that's all. This is not a scam.

This is funny

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

Do you have an alt my rank? I'll do it if you promise to drop to my rank,

I'm not positive, but, I thought that propass allowed me to make any invite to any battle.  I'll check and see.  This might be an oversight on my part.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

it doesn't

Wow, this is problematic.  Let me think on this.

[u812ic 1,629]

Wow, this is problematic.  Let me think on this.

In order to invite him, he has to be within your rank parameters. His rank is too low. 

 

Just like you would have to be within his rank parameters. Your rank is too high

 

Propass doesn't change this. 

 

I take it neither of you have alt accounts that can solve this dilemma. The same tank may not get invited, but it will still be the same person.

Is this a tank40 green clan?

Nope.

Come on, tell us what the "secret" exactly is, a "Secret Word" or something strange in the music?

Did you read the two hints? I'd give you one or two, but this isn't my post nor my place to do it. As for hint #1, there is something in the video that reflects his name.

I know but is it a hiden Word somewhere? Cuz I haven't seen any fog in the video after watching it twice

Look at his name....his FULL name. I saw it several times before I realized what I was looking at. No, it's not hidden, it's in plain sight, like the nose on your face (no that's not a hint). If you've watched the video once, you've seen it.

This is exactly true, u812ic is pointing you all exactly to it.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

We have a winner.  I'll be announcing them soon.

[FogOfWar_XXX 793]

We have a Winner!
