Won $1million! Need help! Giving back $250k to the ESO community

GC8V · February 2016

I just got a email from the vice president of Zenimax, saying I won the $1million give away event. It's extremely convincing, I think it's legit.

Having a little problem with the skill testing question though. Any help? Will give away $250k of the prize to the person that help me solve the puzzle.

Did you really win it.

Imagine yourself outside the steel reinforced cube, same way you imagined yourself inside the cube.

I'll admit this is a pretty creative way of finding out the answer to the extra credit question on your take-home test.

I'm not sure anyone leading ZOS would use a word like "swagtitude"....

Nooo...you're the only person who realised.

If this was another forum I visit about 1/2 this thread would be people saying "But he has a screenshot! You can't fake a screenshot!". It's become a running joke since someone used that as a genuine argument.

Plus there's the "totally not a gold seller" grammar: 'we are Zenimax has noticed that you login during the one million reason(s) to play event'.

But really the deciding fact is that, as another poster pointed out, the email address ends in .legit. You don't do that unless your email really is genuinely legit, so therefore it must be.

how you can fake a screenshot? its seems real

"Do not try and leave the cube, that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth...there is no cube. Then you will see it is not the cube that has you trapped, it is only yourself."

Or just declare yourself as being "outside" - then all around that cube will be inside and you escaped the cube.

This one believes she would probably just steal the cube then all would be well.

I'm not splitting my imaginary 250k with you, it's all mine for being first!

Since the riddle has been solved, and the imaginary money successfully deposited in Babylon's imaginary offshore account, we're going to go ahead and sink this thread.
