Puzzle Box 4


Recommended Posts

Just a random thought on Box #4-Puzzle #12's answer of Gemini2...

Not that it does us any good, but it is interesting that there are four Lokis...

Maybe the answer is really Gemini2? Twins squared.

Okay, I'm tired.

Really going out on a far-fetched tangent here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Brothers

"...Seven Brothers (originally Seitsem?n veljest?) is the only novel of the Finnish author Aleksis Kivi and the first significant novel in the Finnish language. It was first published in 1870 and has been twice translated into English, first by Alex Matson and later by Richard Impola.

Seven Brothers is a tragicomic tale about seven brothers of Jukola family who end up handling their farm after their parents have died. Brothers include the strong Juhanitwo sets of twinsb>; Tuomas and Aapo, and Timo and the hunter Lauri; the would-be-preacher Simeoni and the youngest Eero..."

Way too much info on the web!

Didn't finish yet but I'll throw the idea into the open to see what do you think.

I'm working with the numbers from roamingroaming, I believe that it's another riddle and

we don't have to get crazy to draw all the lines on a map, it will be very hard to be sure

that you are drawing the lines in the correct direction.

Also the note "physical presence not required" is bugging me, plus the TANLI.

What if, we use the numbers and the directions (up, down, right , letft) to create x,y coordinates

and see what figure we draw ?

We've seen this before with the laser and with the room with a view.

This could lead to something that may be in LATIN

Any takers ?

I still believe it's a trivial answer ...

Just my humble opinion.

Could the TANLI and the lines in the pic of loki at roamingroaming have anything to do with NES as in the letters missing from TANLINES (in reference to the lines in the picture)? Hows that for a stretch?

..or perhaps just NE for north east?

Well, everyone, it's been grand. I've submitted my answer, and I fear that if I hang around in this forum much longer, I'll overthink the problem and change my answer. I wish all of you the best of luck with both the Meta Puzzle and the sweepstakes in general.

I am with you on that one. Imagine if you changed your answer to "follow" the thinking of others and found out later that your original answer was correct...

Honestly I would be happy with a Zune over having my name on a bunch of chips that nobody will really ever see.

Well, I'm sure that the message will be on a lot of internet news sites and maybe a few TV channels. So, you'd at least be internet-famous.

ok one out of the blue....

I have not tried any of the coordinates but could Iceland have anything to do with the last letter in loki... after all she mentiones that in an inanimated world things don't dissapear so easily and that could be counted for when things get frozen or stuck in ICE of snow... this i just a wildcard but who knows.. also Loki is a famouse name in the Icelandic/Norvegian mythologies......

I'm gonna repeat my own words. To be frank I don't give a squat about the prizes, but a cool laptop or some gadget

will be welcomed, my main interest is the challenge, and a great oportunity to learn from other people working in a

common project.

Guessing the answer sometimes gets the job done, as we've seen with some puzzles, but it's like buying a new

video game and the cheat code book at the same time, then where is the fun playing the game ? what's the challenge ?

Just my point of view ...

We'll know in few days which clues were real and which were dead ends, meanwhile I'll keep crunching until I'm able

to at least connect few additional dots.

Cheers

This is my first post and I hope you think I'm on the right track:

/RoamingRoaming & TANIL

-------------------------------

TANIL is an anagram for LATIN, which of course was from ancient Rome... "rome"ing "rome"ing sound familiar?

Thus I used Rome for my starting point.

5874.61 right

1049.62 up

1161.79 right

153.48 down

543.55 left

652.2 down

4909.96 left

548.42 down

========

reduced is

1582.89 east

304.48 south

check out my map from live.com maps with the distances.

What is 1582.89 miles east and 304.48 miles south of rome?

Where did you get that last "down"?

From the 4 Loki's video... the right most one says "LOKI was a puppet we all made *glasses* it was time for us to put her DOWN"

[0:55 - 0:59]

From the 4 Loki's video... the right most one says "LOKI was a puppet we all made *glasses* it was time for us to put her DOWN"

[0:55 - 0:59]

So then the graphic in the "/roamingroaming" is not indicating the last (right) but just clueing you in to go look for those spots in the video.

I tried that and still doesn't highlight the white box. I can clearly see the white box above the entry field in the Gravity Lock, but it is not clickable---not even using the "Tab" method. Also, the box doesn't how up until I first click "restart"---then the white box shows up, ..but again, unclickable.

Just curious...you probably already know this, but have you made sure that you are properly logged in? Sometimes during the earlier boxes, I had to re-login after clicking on the open box.

So then the graphic in the "/roamingroaming" is not indicating the last (right) but just clueing you in to go look for those spots in the video.

Yes... if you sequence all the videos you've seen so far... everytime Loki will grab her glasses and say something clever that says "it's UP to you" or "don't let me DOWN"... just getting the videos in sequence is the trick.

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
