Poll: You find a mysterious floating box

[MetalMagpie]

Leave it alone. I don't generally go around randomly pressing buttons and throwing switches that I find. (Especially not in server rooms.)

 

[SlaveNumber23]

This reminds me of Cabin in the woods.. there's only one thing to do.

I...

...Use the sea conch.

I just think the box would have been cooler with a merman...


I would flick the switch, way more satisfying than pushing a button or turning a knob.

 

[RJ 17]

Sell it on eBay because it's a frickin' magical floating box.

Spoiler: But really, this is the only magical box that I'm interested in:

I am disappointed in the lack of mad science dramatic switch-throwings à la Frankenstein.

I mean I'd mess with all three eventually, but the first thing I would do is...
Throw the switch!

 

[Daverson]

Pres Butan.

Ackshully... er... Actually, I'd probably try hitting the thing with a bat or something, I mean, how would it react? Would it's altitude adjust? Would it then return to it's previous height, or would it levitate at it's new height. Would it slow down under friction or just keep going until it hits something else? Levitating stuff is so weird I'd probably be too overwhelmed by the fact it's levitating to notice it's even got switches and whatnot.

The button and the switch all have binary results...so pressing them is hugh risk.
However the knob might have multiple settings...so if something bad happens, it might be a smaller amount of bad.

My first reaction to the thread title was:

"Open that sucka up!"

But since that isn't a poll option I'm going to have to go with the button press. Seriously, who can resist a button? Even a doomsday button?

 

[monkey_man]

buttons and switches are always bad news. I'll turn the knob. perhaps it opens?
if nothing happens, I'll do the switch too. and finally the button

 

[a7xman]

step 1, cut a hole in the box.

 

[neverarine]

not many knobbers :/

 

[Carnage95]

Do an intensive study on how the box is floating, call the scientists and leave the switch, knob and the button alone.

 

[dangoball]

Does it have a question mark on it? If so I hit it with my head!

If not, eh, guess I would let someone else tinker with it first. If it blows up, at least I'll be able to enjoy the fireworks. If not I'll still witness whatever awesomeness resides in that mysterious box.

 

[Muffin Button]

Got ninja'd with the Dee Dee video, so here's Ren and Stimpy:


Though I'd probably let curiosity get the better of me. That, or whack it from below to see if coins come out, maybe a fire flower if I'm lucky.

 

[Rahath]

There will be switch flipping of the worst kind!

 

[TilMorrow]

The button, it's shiny.

Spoiler: DEM EVIL BUTTONS DER

PRESS IT! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO!

Not another Evil button spammer! I listened to the warnings so I know the consequences of such a button! You'll never get me with it! *Chalks up another day of escaping the button since it was created*

OT:

Turn the Knob.

*turns it.* Hee Hee Hee.

Hint: Everyone dies regardless of what you choose.

 

[Storm Dragon]

Since the option to use all three of the controls was not available, pressing the Big Red Button was the most appealing option.
