Ah yes, the fifth cardinal direction, “abroad”.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

He either moved around in the environment or left it completely.

[-] groucho@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 7 months ago

Or he stayed perfectly still.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 23 points 7 months ago

Fwiw, it looks like that's "southwest", not "south, west". Still not narrowing it down much.

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago

Well, at least they know which z-axis he's on.

"We've knocked out a whole dimension, boys! Good work!"

Agreed. Without context, it seems like they were saying "They had a lot of options for where they could have gone, but still went the one direction they shouldn't have."

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 21 points 7 months ago

At least we know he didn't go straight west, nor straight south.

[-] TeaHands@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago

Unless "abroad" is in one or both of those directions 🤔

Reminds me of an old school text adventure.

Where do you want to go now? (N, E, S, W, U, D)

[-] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 4 points 7 months ago

Thorin sits down and starts singing about gold.

[-] Assman@sh.itjust.works 11 points 7 months ago

What about the z index? Did he go up or down?

[-] peter@feddit.uk 4 points 7 months ago

They've ruled out the possibility of him going up, but not down

[-] smb@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

maybe they really and ultimately narrowed it down to "gone".

also they ruled out:

  • up or down
  • sideways
  • back or forth in time
  • with the wind
  • hiding
  • just vanishing
  • gone for good
  • gone for a walk
  • other realities / timelines / simulations (maybe recovery from backup is still possible)

...

8-)

UPDATE-edit: damn i forgot Schroedingers quantum gone paradoxon: He decides where he was only in that very moment when they actually find him.

[-] Brickhead92@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Nobody ever goes up or down, in fact the mere idea of it is preposterous.

[-] smb@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

if police believes nobody can ever go up or down, upstairs or in the cellar would be a genious hiding place, wouldn't it?

Well superhero caves are usually below the surface so he/she has to go down there somehow

Eh, in this simulation you have to install the z-axis mod to be able to use latters and stairs, sure, i just thought everyone had it installed by now.

[-] Neon@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

Thank god he didn't go south-east.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Well at least that rules out space and the hollow earth.

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 months ago

those fall under "abroad", I would think

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 points 7 months ago

And time travel, which is handy because in that last picture they showed of him he looked like a fucked up Terminator.

[-] requiem@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

He could have fooled us all by stating exactly where he was

[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Nope that is pretty much the only thing that there are sure didn't happen
