Imagine a CP or KOTH map set in an immense warehouse, filled with cardboard boxes. Cardboard boxes on shelves. Cardboard boxes on the ground. Cardboard boxes on forklifts. Everywhere you look, a cardboard box. Box spies could sneak around and actually hide pretty well.
This might also be fun for some kind of custom game mode, where invisibility/disguise is disabled, and spies can only use boxes to hide. Hide and seek?
English is not my first language so there may be spelling and grammar mistakes. Sorry in advance. I have posted this in other forums on Reddit in the past but it is a completely true story that I still to this day wonder how it happened. Maybe you could help me with this strange and pretty creepy experience. And it might be a bit long but I’ll try my best to keep it short.
Back in 2005 me and my boyfriend lived in an old and very small studio apartment on the top floor. When you stepped into the hallway you could see straight in to the living room which also served as bedroom due to the lack of space. My boyfriend was very into making his own electronic music and bought all these gadgets and electronic instruments that he played around with.
One time he had bought a big synthesizer that came in a long cardboard box. I remember that it was really elongated and narrow on the sides. Probably about 150 centimeters long from what I recall. After unpacking the instrument he put the cardboard box underneath the bed to store it there. The next morning we went to work as usual. We worked at the same office and our desks was almost next to one other. We finished the work day and headed home. I went up the apartment to change clothes and my boyfriend waited in the car since we were going out for dinner. I came up to our apartment, got my keys and unlocked our door. I stepped in to the hallway but stopped immediately in my tracks as I looked into the living room / bed room. (The hair on my arms and neck were standing up from what I saw next). The long cardboard box for the synthesizer were standing straight up on its short side perfectly centered on the top of our bed.
I backed the hell out of there and called my boyfriend up since I was so freaked out about it. He looked genuinely shocked about it too.
How in the world did the box go from laying underneath our bed to standing on top of it? We tried to recreate it after taking it down but it didn’t stand due to a messy bed with clothes all over and pillows etc.
We had one set of keys and I saw my boyfriend at the office all day that same day. This was not a prank from his side, of that I’m certain. The apartment was owned by us so no landlord or something like that had any spare keys either.
The box was still under the bed as we left the apartment in the morning and I was the one locking the door. I had the keys with me the entire day.
Does anyone have a suggestion of how this might have happened? Thi

I’m trying to craft something for Marty and need one more cardboard box. Let me know what you want for it!
It's such a well made piece of cardboard that I'll actually keep it instead of buying a special case. As strange as it sounds.
