Son of a *****. I'm not gonna get that lever, am I? Marshy and I need to play Emperor's New Groove and walk down this hole.

Consider the implication of the distance between the holes and the screen being in imperial units but the size of the holes themselves being in metric units
also, find a table to flip over

For some you reason you get a sense that the distance doesn't mean a whole lot and is completely arbitrary
Okay, I've given up on it being a Fibonacci.
Let's drop X1 and JTB into the two holes at the same time. I want to see if they ever collide, knocking the two of them into the same area or if they continue to show up again at the same time. Gives me a better idea of the route things are falling in in relation to the other.

Then again when the guys started falling/flying they went round in a loop.wish Soup good luck
I was just thinking, the song that goes on and on, it repeats itself.
But pi, the number, it's irrational it never repeats a digit;
are you sure we're looking for a sequence that repeats, rather than just goes on forever?
I mean, they both go on forever; but only one of them repeats, so to speak
So maybe it is something that loops...
0,0,1,2... at what point does it loop?
go up to the mic and say 'give us a clue' then wink and smile and act like nothing could possibly go wrong
grab x1 and hold him over a hole
ready when you are

But they're unconscious, what're they going to tell us, even if they make it back?
This sounds like a better idea
This sounds like a better idea
good with that john
drop x1 timing it with johns jump
Conscious or unconscious probably doesn't matter. I could keep unconscious people in the loop and watch how it acts in case I need to confirm anything later. Conscious people can give me feedback. I want to know if these circuits connect at any point other than the points connected to this room. It can't be the same circuit otherwise we'd see a collision when one is going clockwise and one counter clockwise.

Nah, I think it's just one circuit that goes round in a loop, you can go round either way, and no-one happened to collide.
As I said before, it may be magic.

I don't believe in magic. If that's the only explanation, then we've got no hint.
Godspeed John.

Seriously, this is a one meter tube that had FOUR bodies in it and there was no collisions? Don't buy it.

I haveth returned from a random power surge in the area.
Maybe the 2 represents objects or things in the room? For example, there are two seemingly identical holes (with the exception of the sounds inside of them.)

Also contemplating trying a new number, specifically relating to the units provided by 12/9990.
The problem with that is that it is a repeating decimal based on 12/999 based solely to be our solution. That zero at the end causes an extra zero at the beginning.
I'm currently wrapping my head around the routes these circuits have to take.

I'm goin' for it!
Drop penny in hole. Test reflexes by attempting to catch it as it comes around. Repeat out of boredom.
They have to fall like one of these, correct?
[4 2][2 4]
[1 3][3 1]

Meh, it's 1 metre radius, so it's 3.141 square metres of space. Plus at the speed you'd be travelling I wouldn't really want to hit anyone. But realism, meh.
Anyhow, I need to be going. Fingers crossed we get another clue somehow. GL everyone

I was actually thinking the shape was sort of like an 8.

I have more than one penny. Im not poor.

Oh yes, one important detail that we didn't mention. We could hear the voices above us, below us, and right next to us, but never all at the same time of course.
The order was:
Below, Next, and then Above.

Might not help, but:
How many lights are in the room?

Thinking in 3D is hard. It's not one 8, it's two, but it's better to break it into curves. One loops around from 1 to 2 and then from 3 to 4. And they do it on either side of the room we are standing in. 1 to 2 loops on the north side and 3 to 4 loops on the south side.
The second one loops starting from 3 to 4 (this time the pipe is on the north side), and then from 1 to 2 (south side pipe). They would only connect at the entrances and they would be able to hear as they got near each other. It is one circuit, but it's got two separate ways to get from one point to the other?
I'm posting this to show my thought process, but it isn't right. I'm trying to figure out how one group can go clockwise and one counter clockwise.
For one to go opposite the other direction, you would have to be flying UP instead of falling down. I'm unsure how they've been traveling and I need to sleep rather than examine it. If someone can give me a good idea of how people have been reemerging, I'll keep working tonight, if not, I'm leaving until at least Sunday night.
Those voices probably never moved, it was just you. I can isolate that location if I know the path you traveled.

To paraphrase, "the yelling got closer and closer as you continue to fall, and eventually the yelling becomes so loud that it seems as if the source of the yelling is right next to you. The moment is very brief and the yelling voices sound like they passed you and are now above you. The sounds become ever more distant as you continue to fall."
Marshy and Bardull's route is highlighted in example one. Soup and X1 in example two.

That would be Soup yelling as he passed you. So there are two different tubes that travel very close to each other (same side of the room). There's two circuits that run in a circle. The two circuits form an X above the ceiling, under the floor, and on either side of the room. This leaves opposite surfaces of our rooms cube that are not part of this route.
Somehow the circuits change on a time corresponding with which Group is falling. Hell, they could change whenever someone enters it and there would never be an issue. The circuits switching, however, I don't think is our clue. It's something in the loop.
Nabe. I see you thinking, I really do think you're intelligent. Gova's penny for your thoughts? Zen got any ideas either, I'm about to hit a wall, but that might just be because it's late and my mind is running in circles.
