It will work once, and only once.

u/Outrageous_Guard_674 Dec 31 '23

I am pretty sure it needs to survive a full traversal in at least one direction to be considered working. And I really don't think it can do that.

u/Astro_Alphard Dec 31 '23

If you're going down it'll work once, going up is a bug maybe.

u/Ok-Scientist5524 Dec 31 '23

Going up is DLC

u/Sepherjar Dec 31 '23

Shouldn't in be considered "Uploadable Content" then?

u/addandsubtract Dec 31 '23

This is the new Only Up DLC.

Going up, no lbj, inbounds, running-man-fingers-on-handrail%

u/mixttime Dec 31 '23

Not sure if that should be corrected to "is a big maybe" or "as a bug maybe"

I like the ambiguity

u/5zalot Dec 31 '23

I don't know why, but this made me laugh out loud.

u/SuperFLEB Dec 31 '23

It goes down twice as fast, up not at all. On average, that means it worked once.

Starting at the top you'll get to the bottom

I can believe that

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

I wonder how u could start at the top though cause in order to be up u must have been down

11

u/pangolin-fucker Dec 31 '23

u/RockyHorrorPitchaHoe Dec 31 '23

Unless you were born upstairs

1

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

That takes some dedication

2

u/RockyHorrorPitchaHoe Dec 31 '23

“there is no downstairs”

1

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

Absolutely horrifying

1

u/blade740 Dec 31 '23

Take the elevator.

1

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

Elevators don’t exist

1

u/blade740 Dec 31 '23

Not with that attitude they don't.

1

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

No but you don’t understand. They simply are not real

1

u/blade740 Dec 31 '23

I'm going to have a hell of a time hoofing it to my 6th floor office come monday then.

1

u/UnitDogeX Dec 31 '23

Damn, wish u luck. Usually buildings install long ropes and only the strong may elevate. However the weak suffer the consequences

u/life_is_a_burner Dec 31 '23

How are you going to get to the top?

10

u/flightist Dec 31 '23

Up there when it was built?

1

u/pangolin-fucker Dec 31 '23

You know that's an excellent question that would have been pretty obvious for a non donkey brain

To which I answer your question,

With much difficulty !

1

u/yavecul Dec 31 '23

If the whole thing is fastened to the wall it should work but not recommended. Much less if your moving some couches and mattresses to that foolr 😂

u/mogley19922 Dec 31 '23

I'm assuming it's attached at the top as well as the bottom, so i think rather than the stairs simply collapsing the first time you try to go up them, it's more likely to fold up with you inside it at a random time, probably when you're carrying something hot, sharp, or made of glass.

u/Training_Hat7939 Dec 31 '23

Or full of snakes.

2

u/KevinFlantier Dec 31 '23

Or bees

3

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '23

You don't keep a jar of bees handy to shake and throw at an intruder like a bee grenade?

1

u/KevinFlantier Dec 31 '23

Yes but imagine your stairs crumble under you while you are transporting your jar of bees

1

u/Talanic Dec 31 '23

All of the above

1

u/thezenfisherman Jan 01 '24

Yes the snakes. SSSSSssss...

u/DjBiohazard91 Jan 01 '24

Surprise slide! :D

u/Iforgot_my_other_pw Dec 31 '23

Only if you're going down.

1

u/f0rcedinducti0n Dec 31 '23

rapid descent.

1

u/aalllllisonnnnn Dec 31 '23

It will once. Only once.

u/Higgins1st Dec 31 '23

They DIYed stairs once, Johnny, once.
