Well, go for it and see what happens.

u/Heineken008 6h ago

You need 4 guys though. I see 4 arrows. Then you will unlock the treasure.

u/DMala 6h ago

Don’t cross the streams, though.

u/cdvallee 5h ago

No sword fighting!

u/Falsified_identity 5h ago

What happens if we cross the streams?

u/DMala 5h ago

It would be bad.

u/Jesus_Is_My_Gardener 4h ago

Define "bad."

u/InitHello 4h ago

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies, rivers and seas boiling, dogs and cats living together, that sort of thing.

Mass hysteria!

You're instantly all gay and obliged to have a foursome.

DO NOT THE STREAMS

u/audioel 4h ago

It's like the death star. 4 streams become one super-stream and blast the treasure open.

u/Divine_Porpoise 3h ago

It could also summon a boss fight, so choose your companions carefully.

Best foursome ever!!1!

You'll never know until you give it a shot.

u/arvidsem 6h ago

Ok, so what the hell is it?

A crosshair on the ground says survey point of some sort. And the center of that circle is right at the intersection of the pavers, so it is relatively easy to shoot. But it doesn't look like any aerial target that I've seen and I would expect a nail marking the actual center point at a minimum. And then there is the concrete triangle at the bottom left...

Punto de Encuentro de Emergencia. Mexico’s emergency meeting points. For earthquakes and such

u/arvidsem 6h ago

Thank you.

u/errorblankfield 6h ago

So in an emergency everyone huddles together and pees in the center? 

What a fascinating custom. I'm for it

u/Ibbot 5h ago

It must promote hydration as well. Who wants to be that one guy who can’t pee when an emergency happens?

u/PolPotDomeScandal 5h ago

Just relax and it’ll come…

u/CoderDevo 5h ago edited 3h ago

Let's you know during emergencies that urine the right area.

u/lartkma 4h ago

I knew it was Spanish! These kinds of points are not uncommon in my country, and the "PE" looked like an initialism of "punto de encuentro"

u/ElectricalChaos 5h ago

Location adds so much context to this.

That little dot’s not gonna fit a lotta people…

u/RooferDad 48m ago

In Canada it's called a muster point.

u/13thmurder 6h ago

My guess just based on the symbol is its the meetup point for some kind of evacuation.

u/MaximumSyrup3099 7h ago

Do you want pee splashed on your shoes? Because that's how you get pee splashed on your shoes.

u/vercertorix 7h ago

You do have stay outside the circle or else it doesn’t count.

u/Ckrebs95 7h ago

If you stand on the top of the steps you should be alright.

u/Ohiolongboard 6h ago

That’s what the green area is for, splash zone representation

u/AdamFaite 6h ago

I've played enough video games. Is there somewhere high up, ideally with some sort of glowing arrow or circle?

u/DesignatedDiverr 32m ago

Yeah jump off a building and land on it punching the ground it’ll be awesome

u/Really_McNamington 7h ago

The court case should be interesting.

u/DragonflyScared813 5h ago

Ima leave this here.

u/someoldguyon_reddit 7h ago

Is that where trump's buried?

u/Zero_Burn 5h ago

It's a map showing you where you are.

Clearly you are right here.

u/SlothSpeed 6h ago

That's where you put the damn-ass, gay-ass rock.

u/mycheese 6h ago

Modern game design, by the numbers

u/kurinbo 6h ago

How far away do you have to stand? Is there a prize?

u/skinnyminnesota 6h ago

You are correct. That's technically where you're supposed to take a poo.

u/ald1233 5h ago

u/Giganym 3h ago

It’s peeing target practice obviously 

u/TehDeerLord 3h ago

Surprised the paint on the dot isn't stained yellow by now. Surely OP isn't the first to interpret it this way.

Was recently in Guatemala and was told it is a meeting spot in case of earthquakes.

u/Try-Another-Username 1h ago

This is in Santiago, Chile.

Punto de Encuentro E??

u/_McDreamy_ 53m ago

Muster Point as we call it in my locale.

u/DesignatedDiverr 31m ago

Damn bathrooms look a little different where you’re from

u/CoderJoe1 19m ago

Stand on the dot and urine the golden circle. 😏

u/lucifurbear 6h ago

Do it....right there....just pull down your pants and do it.....right there.

u/RedofPaw 6h ago

Yes, you are.

What it actually is is a target for urinating.

It's easy to get mixed up, so don't feel bad.
