![]() Numbers on the choices matter and solutions can vary depending on them.
In our particular case, there's one solution |

There are two poles, each 50 feet high. A 60-foot-long rope of uniform density is strung between the tops of each. The rope dips to a height of 20 feet at its lowest point. Find the distance between the two poles. |

![]() i was told this back in highschool, though i've changed it a bit.
Code:
you are stuck in a room. this room has a door, and a transparent floating screen. the room is metallic. the door is metallic. the screen is intangible and unbreakable.. the knob is metallic, and has no significant features other than an engraving which signifies the direction in which the knob is to be turned. the hinges which the door turns upon, is on the other side, indicating the door is turned away from you. you are given a lighter. this lighter is unbreakable, and immovable apart from its intended function: to light. you are given four pieces of string. the pieces of string non-uniformly burn for 30 minutes each. you are given a 5x5 cm piece of cloth. the cloth is neatly folded and can fit in between the cracks of the door you are given a pencil. it is sharpened and #2. the floating screen indicates: "the door will only open after precisely 45 minutes of time elapses, no sooner, no more - otherwise you are electrocuted upon twisting the knob. your body can only handle two electrocutions before dying. if you cannot exit within 2 hours you will be killed." it then counts down: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, GO. how do you get out?

![]() Reincarnate's riddle is still boggling my mind. @Zapmeister: I couldn't solve the puzzle and this post was just more for laughs than for solutions. When I solved for all the potential numbers, there was only one spot (6th row, 8th column) that had 2 possible numbers. All the rest were 3+ so I gave up lol Last edited by Evnoir; 04-13-2014 at 07:29 PM.. |

I love how you strung all 3 solutions together like that.
The Ironman Triathlon. Three legs (swimming, biking, running); two I's; sees very far (over 100 miles!); always full (of participants)...but the last line is stumping me. |

did you actually spot the clever way to do it or did you cheat
because i'm pretty sure this isn't brute-forceable with pencil and paper within a reasonable length of time :P

![]() Here's a puzzle from one of my favourite puzzle books:
========================= A few years ago, I did an experiment on four men in a room. Each men are presented four cabinets containing there drawers each. They are told that in each drawer there is either an apple, or an orange. The men are also told that one cabinet contained three apples, one contained three oranges, one contained two apples and an orange, the final contained an apple and two oranges. Four labels labelled AAA, OOO, AAO and AOO (for Apple and Orange respectively) are placed on the four different cabinets. The men are told that each cabinet's label are wrong. The men are assigned a cabinet each, and each man cannot see the other men's labels. The men then can open two drawers from his cabinet and try to guess the content of the third drawer. I couldn't remember exactly the contents of each drawer, as my assistant was the one who prepared them. So I challenged myself to guess the contents based on what the men said. The first man opens two drawers and says "I see two apples - and I know what's in my third drawer". The second man opens two drawers and says "I see an apple and an orange - and I know what's in my third drawer". The third man said "I see two oranges - and.." but alas, I can't remember if he said he could tell the contents of his third drawer. He did say yes or no however, and based on that I could figure out with 100% certainty the contents of all four cabinets and what labels were on them. Can you? ========================= Last edited by LongGone; 04-14-2014 at 12:31 PM.. |
