Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

My advice for the 1st one... if you can't visualize it in your head, do it out on paper. That way you can't forget anything or get confused.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

I will do what tass says. PM answers and i'll create a list of people that get it right. One correct answer is worth one point. At the end of each month i'll tally up the points and the winner will be awarded the...brain teaser of the month award!

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

People like myself, Squeek, Guido... and Bandit/Blah if they actually find this thread... will have a strong shot at getting them all correct, unless you make them harder.

But I suspect you were planning on making them harder anyway.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

Figured out #2 in a minute or so. Not sure about the 1st one though. I'm probably making much harder than what it really is.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

Oh, duh. I just got the sequence one. It's similar to one I have seen before.

PMing to Reach now that I've got both answers. =D

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

#2 is cake.

#1, I will plot out later.

EDIT: rofl #1 is cake too

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

The questions will get progressively harder during the weeks. This is a warmup week ;o hence neither of them are too hard. The sequence however, is very hard if you have not seen something similar before.

Are you also going to post how everyone is doing at the end of each week so we all know where we stand amongst everyone else?

That would be a good idea.

Lies, don't listen to him.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

Yes, I will post the standings at the end of each week.

3 teasers next week.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

I just figured them both out. #2 was really easy, since I've seen something similar in two books that I've read, and #1 wasn't really that hard, either.

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

Alright people, new rule.

If you get it wrong, you lose half the value for the question. I will pm you and tell you you are wrong, and you can try again, but you lose half the value for the question if you get it right next time. Two wrongs yield no points for the question.

And uh, be careful when typing in your answers. I do not accept answers that are close or very close...only correct answers.

Since I didn't mention this rule before though, it isn't applicable until now, so some of you are saved XD You people are rofling caking before you even check for mistakes in your answer ! XD

Re: Brain Teaser of the week!

#2 was easy, seen similar stuff before. #1 took some thought.
