@Sir:You are absolutely wrong. Frozt said the same answer, and I said wrong. I can argue, but that would give away the answer As for your riddle, you can't find out. It's the wrong answer, but it's all I got.



vezha -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/15/2009 22:20:42)

Tall I am young, short I am old, wind be my foe. What am I?

spoiler:

A candle



Frozt -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/15/2009 22:21:45)

@Reaper: Yea, figured as much... Although i can say that the possibility of two of the women getting the right umbrella=the possibility of all of the women getting the right umbrella... It's a simple mathematical question... Although at the moment i'm trying to figure out the different outcomes...



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/15/2009 22:33:21)

@Vezha: a candle.

@Frozt:I said you don't need a calculator for this.



BladeSlayer -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/15/2009 23:00:07)

Reaper, It is zero percent simple logic states that, if you believe otherwise you are wrong.



PieLover31416 -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/15/2009 23:05:30)

@Vezha: Lol, that was an obvious one:

spoiler:

A candle.


Cool; now the Riddles have their own thread. :)



Pizzaboi -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 0:26:19)

Dorigo can we leave a lightswitch on when we go into the room?



Sunkern -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 6:44:17)

You are stuck in a room. With nothing at all. No furniture, No objects, Nothing. Its only you and a piece of paper.

How do you get out?

spoiler:

Walk out.



Sir Dorigo III -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 8:39:16)

@pizzaboi Yes you can.

@ sunkern.is it this:?
spoiler:

rip the paper in half to make 2 halfs. put the 2 halfs together to make a hole. (whole). climb out



Sunkern -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 8:56:40)

Incorrect. I'm looking for another answer.



Sir Dorigo III -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 9:58:41)

too bad.. i thot mine was pretty good... ill keep workkin on it



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 11:23:35)

@Doringo:Actually, one of your various guesses was correct. 0 is not the answer. And it' s not a decimal. That's a lot of hints, so guess it.

@sunkern: You walk out.[:D]



Sir Dorigo III -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 11:31:33)

wait. did the owners place the umbrellas there? or where they at a store? cuz if so.... 100% they just bought them so they are all right.



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 12:30:48)

No,the owners put them there. Hint:You're getting warmer....



Frozt -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 14:32:18)

@Reaper: Who said i need a calculator? Math is'nt hard... It might be frustatring sometimes but it's not hard...
And normally it would be 66,6%, which is 2 out of 3, although in this case that would make it 100%... But that's not the case here, because there is more than one outcome to it... Like W1 taking W2's umbrella, W2 taking W3's umbrella and W3 taking W1's umbrella... And so on...

Although i'd have to guess that there are only 5 different possibilities (might be 9 though), which makes it a little easier...
And assuming that all the women will be leaving WITH an umbrella the possibility of two out of the three walking of with their umbrella will still equal the possibility of them all walking of with their own umbrella... And that's a fact...

But i have to ask: Do all the women walk off with an umbrella?



Pizzaboi -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 15:33:16)

@ Dorigo

spoiler:

leave a lightswitch on for about an hour,then turn it off.then turn on the second one and leave that on.When you enter the room the one with the light on is the 2nd lightswitch,and the one that hot is the 1st one,and the one thats not on is the last switch.


Did i get it rite?


@reaper,are the owners related somehow?



Poetic Melody -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 16:41:10)

@Sunkern,
spoiler:

Stop imagining?



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 16:45:03)

@Frozt:They all leave with an umbrella.

@Pizzaboi:No. The riddle doesn't say they are.



Frozt -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 17:01:17)

Then i guess 20% is somewhat acurate...
Perhaps slightly more...



Sunkern -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 17:14:50)

Actually, Reaper is correct.



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 17:19:04)

What? I'm correct? About your riddle? Wow, that was a shot in the dark...



Sunkern -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 17:31:44)

Yup, a shot in the dark. *virtual waffle*



Reaper Sigma -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 18:44:55)

*eats virtual waffle* Another riddle:

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down

Readers of LOTR will know this.



Frozt -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 19:02:34)

@Reaper: Is'nt that time?



Sir Dorigo III -> RE: The Official Riddle Thread (7/16/2009 19:17:47)

and reaper... time

for your first riddle reaper. 50%
