Maxel Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I've got one. 'A man is found dead in a locked room with no windows. Scattered around his body are fifty-two bicycles. What happened, and why was he killed?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinnerMan Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 It doesn't matter what you "think" the guards know. We don't "know" what they know. You're assuming that the guards knew who each other was. Just because the riddle tells me that one lies and ones tells the truth does not say whether they knew anything about the other. What if they made barely changed the guards five minutes ago and these two had never talked or met previously? Don't assume more information than is there.Anyway, I'll drop that, but will you admit that my solution was actually right? (Even though you said it wrong yet you proved by your very example that it worked. See comments #81 and #88.) Comment #33 is the original riddle for any wishing to judge for themselves. I think you need to take your own advice on this one... "dont assume more information than is there". Who said anything about how long the guards had been posted? What does that matter? Going off on your own little bunny trail I see.... And your solution was not right. How do I know? I asked the riddle and it wasnt the answer I was seeking. Sorry bro, this troll aint letting you over his bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Scattered 52 bicycles is a refererence to playing (face) cards. That's my immediate take on part of what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
