[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by AJ2K1 4 Life [/i] [B] [b]Ah...the famous GRY riddle...plenty of answers to this one...but the Riddler never said the answer...just the riddle... 1. GRY is a word,...but not in everyday use. 2. 'What' is the third word 3. The word is 'something', no referral to the GRY word 4. In another reworded version..the answer was 'say' because GRY = 'G' [u]or[/u] 'Y', and the whole riddle uses the word 'say' three times in it.... Plenty more answers, but none come to mind...anyhoo, must go down, eat and go sleep...12:38AM... *yawn*[/b] [/B][/QUOTE][FONT=century gothic]Heh...actually, there is an answer that fits quite easily, and it's mind-bogglingly simple once you know it. [Anyone else used to have those math problems like "Sally is six years old. Her favorite color is pink. She had three cookies, and her mom gave her two more. How many cookies does she have now?" I used to get them all the time, and you were supposed to cross out the unneeded information.][/FONT]

[FONT=century gothic]Gah... not torch as in flashlight...... torch as in...well...something else. That does need to be lit. But you're wrong anyway. WTG, Saiyadude. [COLOR=indigo]Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.[/COLOR] [/FONT]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by NeoCactuar [/i] [B]Here it is: There is a man looking for his friend, he walks into a town and in this town there is a line down the middle. On one side of the line lives the 'Truth tellers' on the other side lives the 'Liars'. The man has to find his friend who lives on the 'Truth tellers' side, but in the daytime the people are all mixed up, they are on either side. He can ask one person, one question to find out what the Truth telling side is. But he must find his friend before nightfall. What question does he ask? [/B][/QUOTE][FONT=century gothic]Okay, I've been chewing on this ever since you first posted it up.....and I think I've got it pretty well figured out. [FINALLY!] It can't be a yes/no answer. Especially if you can only ask one question. If you asked two, you could ask something like, "Is water wet?" Then, by their answer, you would know if they were a liar or not, and you could then proceed to ask them which side of the village you were on. But you can only ask one question, so that won't work. Asking them if they were a liar or not would do no good whatsoever, since everyone's mixed up during the day. You cannot just ask which side of the village you are on. It wouldn't work. You would get a different answer if you asked a truth-teller or a liar, and you wouldn't be able to tell. EX: Is this the liar side? [answer=yes] Liar: No. Truth-teller: Yes EX: Is this the liar side? [answer=no] Liar: Yes. Truth-teller: No. And you wouldn't know if the person you asked was a liar or not. So what you need to do is ask a question where it wouldn't matter, where they would both have the same answer. How is [i]that[/i] possible? Well, again, it wouldn't just be a yes/no question. You would have to word it kinda funny. Not ask them what [i]they[/i] think, but what the [i]other[/i] party in the village would say. For sake of demonstration, you are on the Liar side of the village. Suppose you went up to someone who was a liar, and asked: if I asked the people who live on the other side of the village from you which side of the village this is, what would they say? Well, the people living on the other side of the village would be truthtellers, and they would say, "This is the lying side of the village." Thus, the person you asked, who always lies, would tell you, "They would say this is the Truth-telling side of the village." Now, what would happen if you asked a truthteller the same question? [if I asked the people who live on the other side of the village from you which side of the village this is, what would they say?] Well, you're still on the liar side. The people living on the opposite side as the truth-tellers would be the liars. They would say you were on the truth-telling side. The truth-teller you asked would have to be honest about this, and say so. So, if you were on the Liar Side, and asked "if I asked the people who live on the other side of the village from you which side of the village this is, what would they say?" you would always be told you were on the truth-telling side. If you were on the truth-telling side, and asked the same question, you would always be told, the liar side. Thus, to find his friend, he would simply need to ask this question, and reverse the answer he gets. [EDIT]Of course, there is also the insanely simple way AJ2K1 posted.... Do I always make things too complicated, or what? :p[/EDIT][/FONT]
