There is a square room with no windows and only one door. Inside the room there is a single lamp. Outside the room there are three lightswitches (A,B and C).

You are only allowed to open the door ONCE. How do you ditermine which switch turns on the light?

-and you cant keep the door open, look under the door, break down the wall, have someone else in the room or anything to this effect-

Post answers and/or new riddles.

If two of the switches operate lights that can be seen from outside the room, then the one that appears to have no effect is the one for the light in the room. ???

16th Jul 2007, 04:03 PM
No. but I'v never heard that answer before!

Paul_UK
16th Jul 2007, 04:06 PM
Do we actually need to know which switch it is, or do we just want to turn the light on? If we just want to turn the light on then operate all three switches and be done with it!

dreamer
16th Jul 2007, 04:07 PM
not really sure what to do if people want the answers. so just say the word.

Paul_UK
16th Jul 2007, 04:11 PM
Let people keep guessing for now. If nobody gets it in a couple of days then give the answer. I think someone will get it though (even if they cheat and look it up online somewhere).

I'm gonna be thinking about this one now, so I don't want the answer revealed too soon.... :)

dreamer
16th Jul 2007, 04:12 PM
Clue: the aim is just to find out which switch is connected to the light. You dont need to be in the room with the light on.

And you could just put all three switches on but thats not the point of the riddle! Oh the fun of logic. I took physics...you've got to expect some degree of geekiness

Replace the light bulb with a bell or something that makes a noise?

DJ Sweetz
16th Jul 2007, 04:27 PM
You turn on switch A first, wait a few seconds, then turn it off. Next, turn on switch B, then go into the room. Touch the light bulb. If the light bulb is hot, It's light switch A, If it's on now, it's light switch B, But if the bulb is still cold, it's light switch C.

Darn It! Darn It!

A fire fighter, a paramedic and a chef were playing poker, then all of the sudden cops come in come into the room and arrests the fire fighter. The cops said that the fire fighter was involved with a murder and a witness said that the killer lived at this address, but the chef and fire fighter never knew anything about the murder. How did the cops know the fire fighter was a murderer?

A horse is tied to a 15 foot rope. The horse is 5 feet long from tip of the snout to end. A bale of hay sits 21 feet from the begining of the rope, but the horse is able to eat from it. How is this possible?

Congrats to Grillz!

okay. next riddle:
There was a guy who had a Fox, a Chicken, and a bag of Grain.

He had to cross a river to get back home, but he could only take one item with him at a time. He could only take the fox, or the grain, or the chicken.

Well, if you leave a chicken and a fox on one side of the river while taking the bag of grain across, the fox will eat the chicken, same thing with the chicken and the grain. Can't leave those two alone or the chicken will eat the grain.

How do you get them all across the river safely?

davo-man
16th Jul 2007, 10:01 PM

16th Jul 2007, 10:07 PM
ive seen it before, so i had a head start lol

heres the next one

You are lost in a forest. The forest is between two villages. In villageA live only liars, they always lie. In village B people always tell the truth. You want to go to village B. Then you see a man from village A or B. You can ask him only one question.
Which question will you ask him to know for sure where village B is ?

Now i got two answers for this one so ill accept both

DJ Sweetz
16th Jul 2007, 10:13 PM
Ask the man which city he lives in. He will always point to village B.

davo-man
16th Jul 2007, 10:17 PM
You totally copy and pasted that, but yeah thats the answer....lol...the other one that i thought of was ask him "If i asked you yesterday what village was Village B, what would your answer be"

okay ur turn to copy and pa.....i mean think up a riddle hehe

DJ Sweetz
16th Jul 2007, 10:21 PM
What is so fragile that when you say its name you break it?

And I did not paste and copy! I highlighted and dragged the answer!

GuitarGirl1350
16th Jul 2007, 10:21 PM
I know the answer for this! But I can't figure out how to write it!!! UGHHH!!!
Here's what I get from it:

You ask one what the other would say. The liar would say "right", which would actually mean "left". The truth teller would say "left" and mean it. Truth would tell you what Lie told you. You should take the path suggested by both of them.

This is correct because you can ask ONE QUESTION, but it never says you can't ask the same question multiple times.

GuitarGirl1350
16th Jul 2007, 10:23 PM
crap! I totally missed out on that opportunity! I'm sorry!!!

GuitarGirl1350
16th Jul 2007, 10:27 PM
and the answer is silence.

We had this one in my Java class this year; I didn't remember it verbatim but I found it online. Sorry I had to copy it, but I needed it to be exact.

Three people check into a hotel. They pay $30 to the manager and go to their room. The manager finds out that the room rate is $25 and gives $5 to the bellboy to return. On the way to the room the bellboy reasons that $5 would be difficult to share among three people so he pockets $2 and gives $1 to each person.

Now each person paid $10 and got back $1. So they paid $9 each, totalling $27. The bellboy has $2, totalling $29.

Where is the remaining dollar?

davo-man
17th Jul 2007, 07:26 AM
It doesnt actually total $29 cos you dont add the $2 to the $27, you subtract it...Think of it this way...the cutomers give the hotel $30 and they get $5 in change because the room is only $25 dollars...now cos they cant split the $5 between three ppl, they give the bell boy $2 and give one dollar each to each of them...This means that now the hotel has $25, so it is square...each of them has $3 and the bell boy has $2....add them together and it totals $30...the orginal number....Now remembering this, the above situation is basically the same except the bellboy splits up the money, not the customer...so the $1 didntdisappear

Will be back in a sec to get anothe rone

davo-man
17th Jul 2007, 07:39 AM
okay this one hard so if you really cant get the answer then the answer is somewhere in cyberspace

The policeman is the boy's father and (presumably) liable for the boy's fines.

Nick and Dick were leaving the cafeteria. as they passed the cashier, Nick paid his bill, but Dick handed the cashier a slip of paper w/ the number 1004180 on it. The cashier studied the number for a moment, then let Dick pass by w/o paying. Why?

Level N Human
17th Jul 2007, 07:53 PM
Umm.. Dick has a lunch pass because he applied for government aid and 1004180 is his ID number that the cashier must cross off a list of? (At least that's how it works at my highschool)

Dick is very charming and exchanged his phone number, 100-4180, and a wink for a free lunch. The cashier acquiesces.

^ Correct. (Although if you were going to be really technical, it would be night and day. 'Cause the first one is night and the second one is day.)

Tim works on the 40th floor of his building. He gets to work early and leaves on time. He takes the stairs up when he comes in (not by choice), but he takes the elevator down when he leaves. Why can't he take the elevator up?

Blue0090
17th Jul 2007, 08:58 PM
maybe coz he goes to work early so the elevator is still dead?

Moth
17th Jul 2007, 09:02 PM
Nope. Good guess, but the electricity is on and the elevator works.

DJ Sweetz
17th Jul 2007, 09:18 PM
He's security at the building so he unlocks all the doors in the stair well on the way up to his office. And another person locks all the doors so he takes the elevators down. I dunno.

davo-man
17th Jul 2007, 09:24 PM
He is incredibly short so he cannot reach the button to the floor that he works on but he can push the ground button...So in the morning he must take the stairs, but at night he can take the elevator

Moth
17th Jul 2007, 09:45 PM
Davo-man, you were pretty much right. He's a midget, so he can't reach the elevator buttons. Since he leaves on time with everyone else, someone else pushes the button so he doesn't have to.

Your guess was very good and imaginative, though, Grillz! I never thought of anything like that.

davo-man

It was a boring hot summer day and mother nature would not give even a slightest breeze. I decided to stay at home and sleep with the aircon at full blast. Business was slow these days. Nobody wants to hire a detective.

"Jack, come quick! someone vandalized the Mayor's head in the park."

I was prodded half awake by my friend Jill from my slumber. The words barely registered in my mind. How can someone vandalized the mayor's head? Didn't he notice it? I switched of the air conditioning in my room, dressed lightly then I followed Jill to the park. Of course! The new statue that the mayor wants to reveal this coming saturday.

We went to the park and found the Mayor very agitated and looking at 3 teenagers. I studied the boys. Jamison looked so downcast that his jaws seemed to touch the ground. Donald was just chewing gum and playing with the tail of his kite. Bonnie looked at me, daring me to point at him. I never did like that boy. Always shouting and hanging out with his so-called pals.

"I was reading over there by the bench", pointed Jill. "When the mayor started shouting saying someone ruined his face. I went over there and found this." I stifled a giggle when i looked at the statue. Serves the mayor right but still this was a job to do. Jill continued, "nobody went past me today except these three kids so i'm sure one of them did this."

Jamison said, "It's not me, I swear. I did take a peek out of curiousity but i left it alone. I always walk past the statue on my way to the Library." i did a mental map. The library was on the other side of this park.

Donald said, "I was flying my kite an hour ago." He looked suspiciously at Jamison, "Hey if you're on your way to the library, why are you walking this way? The library is over there stupid." I nodded my head in agreement but didn't say a thing.

Bonnie said. "Point at me and you're going to get this on your face." He shook his knuckled fist at me and added, "I just took a drink from that drinking fountain behind the statue."

Jill and the Mayor looked at me expectantly. I pointed at the boy who vandalized the statue.

A black dog stands in the middle of an intersecton in a town painted black. None of the street lights are working due to a power failure caused by a storm.

I'm thinking its got to do with double entendres (if thats how you spell it)...shooting actually refers to taking a photo of him

Wait, is it that woman takes a photo of the man, then develops it (you know how they put it under liquid) and then hang it up to dry...then they celebrate the wonderful process of photograpy?

The paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gatsby, walking towards that group, saw a young girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... "

The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's

this one's pretty easy i reckon so it probably won't take you long...

Imagine you are in a sinking rowboat surrounded by sharks. How would you survive?

davo-man
19th Jul 2007, 04:00 AM
Well you would survive cos you're only imagining it...the sharks arent gunna leap out and kill you from your imagination, unless you are actually imagining this on a sinking rowboat surrounded by sharks

And im gunna guess that your favourite Batman villain is Riddler?....

Here's the newest riddle:

There was a guy stuck in a metal room with a metal door.The door was locked and there were no windows. The following items were inside the room:
a piano, table,a saw,and a bat.
How did the man get out? (3 ways)

Psych!
26th Jul 2007, 01:38 PM
umm, wow, did he use the saw to cut the bat and use it as a lock pick??? lol

DJ Sweetz
26th Jul 2007, 01:43 PM
uh....no, there are 3 answers to this

Psych!
26th Jul 2007, 01:47 PM

man this is kinda hard, are you sure there's no more details??? :icon_sad:

26th Jul 2007, 01:48 PM
Yep, that's all the info you're gonna get and need

Atom
26th Jul 2007, 01:50 PM
is this something like...


he used the saw to cut the bat into two halves, put the two halves together to make a hole, and climbed out of the room through the hole?

I think I remember telling something like that a long long time ago, many many times.
Hmm, but maybe not!

DJ Sweetz
26th Jul 2007, 01:51 PM
That was kinda close.....

Psych!
26th Jul 2007, 01:55 PM
did he put the table on top of the piano and climb out (that is if there's no roof)

man I feel stupid right now :eusa_doh:

DJ Sweetz
26th Jul 2007, 02:02 PM
hint:The guy used every object to get something

Psych!
26th Jul 2007, 02:05 PM
man, another one of my random guesses but did he use the saw to cut the bat and the piano and table legs in half to use them as stilts? or did he use the legs and bat to ram the door?

DJ Sweetz
26th Jul 2007, 02:12 PM
sorry nope....
hint: getting out requires using the objects in a certain way.....

Psych!
26th Jul 2007, 02:16 PM
srry man, but I gotta give it to you, I have no idea how to solve this riddle, where's the Riddler when you need him

26th Jul 2007, 07:46 PM
Aha, okay...



So he plays a key on the piano (i assume he/she somehow obtains this key, with another play on words that I'm not witty enough to find), then cuts the baseball bat in half, puts the two halves together to make a "hole," then puts the key in the hole (now a key hole on the door?) on the door, unlocks the door, and leaves????


That may have been too much of a stretch and not enough of an actual discovery of what happened, but that's my new and improved super duper MALuper revised guess.

DJ Sweetz
26th Jul 2007, 08:44 PM
Eh...Close enough here's the answer:

First, he played the piano until he found the right key.Second, he sawed the table in half then held the two pieces together. Two halves make a whole.(hole)Third, he swung the bat three times. Three strikes, he's out.

27th Jul 2007, 01:59 AM
hmm alright. i think i have one. but its more of a moral/lesson than a riddle. ill tell you it after.

On a beautiful, sunny day, John and his father went out for a quiet drive up into the mountains. As they were heading up the steep cliff, John's father lost control of the car and the car slipped off the edge. Miraculously, both John and his father survived, although both were in need of major surgery. Both were rushed to the hospital and were immediately taken into surgery. A beautiful nurse comes in and sees John. She immediately goes to find the doctor to operate on him. The doctor walks in and says "I can't operate on this patient. He's my son." How'd that happen?

Psych!

His father is a doctor...

k got one.

A man was to be sentenced, and the judge told him, "You may make a statement. If it is true, I'll sentence you to four years in prison. If it is false, I'll sentence you to six years in prison." After the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free. What did the man say?

p.s. this one was not copy and pasted from a website:icon_wink

phoenix17
27th Jul 2007, 02:22 AM

o fine *runs and pouts*

kevinx519
27th Jul 2007, 03:32 AM
haha. alright alright. here it is

He said, "You'll sentence me to six years in prison." If it was true, then the judge would have to make it false by sentencing him to four years. If it was false, then he would have to give him six years, which would make it true. Rather than contradict his own word, the judge set the man free.

I got this from a book, some of you may have read it but the series doesn't seem to popular. (It's not that hard really)

A king dined with his daughter,
His friend and his friend's wife
All were greedy beasts.
Who loved food more than life
When at last three pies remained,
There wasn't any knife
How did all get equal shares,
And save themselves from strife?
