Title: Hard Questions
Post by: Dobby_ROX on January 28, 2009, 03:55:20 PM
O.K so you get three lives you gotta get the answer right or close or you lose a life



What came first the chicken or the egg??
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: fudge0604 on January 28, 2009, 10:36:59 PM
The chicken, came first, since it's an grown animal. It evolved, and an egg can't just come off itself.

But, the answer could be how Luna said, A circle doesn't have a start or an end. But, I don't think that : P

Yeah, I agree with Fudge :)
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: Sky on January 29, 2009, 07:48:09 PM
I would say the Chicken because it has to take care of the egg.
Though chickens don't reproduce Asexually, do they? (Which means reproduction by one parent..)
So there would have to be 2 chickens..
But yeah. An egg can't care for itself.

Eh...the real question is, when does an egg 'become' a chicken. 

Oh GAWD. We are not having the "invisible line of life" discussion here, PLEASE. I'll end up hurting someone. =|

The sperm comes from the man and the egg is produced by a women both combined make a living thing inside the Mum's womb after nine months of baking taadaa you have a baby! (I don't really wanna explain how the sperm got to the egg)

Se crossed it out, which means she didn't expect an answer.

I'm sure Sky knows the process.

Nope. An opened umbrella. `Cause you can open it and force it up the chimney, but after you get to the top, you`d have to break it to pull it back down.

Now, this question isn`t realistic, but please go with it.

You are in an enclosed room with no windows or doors. The only things in the room are a table and a mirror. How do you get out?
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: Dobby_ROX on February 8, 2009, 03:36:30 PM
Look at the mirror it is the Mirror of Erised
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: potter_fan122 on February 9, 2009, 01:53:47 AM
If it was the Mirror of Erised, you would only see what you wanted to see, which would probably be a door, but it wouldn`t take you to a door.

Look in the mirror, see what you saw, take the saw, cut the table in half put the two halves together to make a hole and jump through the hole!

Haha, I know. Trust me I DID NOT MAKE IT UP. My teacher last year was into riddles and stuff, so she would ask us a riddle and the first person to get the right answer would get some prize. No one got that one, which is probably the only reason I remember it.
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: fudge0604 on February 9, 2009, 04:11:50 AM
That was incredibly weird, though it was logically impossible at the same time...

Ok. Here I have a good one! You have ten nearly identical small balls made of metal.
The only thing, is that one of them is a bit heavier!

Now. You have an old fashioned scale, this one.(http://pro.corbis.com/images/CB068300.jpg?size=572&uid=%7BDCA4C1EB-078A-45B7-80F1-E032E40829BB%7D)

Now, your gonna find out which one is the heavier!

Some help, think of these as the metall balls. O.O.O.O O.O.O.O.O.O

Uhm, I don`t get your question, Albus. What are we trying to figure out?
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: fudge0604 on February 10, 2009, 02:45:27 PM
You're gonna try and figure out which is the heaviest, by using that scale!
Now then, this is more of a theoretical riddle, you just have to find out how many marble's to put up on the scale, and how to figure it out by that.

I'm sorry now, I discovered that I made a mistake. There are 9 marbles, and you can only use the scale twice.

Good luck!
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: Sky on February 11, 2009, 04:39:27 AM
Chuck the 9 balls out the window and go get some ice cream?

Mmmm....that sounds really good right now seeing that my throat is a little scratchy..
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: potter_fan122 on February 11, 2009, 08:43:23 AM
I`m going with Sky`s answer. I like ice cream, not marbles.
Title: Re: Hard Questions

C'mon! But what if the ice cream gives you a brainfreeze?

Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: potter_fan122 on February 13, 2009, 11:22:46 AM
Uh, point made. Here`s my answer:

There are nine balls, so you have to put five balls on one side of the scale and four on the other because you can`t split one of them in half. The side with nine balls is heavier. Duh.
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: fudge0604 on February 13, 2009, 07:06:25 PM
Nope. It's ONE of the balls that is heavier, and you can't find that out with your theory.

Any other?  ;D

I HAVE A QUESTION!!! You may have heard it before, but answer it anyway, please!

You have a chicken, a fox, and a bag of grain on one side of a river and you need to get all three objects to the other side of the river, how do you do that?
Title: Re: Hard Questions
Post by: Dobby_ROX on February 16, 2009, 02:34:53 PM
You missed out half the question you missed out this bit: the Chicken will eat the grain and the Fox will eat the Chicken and that only you an on object can go over.

Get the chicken to the other side, get the fox to the other side after which you would bring the chicken to the previous side. Then you get the feed and bring it to the other side and then you bring the chicken to the other side.

Basically, all you needed to know was that you can bring BACK animals.


Now then...

Two parrots are in front of you along with two doors to the left and right. One door leads to hell and the other leads to heaven. The parrots know which door leads to heaven and which one leads to hell. You get to ask one parrot ONE question to figure out which door leads to heaven.

HOWEVER, one parrot always lies and one parrot always tells the truth. Through asking your one question to either parrot, how can you figure out which door leads to heaven?

2. What is the last known digit of pi?
3. What is the Photosynthesis Equation?
4. How many frogs fit in a barrel?
5. Everthing has to be something, or it would be nothing. But nothing is nothing, so it has to be something. So if nothing were something and nothing were nothing, what is something?

For 2, pi has no end. So there is no "known" last digit. And 5 is just a literalistic maze with no satisfying or correct payoff. Three is a google search away. Four depends on many factors including the size of the barrel, the size of the frogs, etc. And for one, seals technically don't drink water. They get the fresh water they need from other animals.

This is poorly phrased since you cannot just reassign values for given numbers.  10=10 and will always equal 10 even if we went to a tribe in africa where 10 is actually written as 15 but that would still equal 15 to them.  

X can be said to equal any number or any letter since in math we know that a letter can equal a number or even a whole function.  

10 =/= 20 but x can equal 10.  

Though from looking at that it looks like a simple 2x equation where X equals the first number so 2x where X equals 80 would be 160.

I love this one.  You will ask any parrot this question.  "If I would have asked the other question, which door leads to Heaven, what would he say?"

If you asked that to the truth speaking bird you will get a lie since it would have been what the lying bird would have said.  If you ask that to the lying bird he will still tell you a lie since it would be a lie of what the truth bird would say.  So ask them that question then pick the other door.  By asking that question you forced both birds to lie.

It was a hypothetical I know they don't really equal that!!
