ok!
There are two separate rooms. In the first one there are 3 lamps, in the secont the keys that turn these lamps on and off. You enter the second room (the one with the keys) and you are allowed to do anything that does not damage the keys. You know that all 3 are off when you enter. Then you must enter the room with the lamps and say which key is to which lamp. There is no visibility between both rooms.
How will you do it?
You turn the first switch on for 5 minutes.
Then turn it off and turn the second on and get in the other room.
The first switch works the lamp that is off and hot (it has been on for 5 minutes so it should be hot).
The second switch works the lamp that is on.
The third switch works the last lamp.
Another well known problem ;).
thats right!
so I've ran out of questions again!
Somebody ask something!
Elrond... you're on!
I'm out as well for the moment...
Two cars were involved in an accident in the center of town. The man who was driving a little green car, had overtaken a big black car. The driver had misjudged the distance between him and the on-coming traffic and had to swerve back in, causing the black car to swerve and crash into a shop window. When the occupants of the cars were examined everyone in the green car was okay, but in the black car was one dead man. However, the driver of the green car was not charged with manslaughter, why was this so?
Because the woman in the big black car was already dead. The big black car was a hearse driving her to the burial ground for example.
seem right but i dont get one thing:
Where did this woman come from, my fellow bulgarian? :D
And now we are onto a trully unsolvable riddle.
:D:D:D

Oh what the heck, you're right anyway. ;)
okay the next riddle is something like a scavenger hunt :)
it has some steps to be solved so:
1. find the most common number bigger than 3 billion and less than 4 billion on the internet. (the number is not rounded it exact and precise)
2. take the number 1271999 :rolleyes:
3. sum the two numbers and find all divisors of the number not including 1 and the number itself
4. find the most common digit in these devisors multiply it by ten and suppose it's 'x' goto
http://x.com
find a link on this site that leads to another number site (there IS such link dont forget this there IS one)
5. get the number of this site and add it to the least of the devisors from step 3
6. find the user with id this number then find the longest word he has posted :)
That's it! whoever finds this word has solved the riddle :D
You can ask me questions if you dont understand anything!
and please tell me did you like this one!
