Okay, anyone got good riddles?
Well anyway, I'll start it off, shall I?

A nice easy one:
There are two sheep in a field. One is looking North and the other sheep is looking South. But, they can see each other.
How can that be?
NB|there is no mirrors or anything miscellenous there
just two ordinary sheep and a field.....

Pompey Magnus · 12-11-2003 07:48PM

the sheep looking south is north of the sheep looking north?

You arrive at the gate of heaven and hell. Two guardians are here. None of them is seating in front of a particular gate, they are just walking around. One of the gate leads to heaven, the other to hell, and as you might have guessed, you have to find which one. The only thing you know is that one of the guardian is always lying and the other always telling the truth. You can ask one question to one of them.

They're at one of the magnetic poles whereby north and south become irrelevant

Or more simply, they're standing facing each other

As for the guardian one, the question you should ask is "If I ask the other guardian if this door goes to heaven, what would he say?" If the answer is no, then choose that one, because if it's the lying one he would lie and say that the truthful one would say no, and if it's the truthful one, he would answer truthfully that they lying one would say no. If the answer's yes, choose the other one.

Pompey Magnus · 12-11-2003 08:20PM

thats probably a better way to put it alright!

yeah, right answer! Ask: "What would the other guardian tell me if I asked him for the door to heaven?". (And take the other one )

p.s. 400th post- yay

bus77 · 12-11-2003 09:33PM

He got traped in a sauna!!!
Blood was around him because he was sweating blood.

For those that think this is a mad suggestion.
FACT: The body starts sweating blood when its out of sweat:eek:

Not alot of people know that:D

I thought he was hanging from the ceiling but the ceiling was too tall and there were no chairs or anything in the room. Only a puddle of water. So the answer is he stood on top of an ice cube to hang himself.

quank · 12-11-2003 10:28PM

KEEP GUESSING
(unless ye want me to say the answer;))

Beëlzebooze · 13-11-2003 10:51AM

every evening a man comes home from work and rides the elevator to the 4th floor of the appartment building he lives in, he then get's out and uses the stairs to the 7th floor, where his appartment is.

however, on rainy days, he rides the elevator all the way up to the 7th floor.

explain.

dudara · 13-11-2003 10:59AM

He is a midget and can only reach the 4th floor button. However, when it is raining he has an umbrella with him which he can use to extend his reach.

You're a secret agent trying to infiltrate a super-villan's secret lair. You lie in wait outside the large gate at the front entrance, a trap door is located in front of the door. You see a shadowy character approach the door, a voice from the doorman inside says "six" the character responds "three" and the door is opened for him. Another character approaches, the doorman says "twelve" and the response "six" is successful.
You have heard enough, you go to the door and are confronted with the number "ten". You have one response or it's into the murky depths of the trap door with you, what do respond?

The answer is "one"

The answer the guy wants is "Nine" or a multiple of nine.
So the first guy answers corectly by adding 3 + 6 = 9

The second guy 12 + 6 = 18

You can add to the figure only if the number you give can be divided into the first number given.
If not, then you have to divide, so 1 - 10 = 9
So the anwser is 1......phew:p

Grrr, that better be it:rolleyes:
