Was the man too small to reach the lock on the door and required a stick but while he slept the stick was eaten by mites?

Sherifu · 09-12-2004 04:34PM

is the man a carpenter or craftsman?

2. Hogan and Snead are professional golfers and long-time rivals. One day during a game, they had each scored 30 when Hogan hit a bad shot. Snead immediately added 10 to his own score. Snead then hit a good shot and won the game. Why?

okay... now that I think about it... you don't add 10 to you score for hitting one bad shot in golf... But 30 and 40... are the scores that you get in tennis... yeah, it makes sence in that case... they aren't actually playing golf at all...

Was the piece of stick holding the window open - his only exit to the outside world? The window collapsed, breaking the stick and locking the small man inside- he died of starvation. The guy watching is some sicko who laughs at the helpless?

haha... that's pretty elaborate. But no.

And he isn't a carpenter either.

As I said.. the size of the stick is relevant.... work more in that area...

Even in stableford scoring there's no way of getting 10 points on one hole.
They must have a side bet on.
Is it of relevance that a "bad shot" is a golf term that doesn't mean the shot was poorly played?

Nope... the dead man has the keys to the door and windows.

I don't think you'll be able to guess it without asking me more questions.

Sherifu · 09-12-2004 04:44PM

was the stick part of a ceiling fan?

They were playing tennis, check a few posts back. no. 2 is still unsolved

Monkeydude, what relation was the man laughing?

Did the small guy starve?

How small was he?

What is the meaning of life and if its 42, what is the question?

My bad I thought I posted 4 riddles, left one out becausse it was stupid, maybe later

monomaniac · 09-12-2004 04:49PM

This gets more intersting by the minute

Ok - changed my question after re-reading all the posts.
Did the dead man lock the windows and doors?

ixoy · 09-12-2004 04:49PM

Monkeyfudge question: The man was at the window. Is he inside the room?

monkeyfudge · 09-12-2004 04:54PM

okay.. a few questions to answer here

The wood is not from a ceiling fan.

The man at the window is outside the window looking in. There is no way he could have gained entry while the dead man was inside.

The victim did not starve to death. And it is his bedroom and he is supposed to be in it. And he's pretty damn small.

and I don't know about 42 or anything... but thanks for all the fish anyway...

monomaniac · 09-12-2004 04:56PM

Is the piece of wood connected to the death of the man?

Yes. Yes he did!

Spalk0 · 09-12-2004 05:00PM

Did the piece of wood come from an item of furniture in the bedroom?.....say the bed?

monomaniac · 09-12-2004 05:01PM

I'm firing the questions fast here - was the man's death accidental?

And I'm still trying to work that "size of the stick" angle.

sprinkles · 09-12-2004 05:01PM

Ok ok, so he locked the doors and windows, left a stick and some sawdust on the floor and then preceeded to die all over the floor. Right. How did he die?

Does anyone have Columbos number?

Yes. yes it is.

And the piece of wood isn't from anything else. But it does have a function.

The death was not accidental...

The answer had beeter be good. For the sake of all monkeys!!

Did the stick belong to the man at the window.

Who is the man at the window.

names would really make this a more personal riddle and help us relate to the situation. Did the poor dead man have children etc...

Will someone plese think of the children................ :eek:

monomaniac · 09-12-2004 05:09PM

Was the piece of wood a walking stick or artificial leg?

penguinbloke · 09-12-2004 05:10PM

he was boring (wood + sawdust)

so he killed himself.....

I'll get my coat

It's a pretty good answer I guess... eek eek...

The stick belonged to the dead man. And it wasn't a walking stick or an artificial leg.

Ha.. and do you remember the last time I tried to name the characters? I came up with Bosco.

Oh.. and Mysterons weren't involved.

monomaniac · 09-12-2004 05:17PM

*SPLATTER* - that's the sound of my Great Mouse Detective brain splattering all over the monitor.

Ok not an accident - was it suicide? Cause if it wasn't then we're opening up a real can of worms.

How about a hard one?

A man is dead in his bedroom. All the doors and windows are locked from the inside. On the floor near to him is a wooden stick and a pile of sawdust. The man has no visible injuries and there is a man at the window laughing.

How did the man die?

Was he a blind midget?

Spalk0 · 09-12-2004 05:22PM

Is the pile of saw dust from the stick?

Guess which one?
