Sven's Official BrainTeaser Thread !! and Sander.
« on: Sep 03, 2008, 12:14: AM »
Hello BF-Forum members,
well I decided to open this new thread which is all about mysteries, riddles, puzzles, brainteasers or however you want to call them.
In this thread I will give you a puzzle which one of you has to solve, by doing this, he will get offered a +karma from me, (if this is allowed by the mods and admins;) ) and I will set up a new one. So if you get bored or don’t know what to do, or if you just liked riddles, try solving them!

So there also must be some kind of rules, so it makes more fun for everyone:
-If you know the answer of a puzzle, write your answer with the exact explanation why it is how you pretend it is. So everyone
 else can understand your solution
-You are not allowed to give more than one answer on one quiz
-By solving a quiz, you will get a karma from me
-If you know one puzzle already from anywhere else (and you know already the solution), don’t be egoistic and let the chance to
 the others to find the solution by themselves!

I think this is it, and I hope you have fun solving them!

Edit: I forgot to say that if someone already solve a riddle, don't hesitate solving it for yourself too! This should mostly be about
fun solving them! So don't ruin it yourself checking the other's answers. ;)

Notice: You can set up your own quiz as well! Just wait until the current one is solved, if nobody does a new one, you can
go ahead.

Ok let's start with the first one, a really easy one which should be solvable by nearly everyone:)
I'm going to do a picture to make it easier to understand.

The Farmer
Alright, there is a farmer who is living on one side of a river. He possesses some salads, a sheep, an there is a wolf who is living
around the farm. The farmer also got a boat, and so he decided to pass the river, and he wants to take the salads, the sheep an
the wolf on the other side of the river. However, the boat allows him only to take one thing on the boat. Furthermore, the farmer
should pay attention, because he cant let the sheep alone with the salads on one side, because otherwise the sheep eats it
(this counts for both sides). Also, the wolf cant be let alone with the sheep, he is going to eat it. Now the question:

How can the farmer bring all things to the other side of the river, considering all the rules listed above?

The farmer would first take the sheep over to the other side, come back for the salad than take the salad with him to the other side, drop it off and bring back the sheep with him to the original side and drop off the sheep. Now he takes the wolf with him to the other side (leaving the wolf and salads alone together since the wolf wont eat the salads) now he comes back and takes the sheep to the other side.

Don't know if you understand what I'm saying.  :popcorn:

First, he take the sheep over to the other side then he drive back again

Then he take ta sallad with him to the other side, and on the way he take back the sheep and drive back again

Now, he leave the sheep on the farm, and put the wolf on the boat, drive over to the other side and pull of the wolf there with the sallad, and the farmer is now driving back to the farm.

Now he take the sheep with him to the other side, and everyone is on the right side of the lake and everyone is happy  :pimp:



FUCK, melbourne was faster  :cursing: :cursing:

Your an inmate in a prison your planing an escape, there is only one entrance and one exit and its the bridge that takes you to the mainland (Freedom), it takes 45 minutes to cross the bridge. You are only allowed to exit or enter the prison through this bridge if you have a special pass. There is a guards room located exactly in the middle of the bridge. The guards will send back to where you came from if they catch you trying to cross without a special pass. Fortunately they are playing a game of Chess and will only look up to see if any one is crossing the bridge every 22 minutes, they look at the whole bridge and then they go back to the game. You do not have a pass, how do you make it off the prison.





Remember even if you run your fastest you can't make it in under 45 minutes and there is no where to hide on the bridge.

Also no hanging off the bridge, no jumping off and swimming to safety, no killing or bribing the guards if they discover you and all other types of shenanigans.

Hope you understand I tried to make it as understandable as possible.
