What directions? I got it right. I knew the answer as soon as I read it because I'd heard the riddle before. I wrote it down on paper, backwards, and I got the right answer. Regardless, I got the middle guy on the stair part. Which is undoubtably correct.Raivyn said:

Yes, you got the middle guy on the stair part, but you said man number 2 when it is not man number 2. You lose. Sorry.
Now if you had said "the middle guy on the stairs" or "the second man in the second cell" you would have won. But you didn't. So go cry about it some more Mr. Sour Grapes.
If someone answers my God damn question of how "which suspect was able to tell the officer the color of the hat on his head and why?" asks "what colour is his hat", maybe I'll stop whining. It's not really whining anyway, it's defending my rights to win your money. You basically lied, because you said the first person to answer correctly would get the money, and you gave it to the second person. Thanks for lying, scrub.

No, but really. I got the answer correct regardless. I just said something slightly different than what you Americans can read. Sorry.
Do. You. Want. Me. To. Talk. Really. Really. Slow. For. You. American. Kids?

I don't give a shit about your question because he didn't ask the color of the hat. Don't pull me into someone else's argument.
And yes it is whining because you do not have any rights to his money. A winner could have been produced by this thread only for Moch to say "sorry no money kthxbai" and that would have been that. Makes Moch a dick if he were to do that, but you don't have any goddamn rights to his cash whatsoever.
Furthermore, you continue to confuse having the correct answer with stating the correct answer.
It is man #3 not man #2. Man #2 is the first one to the right of the red wall. You Fail.
Oho and who said I was American? I'm Australian. Good job dumbass.
Okay, then... Way to represent your country... dumbass. ^^Raivyn said:
Furthermore, everyone's entirely biased on this post, and it's mostly because it's not my money to begin with. I don't F'ing care. You can't have one guy win, then give it to someone else, especially when they don't play the game. Then that guy decides to give it to some person who never even saw the thread 'til like 12 hours after all had been said and done.
Also, regardless on who I chose, I chose the right guy, and unless you're a damn robot, you'll know who I'm talking about.
I'm not dissing all Americans. Most are cool. Just that a good portion of you are kind of killing that to me. I thought you Americans would be all smart and stuff. Not the QCDN people. Nope- most of you guys think you're hot stuff with your ultra high-level jobs and your waving 1mil in my face, yet you guys can't even read a post, so how am I supposed to compete with that?
WHOA swear much?Raivyn said:
Okay, break it down for me. Don't say that the word "color" in the question immediately means that it's asking for the colour of the hat.
Ooh ooh! I'm down to 6 reputation points already ^^.
One's down because I agreed with someone and they didn't like it. Three are down because you guys are just being stupid on this thread. Okay. I'll detriment all of your flames and bring you down too XD

Promyvion
Totally off topic, but I don't want to put a brand new thread for just one question:
If you do a Promyvion, say Dem, can you do it again with other people? Not the ENM, but the Promyvion boss it's self.

read the story and the question again, not once does it give a set numbering to the prisoners, it refers to the prisoners but does not actually number them. it takes 2 seconds of skimming for a numbering to find this true, go do it, if you can find a numbering given in the question you have some serious issues you should get checked out.
and i reiterate... There is not a point in the original question which gives a numbering to the prisoners

OH Fucking Hell!!! Just stop it!!!! Thnikkaman, you're a jerk, plain and simple. Nice way to ruin a fun game and ruin a nice gift from Sculli to Sabs. Hence why I never have thus far answered your PM and especially will not after today.

In keeping with the cheerful holidays, I have a puzzle for you ^.^
Take a look at this picture:
And the story goes:
Once upon a time 4 men were apprehended for committing a terrible crime. The police officers locked them into two jail cells which are seperated by a brick wall. In jail cell #1, is one suspect, and in jail cell #2, are the three others. The officers tell them that the crime they committed is punishable by death and they are to be executed tomorrow morning. However, being that it's near Christmas, he gives them a second chance. He goes by and places a hat on top of each suspects' heads and says,
"I have placed a hat on each of your heads. There are exactly 2 black hats and 2 white hats. WITHOUT turning around, taking off your hat, moving, making a sound or talking, if any of you can guess what color hat is on top of your head, I will let all 4 of you free. If any of you guess the wrong, you will all be shot on the spot. If any of you break the aforementioned rules, you will all die as well."
Now, my question is, which suspect was able to tell the officer the color of the hat on his head and why?
The winner of the puzzle will receive a prize of 1 million gil. (from me of course, think of it as a christmas present ^^; )
please post on this thread and i'll come back to see who has the right answer.. and YES there is a right answer and YES i know what the answer is.
Here we have the original question. Note that there are 4 men.
1 2 3 4 (unless you are some kind of common sense rebel that reads english from right to left)
Now compare this with your answer.
Thnikkaman said:
Second of 4 implies the first man in the second jail cell. Had you said 'second guy in the second cell', you would have been correct. However you failed to clearly state WHICH second guy you were talking about, therefore someone with an understandable, clear, and succinct, and CORRECT answer won, as you can see here...
Sculli said:
Sculli stated the correct answer to the question right off, then summed it up briefly. Good job Sculli.
Thnikkaman said:
He didn't misunderstand you. Moch is not a fucking mind reader. Are you a woman? Seriously, I get this shit from my girlfriend sometimes; "That's not what I said but you KNEW what I meant". Given that Moch is not a mind reader he has to go on what you gave him, that being the incorrect answer of Guy #2.
This is not as if Sculli copied your lottery ticket and claimed your money. This is as if you walked up with a number one number off from the winning number, then proceeded to bitch at Moch and Sculli because you didn't win; which is exactly what happened.
The saddest part about all of this is that you will almost certainly continue to argue that you are somehow right, when you are clearly wrong. All of this quibbling just so that you can have a pittance of funds. If it bugs you that much that you didn't get 1 million gil today then go to www.ige.com and spend 10 USD. You will have earned that million gil much more than you think you earned this million.
I PM'ed you?Kat said:
I've always done things backwards. You don't like it? Don't post on here. I've caught myself on numerous accounts answering something like "I'll be back around five to four" or something. Plus, Hebrew is right to left, not that I am Jewish. Either way, it's safe to say that unless you're a robot, or just plainly a moron, I'm right. And you know I'm right.
condoning gil selling, that'll help get rid of the problem...
the fact of the matter is if you read thnikks description you can aptly draw the conclusion that he is in fact talking about the guy in the middle of the second cell.
1. he can see -one- person in -front- of him
2. he doesn't hear the -one- person -beind- him saying his answer
