dino 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 or just ask him which way he lives...and go that way...either way he'll point to the safe villageNope, i think you ask one of them what the other one would say, and then pick the opposite.If you picked the truth guy, then he would tell you the answer of the liar, so you must pick the opposite. If you pick the liar, he would lie and give you the wrong path, so you also pick the opposite....why be so complicated? the cannibal (liar) would point to the safe village, since he always lies...the non-cannibal would point to his own (safe) village, since he always tells the truth...ask him to point to the village where he lives, and go thereNo good - you don't know which one is which - only that one always lies and the other always tells the truth.

benhoug 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 So i was playing with a couple friends, when someone mentioned a riddle and i decided to share. Undoubtably someone will know the answer because they heard it somewhere and just respond but i thought it was a difficult one.A man walks into the bar and asks for a drinkThe bartender whips out a shotgun and points it at the guyThe man says Thank you and walks out of the bar.Why?Yes and no questions are allowed.if you know the answer because you heard it, dont' post.If you don't know, feel free to try and post an answer that you think is right.i'm bored at work.I haven't heard it, but hiccups sounds about right.

The Nuts 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 My guess (didn't look at the other answers):Shotgun is a mixed drink. Hence, he asked for a shotgun, the bartender made it for him and that was that. Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Can I go back to the scientists and the feathers? I get that the last guy didn't see two black feathers, and the middle guy knew that. What's the rest?Please, don't make me go back through 35 pages to find it....please.Last guy didn't see 2 black feathers so 1 and 2 must be:white - white, white - black, or black - white. If #1 was black #2 would know that his was white and answer. Since he didn't answer, #1 must be white. Link to post Share on other sites
