    The Logic Quiz

    This is a game for people who are able to think logically and outside the box!

    You will be presented with a challenging riddle to solve, PM your answer in the first 24 hours and you'll receive 3 points for the correct anwer. After 24 hours, I'll post a clue, PM the correct answer and you get 2 points. After 24 more hours, I'll post a second clue. If you answer after the 2nd clue is posted, you get 1 point for giving the correct answer.
    24 hours after the 2nd clue, I'll post the solution and the next question.

    First person to 15 points is the winner!

    Examples:

    Question -
    George walked through the door and said to his wife, "I shot two eagles today." She sighed and told him that he should have shot more. Why wasn't she upset that he shot an endangered species?

    Clue 1 - George normally shoots in grassy areas.

    Clue 2 - George wears special shoe.

    Solution -
    George is a professional golf player ansshot only two holes under par (getting an eagle). He usually performs much better.
    **note** Answering that he played two holes of golf would be fine too.

    Question -
    A doctor mixed a batch of medicine for his client and then he drank it down himself. Why?

    Clue 1 - It tasted good!

    Clue 2 - It worked better with straw.

    Solution -
    Coca-Cola was invented when a doctor was mixing headache medication to taste good. The approval board found that the medicine tasted better than it worked, so they carbonated the liquid and then marketed it!

    Clue 1 - he was playing with his family.

    Note - if you've sent in an answer and change it now to the correct one, you get 2 points.

    If you think you've already sent in the correct answer then hang tight.:D

    Arrghh...this game is a great idea, and I'm a sucker for riddles and mind games. Can't believe I missed the sign-up! :_|

    Jag, is it possible for you to PM me when a new game starts? [face_alien_1]

    Why is there a limit to signups for this game? Seems to me you could just accept PMs from whomever and keep score?

    Since it was the first game we weren't sure how it would go over. If you guy's would like to play and want in, I'm willing to expand the number of players while we're still on the first question. Just let me know within the next 24 hours.

    I'm thrilled you're interested in playing. The questions are going to be a lot of fun.[face_skull]

    Clue 2: The course was short.

    Tomorrow I'll post the solution, points awarded, and the next riddle.:)

    I'd be interested in this as well. But for the first game, I definitely understand you limiting the sign-up list ... nothing wrong with demand! ;)



    I think I have this answer... I'm curious now... [face_laugh]

    The amateur golf player was able to hit a hole-in-one on four of the eighteen holes. How?

    Solution:
    He was playing on a minature golf course (Putt-Putt).

    That one was just a warm up.[face_mischief]

    6. Trimaj 0
    7. MarcusP2 1
    8. Qui-Gon_Reborn 0

    Next riddle:

    Christopher turned as the door opened and saw Amelia standing there. Frightened, he ran to the edge of the porch and jumped, landing three stories below. He stood, unharmed, and continued running. How?

    Clue 1:
    He jumped off high objects often.


    You can change your answer if you're having second thoughts. I shouldn't say this but I squealed when one of you nailed the answer first try. It'll be sad if you change to the wrong answer.[face_mischief]

    Hmm, still only one person with the correct answer.[face_worried]


    Think outside the box, guys.

    Clue 2:

    Christopher and Amelia are unrelated.


    Get those answers in today! :)

    Me too, gunner. I can't wait for tomorrow so I can find out the answer. My answer works, but is probably wrong.
