I don't want to play this one, but is it ok if I hang around and watch the action? I won't say anything. (Why isn't there a shhhh emote?)

Just a question about Brainden. If I'm on a page and someone posts on that page, do I have to reload to see it?

It can never be a simple problem with you, can it, wolfgang? Nice puzzle!
-
(^^^ I see you can edit again.)
Does the line have to end on the "sphere" or just pass through it?
-
This is completely off topic, but never mind... Does anybody know how you can get an animated avatar? Just out of interest.

Who said that the driver was male?
Does it matter?
@Wolfgang Is there an upper limit?
edit: typo

Whoa, lots of posts at once!
@ WoD When this thread is finished, can you post a link to the next one because a lot of people didn't know there was another thread.

Im in CST.
And just a quick q, do you guys want me to post my questions here? Like, just put them all in one post? Because I can't seem to be able to upload a word doc here. And then maybe you guys can all just copy and paste the questions onto your own comp and save it, so we all have a copy.
That would work ... but what happens when you try to upload it?

Some inconclusive analysis
In order to insure 3 passengers on every trip, someone must travel across the river, back to original side and another trip to get to the desired side.
With the $33 limit, this person crossing both ways extra must be the baby.
If it's the baby, doesn't that present a problem because the baby has to travel with a family member?
Edit: typo.

Kudos to SeaCalMaster!

guess]It said the window was unbroken, however it could have been opened by the killer and then closed again. If it was locked, maybe the killer had a key to the window, and unlocked it from the outside.

Every guest may strike with the Blue Truth, including newcomers. New arrivals will be seated quickly, but are free to use Blue Truth in their first post.
In addition, two guests from the same side of the table may not strike consecutively. If they do, all strikes but the first will be ignored.
I assume that means that a newcomer will automatically be seated on the opposite side to the side that most recently attacked.

What time zones are you guys in? I'm in EST.

... Amiab is bang on. Well done!

Wait...is it a combined total of $33 or $66?

^^^ That makes sense.

Question: This is only my second topic posted, am I supposed to say when someone gets the answer?
-
A friend told this to me, and I thought I'd share it here:
100 pirates need to allocate 100 identical laptops among them. Their democratic system works as follows:
All pirates are ranked by their seniority (all pirates have different ranks). First, the most senior pirate proposes a plan that states exactly how many laptops each pirate gets. The 100 pirates vote on the plan and it passes at least half of the pirates vote for it. If it passes, all pirates take their laptops and go home. If it fails, the one who proposed the plan (the most senior pirate in this case) is killed, and the second most senior pirate takes his place and proposes his plan.The same process is repeated in the order of seniority until someone's plan is passed.
Assume every pirate makes his decision based on the following priorities:
1. He doesn't want to die.
2. Given he's not going to die, he would prefer to get as many laptops as possible.
3. Given he's going to get the same number of laptops, he would prefer as many other pirates to die as possible.
Also assume every pirate is logical, rational, and selfish (wants as many laptops as possible and doesn't care what anyone else gets as long as it doesn't affect him) and knows everyone else is the same. What will happen? i.e. whose proposal will be passed and what is the proposal?

@ Cav you changed your avatar as well?

A ship of steam on a ladder, rather than the sea, would be a train.
According to the WoD's earlier text, during the 'quake "A toy boxcar fell off of the table with the model railroad set, crashing violently on the ground, but was miraculously undamaged,"
I pick it up and examine it......
And as for Nat's riddle 1:
I believe this to be 'Love'
Giving love buit not receiving is frustrating, sharing it with another is elating, sharing it with more than one person confuses, having a loveless relationship is an illusion of happiness.
Riddle 2 may need coming back to, but here's a stab in the dark:
Earthquake? Would shake the large mirror, causing it to fall to the floor, making many smaller mirrors when it smashes...
I agree with 1, but I don't know if 2 would be that obvious. It's definitely plausible, though. How many locks have we gotten through?

@ Cav You changed your sig, I noticed.
