0 johny Posted June 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 sorry me I added a "poll" with link to solution with the correct answer - post #3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 andromeda Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) Having fun rookie?? EDIT: After thinking for five seconds the solution is Pinocchio and Woody are the twins, so the Pinocchio lies if his nose is growing if not then Woody lies Edited June 17, 2009 by andromeda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 rookie1ja Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Yes, trying new approach to mark threads as "solved" and having fun Thanks to Plasmid we are trying this out. I have suggested the following guidelines on how to mark your own new threads as solved - see this post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 andromeda Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) I know, and it's a great idea actually While we are at it besides the 'who solved the riddle' option we could also add stars or grades (numbers rather than letters) in order to rate the riddle at the same time while we are at it since the rating option here is not giving us any information except for the total stars average and we, after 2 minutes or so (I know that this have been discussed before but I can't remember how long exactly) can't see anymore how many people voted. This way the ranking would be out in the open, well we still wouldn't know who's given what grade but at least we'd know if someone is deliberatelly sabotaging the rating... EDIT: You didn't tell me rookie is my solution to the riddle correct? Edited June 17, 2009 by andromeda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 rookie1ja Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Rating system will be handled later. And, of course, Pinocchio and Woody are the twins My next new riddle will be either "Brothers and sister have I none, but the ..." or "greater than god, more evil than the devil" and I will not know the answer for a few posts but then it hits me - that will be fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 So basically the original riddle starts out having a blue folder next to it, and after a solution has been found it turns purple? Good enough for me. Someone mentioned, what if the author actually has a poll?, maybe after this new practice is in place and more widely used, someone that wants a poll maybe write that in the topic description part to let everyone know that it is an actual poll. Besides there's not a whole lot of polls in the riddles, and logics forum anyway. I like it, hopefully people will follow along. In the riddles section I'm sure a fair amount of authors will do this, as most of them have been posting for a while now, but the logic section I'm not so sure about. Alot of new people attempt to post, and I get the feeling most new people aren't bothering to read the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it just seems like something someone should do when they join a site. Argh! But yes, you do have it right - it will just turn to purple and say "Solved" along with the author's description. I think its going to be really great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 rookie1ja Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 So basically the original riddle starts out having a blue folder next to it, and after a solution has been found it turns purple? Good enough for me. Correct. And also prefix "Solved:" is added at the beginning of thread title in the list of threads. Someone mentioned, what if the author actually has a poll?, maybe after this new practice is in place and more widely used, someone that wants a poll maybe write that in the topic description part to let everyone know that it is an actual poll. Besides there's not a whole lot of polls in the riddles, and logics forum anyway. Actual polls will be with "Solved:" too, however, that does not effect the functionality of the poll itself. The polls work normally as before. Mentioning in the actual poll title the word "Poll" should be clear enough. I like it, hopefully people will follow along. In the riddles section I'm sure a fair amount of authors will do this, as most of them have been posting for a while now, but the logic section I'm not so sure about. Alot of new people attempt to post, and I get the feeling most new people aren't bothering to read the rules. The rules explain how to get the most of this site - they should help. Show tips&tricks, warn in advance what is not allowed, answer the basic questions that new members might have. PS: continue discussion on the new poll-solved idea in the original thread - http://brainden.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9215 Thread locked.
