It'll end up wearing off.

Besides, according to Legend.. it doesn't need much brainpower! :whistle:
Haha no, i didn't mean it like that. I was just 'dissing' my riddles, A LOT of people still didn't get mine. You're on fire. :laugh:

But that 'underground' one i wouldn't have got because i'd have overcomplicated it too much.

Bells 07-02-2007 09:48 PM

I know you didn't, I'm only kidding. :laugh:

That's the thing though, it's just logic and the obvious - people fail to see that you really do state the first thing that comes to your head in some cases!

I should let Hitman do this or I`l mess it up. But basically there were apples on a tree ..he doesn`t take apples but he doesn`t leave apples on the tree either...how?
Hope I haven`t ruined that Hitman.

The_Hitman 07-02-2007 10:13 PM

Explain the first two lines, then the second two.

The apples fell off? :conf: Lmao. My answers are so ditzy.

Maybeeee... cos he was blind he didn't know there was a tree with apples on, so he didn't take them off, but he didn't leave them on - cos he didn't know they were on?
Pmsl. Fine, I'm silly.

EDIT: And he didn't view the skies?

it has a lot of levels, so if you like riddles then maybe check it out

See if anyone can get this, I have yet to meet anyone that can work it out.

There are two twin angels, one guarding the door to heaven, one guarding the door to hell. Neither doors can be identified as to which is heaven and which is hell.

You have died, and you are now before these two angels. You want to go to heaven, but do not know which door to go through.

You are allowed only ONE question to only ONE of the angels.

There is one problem though, one of the twin angels ALWAYS lies, and one of the twin angels ALWAYS tells the truth.

But just as the doors cannot be identified, neither can the angels.

WHAT QUESTION DO YOU ASK SO YOU KNOW WHICH DOOR TO GO THROUGH?

ENJOY!:devil:

The_Hitman 08-02-2007 09:16 AM

Ask, "Is his (the other angel) door the door to heaven?"

Ella 08-02-2007 09:19 AM

There was a man who was born before his father, killed his mother, and married his sister. Yet, there was nothing wrong with what he had done. Why?

Have you heard this before?

Bells 08-02-2007 10:26 AM

ttw, I've heard the riddle before as well.
But I couldn't figure it out when I first heard it, it's really brain-boggling.

Are you going to tell us? It doesn't look like anyones going to get it.

Lauren 08-02-2007 12:33 PM

Ask the other angel, if the other angel will say yes.

:conf: I know that sounds weird but I understood it in my head, just can't explain it.

Yeah. Ask one angel what the other angel would say to the question "Is yours the door to heaven?".

ttw 08-02-2007 12:42 PM

No body is even guessing lol

It is "If I asked the other angel is this the door to heaven what would he say?"

and the response would be either "yes" in which case you go through the other door, or "no" in which case you go through the door.

I'm pretty sure that is right, it confuses me sometimes lol

It is "If I asked the other angel is this the door to heaven what would he say?"

Sooo... I got right? :puzzled: Lmao.

But you don't know which one would lie? So you're still guessing. It's all very confusing but I think I get it.

Yeh, but look at it like this

" If I asked the other angel is this the door to heaven what would he say?"


HELL / LIAR = YES

HEAVEN / TRUTH = No

OR

HELL / TRUTH = YES

HEAVEN / LIAR = No

So in what ever case is the answer is yes you go through the other door, and if the answer is no, you go through that door.

(I hope the diagram type thing makes sense)

that can't be the correct answer.

I think the man must ask either of the angels this question:

`If I ask the other angel which door she is watching over, what would she say`

OK,so if the man poses this question to the liar the answer
would be;

`the other angel would say she is watching over hell (lie)

and if the man had posed the same question to the truthful
angel the answer will be

`she will say she is watching over heaven`.


This is taking for ever to think through so its probably already been answered.Anyway its only what I recall from years ago
but in a different format. But is it right??



Edit: Typically late again. Can someone tell me how I could have checked that it hadn`t been answered already after spending 15 minutes thinking about it and writing it down,
I`m the only one who seems to do this.!!
