RE: Come join the fun! My entry into Mind Game Contest #1
ok you bent my mind and exposed me as not very bright because I didn't get any of them. I was close on the last one, but didn't count on leaving them on the other side so I lost that. And on the 2nd one, I protest the premise that the amputated guy can't be in a marathon. ;)
Just kidding, these were good and made me think. :)
And ps.. I didn't want to show my favoritism too much towards you, but I saw the cheerleader at work in randomwanderings post. ;)
Hey you @davemccoy. Oh, this isn’t my entry. Lol, it’s my teammate. I enticed him with this mind contest and he made his first post.
I read the questions and simply did not have the brain power. Actually, I initially responded with the below. I wasn’t trying to be smart about it, just didn’t understand why the one passenger rule! Seriously, if there was a zombie apocalypse, I don’t have time to make several trips!
haha... that is good logic too :) ... On number 2 I thought it was a trick question about the marathon runner because nowdays they actually have olympics for people that lose their legs.... We both looked at the puzzle and found flaw with the premise. I don't know if that makes us smart or stupid, but it definitely makes us funny! :D
Hi @davemccoy. You are absolutely right that an amputee can definitely run a marathon. My reasoning was the murder has his leg amputated one month ago, which is not enough time to have the surgery, recover, obtain a prosthetic leg, work through physical therapy, train for a marathon, and murder someone. Although all those tasks are not impossible to complete in one short month, but I figured it would be highly unlike.
hahaha... very good points! I think you could be a modern day Sherlock Holmes with that analytical ability to think so deeply :)
@davemccoy, our team won 2nd place in the contest! Well, my teammate did all the work. I was just the cheerleader.
It was the marathon question/response that gave us the win. 🙂
hahaha... and very good :) .. that's awesome that you win! We have lots of games going to be happening this week too... Make sure your teammates are ready to play and you also might want to do one of your own ;) ... see my last post about making a game.
Good job to the team of our head cheerleader and my favorite bee on earth!
