Brain teaser / puzzle corner (part 2)

it's the 2 semi circles.

 

Marine Corp, did someone get it right? If not.

It's a splinter.

 

no it's not that i mean the one previous to that splinter riddle

 

Can someone give me another good riddle (one that is as good as tweaks ) I am really bored at work and need something desperately to do!

 

alright daygowop i got some more money from sc2 forum so here is three more riddles!

for 400 minerals and a owerup:
What word in uses all five vowels plus Y in alphabetical order and uses each one only once?

not good at english? heres another one for you if you know math for 250 minerals and a owerup:

say you have two hourglasses, one mesures four minutes and one measures seven minutes, how can you measure nine minutes?

like silly riddles? heres one for you! only 150 minerals cause this one is preaty common riddle

There are two bodies on the floor. They are surrounded by water and broken glass. How did they die?

 

the fishtank broke for the last one. therefore they (the fish) suffocated.

 

thats right burkid.

i bet you have no clue what the answer to the first one is.

 

youre right, i dont lol.

 

second one,

0/4 and 0/7 to start
start, 4/4 and 4/7 after 4
flip 4, 0/4 and 4/7
3/4 and 7/7 after 3
flip, 1/4 and 0/7
4/4 and 3/7 after 3
flip 7, 4/4 and 4/7
4/4 and 7/7 after 3
3+3+3=9

 

uh rethink that, eather you typed it up wrong or you did the math wrong because that does not make sense

 

yeah, i noticed, my edit adds up to 9 though

 

start both glasses when the 4 minute one is doen re flip it when the 7 minute one is done there is one minute left on the 4 minute after the minute flip over the 4 minute again when that is done it will have 9 minutes from when the 7 minute glass ended.

 

how does 3/4 spontaniously change to 1/4?

wrong again

-edit-

 

not 4 + 4 + 4. 1 + 4 + 4 is what i said there is only 1 minute left on the 4 minute glass when the 7 minute one ends and all you have to do is after that one minute is done just flip the 4 minute one 2 more times like i said in the orignal post. I know my grammar sucked on my original pst but is what it was suoppose to say.

 

@lordkerwyn
actualy if you start mesuring time after the 7 minute goes out it would be a way to measure 9 minutes but thats tooo many flips, say you gotta measure it quick. like when you flip over the first hourglass.

not the answer im looking for but because it could work i will award you 100 minerals

 

when i use a fraction, it refers to how much is on the bottom. 3/4 on bottom means 1/4 on top. flip it over and you have 1/4 on bottom with 3/4 on top

 

@hillzagold
hmm urs makes the same sense as lord kerwyns and because i didnt clarafy ill give you 100 minerals also.

but from now on i want the answer to be mesurable from the time you flip the first hourglass for full award.

 

start both glasses when the 4 is done flip it ( 4 minutes in) and when the 7 is done flip ( 7 minutes in) and when the second flip on the 4 finishes 1 minute (8 minutes in) later reflip the 7 which only have 1 minute to put back (9 minutes) 4 + 4+ 1 = 9

 

there you go lordkerwyn

now you got it.

 

I won?
Wow i thouht i might have been to late now to work on the word one.


Is facetiously the word?
