    ???, I'm looking at your answers and I can't find the differences. What are you seeing in them, the only one I can see is I4.

    I did, but when it fully loaded, it changed back to the same size as it was on the post, so it didn't help

    No, oops! Forgot I could zoom in. Oh well, I could have never found all those anyway, there;s to much detail for me to find anything that's only a few pixels big.

    Heres another brainteaser for you guys.

    There are two bags, one has 50 white marbles one has 50 black marbles.  A bag will be chosen randomly and a marble will be randomly drawn from it.  You want a white marble to be drawn.  You are told you may rearrange the marbles in earch bag in any way you like except each bag has to have some marbles and no marbles may be left out of either bag.  What is the best way to rearrange the white and black marbles so that the odds of drawing a white marble from a randomly chosen bag are the highest.

    Reward will be :powerup: I'd also throw in 100 minerals but this is a fairly easy one so I'll save the minerals for when I find a better puzzle.

    but 25 of each color into each bag, that way your chance of drawing th white marbles are 50% no matter which bag is drawn from.

    You put one white marble into one of the bags and the other 49 white into the bag with 50 blacks marbles meaning if you pick the one pag than you get it no matter what and if you pick the other bag you have a 49 out of 99 chance which is almost half.

    Fox got it right, I knew it wouldn't take long. Maybe I should do some digging and see if I cannot find a really hard one.

    Double post FTW

    Here's a very hard enigma for you guys.  I'm not sure I would have been able to answer this one on my own.  However, the answer makes perfect sense once you know it.

    For 500 minerals and :powerup: answer this enigma

    In the city I run, up north quite a ways,
    If you take the gold, you’ll get thirty days.
    You can call me Your Honor, but I’ll warn you, son --
    If you take my gold, you’ll get thirty-one.

    Edit: that is, answer this enigma with the correct answer.  I really should be careful about what I say, especially when I'm posting an enigma.
