GAME: MindTrap

I'd get a speedo if I was you, to hide the absence of genitals "down there". https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif


Oh, and get some gloves to hide the real ones. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif

Here's the logic...

Since all boxes are marked incorrectly, if you pull a cherry from the box that is marked cherries and bananas, then that box must be the box of cherries (box 3). Therefore, the cherries/bananas must be either box 1 or 2. Since box 2 is currently marked bananas, and all boxes are marked wrong, then box 1 must be the bananas, leaving box 2 for the cherries/bananas.

Same logic would be applied if a banana was pulled from box 3. That would be the banana box, the cherries would be box 2 and the mix would be box 1.

I guess you were replying to my reply while I was doing the same. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

Moving the 2 from the end of the number to its front doubles it.

Can you find this number?

I seriously hate you man. This was a pain in the ***. I remeber this from one of my math teachers in high school. Mr. Tenzca if I'm not mistaken, he looked like Sippowitz from NYPD Blue. Anyhow back on topic to get to it I knew that the second number had to be double the last number, 2, so that made it 4. Then you just have to keep doubling to the front number untill you come out with the number above, that works. And once you get to 8 it makes sixteen and I forgot how the one carried over so that screwed me up even more. I didn't remeber exactly how or why it worked I just know it does. That and it took me a few attempts because my math was screwed up on it a few times. :redeyes:

I think that answer deserves a bonus point, for his mental anguish! :thumbs:

I agree! Btw, what kinda camaro you drive? I have an 89 GTA with a little bit of work done to it. 5.7 TPI, full dual exaust, borla mufflers, headers, ram air intake(from the fender though =/ ) Soon enough I'll end up buying the ram air hood for it and the front plenum air intake set up. Eventually I wanna pull the motor and either punch it to a 383 or just go all out and get a ligenfelter 427SC for it. The 427 is a little outta my price range at the moment though. ^_^;;

Good job.

3 points more on your climb to reach infinity.

You're going to love this one then:



If you moved the 3 at the end of a certain large number to the beginning, it would be the same as multiplying it by 3.

What is the number?


__________
1,034,482,758,620,689,655,172,413,793

Figuring this from right to left is one method:

3 x 3 + 0 = (0)9
9 x 3 + 0 = (2)7
7 x 3 + 2 = (2)3
3 x 3 + 2 = (1)1
1 x 3 + 1 = (0)4

continuing on until:

3 x 3 + 1 = (1)0
0 x 3 + 1 = (0)1
1 x 3 + 0 = (0)3

I said I started racing by driving my dad's street car when I was 16. The cars I have now I own and pay for. :thumbs:

As to adept's question: It is a really big Number! :eek2:

Actually, it was just about 7 years ago I started racing, so :butt:

BTW, I thought you didn't want to play this game. I thought you wanted to give away your points because you did not want to be seen as a part of this thread. Well, why do you keep reading and posting in this thread? Seems to me someone wants to play and just can not figure out the answers quick enough. :thumbs2:

103448275860689655172413793

It's not my apearance in the thread that bothers me. It's the fact that I am in 7th place and I haven't even tried to get any points. I feel bad for the rest of you...
