GAME: MindTrap

[Stalemate]

Miss Patience is babysitting ten children.

She has a jar with only ten crackers in it.

All the children want to have a cracker, but they also want Miss Patience to leave one cracker in the jar.

Without 'cracking' herself, how is Miss Patience able to give each child a cracker and still leave one in the jar?



__________
Miss Patience simply gave nine of the children a cracker, and the tenth child received the jar with the last cracker in it.

Hence the reason I didn't say anything. Although you would probably dock a point if it had been me.

I think you should dock a point for that little wise-crack Adept........!!!

(I need all the help I can get) :butt:

If you can add that in with the answers right off the bat, we'll avoid having to split up 1 pt for the answer and 1 pt for the explanatino afterwards.

I always scribble it out on paper, and then just slam my answer in frist, hoping to be the first to get the right answer.....I'll start typing my math along with original answer, I didn't realize not showing your work could cost_ya points!

Yeah... I thought about removing that rule, but I still fnid it makes sense - especially on questions where guesses can be made.

1 pt for answer or explanation alone (from different players even), 3 pts for complete answer.

[3fingersalute]

Yup.

3 pts.

That seemed to easy.............I was thinking there had to be something more tricky that I was missing.

While the political fervor is still expanding...


There have been many amendments in the U.S. Constitution during the last 100 years. One of the most controversial items regards the transfer of power should one of the heads of state die while in office.

If the Vice-President of the United States, and the Speaker of the house of representatives should die while in office, who then becomes President?



__________
The President is still President.
