    Default Riddles....

    Well, why not? Since we're so good at posting FF7 and FFX fiddles, why not just plain riddles?

    Same rules apply to this thread as the others, meaning, the person who guesses the riddle correctly (confirmed by the asker of the riddle) gets to choose a riddle of their own. If they do not wish to propose a riddle, they may simply say "pass". Have at it!

    To start us off, here we go.

    (I got this straight from the IQ challenge test). Jane is both 50th best and 50th worst in her class. How many people in her class?

    Not 50 (that would mean she is the 50th best but not worst)
    Not 42 (the answer to life the universe and everything)
    Not 100.

    Yes, 99 Rainecloud. Your go.

    Okay.

    You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. They are both identical in appearance. You are able to ask only one question to one of the doors in order to determine which door is which (you can choose which door to ask). The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?

    If you're a classic movie fan, you'll know the answer to this one.

    Ask either door which way the other door would tell you to go, and then go the opposite way.

    Well done. I love that riddle.

    I had to rewatch the scene from Labyrinth to see if you were correct.

    I'm pretty sure that is a possible answer.

    A: You ask the door of truth which door would the other door say is the door to the land of Truth
    The door of truth would point to the door of lies, because he knows it would lie.

    B: You ask the door of lies which door would the other door say is the door to the land of truth.
    The door would lie and tell them the door of truth would tell them to go into the door of lies.

    Both doors point to one of the doors, the wrong one, so they go in the opposite one. I'm not saying it's the only solution but definitely a solution. Unless I've missed something, which I'm pretty sure I didn't.

    He said it was interesting, as he had to go and check.

    In the following code, each symbol stands for one of five letters.

    ) stands for T, E, S, A, or L
    < stands for F, E, C, R, or P
    > stands for E, R, L, K, or S
    [ stands for F, S, E, D, or R
    ] stands for W, M, J, U, or Y
    ( stands for N, A, H, O, or B

    The six letter code word, <([])>, can be translated into two English words that are opposites. What are the two words?
