I see no change in my karma,nice try though  8)
EDIT:Oops i received my karma now :)
Anyway i guess by some rule i should post some riddle so here it is.
Cannibals caught explorer.
They told him to say something, if it's true we'll bake him and eat him, and if it's false we'll boil him and eat him. Can The explorer somehow survive?



btw did any of you try the Japanese IQ test they give for job application(10 mins).
Yep, to say something what they cant prove as false or true.

Just a note;

The one who gets caught using Google is gonna be eliminated from the riddles and all his points (if he has any) will be taken away.

So he says "You'll boil me and eat me". Now they can't boil and eat him, because he'd be right, and can't bake him, because he'd be wrong.

I love how this japanese game is actually in japanese, and doesn't explain shit :D

Nevermind, found the rules by trial and error, and somehow made it :D

Next one:

Thy epic quest:
Find the right number. Consider it a password or whatever, if that helps.

Restrictions:
Number must not violate any of following rules:

  • The number is made of 6 different digits.
  • Even and odd digits alternate, including zero (which in this case counts as an even number).
  • The (absolute value of) difference  between two adjacent digits is always greater than one.
  • The first two digits (as one number) as well as the two middle digits (as one number) are a multiple of the last two digits (as one number).

Scoring:
There's more than one correct answer. I'd say, one point per number found, but no more than one per player. Give other people a chance  too ;)

 ^ Any issues with last part?

Can you clarify the 4.
I understand it like this if the first two digits represented as one number and the two middle digits can be divided by the last two digits?
Anyway i probably won't do it today so if anyone wants to get points go fast.

There's grand total of 5 numbers that fit given criteria, which potentially gives 5 points.

Simple reminder.
These are digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
These are numbers: 10, 65, 123456

4th point means you grop six digits as 3 pairs of two digits, each being a two digit number. Then, you have to ensure that first two numners are multiply of last one.

Example:
583612 - >583612

Now, first two numbers (red and orange one) both have to be a multiply of third one (green).
In this example, 36 is multiply of 12, however 58 isn't, so number is incorrect (even if first 3 criteria are met).
