    ...your shadow?

    b:question

    Here's one I got from a game of mine.

    "8 people are playing a unique message game. The goal is to pass along the message to everyone in the room. As soon as the first person is told the message, the game begins. The message takes exactly one minute to pass along to another person. After the first person receives the messages, what is the minimum amount of time the message will take to get to all of the people?"

    Yeah, it's me. Don't read to much into it, though; I'm only here for myself now, killin' time and chillin' when need-be. So sue me. Tch...

    I think it's three minutes:

    First person tells another (1 min)

    Those two tell another two (2min)

    Those four tell the last four (3 min)



    If that's not it, then it could also be one minute, since the first person could just shout it out to everyone in the room at once. b:chuckle


    So is it one of those two?

    Pin-pon! ^_^

    3 minutes is correct, and your reasoning is flawless!

    1) Think of all english words that end in -gry. Hungry and angry are two such words. What is the third word in the english language that ends in gry? You use it everyday, so it's nothing obscure.

    That's a really old one, let's see if we've got people who can solve it here. Also, if you already know the answer because you saw the riddle before, don't post it, let people figure it out ;3 Feel free to pm me the answer though.

    Is the answer the word "what"?

    Alright, now for some big ones!

    1) Think of all english words that end in -gry. Hungry and angry are two such words. What is the third word in the english language that ends in gry? You use it everyday, so it's nothing obscure.

    ?
    possible answers

    i think the answer is energy because it says nothing about the order of the letters -gry

    possibly the answer is i am hungry or i am angry

    the answer is every because There are three words, ending "g," "r," and "y." The first, another word for "angry," is "fuming," which ends in "g." The second, "hungry," at least when personified, is "eager" which ends in "r." Similarly, the third word is "every," which ends in "y" and is clearly used by the word "everyone."

    or somehow the answer is language because it says what is the third word in "The English Language That Ends In Gry"

    Agree?

    I dunno, I'm just going by how '-gry' sounds. Thought it might be 'language' at first but the part in red kinda killed that answer. =/

    Sigh. I was about to put that but then you answered. STOP ANSWERING! Maybe I should just blacklist you so I don't see the answers you give when I'm trying to answer it so I can at least feel like I was the first. b:cry

    My answer is below (Please highlight):



    I have this feeling this is a wording riddle, since most of the riddles are. I'm going to go by "Each" is one of the men's name. He's the only one who took a pear. So there is still 11 left. Now let's hope my gut feeling paid off.
