Everyday's Riddle thread
Post some riddles and people have to guess them - quite easy.
Rules:
- they have to have a logical and comprehensible solution
- no shitposting (I'd at least appreciate a minimum)
- attempts at an answer have to be put in a spoiler
- solutions (by the riddle author and any else) have to be marked as such and put in a spoiler
Let's start with a simple one:
[i]Suppose you had 8 billiard balls, and one of them was slightly heavier, but the only way to tell was by putting it on a scale against another. You can use the scale only two times to find the heavier ball. How do you do it?[/i]

9 RisposteI just picked up "The Riddle of Scheherazade and Other" so I have lots of riddles. I got it from my local library :D It's especially useful for anyone looking to get into computer science. Here's a paraphrasing of #20 "What Color?" Three boys visit a farmer and the farmer says there's a mule out back and it's either brown, black, or gray. Each of the boys throws in a guess and the farmer says "at least one of you is right and at least one of you is wrong." Boy #1 guesses that the mule isn't black Boy #2 guesses that the mule is either brown or gray Boy #3 guesses that the mule is brown So what color is the mule?
