Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 oh does it that was just me being tired
Guest Stuart_f Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 oh does it that was just me being tired Damn! I thought I was on to something...
Guest Stuart_f Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Ok here's my guess: Answer to first question about phone keypad = 0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9 = 45 Answer to question on dogs legs = 8*4 = 32 Answer to taxi question = 3*4 = 12 The word "Phone" contains "one" = 1 The word "eight" = 8 The word "three" = 3 Add them all together = 45+32+12+1+8+3 = 101 Is that anywhere close to the right answer?
Guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 The word "number" appears three times so my guess is......3?
Guest jm012a9749 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 ok, dunno if this is right but just read the hint OUTSIDE the box.... the word number appears out side the box.. so my guess is either 6, 4x number(s) and 2 actual numbers, or 15, 4 numbers + three + eight Phil
Guest w411y Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 15, 4 numbers + three + eight Phil My method too :)
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) Nope, lol i might give the answer away soon Ill say youv all got too 6:30 pm GMT Edited July 31, 2006 by mini_man
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 New Clue! You need real numbers that are numbers and not the words "number and numbers". Also think about the words and not the sums of each questions. Sam
Guest conan_troutman Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 grammatically would it not be zero as there are no numbers only words?
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 nope, sorry im probably driving you all mad.
Guest jm012a9749 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 nope, sorry im probably driving you all mad. yep ;) 4 hours and i still haven't got it :) phil
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 15 minutes till I reveal the method and answer! Hmm very surprised no one has it Sam
Guest w411y Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Be prepared for a load of: "Oh I was jsut about to put that!" "Oh I had that earlier just thought it was wrong so didn't post" Yeh you know who you are ;) :)
Guest niacin65 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 15 minutes till I reveal the method and answer! Hmm very surprised no one has it Sam the answer is 11, sum of the words eight and three
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Ok times up! After all your brainache im going to give you the answer you have been looking for. Look see The ONE in phone + The EIGHT in question 2 + The THREE in question 3 and SIX in taxis = 18! Aha! I hear you shout! I didnt see that six but you guys were definetly on the right tracks and thinking outside the box so well done to you all for putting up with this quiz :) Sam
Guest conan_troutman Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 I told you it was quizzes made by morons with totally stupid answers where in the world is the word six its written backwards who the hell rights backwards and if thats the case i protest and say it should be 19 as legs on eight gives you another one as posted previous *you think I might be a sore loser?*
Guest danwatson1974 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Quick reply but alas no sorry! EDIT: Interested to know how you got 18? Well, in light of the answer , obviously not thinking out of the box enough ;) but it was really early, and I was on the train and I had a hangover ............ 18 wheels: Each taxi has 1 x steering wheel, 4 x driving wheels ams 1 x spare wheel :) I may have been wrong, but I did it myyyyyyy waaaaaaayyyyy!
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Nooo they have to be whole words not shared. Your not aloud to share words so its 18! I said that anyway. heh heh soreeeee looser
Guest danwatson1974 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) Oh, yeah, and I will pay 35 grand to anyone who can work out the following - 'how much money do you make if you charge Edited July 31, 2006 by danwatson1974
Guest mini_man Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Lol! Well actually. It was 75p and then you get on hold and that was all that you paid each time you called, just one off 75p. Also it was actually a rapid fire round so they were gettin through calls pretty damn quick!
Guest goochy1 Posted August 13, 2006 Report Posted August 13, 2006 Blimey mini_man I've only just come across this but its been quite interesting to read everybodies views. As i was going along i couldn't get it. Perhaps you could start more off like that - drive us all mad. goochy1
