Use four 0s to make 24

(0!+0!+0!+0!)!=24

The first page of this thread had some links to some puzzle sites, like Conceptis, so I thought I'd add my own, for no reason at all.

A Cleverly-Titled Logic Puzzle Blog!

. . . Yeah. Carry on, then.

There's a word that's pluralised by adding an A to the start. What is it?

Anyone else notice this? any more similarities?

Angel Gamer's thread reminded me of another TV show that was on years ago called Push, Nevada. If you can look past the involvement of Ben Affleck, it was cool in that each episode, there was a code word to find, with clues hidden throughout. There was also the opportunity to win a cash prize. Unfortunately, it was canceled after a few episodes, so the remaining clues were all given at once during a football game commercial break.

Did anyone here get involved with Perplex City? It was a cool Alternate Reality Game played partly online and partly via puzzle trading cards. They were brilliant - some of the puzzle cards involved smell, some involved turning images into sound files, some involved decrypting ciphers, some used blacklight and some were even printed with heat-reactive ink. The arg finished years ago, but I still need to complete my collection...

I think it's "yes" and "ayes".

Anyway, I thought I'd tell you about my incredible magical power. I can throw a ping pong ball so that it travels a short distance, comes to a complete stop, and then reverses its direction and returns to my hand. I don't bounce it against anything, or alter the ball in any way. How do I do it?

By throwing it straight upwards.

Bamse: Yep, that's it.

Okay, how about this: a while back I worked on a construction site where there was a lot of employee theft. A friend of mine was implicated, and the security guards were told to keep an extra close eye on him. Every night he'd pass through the security checks with a wheelbarrow filled with discarded electrical wires, offcuts of scrap lumber and chunks of concrete. The guards checked the contents every day, but they never found anything of value. What was my friend stealing?

The random items in the wheelbarrow/the wheelbarrow itself.

Alf Fly · 09/23/2010, 02:14 pm

RingmasterJ5: Yep, he was stealing wheelbarrows.

Okay, I think it's about Dang Time I resurrected this thread.

A man makes a bet with his blind friend. He says that he is going to give the blind man a glass with ice cubes in it. The bet is that the other man will leave the room and will try to sneak back into the room to fill his glass with ginger ale. If the blind man hears the slightest noise inside the room, he will send the other man back out into the hall. If the blind man can hold off his friend for an hour, then he will win the bet. If his friend can slip the blind man the ginger ale, he will win.

An hour passes and the clock strikes an hour. the blind man raises his glass and is surprised to find that after an hour of hearing nothing, his glass is somehow filled with ginger ale. His friend tells him to pay up, but the blind man refuses. "I know you cheated, and I know how," said the blind man.

How did the friend cheat?

A group of policeman found a hanged on a tree. He was dead. there was a poodle of water underneath him. How did the man hang himself if the branch on witch he was tied to was 4 meters from the ground?

The poodle killed him and then made it look like he hanged himself.

He climbed up the tree, tied the rope around his neck and dropped from the branch.

Grim. :/

It was to high, so he must have been standing on something, but there was nothing there except the poodle of water. Think it trough...

He got a giant block of ice and stood on it until it melted?

No one answered this yet? It's pretty obvious:

The ice cubes were made of ginger ale
