Is the answer 360000p^2x^2?

EDIT: I didn't read this post:

You will require some other software, yeah.

You win!

Fun puzzle, isn't it?
I'll give the rest of you a chance to solve it too. I'll post the solution tomorrow, for those that are still stumped.

NeatNit · 06/20/2010, 04:16 am

I'll post the next one then!

Really easy.
There is a note. It reads:

Quote:

1. There is exactly one lie on this note.
2. There are exactly two lies on this note.
3. There are exactly three lies on this note.
4. There are exactly four lies on this note.
5. There are exactly five lies on this note.
6. There are exactly six lies on this note.
7. There are exactly seven lies on this note.
8. There are exactly eight lies on this note.
9. There are exactly nine lies on this note.
10. There are exactly ten lies on this note.
11. There are exactly 11 lies on this note.
12. There are exactly 12 lies on this note.
13. There are exactly 13 lies on this note.
14. There are exactly 14 lies on this note.
15. There are exactly 15 lies on this note.
16. There are exactly 16 lies on this note.
17. There are exactly 17 lies on this note.
18. There are exactly 18 lies on this note.
19. There are exactly 19 lies on this note.
20. There are exactly 20 lies on this note.

How many of these are true, and which ones?

there are 2 that are true and they are number 1 and number 19

Really? I would have said just number 19.

EDIT: so what, the safe thing was just about reposting the picture with text before and after it?

NeatNit · 06/20/2010, 04:37 am

How is 1 true?

prizna · 06/20/2010, 04:42 am

1 is true because the word lie appears in that paragraph once, I looked at it a different way:

The word lie appears once so there is 1 lie on the note, the word lies appears 19 times so there are 19 lies on the note

Avistew · 06/20/2010, 04:48 am

Ah. You mean the word "lie". I just figured since they're mutually exclusive only one was true, and it had to be "number of sentences" - 1, that is 19.

what difference does that make? its talking about the whole note!

also, 19 is true

It does make a difference if you interpret it to mean "the word "lie" appears once in this note" and "the word "lies" appears 19 times in this note". Which, to be fair, is the kind of "trick" that's common in riddles.

of course! then 1 and 19 both work!

prizna · 06/20/2010, 04:57 am

yay I kinda win

NeatNit · 06/20/2010, 05:58 am

lol, I didn't think of that at all

Gman5852 · 06/20/2010, 06:58 am

ok so the 1 and 19 i guess is the answer
but i still dont get the safe puzzle all you had to do was repost it.

NeatNit · 06/20/2010, 07:23 am

When you see the solution, you'll know how I won

I can see the answer but not how to open it properly.

Harald B · 06/20/2010, 09:48 am

Hm, the answer presumably has to do with "beep.mid" then. That said I still can't seem to open it properly with either text editors or media players.
