@ Bemjamin:
Haha. Seriously. This riddle has an actual answer. And although you're right, 15 cents American currency is pretty musch worthless, that's not the answer 'm looking for.

@Bigadd: Then lets try to NOT let that happen to this one!

...but I am the ferret king!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! tremble before my ferret minions!

A hole.

Quote: "1,2,5,10,20"


Is it 1,2,5,10,20,50,100,200,500 ie. it's a sequence of 1,2,5 that is multiplied by 10 each cycle?

I'm not actually a Kiwi, I just randomly thought it up one day.

you are right kiwi but for the wrong reason


A man walks up to you and says - "everything I say to you is a lie."
Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

At the risk of being even more a party pooper on here than I already am, I'm going to lock this. We already have a lot of games, and another logic thread "How smart are you?" that's gone too far to close yet. Do we really need all these games here?
