I've got it! First you throw hooman in the barrel, then you walk away

Eddy-B · « **Reply #26 on:** November 30, 2005, 12:32:26 PM »

i don't see how that helps..

i would like to point out that i've solved it with using.... nothing at all, besides myself; no instruments, no stick, no nothing .. and i do not remove wine from the barrel.

It may interest you to know this "trick" does not work if the barrel has a non-symmetrical shape. Hope that helps. i can't say any more

it helps remove the question entirely, lol

take a mental picture and fold it in half in your mind

Hooman · « **Reply #28 on:** November 30, 2005, 08:02:24 PM »

Maybe you should explain that a little more clearly. Folding a mental picture in half in your mind doesn't help you solve the problem.

[size=8]Why did you do that?[/size]

I don't suppose you're ever gonna try answering one of the many riddles that you've responded too?

CK9 · « **Reply #31 on:** November 30, 2005, 09:41:15 PM »

no, he's not

Hooman · « **Reply #32 on:** December 01, 2005, 05:22:03 PM »

You're not exactly helping either. <_<

I'm starting to think maybe Eddy should just post his answer.

CK9 · « **Reply #33 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:37:19 PM »

Hey, I gave it my best shot. anything else I think of would be destructive

zigzagjoe · « **Reply #34 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:43:37 PM »

i think yould want to start drinking it hooman; after a few glasses you wouldnt give a flying f*** about it (or anything else for that matter :lol: )

Hooman · « **Reply #35 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:43:41 PM »

Hmm, I thought Eddy was supposed to have posted his picture. Well, I'll give you a hint. He's hosted it somewhere on his website.

CK9 · « **Reply #36 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:44:29 PM »

...okay...

Hooman · « **Reply #37 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:50:03 PM »

With any luck, you might find or guess the url. :heh: (Probably not).

CK9 · « **Reply #38 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:51:53 PM »

Why would I WANT to see his pic?

Hooman · « **Reply #39 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:55:08 PM »

He basically emailed me a pic of his solution. Which was correct. I noticed from the URL that it was hosted somewhere on his website, but I don't remember it off hand.

I also heard Sirbomber suggested some idea that was somewhat close. But I don't see it posted, so I'm assuming it was said on IRC.

CK9 · « **Reply #40 on:** December 01, 2005, 06:58:02 PM »

or in a PM

Hooman · « **Reply #41 on:** December 01, 2005, 07:15:19 PM »

Yes fine, be picky.

I guess I should just post the link to the pic or something. Or maybe wait for Eddy to do it. (It's a picture of a "barrel", guess the extension on most pictures, and he hosted it himself). :whistle:

Eddy-B · « **Reply #42 on:** December 02, 2005, 01:42:59 AM »

i checked my logs - SOMEone downloaded the picture today .. and it wasn't me, nor hooman...

CK9 · « **Reply #43 on:** December 02, 2005, 01:44:09 AM »

does it have an IP log? If it does, match it up to the person that way

Eddy-B · « **Reply #44 on:** December 02, 2005, 01:54:11 AM »

yes it has, but i don't know who that would be.. i don't have logs of IP's & people. for what it's worth: the ip translates to *.cg.shawcable.net

CK9 · « **Reply #45 on:** December 02, 2005, 01:55:20 AM »

you mean it didn't give you a number?

the shaw sounds familiar...

Eddy-B · « **Reply #46 on:** December 02, 2005, 12:28:53 PM »

it does give a number - i just removed it, since it's only the ISP that is important.
anyway .. no replies today; so here's the picture (if someone STILL doesnt see it now <_<)

you can try this with a glass filled halfway with ... whatever you can find

CK9 · « **Reply #47 on:** December 02, 2005, 12:40:56 PM »

I know how you can do it with a can of soda, see if it will balance. If it balances, less than half full

Hooman · « **Reply #48 on:** December 02, 2005, 06:52:22 PM »

Lol. The mystery of who peeked at your answer. :ph34r:

Btw, good job on solving that riddle Eddy. And nice pic too.

Eddy-B · « **Reply #49 on:** December 03, 2005, 01:11:54 AM »

CK9: balance ? define balance
