    #9: the 2 euro tip is not from the 3 euros they got back, but included in the 27 euro amount they paid since they each got back 1 euro. so the qn of where is the other 1 euro is irrelevant

    ^haha... kidding la..

    anyway..

    #6: kinda complicated.. dunno if can explain clearly:
    let sausgaes be S. divide into 3 sets.
    Step 1 - weigh set 1 and 2
    If balance, set 3 has the funny S, set 1 and 2 becomes control, meaning the normal ones.
    Step 2 - split set 3 into 2 groups (A & B) of 2 each. weight grp A against 1 from the grp B plus 1 control.
    if balance, funny S is the other one from grp B.
    Step 3 - if off balance, weigh the 2 in grp A against each other
    if balance, funny S is the chosen one from grp B. if off balance, the heavier or lighter one in grp A, depending on result from step 2, will be the funny S. (if grp A was heavier in step 2, funny S is heavier and vice versa.

    From Step 1
    If not balance, split set 1 into 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d and set 2 into 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d. (assume set 1 is heavier)
    Step 2 - weigh 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b against 2c plus 3 controls
    i)if balance, funny S is 1c, 1d or 2d. Step 3 will be to weigh 1c against 1d. the heavier one is the funny S. if balanced, 2d is the funny S.

    ii)if not balance, funny S is either 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b or 2c.
    1) if the 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b side is still heavier, funny S can be either 1a, 1b or 2c. Step3 is to weigh 1a against 1b. the heavier one is the funny S. if balanced, 2c is the funny S.
    2) if the 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b side is lighter, must be 2a or 2b. Step 3 weigh to find which is lighter.

    You should disqualify question 6 because that answer is on the forum. This was discuss on the forum last week.

    #7 - Easy, lets number the dots from top left to bottom right like the telephone pad.

    Start with a line through 2, 5, 8
    from 8 back to 5
    another line through 4, 5, 6
    from 6 back to 5
    another line through 1, 5, 9
    from 9 back to 5
    another line through 3, 5, 7

    and you're done and connecting all 9 points with 4 lines without ever picking up your pencil.

    correct although it was hard to understand your explanation :p but also they way you use the word funny sausage lol :D

    there is a way to connect the dots :D
    maybe you're so bored that you will write down those lyrics lol

    about #6, ye I know, I was the one who asked it :D but it was more about that people wouldn't be so lazy to search the answer on this forum

    about #7, maybe I should re-phrase my #7, you are not allowed to go back on the same line twice:p

    ETA> Number the dots 1-9 from left to right then top to bottom:

    Connect 2 and 3 (horizontal line), then extend the line a bit more rightwards to connect 6 and 8 (diagonal line) and extend THAT line a bit left and downwards, and connect 1-4-7 with it, and turn another corner, connect 5 and 9 in a diagonal line.

    123
    456
    789

    Connect the lines in order of 2-3, 6-8, 1-4-7, and 1-5-9.

    You are asking murderer right? It's xmichelly since there's no mail on Sunday.

    It's a female pig, that fat one.

    EDIT: Oh crap! Hiake is now faster than I am because I was fiddling with the chinese characters!! >.<


    Oh gosh!!!! You know, the first name that popped into my mind was 'Hiake' as I thought I'd read it somewhere on this board but I thought Chi Man would mostly quote a famous philosopher or character and not a board member for this Ultimate Challenge and if it wasn't Hiake it looks like something that Dr. House would have said. :D (man, I was so close!!! lol)

    You don't cut the diamonds; just weight them and divide them between the three persons with the amount of portions you wanted to divide. (most diamonds aren't in the same shape and structure/density anyway.)

    xmichelly was the murderer because there's no mail delivery on a Sunday so there was no mail to get.
    -rolleyes

    The fat piggy is the mother of the thin piggy.

    ^Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!! It's already hard enough for me to stay away of the Heroes/Prison Break/Desperate Housewives threads, let alone a House thread with spoilers! (I've been catching a bit up with the House series since the new episodes of Prison Break hasn't started yet over here)


    They came from space oh they don’t come from here
    These are the space people, they are from a different planet , space people,
    they are out of dessert, they’re from out outer space, oh space people,
    space people, space people

    I was outside -one day- in my back door and I saw these peeps come down on my lawn, they said we are not from here, we are space people, we are not dessert because we are from space, ohhhhh, space people, space people, space people.

    -------------------------------------------------------------
    What all I do for some points lol! :p
    (nah, was waiting for a dowload to finish and had some minutes to kill...I should be sleeping right now)
