|

Decides my new CEF name, cant be anything rude, racist or against CEF rules.
Number one
Just recently, a boy in Washington had his brother murdered in a tragic incident. Set on finding the murderer, he goes around his giant house to interrogate everyone. Realize now that this boy's family is rich, so they were so extravagent that they bought a spherical mansion.
The boy goes to his sister's room and asks her if she knows who murdered his brother. She's playing with Barbie's and she shakes her head.
He goes to his parents watching TV and asks them if they knew who murdered his brother. They seem quite shocked and say no.
He goes to the maid sweeping the corners of the mansion and asks her. She quietly mumbles no and starts crying.
After going around and asking who murdered his brother, the boy goes outside and asks some gang members if they know who murdered his brother. They almost attack him, but they calm down and say no.
The boy finally goes to a bowling alley and asks a couple of elderly men if they knew who murdered his brother. They patted him on the back and said no.
Being a bit disgruntled, the boy slumps back home and goes to bed and starts thinking. After a couple hours, the boy suddenly wakes up and realizes who murdered his brother. Who did it?
Number 2
You stand at a fork in the road. Next to each of the two forks, there stands a guard. You know the following things: 1. One path leads to Paradise, the other to Death. From where you stand, you cannot distinguish between the two paths. Worse, once you start down a path, you cannot turn back. 2. One of the two guards always tells the truth. The other guard always lies. Unfortunately, it is impossible for you to distinguish between the two guards.
You have permission to ask one guard one question to ascertain which path leads to Paradise. Remember that you do not know which guard you're asking -- the truth-teller or the liar -- and that this single question determines whether you live or die. The question is: What one question asked of one guard guarantees that you are led onto the path to Paradise, regardless of which guard you happen to ask?
Both relatively easy if you think about it...

First one I presume is the maid, sweeping corner in a spherical mansion?
Second one you ask them what the other one would say and then do the opposite.

Ok, didn't read spherical. In any case, it doesn't she says anything about the corners herself, so technically she is not lying... Not to mension that if the house is divided into rooms (like it, presumably, is), then there can be corners... Right? :S
Trucido, you got the second one. D'oh.

Number 1: The boy did it because he had his brother murdered. The maid is also suspicious as there are no corners in a sphere...
Number 2: You ask one if he was the other which one would he tell you to go down. You know that this is the wrong one so you go down the other way.
New Name: iRelinquish
Edit, I see that they have already been worked out, oh well...
