You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth0
-
If I ask your mate over there which door leads to the City of Truth, what will he say?
Then do the opposite of whichever one they point to. I think. Assuming talking doors can point.0 -
Is the other door the door of truth?0

Every clock face made with roman numeral numbers has a very obvious but deliberate mistake, what is it? And why?0
-
My mum's growing up had IIII instead of IV, not sure why.
Maybe in case you quickly look in the mirror? IV V VI could confuse?0 -
Many a theory, some say its for symmetry, some say its because IV is what Jupiter was shortened to (its a quarter to God didnt sit well with some) and others say it was to simplify the clock making system as you would have even pairs of every symbol, so moulds etc could be half the size and doubled up0

I'm able to run, yet I will not walk
Though I have a mouth, never will I talk.
While I have a bed I'm not known to sleep
I do have a bank with no funds to keep.

IIII instead of IV for 4... - 3 theories, a French king, Louis (can't remember the number, there's too bl**dy many of Louises over there!) determined this as a matter of fashion and symmetricality, the original Romans didn't use IV as 4 but IIII as the former is too much like their god, Jupiter (IVPITER) or there was a typesetting problem whilst creating moulds for clocks! Any more theories out there?!sadiejane1981 said:sadiejane1981 said:Every clock face made with roman numeral numbers has a very obvious but deliberate mistake, what is it? And why?

IIII instead of IV. Why? Because clock makers are generally thick.0

Ask either of the doors if they are a door? If you happen be be asking the door that leads to the City of Truth it will say 'yes', if you happen to be asking the door that leads to the City of Liars it will say 'no'.sadiejane1981 said:You approach two talking doors.

You know both are doors so if the door says 'Yes' it leads to the City of Truth and if the door says 'No' then you need to go through the other door.
if this is wrong, can you just threaten them with a chainsaw?0 -
