No more hints please.



begging doesn't work on elves.

~Render~

Rob W. Oakley said...

And nor should elves beg...

;)

~Rob

Render MoonArrow said...

What?


I don't beg!

Render MoonArrow said...

you guys are giving up to easily! THINK. anyway I'm glad you guys are stumped. being mysterious and annoying is fun. I have achieved my goal. Render

Anonymous said...

No I was saying the quetion is "How many gates are there?" I know there are 2 gates so I could ask any guard how many gates there are and find out which one is which by the guards answer then I could ask further questions concerning which gate is the right one and such!

JC

Rob W. Oakley said...

You can only ask ONE question!

The object is to find the ONE question that will reveal the Gate of freedom...

Keep in mind, however, that this particular question will only unveil the doors...

And as a result, you will never know which guard is which...

So the guards in question are not important...

what IS important is your life...

Freedom

or certain death?

Well, of course, the object of the riddle is to find the door of freedom!

Don't give up! We know the answerer is hiding somewhere... ;)

~Rob

The Pookie said...

I'VE GOT IT!!! I think...

Okay, ask a guard, it doesn't matter which one, to open their gate. This way you can see which it is after the guard opens it!!!!!

Although.... "Open the gate" isn't exactly a question...

I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!!!!

Rob W. Oakley said...

I am say this bitterly...

This is not the answer... :(

forgive me for not being very specific...

The only way you can tell which door is which is by opening the door and walking through it...

Sometimes we don't know what will happen; however, we have to make choices in life and when a door is opened before us we have to walk through it faithfully (given, of course, this door was placed by God, but then again, how can you tell sometimes?) Sometimes there is more than one door and either one could lead to prosperity or the utter depths of a bending and twisting Labyrinth...

And sometimes there are guides, which can either be truthful in there counsel or deceitful. but how can you tell in this case?

I guess you just have to ask the right questions; sometimes you can only ask one question, and most of the time that question can't be found...

But than agian... What if you COULD ask more than one questoin, or ask one question in way that you get two answeres...Hmmm... that's a thought...

Ask one questoin to get two asnweres...

Kind of like that whole double negitive one positive deal ;)

~Rob

Render MoonArrow said...

I'm not telling and nether is Robby.

He gave his word of honor not to tell unless I asked him to and I haven't yet

Anonymous said...

Robby, you've succeeded in confounding the matter even more! I'm more confused than ever!

Just give us the answer please!

~MJ~

Kakiedoo said...

Yeah, Robby. all you did was make it more confusing!

I was Pooh too!

I've now lost interest in the riddle. I don't really care if I ever find out the answer. I will spend no more time trying to figure it out.

~MJ~

Rob W. Oakley said...

How Sad...

Render MoonArrow said...

very sad.

so much for her intelligence.

what if this was a real life situation?

Render

~what a way to destroy everyones ambition~

The Pookie said...

I don't have the time or the will to sit down and think of the answer.... PLEASE TELL US!!!

Anonymous said...

Brooke: Seriously. I totally agree.

Ryan: Its been over a week! Nobody cares anymore! The excitement and apprehension have worn off.

~MJ~

Render MoonArrow said...

Thats two out of four people that want to see the answer.

do you think this is the best way to get the answer out in the open?

so far two have given up but until Jc and Kakiedoo give up as well(sp?) I will not give the answer and nether will Robert.

~Render~

Render MoonArrow said...

The whole point is to make you think and since it is so hard for yall....

regrettably I'll give the answer when Jc and Kakiedoo give up!!!



If that makes you feel better but always remember that if you ask for the easy way it will haunt you to the end. theoretically this is a test of life will you take it head on or find the easy way. The long rocky path to freedom or the smooth and easy way to slavery of the thought of destroying the fact that you could of thought harder.

well I leave that in your thoughts to think of.


~Render~

Render MoonArrow said...

Hey rob back me up on this we need your Hyper intelligence.

Tell them that sometimes the easy way is the wrong way.

Anonymous said...

Hey, we DID think!! We have no more time to think!

mj

Rob W. Oakley said...

Well, I can honestly say that Ryan and I didn't figure it out after awhile; however, we were very young at the time...

Yes we old timers think logically all the time!

logically, if we knew that the only way to know which door led to freedom was to ask a question, and we were only aloud to ask one question to one guard, then wouldn't it be in our best interest to ask a question that would pertain to both of them?

I mean we have several things to our advantage! For example: We know that one tells lies and one always tells the truth. So to gain knowledge of the unknown, we must ask (the) question that will reveal the answer you all have been looking for.

For goodness sakes! I've given you all the answer twice now! and you still can't figure it out!

"If I ask the other guard something what would he say?"

If I were to ask the truthful one this question, the answer would be a lie!

Why?

Think about it!

He MUST tell the truth

the lier lied!

so that is the truth

In relation, if I were to ask the lier this question, it would also be a lie because he is indeed a lier...

This is the last time I am giving this hint.

Use this knowledge to find the door!

~Rob

Anonymous said...

Every question you ask is going to get the same answer no matter which guard you ask! How does that help us?

~MJ~

Render MoonArrow said...

it helps allot

Rob W. Oakley said...

Hmmm...

I don't know Missy

If every answer is going to be the same then you no longer have to worry about it being a lie or the truth but rather you know it will always be a lie...

I don't know... Just maybe you could ask about the DOOR!

and feel rather confident about the answer...

Hmmm...

You might want to try that!

Forgive my sarcasm; you can punch me later if you like but this is just too much fun!

Kakiedoo said...

Every time you give us a hint I get even more confused.

Kakiedoo

Oh in the meantime you could put a new post Render!

Rob W. Oakley said...

No new post till you guys figure this out!

Come on Kakiedoo! I know that you know that I know that you know that the answer is deep down in side waiting to come out!

You can do it!

The answer is staring you in the face!
