You have the correct answer. I was hoping to paraphrase it enough to keep people guessing.

I guess my disguise wasn't good enough.

Excellent job!

Now we'll need a riddle from you though.

It was someone else who said it was set in medieval times that made me think of it.

ok heres a quick one

you are walking home one night when you get lost in the woods, you come across two young girls standing at a fork in the road, one will always tell you the truth, one will always lie. you can ask one question to one girl to ensure you you get home.
what is the question and how do you make sure you get home safe.

Ah, thats a good one. I heard it in the movie Labyrinth with david bowie. I think the girl in the movie got it wrong though, she picked the wrong door, and fell into a pit of helping hands.


ETA: I just read the answer to that one, and I still don't get it.

No problem, anything I can do to help out, I will.



Now I will just throw another one in the mix. I changed the wording to make it harder to google.

A dude was in court awaiting his sentencing, and the judge told him,"You can make one statement. If the statement is true, I'll sentence you to four years in jail. If the statement is false, I'll sentence you to six years in jail."

After the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free.

What did the man say?

If memory serves the man tells the judge that he will sentence him to 6 years in prison.

You are both right!! He told the judge he would sentence him to 6 years in prison, then he pooed in the court room and the judge let him go!!

JK! NYK, your right.

OZ, your waaaay off.

Hey I got the poo bit right....lol

But to be honest...im having a dumbass moment and I dont understand how he got off?

reply to post by schism85


I thought I remembered that right.

Do you remember the reasoning behind that though? I only remember the answer itself.

I do remember it always seemed rather confusing though.

Don't cry. I had the same problem when I read this riddle. Heres an explained answer from someone on Yahoo.

He said, "You'll sentence me to six years in prison." If it was true, then the judge would have to make it false by sentencing him to four years. If it was false, then he would have to give him six years, which would make it true. Rather than contradict his own word, the judge set the man free.
