Hey, you know what I love? Being droned for a week and a half for absolutely no friggin' reason. No. That's just great.
Anyway, I'm bored, so lets play a game. Got a riddle for you. Well, I guess it's more like a logic puzzle then a riddle, but they're close enough to be the same thing. Whatever. So here it is:
Three duelists are standing off against one another. Technically, everything about each duelist seems similar: each has a gun and is the same distance apart from the others. Despite this, each duelist has a different possibility of hitting his opponents. Duelist A has a 90% chance of firing and hitting either oppoennt. Duelist B, however, only has a 60% chance of firing and hitting an opponent.
You are Duelist C. You have a 30% chance of firing and hitting either opponent. You can't run; running will have both of them automatically draw their guns on you. So you have to stay and do something. So, the question is who do you fire at in order to survive?

Date: 2010-12-06 06:58 pm (UTC)I'd have probably run though long before we got the guns out to tell you the truth. There's no point to duels, they looked cool but they were kind of dumb."

Re: [Filtered]

Re: [Filtered]
Date: 2010-12-07 05:54 am (UTC)Yeah, it's weird. Like super weird.
But I got bit by a vampire, met real Pokemon, talked with a prince from a long time ago, made friends with a psychic kid and got told about all these different worlds.
I'm in a town that loops back on itself like a Pacman game and things fix themselves.
Also, you're kind of cranky so you could be really old."

I'm not cranky!
