He had won the race, but someone else was given the winners trophy. Why? IP Logged BNC Uberpuzzler     Gender: Posts: 1732 Re: No Reward   « Reply #1 on: Oct 18th, 2003, 3:37pm » Quote Modify 1. His blood test showd he used illegal rugs. 2. The race winner was whoever got 2nd. 3. He was that guy (I don't know how they're called) that runs at the beginning if a race to help keep a fast pace. He was supposed to quit the race after a short time, but felt good, kept running, and actually won. Unfortunatly, he was not registered as a contestant, so could not be the winner trophy's recepient. 4. Bruno is a dog. « Last Edit: Oct 18th, 2003, 3:40pm by BNC » IP Logged How about supercalifragilisticexpialidociouspuzzler [Towr, 2007] Icarus wu::riddles Moderator Uberpuzzler Boldly going where even angels fear to tread.     Gender: Posts: 4863 Re: No Reward   « Reply #2 on: Oct 18th, 2003, 6:33pm » Quote Modify BNC - "That guy" is a "pacesetter".   My answer was a variation of your 4th: Bruno is a horse. His owner is given the trophy. IP Logged "Pi goes on and on and on ... And e is just as cursed. I wonder: Which is larger When their digits are reversed?

Bruno is a rabbit, the race is for dogs and Bruno crosses the finish line first.     IP Logged They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. <Ben Franklin> maryl Guest Re: No Reward   « Reply #5 on: Oct 25th, 2003, 11:48am » Quote Modify Remove Sorry I'm so late getting back on this one Speaker, I liked your solution, never thought of that.
