| The Safe ($1 Mill Prize) | Started by: Tribes on Oct 03, '07 20:23 |
|
Apul faces the crowd after retrieving the paper he had just given to Tribes from his sleeping hand The answer to the combo is 193 - 119 - 593! Let me tell you how I came to this conclusion, my fellow mafiosos. At first I needed to get my self in the right state of mind. I tore the paper in half I used the top portion with all the numbers to roll a big fatty. I smoked it. Once I was in an enlightend state of mind it all became clear. The letters of: Jura Erssrevat gb gur ynfg, Ybbx gb FvgreO equated to "when reffering to the last, look to siterb" then the letters: none mother Ree stated one more three. knowing the clue stated it is a 3 number lock the numbers of the birth and death all made sense. Since when your in this state of mind you think of odd things as death and re-birth, not to mention everything gets smooshed together.Including the birth and death dates of SiterB where I was told to look! Adding a three to the end like I was instructed to do, at least thats what I thought the clue was stating, the three digit lock combos developed into 3 different 3 digit numbers. What clarity I received when smoking the FATTY. Apul turns, lifts himself upon the safe to sit and wait patiently for Tribes to awaken to give him his reward |

Apul stands up with a revilation, it seems the drugs haven't yet wore off You told me that before the mathematician passed on he was trying to get the square root of 36, which I replied to you was 6, I think everyone but the mathematician knew that. However, when you replied that 3/3 equals one...I got a bit confused. You see I find you to be a fairly smart man and I know that you would knwo that the square root was infact 6. this leads me to a conclusion that you might be giving clues to the combo to this here safe. having said that and in conjunction with my already stated response that the 3 has to go at the end, the combo to that there safe is: 6-1-3 6 = the square root of 36 spoken first 1 = 3/3, spoken second 3 = Broken down code leaving at the end of the three digits. sits and prays that the gonga gods did him well |

Rhett looks up from his scribbling and over to Apul who seems very excited about what he believes to be the correct combination. You know, you and I have had very similar thinking regarding much of this, but I believe you have made a mistake somewhere along the way. He looks over his figures once again before pocketing his notebook. I don't think that one will work. |

Tribes looks at Apul_Madeek-Auod and sighs as he turns the combination "you talk as if I put this safe hear.." Pulling down on the handle he grins and turns to Apul_Madeek-Auod "Sorry, but its not opening." |

Rhett steps in line behind Apul and waits for his turn to open the safe. He checks his notebook once again, ensuring that his calculations are correct. If it's alright, I'd like to have a try at it. |

Tribes shoves Apul_Madeek-Auod out of the way "I think you have had enough tries for a bit, let Mr. Rhett have a chance" He then motions to Rhett |

Thank you. Rhett steps forward and looks at the safe for a moment and then looks back at his notebook, flipping to the page where he had left off. See, I also found that the series of zeros and ones could only mean that the combination would be better found by a drunk, so I decided to place some telephone calls to associates in Las Vegas, New Orleans, and Chicago. Needless to say, they were pleased that I was sending them to bars instead of down to the docks. The gentleman I sent to New Orleans discovered a mathematical problem that, when solved, provided the number four. My man in Las Vegas gave me the number seven. He then made a wise crack about how he was glad to be awake that day in third grade when his math teacher went over mean, median, and mode. Then, the fellow in Chicago explained that the square root of thirty-six is six. He pauses for a second and ensures that the numbers are in the correct sequence. Deciding that the are, he continues. This gave me the combination 4-7-6. Again, he pauses (dramatically, of course). But alas it could not be that simple. You see, Mr SiterB--who will unfortunately die in 1959 and is now a young child--left us the clue that one more three should be applied to the last digit of the combination. This has brought me to the conclusion that the combination is 4-7-9. |

Scratches his head.. I believe the young man tried to spit out something along these lines: "I do believe I have solved this blockbuster of a brainteaser but I feel that my hard-fought efforts should be worthy of a larger bounty." I could be wrong though... |

Tribes shrugs and turns around to the lock, thinking that there is no possible way that this combination could work. Aftere spinning the lock 3 times, he moves his hand down, though it refuses to bugde. "sorry, its not working." |
