Brain Teaser Monday, March 13th
Four playing cards, one of each suit (a red heart, a red diamond, a black club, a black spade), lie in a row on a table. They are a Jack, a Queen, a King, and an Ace. Using these clues, can you determine the cards and their order?
1. The Queen is somewhere to the left of the red Jack
2. The Ace of clubs sits between two cards of different colors
3. The diamond is somewhere to the left of the heart
4. The King is not the diamond, and is not next to the Ace.

Place the digits 1 to 9 into the empty cells so that the three rows across and three columns down form correct arithmetic statements. All calculations involve only positive whole numbers and should be performed from left to right and top to bottom, ignoring mathematical order of operations. A starting hint will be provided on Thursday.

Brain Teaser Wednesday, March 15th
Starting on a letter in the longest row, spell out a 10-letter word going from letter to adjacent letter -- horizontally, vertically, diagonally -- as you use every letter in the grid once. Then, rearrange the 10-letter word into two 5-letter words that begin and end with the letters shown in rows at the bottom. What are the words?

45.6/35 ratio of acid to water?
1.30:1

Not quite. The answer will be a whole number! Start by adding both numbers in each ratio to get your ratio pair. Then find a common denominator!

16:20 or 4:5

Great job! 1k coming your way

45.6/35 ratio of acid to water?
1.30:1

Not quite. The answer will be a whole number! Start by adding both numbers in each ratio to get your ratio pair. Then find a common denominator!

Hint for Wednesday Brain Teaser:

Since the feud is rectangle, the two answer prices will have 180 degree rotational symmetry. Start by filling in the symmetrically opposite letter for each P and Q given in the grid.

Do you have more hints?

I do not unfortunately, as any more would really give away the answer

Remember that they are symmetric, meaning you will have the exact same shape twice!

Additions to HobbitAuto this week:

  White wool

This is such a great idea! Over the years I have played on so many different computers, and my last computer died on me and I never recovered anything unfortunately

The only old SFT picture I have is after I gave Fridge of Death a cosmetic update. Miss some of the old w3 events, but the news look great

Find rhymes for the words in each quartet so that the first word becomes a category and the second, third, and fourth words become specific items in that category. For example: TOWER: lazy, faster, knows --> FLOWER: daisy, aster, rose.

1. BOY: battle, mop, call

Brain Teaser Friday, March 3rd
The ratio of acid to water in three samples is 3:1 and 1:5 and 5:7. Kiara makes a mixture using equal quantities of all three samples. What is the ratio of acid to water in Kiara's mixture?

I was originally shadowjb123 and then Mojang made the mistake of giving indecisive people the ability to change their name free of charge and I've since gone by Cierinal_, Dordly, panzerkopf, ElzieDG/lzdg, Nydsmeil, iratefrog, etc etc. but I've finally settled on Pritis. You're most likely to see me in game but I do check forums on occasion . I joined sometime in summer 2011 when I was a little guy. Makes me happy to see all these old faces.

Glad you've been back Pritis! Over 10 years of commitment!

200k!!!!!!!! I'll be there

Hey all! I joined in 2013 and recently came back. I left to finish my master's degree and got married in 2021! Great to see old faces here. Miss the good old days!

It's been great to see you back around! I got married last year (2022) and am currently finishing my master's, how similar! What brought you back if I may ask?
