Title: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Janet_Girl on November 29, 2009, 05:02:00 AM
I have a riddle.  You get 20 questions, that I will answer "Yes" or "No".

There is a man lying dead in the middle of the desert, with a pack on his back.  How did the man died?

I have no prize for the correct answer just an "At a girl/boy".

Sorry, but I can only answer "Yes" or "No".  But be aware that they count towards the twenty questions.

Are the injuries consistent with falling from a great height?

I remember one.

There's a man, dead by hanging by his tie. The door is locked and the ground is soaked with water. How did he die?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes

Did he have fish?

ok, so I guess it's my turn.  Ummm--ok, a guy is found in a cabin in the middle of the woods.  He is completely sealed in the cabin, so no one was able to come in or go out.  The guy is dead, obviously.  Why?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Janet_Girl on December 06, 2009, 11:18:00 PM
Tie guy.  Mafia killing.  He was placed on a block of ice and then his tie was used as a noose.  "No Mr. Bond. I expect you to Die"

Cabin Guy.  Was there a gun found near the body?



Blessed Be

No. It was a horrifically violent death.
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes

Bow?  Or an animal?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes

Neither.  The guy died in the cabin strapped tightly into a chair.
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Silver on December 06, 2009, 11:29:57 PM
Could he move his arms?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: jenga on December 06, 2009, 11:32:34 PM
yes.  In fact, only his torso was secured to the seat.
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Janet_Girl on December 06, 2009, 11:34:02 PM
Was his wrists or neck slit?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Silver on December 06, 2009, 11:34:17 PM
Were there any blades inside the cabin?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: jenga on December 06, 2009, 11:36:24 PM
No. But the cabin was so small that there was room only for the seat.
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes
Post by: Janet_Girl on December 06, 2009, 11:40:53 PM
Was he a pilot?
Title: Re: Sherlock Holmes

The walls of the cabin are mostly made of glass....

An easy one.  A man is found in the high desert.  He has drowned.  How?

Well, that scenario is not all that uncommon, actually. It's called a flash flood. Hiking in slot canyons during the rainy season is a good way to kill yourself. You either drown or die from trauma. See Edward Abbey's descriptions in Desert Solitaire and elsewhere.

The dog has something to do with it. They were not poisoned.
They were found in a shallow pool of water, on a rug. The table next to them had been overturned.

A complete explanation to fit the facts is needed.

I've already given you too much :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

OK longwinded wrong answer coming up.

The table had an ice sculpture on it, a rather large one at that. The dog got thirsty and jumped onto the table to get a drink from the melting sculpture. The table overturned and the ice sculpture knocked out the 2 lovebirds. The ice melted and drowned the loving couple, leaving them in a shallow pool made shallower by a thirsty dog and a thirsty rug.


Oh well It has all the facts as I see them.

This should be easy:

One snowy night, Sherlock Holmes was in his house sitting by a fire. All of a sudden a snowball came crashing through his window, breaking it.

Holmes got up and looked out the window just in time to see three neighborhood kids who were brothers run around a corner. Their names were John Crimson, Mark Crimson and Paul Crimson.

The next day Holmes got a note on his door that read "? Crimson. He broke your window."

Which of the three Crimson brothers should Sherlock Holmes question about the incident?

Post by: jenga on December 08, 2009, 11:32:29 AM
He should question"mark" crimson, no?
