Mango got it right.

1. A completely black horse jumped over a tower and landed on a small man, who then disappeared. In what situation could this be possible?

2. Duke Maverick worked for a packaging company. One day, Duke received four separate orders and accidentally mixed up the addresses, so he applied the address labels at random. What is the probability that exactly three packages were correctly labeled?

3. Can you translate the following into a sentence?

1 0 0 2 0 4 1 8 0


Have fun.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

1) Chess

2) 0%, its impossible to get the first 3 right without also getting the 4th right.

3) Googled the answer, and I understand why it is what it is, but its just dumb IMO. Doesn't make a ton of sense.

Yes to # 1 and 2 your right.

#3 I ought naught to owe for I ate nothing. (I agree it is strange.)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#1
Four men sat down to play,
They played all night 'til break of day.
They played for gold and not for fun
Weith separate scores for everyone.
When they came to square accounts,
They all had made quite fair amounts.
Can you the paradox explain,
If no one lost, how could all gain?

Same as the chess answer I'd say.
