   [Balls]

Dear Puzzle Up Contenders,

In order to clarify the meaning, a minor change is done in the question text. The updated text may be seen on the question page.

Best wishes,

The Puzzle Up Team

   the subjects gets easyer and easyer

   [Two Odd Balls]

This is the most difficult problem so far. Assume after a lot of juggling balls in my head I find a protocol that can deal with, say, 26 balls. In order to prove that one cannot handle 27 balls one would need a computer. There is a theoretical upper bound, though.

   [Rope Triangles] nice question

   [Rope Triangles] A Note is added to the question

Dear Puzzle Up Contenders,

In order to clarify the meaning, the following note is added to the question:

"Note: The triangle with sides (a, b, c) is not different from the triangle (a, c, b) or any other combination."

We wish you all the best.

   [Six Bars] Amendment in the question

In order to clarify the expression in the question, we decided to make an amendment in the text.

The word "edges" is changed to "vertices" and the relevant sentence now reads "You realize that all of the vertices of this hexagon is on a circle with a radius less than 12 units."

We wish good luck to all Puzzle Up contenders.

   [Three Dice]

Wow!

   [Answer Key] Nothing wrong sir

There is nothing wrong in the problem, and it is not so easy, either.
Hope you think carefully.

Voldemort - August 10, 2007 - 15:37
   [Answer Key] Is it wrong?

Either the problem is wrong, or it is extremely easy.
