CCCC: Weird changes: "Office opening, chief essentially set back one minute. Call back after one minute." (13)
Wanted to put "call back" at the start to imitate Sid's clue but my motivation disappeared quickly

Q: The Ultimate Liars (With Math And Directions)

HelloWorldYet again, you were stranded in a desert island, this time with 9 trolls. Each troll shares a langauge with words for yes and no, the four cardinal directions, a number system between base 10 and 60 (but you don't know precisely what) and the four basic operations (+ - * /). You are handed a piec...

Q: Doesn't saying "at least 99 of you have green eyes" give new information?

Hitarth VyasThe Logic Puzzle I have found a catch in the solution of this logic puzzle. Provided that you are not allowed to give the prisoners any new information, the statement "at least 99 of you have green eyes" does give them new information. To give 'new information' can be defined as when the statemen...

Q: Bullets in russian roulette

CharlieI see a similar question in Russian roulette. Now if instead of two bullets being placed side by side, two bullets are randomly put in the chamber. Your opponent played the first and he was alive after the first trigger pull. You are given the option whether to spin the barrel. Should you spin th...
