Inspired by this puzzle I decided to make something similar. To warm up, I made something simple. It follows the rules set up by @Dmihawk except for the size:

Can you help me figure out what word this riddle is about?
"Not spun, or simply woven
My skin as smooth as a mirror
You stain my face, contort my body
I can hold the greatest power
And pass it with a glance
Yet you are prone to cast me off
Without a second thought

Can you paint every number from 1 to 8 with two colours, such that there are no distinct numbers $a, b, c$ of the same colour with $a+b=c$? For example, you cannot have 2, 3 and 5 of the same colour since $2+3=5$.
Good luck!
Can you paint every number from 1 to 23 with three colours, such that there are no distinct numbers $𝑎,𝑏,𝑐$ of the same colour with $𝑎+𝑏=𝑐$? For example, you cannot have 2, 3 and 5 of the same colour since 2+3=5. You may need to use a computer to solve this.

Alice picks a subset of it, say $A \subseteq S$.
Bob picks a subset of it, say $B \subseteq A$.

If I wanted to describe it as a minimum problem, where I want to identify the minimum value of the constant for a certain matrix order, how should I do it?
Time to get back to Puzzling! Hangman game backward #12 - guess what the question was:
fill in "a" - In some area it proves to be a big problem to kids / teens or even adults these day, which potentially does not exists thirty something years ago.
fill in "e" - 2, 4 and 6 are the common numbe...
My brother showed me the following puzzle from some type of (IQ?) quiz game on his phone:
1 + 2 = 21
2 + 3 = 36
3 + 4 = 43
4 + 5 = ??
I am quite sure this was the original question asked.
I pondered it for a while and had a few guesses, but none were accepted as "Correct."

I've been discussing the logic puzzle where 100 logicians, all wearing blue hats, are trapped in a room and told: they can leave when a bell rings if they know they know they are wearing a blue hat, they are all perfect logicians and at least one of them is wearing a blue hat. The bell rings eve...
