The Ultimate Logical Puzzle

[Sev72]

I thought this was old... You ask the guard what the other guard would say...

 

[martin's a madman]

"Are you guarding a door?"

"Yes" = Heaven
"No" = Hell

This has nothing to do with your answer, but you have a Gorillaz picture and therefore you are awesome.

 

[pffh]

Which door would the other guard tell me to go through if I wanted to go to heaven.

And then you pick the other door.

 

[The_Chief]

what is the meaning of life?
heaven will say to be good
hell will say coke drugs and sex.

 

[ygetoff]

See if you can get the answer! Not many people have got this right. Can you?

There are two identical doors, one leads to Heaven, one leads to Hell. In front of each door, there is an identical guard.

You can only ask one question, to figure out which door leads to Heaven.

Small bit of information:
The one guarding Heaven always tells the truth, and the one guarding Hell always lies.

The question you ask must involve the doors or the guards.
e.g. you could not hold up a cat and ask one if it is a dog!

If no-one gets the answer after 3 days i will post it!

I would ask "Are you guarding a door?"

This would work pretty well.

 

[Chiefmon]

just ask: which one is your door and go through the one that they point at to get to heaven

 

[traceur_]

ask "which door would the other guard say is the door to heaven?"

Then take the door that neither points to.

 

[RH3INLAND.]

Ask one if they are standing in front of a door, if they say yes then it's the one telling the truth, if they say no, obviously they're the liar.

 

[curlycrouton]

This is so simple.

Ask them if they're guarding a door, as many other people have figured out.

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

Are you my mommy? Not really.

What does Heaven look like?

If he says anything other than Hawain Punch fountains and G-Man I will leave.

 

[JohnSmith]

I will ask the one gaurd if he was chuck norris and if he said yes thats heaven

But what if it was the guard to hell, then he would lie and say he was. Then you're screwed.

No because then the real chuck norris would kick his arse

this is far from the The Ultimate Logical Puzzle.
most people have heard it once in they'r lives.
this one is much better:

there are 5 pirates and 100 gold coins.
the 5 must divide the coins amongst them as they see fit.

the rules are simple.
1) one pirate choses how to divide the coins.
2) if the majority agrees, the coins are given and they walk away.(in case of a 50%/50%
split, it counts as a if they agreed on the division of coins)
3) if they do not agree, the pirate who divided the coins is killed and tossed away,
the coins are passed to the next in the chain of command and he must chose how to divide the coins(same rules apply to him as well).
4) each pirate is naturally trying to get as much coins as he possibly can.
5) the pirates are all really MIT grads, there for uber smart and will most likely find a way to do this without the needless killing of the captain of the "SS nerd herd" (in other words, the first pirate should be smart enough to divide the cash without dying if such a case is possible, if not the kill him as you see fit).

and lastly. the chain of command is known in advance. there for when a pirate kicks the bucket the next in line to get the gold. is the next in the chain of command.(as in not just a random other pirate, they all know who is the next to get the gold).


and don't forget. all the rules apply to who ever hes the gold. so you can kill every one other then the last two.(unless they both disagree on the split, and thats just retarded)

id ask them "whats the opposite of opposite" just for funsticks ^-^

actually i dont know, ill just wait your 3 days

The correct answer
take that
as in the opposite of A is B and the opposite of B is A so it ultimatly leads to being A

 

[jebussaves88]

The OP got it wrong. The one guarding heaven could be the liar. You're not to know which door is which based purely on the lying capability of the guard.

What door would the other guard point me to to get to Heaven? Then take the other one.

Is the answer.

 

[StarStruckStrumpets]

This puzzle was on Yu-Gi-OH

*looks through episodes to find the answer*

Wow that was complicated.

 

[AceDefective]

Ask if I like girls the one to hell would say no
or i would ask if i am male the one to hell would say no there solved
if that is the case if i dont know which one lies then i'd just stay in purgatory it's better then hell
