| OK, the barman asked for a clue about the traveller: A traveller starts a journey. For the first week he goes east. The second he goes in all directions. The third he flies up into the sky. In the fourth he comes back down. Who is the traveller? We have all met the traveller, one way or another, every day. We all need the traveller. The traveller changes over the course of his journey. I know thats not the best of clues but I dont want to make it too obvious... |

A game of chess
That was quick! Good work Potholer
Three cowboys are fighting together in a field.
The first one, John, is a good shooter, he kills his target 2/3 of the time, and miss one third of the time.
The second, Slim, is an average shooter, whose chances to kill and miss or even. The third, Bob, is a poor shooter, he only kills his target 1/3 of the time.
They look at one another in silence... sweat starts pouring down their faces...
They shoot in rounds. One shot per round. They always shoot at the best shooter but themselves. They do as many rounds as neccesary so that either they all die or only one remains alive.
Who has the most chances to survive?
