Lateral Thinking Puzzle 6

Okay, so I came up with one of my own. It may be lame or too easy…I don’t know. Anyway, would y’all like to do the community thing again or would you each like to email me separately for questions/answers and see who can solve it in the least amount of questions?

After I get a few replies leaning one direction, I’ll do that.

***UPDATE***

Community it is.

A woman sits down in her chair and looks out the window. Water begins to trickle down her face and then she is in darkness.

            Community is fun. If we get it right away we can always email you so we don’t ruin it for everyone else.

            Your kidding feels an awful lot like when people are mean. For the most part.

          2. adobery’s avatar

            It’s reached the point where I don’t know if you know I’m truly kidding and I don’t know if you’re kidding. So I want to say I was truly kidding.

            I know. We’re cool. I was kidding too.

    Is the water trickling down her face her tears?

    Is the type of chair relevant?
    Does something happen to the window?
    Is the source of light relevant?
    Is the window the source of light? Is it the only source of light in the room?
    Is the source of the water relevant?

    Does the room get dark?
    (Or does she stop seeing?)

    Is the chair a recliner?
    Is it a shower chair (as in a chair that can be used for showering, often by elderly or disabled people)?

    Is she a convicted criminal?

    1. Is there anyone in the room with her?
    a. Does this person help her sit down?
    2. Does she see a person through the window?

    So… electric chair?

    I just want to put this out there for anyone who is thinking otherwise: there is no bad blood between me and Novak. I have got my jabs in and poked fun on the boards and the video, but that’s all it is.

    If I poke fun at you or jump on a joke opportunity, that’s all it is. If I’m ever crossing a line or keep up a joke for too long, I hope people will let me know. Cause you know more is coming. There isn’t anyone here I have bad blood with.

    Except you, Kelly. You’re an ahole and you know why.

      Way over the line.

      Kelly has no idea why he’s an ahole.

    The lights went out because of the electrocution?
    Or that just meant she died?
    Or do executions get bags over their heads so that witnesses don’t have to see burning flesh?
    (Not really part of the challenge, just clarification.)

      The convict was seated in an electric chair and looking out the window at the observers. The water trickle was from the water/salt soaked sponge being applied to the top of her head. Then a black shroud was placed over her head, putting her in darkness.

      Why in the world did you ask if the person was a convict? I mean, it pretty much solved the game, but how did you get there?

        Well “then all went black” sounds awfully fatal. When does sitting in a chair lead to death? When they’re electric. Rest of the details fit that story. I thought that maybe that was a red-herring interpretation.

          I maybe should have gone the way I original thought and instead of water/darkness just shared “looked out the window” and several people were staring at her.

        2. mbnovak’s avatar

          This. I figured death of some sort too.

    I’ve got another In and Out if people are around today and interested.

    I’d also like to start stumping for a new games of werewolf and diplomacy. For diplomacy, I think Andy might be the key… he was an awesome mod. I think he could play and mod, if he was interested.

    For werewolf, since there’s so many retired players… would one of them be willing to mod, so we have a little easier time getting more players?
