I just had an idea for a holiday rulebreaker, but realized it would probably be solved too quickly. Explain. | ||

Did the rule have something to do with woubit's puzzle? | ||

holiday...Christmas? Hanukkah (Chanukah?) Kwanzaa? Any other holidays relevant? | ||

holiday...Christmas? This. Hanukkah (Chanukah?) You can spell it however you like; there are at least a half-dozen transliterations. Kwanzaa? Any other holidays relevant? No. | ||

Would the puzzle have been a CA rulebreaker? A regular one? Would the rule have involved anything other than the post content? Any other puzzles relevant? | ||

Would the rule itself have been about Christmas? Would the CA have been if a certain word was in the question? A certain letter? If a certain word was not in the question? A certain letter? | ||

Would the rule have depended on the length of the post? The number of the questions in the post? | ||

"A puzzle that wouldn't work"...a rulebreaker with no rule? My rulebreaker that Kalira solved? | ||

Would the rule have depended on the length of the sentence? Would all questions have been CA? Would the topic of the question have been relevant to the rule? Would the rule have involved whether or not the question was an actual question? A statement? | ||

Would the rule have been solved quickly if someone had asked the typical "A? B? C? ... Z?" questions? | ||

Would all the one-letter questions have had the same answer? Have been CA? | ||

Would the rule have depended on the first letter of the question? The last letter? Would any of the one-letter questions have been CA? If so, [LTPF list of letters]? | ||

Would the number of consonants been relevant? The number of vowels? | ||

New member Username: Jenburdoo Post Number: 4277 Registered: 5-2003 |
Would the number of consonants been relevant? The number, no. If there were no consonants at all, the answer would be "yes." The number of vowels? | ||

Would it have been relevant if there were no letters at all in the question? No vowels? No numbers? Nothing at all? Only symbols? | ||

Would there have been any answers other than "Yes," "No," and "CA"? Or "Yope" (etc)? | ||

Would the answer have been Yes every time there was no L? Got it. ***** SPOILER ***** I would have answered yes whenever a question was asked which did not contain the letter N, until someone figured out the solution ("Noel"). The trouble is that one of the first questions would likely be: A? B? C? D? etc ... |
