Dark Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 This has nothing to do with the poem. The poem says absolutely nothing about A's and B's and 16 people and a counter and DNA swipes... and a C dictator. This was based off of the poem because the poem had two roads. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Exactly, and by basing it off the poem you've killed it. xDAnyway, what is there to discuss with your 'theory'? It seems that even if I attempted to challenge it, you'd bring in a whole new logic and make it impossible for me to win. What's the point in that? It's Polaris' argument in this thread that's made me not bother challenging it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 You people complicate it. No, you cannot go around the woods. No, you cannot make your own road. No, the counter does not work with fractions. No, you may not enter the road after reaching the village. No, you cannot break the counter. Et cetera.

He [b']must[/b] walk through one of the roads fully, and he must walk through the road with the lowest counter. Are the 2 counters at the same elevation from sea-level? =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, the statement is still false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 The sky's color is dependent on the wavelength it's refracting or whatever, for the record. To claim it's blue is a lie in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 There could be infinite to merely two roads depending on what your choice of definition was. And let's not forget the fraction stuff and all those rules you added afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
