View Full Version : Measure your intelligence - frogs game samer 29th June 2006, 03:34 AM Exchange the positions of brown and green frogs, If your IQ is above 50, you can fig it out in less than 3 mins. for me I did it in 5 Samer SteelMaiden 29th June 2006, 01:40 PM well, I guess that I don't have an IQ above 50. I did it in a little less than 5, but couldn't remember exactly what I did. LOL! Al Rosen 29th June 2006, 01:46 PM I didn't time it, but it didn't seem close to three minutes. I guess, I must be a genius.:lmao: Justin 29th June 2006, 01:50 PM 1:36 Could have been faster but the frogs don't move as fast as I can click on them. Kool, was a nice distraction ScottK 29th June 2006, 03:48 PM took me over 5 but then I was able to repeat it. did you notice the it never works if you do 2 slides (vs hops) in a row? In fact if you write the solution using S for slide and H for hop, you get a 15 letter palindrome?

SteelMaiden 29th June 2006, 04:03 PM I didn't time it, but it didn't seem close to three minutes. I guess, I must be a genius.:lmao: But, we already knew that, didn't we?;) ScottK 29th June 2006, 04:06 PM Sit on a potato pan, Otis. Swap for a pair of paws? Jim Wynne 29th June 2006, 04:11 PM Swap for a pair of paws? What about the "i" in "pair"? ScottK 29th June 2006, 04:25 PM What about the "i" in "pair"? D'oh!:bonk: Al Rosen 29th June 2006, 04:34 PM But, we already knew that, didn't we?;)Steel, I'm a legend in my own mind. Wes Bucey 29th June 2006, 05:56 PM 15 moves? Can it be done in less? If the rocks are numbered 1 through 7, my clicks were 3,5,6,4,2,1,3,5,7,6,4,2,3,5,4 Would a solution for 8 frogs and 9 rocks be similar? I may go crazy with pennies and dimes on a piece of paper with circles to see if there is a "system" to attack this kind of problem, regardless of the number of coins and spaces. I was always such a klutz with those two dimensional number pads and cube puzzles, I am stunned to find a solution to this.

I worked through all the possible moves in a tree format. I will admit, it took me quite a bit longer than the 5 minutes. I am intrigued by how they did the graphics. It shows that it is an Adobe Macromedia flash player. Wes R. Dave Dunn 30th June 2006, 01:39 PM Including one bad start, it took me about 45 seconds, but then I love this sort of puzzle. |
