>>83686787
The money under its foot?
>>83686823
And the fact that its not on the stand
>>83686787
The rest of the armors are right handed.
>>83686823
>>83686847
Also left handed, and thusly clearly sinister.
>>83686823
That's right! How could the money have possibly gotten under the foot of the heavy suit of armor?
Next, coming up!
>>83686847
under the foot meant if moved. so yeah.
Now post the hot horny cat.
>>83686884
the real question is why these idiot cops and detective would finger a man in a suit of armor, wielding a sword, when none of them are armed with guns or tazers. Nevermind something that would actually penetrate armor.
>>83686884
radio waves would take much longer then even the 5 million years light takes to travel back and forth. thus communication both ways is impossible. also the device clearly has no input. keyboard, etc, for actual communication either.
>>83686884
because if they are 5 million light years away it would take 10 million years for a message to come and go?
>>83686981
I second this senpai.
>>83686884
>how can he tell
what about just try the crown?
>>83686883
i see what you did there
>>83686981
>>83686989
>>83686994
That's right. Boy, you guys got that one quickly... sure I'm not on /sci/???
Alright, next one is ready!
>>83687033
those bananas are clearly unripe. four days my ass
>>83687033
That fruit is fresh as fuck.
>>83687033
Green bananas should be yellow by now if he bought them four days ago.
>>83687033
That fruit is way too freshAlso, Shady doesn't strike me as the healthy eater type
>>83687033
Bananas wouldn't be green anymore after 4 days.
>>83687068
>>83687088
>>83687097
>>83687105
>>83687111
You guys are awesome. Solving these before I can make them. Good job, guys!
Next one coming.
>>83687068
>>83687097
really shit banana would stay green for more than 4 days. It's probably the answer but that's a big stretch.
Or maybe they add that the apples would make them ripe fast? still a stretch though.
>>83687144
Slicks foot prints are overtop the doc's
>>83687144
Look at the footprints.
Smith went the longer way.
>>83687144
That smarmy fuck's footprints are on top of the paleontologist's
>>83687144
because FILTHY LYING HUMANS
>>83686787
>he bought the book
Good work.
I wish I wasn't unemployed so that I could do the same.
>>83687144
you can tell from the overlapping prints that slick tailed the doc from the digsite. also, weimaraner's prints turn the other way at the point where slick made a grab for the skull and the struggle ensued.
>>83687175
>>83687177
>>83687183
Excellently done, guys!
Here's the next one.
>>83687273
The bear has a four-ring binder, the paper only has 3 holes.
>>83687273
3 holes
>>83687273
three holes in his paper, four rings in his binder
gg lol
>>83687273
His binder has four rings but the paper he's holding only has 3 holes, none of which seem to be in positions where the four rings would hold it anyways.
>>83687303
>>83687304
>>83687305
>>83687317
Great job. That one wasn't so hard.
>>83687346
Cashews, they take a long time to go bad.
>>83687346
Clearly they must take the sugar. Thus will surely let them survive for at least a month.
>>83687220
Wow that is a great thread. I am glad you posted that image. But come on, man. The book was only $8.99. Nobody's got it that badly!
>>83687346
Cashews, nuts are filling and least likely to spoil. Plus it's the crate on top, so if they load that in and make haste for the boat/island in the distance they may actually make it to relative safety.
>>83687346
Coconuts, they have water inside
>>83687400
Eating sugar? Telling lies?
>>83687415
They're at sea so they're going to be surrounded by water dummy.
>>83687442
>drinking seawater
>>83687442
That's salt-water, genius, you can't survive off that. But regardless, if they take the coconuts they may not have the tools to actually open them to eat. Though if they did that would be a better option than cashews.
>>83687415
Correct! You can't drink seawater, so you'll need the coconuts for drinkable water.
>>83687481

Yup! Good job, guys.
Okay guys, this is a Cassandra Cat one but please keep it in your pants, lol.
>>83687536
That wax melted a while ago.
>>83687536
The wax has fully melted, she's had it lit for an hour or two, depending on what kind of candle.
>>83687536
the candlewax has turned into liquid
I still wanna fuck the cat though
>>83687536
The candles have partially melted.Also why the hell are you skateboarding indoors. Get your shit together
>>83687536
The candles look like they've been burning for a while now.

Next one is ready!
>>83687144
>>83687175
>>83687177
>>83687183
these don't actually prove anything.
Slick could have found the skull, at the digsight off page.
and the Dr. could have come to see the claim, picked up and stolen the skull, walking off.
At which point Slick followed after him, to get it back from the thief.
>>83687620
Use the fishing rod to cast the rope to the other side of the gorge.
>>83686884
If you look closely at the wires at the radio you'll notice both ends are conected to it, not the battery
>>83687620
Tie the rope to the end of the fishing line and throw the line across
>>83687620
Wrap it to the eagle
>>83687620
catch a fish, tie the rope to it, and let the eagle carry it over
>>83687620
hook the rope with the fishing rod and do some fly fishing
also where can i fuck the cat
>>83687681
>>83687667
>>83687659
Yup, that's right! Good job, guys. Everyone else, good guesses.
And we're ready for number 10.
>>83687756
Go get some new clothes in the boutique so the guy doesn't recognize you.
>>83687756
Send it with a pizza?
>>83687536
She's wearing her dressing gown so she must have been pretty quick to do all those things and change her clothes.
>>83687756
Send the documents as pizza
>>83687756
order a pizza delivered to mutts home and put the document inside the pizzabox
or give it to the yellow rat since fox is the one being tailed

All good answers. Good job, guys. Wow, I love how these Slylock threads bring everyone together for a good time for an hour or so. I have to go now, but I'll be back tomorrow probably around the same time for some more fun. The book has over 100 mysteries so we still have a lot to go through before we're done.
Thanks for hanging out guys. See you!
>>83687853
DELETE THIS DAN BACKSLIDE!
>>83687853
Slylock doesn't have time bitches.
Just mystery.
>>83687948
nooo!!
>>83687936
>But then the paper wold get greasy and unreadable.
nope
did it once with a hostage situation on my country unless your going with """"american"""" pizza then yeah
>>83687407
>The book was only $8.99. Nobody's got it that badly!
You'd be surprised.
>>83687948
While it's not exactly /co/, I've got a large book of Sherlock Holmes puzzles that, though they lack the visual flare of the comics, could help us pass the time until anon comes back. What say you guys?
>>83687407
>The book was only $8.99.
thats 3 months work here
>>83687853
>>83687346
Coconuts float, last longer, and have water.
You know who Skylocke Fox and Max Mouse remind me of?and that's awesome that they do
>>83688415
Slylock/Sam and Max team up when?
>>83687456
>>83687470
>>83687481
Don't you know the poem? Water, water everywhere, so let's all have a drink!
>>83688562
HOMER, NO!!!!I often quote that version of the poem whenever applicable in day to day life
>>83688315
sure
Here's a riddle:
Who is the better spy fox?
>>83688690
Slylock isn't a spy. He's a detective.
>>83688690
Everyone knows Secret Squirrel is the best animal spy.
>>83687680
Well done, you are now qualified to create a point and click adventure game.
>>83688730
True, but like anon said Skylocke is a detective.
Super Secret Secret Squirrel was an awesome show.

>>83688648
Alright, then.
Here's one from early on in the book, it should be easy enough for you guys to solves.
Also note all of these passages are written from Watson's perspective, so when I say 'I", I don't mean me.
"Logic is paramount, Waston." Sherlock Holmes was in a thoughtful mood, pacing slowly up and down the length of the sitting room, pipe firmly in hand. "The better able you are to pick apart a problem in your mind and evaulate all of the ramifications it encompasses, the stronger will be your deductive reasoning."
"Of course," I said.
"So, then. Let us say that I know of a particular fellow. Today is a singular occasion, for two days ago, he was 25 years of age, but next year, he will be 28. How is such a thing possible?"
>>83688730
>secret squirrel packs a Wildey
sweet
>>83688835
He was born on a leap year
>>83688835
Sherlock Holmes is speaking on January 1st. The man's birthday is on December 31st.
>>83688835
His birthday is New Years Eve.
>>83688925
>>83688926
>>83689009
"Our chap's birthday is New Year's Eve, Watson, and our singular day is January 1st. Two days ago, on December 30th, he was 25. The next day, he attained 26. Today is the start of a new year, and at the end of this year he will become 27. At the end of the following year, therefore, he will be 28."
And the next puzzle:
"My dear Watson, will you understand my meaning when I inform you that an entirely hypothetical acquaintance of mine, Alfie, told me about a bus journey he had recently made."
"I see," I said. "This is by way of puzzle."
"Quite so. Alfie told me that his bus was quite busy, and he was initially unable to seat himself. His fortune changed at the half-way mark however, and he finally got the chance to take the weight off his feet. When he had just one half as far to go again to his destination as the distance for which he had been seated, an infirm gentleman boarded the bus, and Alfie generously gave up his place for the man. At the end of his journey, he decided to calculate the proportion for which he had managed to avoid standing. Can you tell me what it was?"
>>83689225
A quarter of his journey.
>>83689225
One quarter of the trip
>>83689225
Was he sitting 1/4 of the time?
>>83689308
>>83689316
>>83689317
"Alfie sat only in the second half of the journey. In that section, he had to get up when he had half as far to go as he had already traveled - or, in other words, he had sat for two parts of that half of the journey, with one remaining. So he was seated for 2/3 of the second half of the journey - or 1/3 of the whole thing."
The next:
"If I gave you a pair of compasses," Holmes said to me, "You would of course know how to construct a circle."
"Or course," I said, feeling slightly put out that such a basic matter would even be mentioned.
"I mean no slight, my dear Watson. However, I do wonder if you know how to construct and oval with just one sweep of the pencil."
>>83687009
do you really want to take that risk?
>>83689397
>construct and oval with just one sweep of the pencil
Place both compass points on a flat surface, place a loop of string, longer than twice the distnce bewteen the points, around the points, place pencil in the loop and just move pencil around the points keeping it as far as possible from those points. Otherwise, without string one needs a special compass that allows the pencil to slide up and down one arm and use compasses at an angle. Possible but awkward.
>>83689881
Clever. However the book put it this way:
Once Holmes showed me the trick, I realized that it was a matter of great simplicity. All you need to do is place your paper upon a cylindrical surface. The different in height will form the oval for you.
I've got to go soon, so this will be the last puzzle for now:
I was reading quietly one evening in Baker Street when Holmes put down his violin and turned to me.
"I have another lexical trial for you, if you are of a mind to accept." said he.
"Or course," I replied.
"Capital. Ponder then upon the words 'cabbaged' and 'fabaceae', the latter being of leguminous fame. What oddness do they share, and why might I remark upon it?"
>>83687033
>georgia opossum
Clever.
>>83687346
>>83687481
I would have chosen cashews because coconuts and bananas float
Does anyone know if original OP ever came back with more of these? I think I gathered them from 3 threads, after that I haven't seen anything and I quite enjoyed them
>>83690014
>'cabbaged' and 'fabaceae'
cabbaged uses 6 letters from the first 7 in the alphabet; fabaceae uses 5 letters from the first 6 in the alphabet? That's not really odd enough though.
Each has letters from the first 7 in the alphabet with one : a to g.
>>83686787
Wouldn't solving this riddle only prove that we are only like 9 at the least.
>>83690014
The can both be spelled with the notes on a music scale?
>>83691063
It proves that we enjoy solving puzzles.
>>83691018
>>83691094
"Consisting soley of as they do of the first seven letters of the alphabet - they are in fact the longest words in English to do so - both cabbaged and and fabaceae are words that can be played as a sequence of notes upon a musical instrument."

> radio waves would take much longer then even the 5 million years light takes to travel back and forth. thus communication both ways is impossible.
The aliens could have been closer to the earth. They didn't have to be on their home planet when they received his message.
> also the device clearly has no input. keyboard, etc, for actual communication either.
He could have hard-coded the message.
The real answer to >>83686884 is "Because he is not currently controlling the minds and actions of all Earth creatures."
