The game's very simple. You just have to post a riddle, and the person who posts next should try answering it, and should post their own riddle.

Example:
Why do birds fly South in winter?

Is the answer:

4, 3, and 3?

4*3*3=36

4*3*3 is 36 but so is 6*6*1,9*4*1 etc

y is that the answer??? think... there are 3 statements and each signifies something...

I just gave the hint to the 1st one (as 36 can be broken up into many ways) so Lyra couldnt solve it, the next two statement made her find the answer... :)

That's right, Marc!

Nice one, Ercule! :P

4*3*3 is not right.. :P

Ok Hints:

36 can be split in 4*3*3 , 9*4*1, 9*2*2, 6*6*1,6*3*3,18*2*1

Now as i said (the sum is same as opposite house) and yet cannot be solved

but if u add the factors all are unique except 9,2,2 & 6,6,1 which sums to 13 (so still lyra was unable)

but i mentioned the elder son (so the elder son is unique) not a twin (hence not 6,6,1)

Answer: 9*2*2
