    tweak, i know your riddle. truth is i heard it in a different form.

    answer: he was cheating at cards. bicycle stands for the card brand.

    the other form: a man was found dead with 53 bicycles. the police automatically knew that he had cheated in poker, and there for got killed. how did they know?

    Re: Brain teaser / puzzle corner

    Lol Hi remy, nice to see I've been missed. In truth nowadays I mostly just look at the big news because I'm either gaming or doing homework during my awake hours. However I do occasionally look at the smaller insignificant posts.

    I might post up a puzzle at some point thats less... personalised and potentially easier to get.

    hmm i'm probably not even going to take a crack at it without a hint. or recognition that someone's on the right track. it's just way too random

    Re: Brain teaser / puzzle corner

    Before I even start on tweak's, I need to at least know that if it's a logical series or are we looking at the first letters of something. Either one would take a lot of time and thought, I don't feel like going on a chase without some kind of slightest aim. It's just too random.

    H, F, S, S, ?,?,?... for instance, I just came up with that one now and it makes perfect sense.

    Re: Brain teaser / puzzle corner

    yes it is logical. all i did was took a exsisting puzzle and cjhanged it slightly so it wouldent show up on google (as i do with all my puzzles)

    for exapmle if you typed in abcde x4 = edcba the answer to that would of showed up but i changed it to qwert so it wouldent hehe

    Hint #1 the letters do not stand for anything.
