I remember this one! A candle! EDIT: DANGIT SILVER! I did not see any other messages when I posted this ;_;
they dont grow though, they might not do anything though. also, when the candle is really old, there is nothing left, which is less than anything else.
A man is traveling to a town and comes to a fork in the road. If he goes left, he goes to the liars' village. If he goes right, he then goes to the village of truths - which is where he wants to go. However, he does not know which way is which. He doesn't have time to go both routes, so he approaches a stranger who is standing in the middle of the fork. The stranger says he may only ask 3 questions and he will answer them. The man asks, "Are you from the village of truths?" The stranger says, "Yes!" However, the man is still facing a dilemma: If the stranger was from the village of truths he can only tell the truth, but if he was from the village of liars, he would say he was from the village of truth. So then he asks the stranger, "Are you telling the truth?" The stranger says, "Yes!" But sadly this leaves the man in the same position as before.
I got this one! He asks the stranger, which way do you come from? If the man was from the liars village, he would have said the truth way. If he was from the truth village, he would have said the truth way also. Either way, the man knows the way to the truth village. Am I right?
