______21
____1211
__111221

The method used to determine the sequence is completely off-the-wall.
I doubt that much of anyone could ever determine it without help.
You're just being mean!!! http://members.roadfly.com/tite-wad/wedgie.gif
I have to go to bed... want the answer?
I know the answer, but dlingeverything could probably use a good hint from you.
If you know the answer then post it, 'cos I'm going to bed. :sleeping:
The answer is nothing without the explanation of how to get it. :wacko:
Oh well...
Just as well I checked in before bedding down then.
Answer:
The next row is 1113213211
Why?
Starting with the second line, every line describes the line before it. In writing, it is:
One One
Two Ones
One Two, One One
etc.
etc.
So the next line must describe the line before, which is 13112221.
So: One One, One Three, Two Ones, Three Twos, One One ---> 1113213211
Now I'm going to sleeep :sleeping:
grrr i thot of something like that at first but
quickly discarded it b/c that would get too complicated
during the large numbers.
Mainly i was just lookiing for patterns in the
numbers in different ways. My whole line of logic was
completely off :(
Oh well, good job of stumping me ;)
They tried to keep me away but.....ITSRIDDLETIMEBABY ! :P
For 6 months a year, I get out of bed at least 180 times each night.
Yet I manage to get 7 hours of sleep at a time.

crikey, its enough to fry your brain in here. :huh:
You do jump-ins and jump-outs as an exercise 180 times in one go, then sleep the seven hours after you're so shattered. You do that every night in the six months.
Am I close? :D
a clue? yes please, scooby doo. ;)
dont come in here too often, just reminds me of my stupidity. :blink:
can you do an easy one for me, like what day is it tomorrow? :D
@Illuminati--------Ummmm.........no. ;)
But here's a clue......I have VERY few neighbours.
@lilmiss--------hogwash ! You're as bright as they come. I know you just don't want to show up the boys. :D
You're at the Antarctic, where they have (if I remember rightly) 7 months of non-stop darkness each year.
NOW am I close? :D
tch, call that a clue? thanks riddler, but the brains just not in gear at the moment. i will be back later after a bit of chain smoking, and scratching of my chin. :D
Closer than close......BINGO ! :DQuote:

Lucy had it first, Abigail had it last, Maggie Miller had it twice until she married Billy Bastard, then she lost them both.
What is it ?
Closer than close......BINGO ! :D [/b][/quote]Quote:
