This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Lady Lakira has PMed me the correct solution. However I think she's giving the rest of you a chance to figure it out. :)
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways, it's still rock and roll to me.

You can talk all you want about theory, craft, or whatever. But in the end, it's still just new ways of looking at people playing make-believe and having a good time with their friends. Intellectualize or analyze all you want, but we've been playing the same game since we were 2 years old. We just have shinier books, spend more money, and use bigger words now.

You have no idea how much trouble I'm having *not* giving it away.  I remember this riddle from my Gifted & Talented class in junior high.  :)

You also have the correct answer. Somebody might as well post the solution, it's not like we have THAT many players trying to figure it out. :p

Did he want to be seen getting off the elevator on the floor he got off on?

Is it because he's too short to reach the top buttons?

This is correct - the riddle is solved.

The man in question is a midget and can't reach the button that will take him to the floor he wants. :)

Which of course begs the question why the hell doesn't he carry a pointing stick with him.

Or ask the lady in the lobby to push the right button for him. :p Still a fun scenario.

Maybe it's because he dresses like a furry.
