The GREAT thread of riddleness!!!

JamesU

I've got an idea, not a good one, but here goes:

I'll post a logic problem/riddle here. Whoever answers it correctly gets to post another logic problem/riddle, the person who answers that one gets to post the next and so on.

The police found a dead body in an office. It looked like a scuicide, the victim had shot himself in the head. There's a note that says to listen to the tape. There's a tape recorder on the deask, a tape inside. the police pres "play" and listen to it. they hear the man's voice- "my life is a mess, I can't take it" then they hear a gunshot. The police knew it was a murder, but how?

kinda easy. the answer is right in the paragraph

Nathaniel

He did not commit suicide somebody killed him...bec.of the recorder, who rewind it if he committed suicide.

Jimmy Snyder

The problem with this 'contest' is that anyone can post a riddle anytime they want.

Aditya

What if the person who answers doesn't post/doesn't know a riddle? Does that mean that we can post a riddle instead of him?

"...the police press "play" and listen to it..."
"...-''my life is a mess,I can't take it'' then they hear a gunshot"

The policeman must have asked himself who had turned off the tape recorder
than?

arildno

How do you know the gunshot you heard on the tape was the gunshot which killed the man?

Icebreaker

The police pressed PLAY, yet did not REWIND. If the man really did kill himself, then he couldn't have rewinded the tape for the police to listen.

someone just post one

arildno

1) Man fires a shot which is recorded on tape
2) Man stops tape and rewinds it.
3) Man kills himself with a second shot

Icebreaker

The question did not give indication that there were multiple shots fired.

arildno

The question was about how they could KNOW that a murder had been committed.
They can't..

JamesU

Yoy guys got the answer I was looking for, arildno, you have the honor of giving the next riddle

arildno

moi???
Oh dear, riddle piddle, middle..I've got to think about this..

arildno

Oh well, just to get this off my chest:

A man lives in an apartment at 10th floor, and each morning, he takes the elevator down and goes to work.
But, returning from work, he always walks the stairs rather than using the elevator.
Why is that?
