• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hello fellas,

So I don't know what this "count" thing is about exactly (probably a new strain of the flue...) but it's proliferating around here!

Anyhow, here's the real deal:

Please don't say it if you already know the trick!

I will give a suite of numbers and I have a rule in my head. Your goal is to find that rule by proposing me numbers that could continue the suite and fit the rule. I'll tell you if it's right or not. You can also obviously propose what you think is my rule. This is a very interesting and educative exercise I've learned in my psychology class. I'll explain further why when the answer is found. Here is my suite:

2, 4, 8...

Good probability to you!

Worry not my friend, for your quest for the truth is not over yet! You must find my rule; what fits my rule is but a clue.

Seek well!

That is the riddle!

Nope, not over 'til you've found the parameters of my rule!
No clue. Don't know how you can get an odd result from even pattern unless you keep subtracting 1 as the number gets greater which is a different pattern therefore, the premise changed which deleted original premise. I'm all ears, explain.

Already willing to give up?

Remember this is not your usual suite deduction, this is a riddle. You should re-read the clues I gave in my first post and my comments.

Here's an another clue: perhaps you're not looking for the right thing and remember, "things are not always as they appear".

Don't worry, I'm not that cruel!:satisfied:

None of the negatives work, the two positives do however.
