Suddenly, everybody is frozen in time except for you. One minute later, you find yourself in a cubical room without openings of any kind. The room is well illuminated, yet you can't tell what the source of light is.     A deep voice addresses you: "I am your mysterious captor. You were brought here for my amusement. I am not allowed to discuss my unique technology. I will just say that at all times I know everything what goes on inside the room. I will let you go, but first there is a test.   There are no spherical objects at your disposal. But if you see the sphere within one hour, I will give you the $100 gift certificate and return you to the grocery store. If not, you'll experience severe pain caused by an energy beam before I let you go empty handed." « Last Edit: Oct 6th, 2013, 5:26am by alien2 » IP Logged pex Uberpuzzler     Gender: Posts: 880 Re: Freeze     « Reply #1 on: Aug 31st, 2013, 10:43am » Quote Modify Spin a coin?

Actually, your unexpected answer regarding tears is pretty good. I guess you have a reason to cry. After all, you are a married man.
