here is another:
2 chess grandmasters play 8 games. Niether of them loses any of the games and there were no draws. How is this possible?
Notes to consider(If you cant get the answer here is a few hints):
-The games where all finnished/complete
-n ...[text shortened]... loss
-niether player has a tie
-what possible outcomes are there other then a tie and a loss?
Originally posted by SJ247 I think there would be only 9 other people, hence 18 feet, plus his own, or maybe another person and 4 dogs, or himself and five three-legged dogs...many possibilities.
edit: oopsie. what I meant to say is what the person before me said, OR himself and five dogs, or himself, another person, and SIX three-legged dogs.
My math was off.
Also note, dogs may be replaced with sheep, cows, goats, any standard farm animal.

You'd better be careful though, comments like that will set you up for a good lambasting by some of those who take offense to friendly banter in the oh-so-serious puzzles forum.
Originally posted by SJ247 No, hands on! I am rather enjoying our frequent games, Mr. T is an excellent chess player.
Just be careful, my dear. Mr T. is not who he appears to be.
Be wary of any suggestions you may receive and try not to let the conversation stray onto the subject of trousers. Let him win and you should be safe. Do NOT reply to his private messages and ignore all links to certain websites. Indulge his enthusiasm for trains and finish your games as quickly as possible.

I'll speak to you soon and make sure you're OK.
So you think next month's face to face game is a bad idea?
