the figure out what happened game

[Menotti80]

scenario #1: a person is found dead with 3 things around them: a plate, a mint and a bullet shell.

what happened?

 

you may only ask "yes or no" questions to me to help you figure out what happened. i will keep checking back to answer your questions. ask away!

 

*** for those who know the answer, please refrain from spoiling this. thanks!

 

 

edit: should have given 3 things, not only 2

[trwi7]

Poison lasagna.

[JimH5]

Did the person die from a bullet wound?

[TracyThom]

When you say mint, do you mean a place where currency is made?

 

When you say plate, do you mean an item used to make currency?

[Menotti80]

Did the person die from a bullet wound?

yes

[Menotti80]

When you say mint, do you mean a place where currency is made?

 

When you say plate, do you mean an item used to make currency?

yes, and yes. well done

 

well all we need is for someone to tie everything together, and i can go to scenario #2, which is not an easy one...

[NeedMoreFans]

Guy went into a mint, stole a plate so he could make his own money, got shot by a security guard before he got away.

[Menotti80]

correct!

 

scenario #2:

a guy goes to a restaurant. he sits down and orders dinner. after getting his food, he takes a bite. before eating another bite, he leaves the restaurant, goes home, and kills himself.

 

why?

 

 

once again, if you've heard this before or something similar, don't give away the answer!

[VeggieBadger]

I think I know this one, so I won't give it away. But I like these games. (If it's the one I'm thinking of, this could take awhile)

[Menotti80]

yeah, it will take a while. i have 2 more. one of them could take a long time as well. this one is my favorite though

[Fatter than Joey]

Was he eating one of those poisonous blowfish?

[Menotti80]

Was he eating one of those poisonous blowfish

no.lol

[cwolf2012]

Is a lighthouse involved?

[Menotti80]

No

[NeedMoreFans]

was his wife/significant other at the restaurant?

[mtrebs]

Was the guy's life so bad that he ate one bite of that food and thought "nothing will ever be better than this bite of food" so he figured he'd end it all?

 

Was the food really "to die for"?

[Menotti80]

No. In fact,he went and left the restaurant alone and nobody he knew was there

[TracyThom]

Was this a Chinese restaurant?

 

Did he discover that he just ate his own dog?

[Menotti80]

to mtrebs: no http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

to thom's questions:

- the kind of restaurant isn't important

- no http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[brewerjamie15]

Did this person see something out side the restaurant that could have contributed to suicide?

 

Had the man been contemplating suicide before going to the restaurant?

[brewerjamie15]

Was it indeed suicide?

 

Was his death caused by an accidental overdose?

[Menotti80]

to answer jamie's questions in order:

- no

 

- it is possible he had, but my answer would still be no. i guess what im trying to say is that he wasn't completely suicidal, and this one last thing set him off. what happened to this guy at this time directly caused him to go kill himself

 

- yes it was indeed suicide. it's not important how he did it.

 

- no

[brewerjamie15]

Was he facing some terminal illness?

 

Did an event occurring at the restaurant cause the suicide?

[Menotti80]

- no

 

- no

 

good questions though

[NeedMoreFans]

Was he depressed?
