Guest gcursor Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Have you ever heard of CAPTCHA codes? Those are those strange abstract numbers/letters that you have to type in to tell a site that you're human. Then you have to type them in again because usually the first one is a "freebie" (meaning that they EXPECT you'll get that wrong)! ANYWAY over the next few days, I've started this topic and I will be showing you some of the NEW things that will be replacing CAPTCHA and will be making our lives a little easier. #1...guess how many coffee beans are in this picture and type in that number's square root http://www.flickr.com/photos/76027767@N04/6828304496/ Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 That's easy... 123,233 +/- 100 It didn't take all day to count them. I calculated the total pixels in the picture and then took the average pixels one coffee bean has and then considered the depth effect so the number comes to 123,233 +/- 100. Can't get an accurate number since I took the average number of pixels. What's next Gcursor??? Have you ever heard of CAPTCHA codes?

Guest hitoallusa Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Thank you sweetheart... I don't know what I am going to do without you~~~ Always read ALL the intructions, hito. You want the square root of 123,233. Quote
AdamSmith Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 OK, is this one of those silly... As I was going to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives. Each wife had seven sacks. Each sack had seven cats. Each cat had seven kits. Kits, cats, sacks, wives -- How many were going to St. Ives? Quote

Doesn't this riddle assume one didn't overtake a slow moving caravan of kits, cats, sacks, wives & husband? Hmmm? Quote
Members lookin Posted March 13, 2012 Members Posted March 13, 2012 OK, I'll bite. 2802, including the sacks and the riddler himself. Although, as I prefer to think of only animate things as actually going somewhere, I'd sooner stick with 2753. Whichever, if each of them would make a post under my name, I'd be $500 richer. Quote
