Re: Zoccer is here !
Antonio, Google seems to gain much praise for direction people here, and the members here don't mind in the least.
If you are inclined to post problems of your own (or ones you would like to pas on) check out the section under the FAQ link. Then if you have difficulties raise the issue in the General Discussion forum, someone will provide an answer.
Welcome aboard. |

I can't get it
I've been stuck on a stupid puzzle that my little sister had for a home work problem and she never gave me the answer. I wanted to post it on this site to see if anyone can figure it out. I've been trying for a few years and still can't get it. I'm not even sure if its possible but here it goes. Imma try to explain it as well as I can.
There are 3 houses. House (A), house (B) and house (C). And 3 building. A (Water) building, a (gas) building and a (electric) building. You have to give each house gas, electricity and water. Each house has to have its own lines coming from each building, Without crossing lines, going threw houses or connecting the lines.
Thanx...I hope some one can get this |

Re: Zoccer is here !
Hi Jessica.
Firstly can I direct you to tiffany's thread, currently about halfway down the New Users Forum, it you give you some advice as how you can post to this site. It needs to be read in conjunction with the FAQ section accessed from the FAQ link just below where you login.
As for posting and answering puzzles in the forums, we don't like doing that since we have a system which works well for that purpose. However, may I save you the time and effort by not posting that here; it is a well-known impossibility.
Hope to see you making regular visits here to comment on puzzles and to maybe post some of your own. |

Yes although we probably wouldn't let it through, but if we did, you might find out a common solution is to tunnel underground. |

Re: Zoccer is here !
Other "trick" solutions include
1) Building a bridge;
2) Passing through a vertex or one of the houses;
3) Taking a pipeline off of the paper and on to a second piece (or the other side) and back again at a different point
4) Drawing the diagram on a "torus" (do-nut shape) |

Re: Zoccer is here !
Vernon! #4! Now this is not really a trick, it would work in some "space station" scenarios!! |
