See how fast you solve this one
 
Ok, here's another riddle for you. Like I said before, I know they belong in the jokes section, but it doesn't get the attention the Stumble Inn gets, Mod's move it if you MUST. :)

Can you figure this out?


"This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact nothing is wrong with it. It is highly unusual though, study it and think about it but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching."

As before, send me a PM if you think you have figured it out. I will reveal the answer in a few days.

Enjoy.

74 views and zero replies? Either this one is easy, hard or boring... oh well. Most likely you all have figured it out.

Huh? I'm thinking.

By jove . . . I think I've got it!

With so many views, and few replies, I may give the answer in a few minutes. Two people PM'ed me with the correct answer.

I will release the answer at 11:30 (20 min) unless someone asks me not to give it up.

(I hope this is enjoyable for someone)

For the record, AMN was VERY fast with the correct answer. and she was #1 (as normal)

I'm thinking hard and it hurts..:D:p:D

Earl 07-05-2010 04:18 PM

and the answer is???
 
So, as many of you guessed, the paragraph had no "E"'s in it. Since E is one of the most used letters in the alphabet this is rare to find.

Congrats to those who figured it out, if you didn't, don't feel bad, many people can't

E, huh? I got holes in my brain.

Dejibo 07-05-2010 04:58 PM

I blew a fuse on that one, and still didnt figure it out. You stumped me. :p
