Puzzlers and Games

You have to be a rocket scientist to figure out Pokis riddles. I thought this was memory reconciliation thread. You can’t remember something if you weren’t taught it.

But then again you can always “ Google “ but there’s goes the actual teaching part off the exercise.

Sometimes the blur spoiler doesn’t work on mobile device until you make a post, then it’s hit or miss. Another thing gone wrong in the last year here.

I would probably have Serena Williams as 2 but that might be just me…

Actually I wanted to go with Margaret Court but changed my mind for someone more publicly known.

It is a Billy Goat.

The solution of my symbol-riddle now.
Many years ago I liked to solve such riddles. We had them sometimes in our TV magazine. I was 13 years old and did it many years. The last 20 years not. I thought it is nice for here and not so very hard. Now I know engineers have problems to solve it, sorry. Rocket scientists are needed, lol.

@Erithacus had the right solution. I can remember to some steps he wrote. Perfect.

I can good remember to my earlier years.
Now I can do it much faster too. Another way. Very easy.

It needs only 2 milliseconds for solving, lol. Read the letters, give them numbers, until all calculations are ok. Backtracking.

Craig, your answers were posted first. The only one about which there’s debate is the Queen Bee–and the “correct” answer(as posted on Maria Shriver’s Instagram account) is Beyonce’. So–I’m giving you the win.

No sense to go on here.
This Mario Brothers riddle is to find on many places on net. All show the same. Only Maria Shriver deleted this one row/line out of it. Now is not only one right solution, many can be.

12 + 0 + 12 + 6 = 30

You look for answers on the net ???

This is not how you play Jan’s riddles from Maria Shriver. These are exercises for memory retention. Shame shame !

Actually, Poki is correct in stating that the way Maria Shriver posted it there are many possible solutions. So, I’m glad Poki looked this one up because there was starting to be some skirmishes over the “right” answer in my very own home! I cannot find ANY answers under Maria Shriver’s thread today, which is interesting. The answers are always there, just not this time. Hmmmm!
