That's right everypony, it's PUZZLE time again!!!
RULES:
Okay, so these things are little riddles called "lateral thinking puzzles"!! They suggest situations that sound really weird, but make so much more sense once you explain them. Yes, YOU!!!! Your job in this fun little thread is to solve the riddle... and you have as many guesses as you like!!!
If you were just guessing, though, we'd probably be here all day. So, you can also ask an unlimited number of yes or no questions! I will answer everypony's questions with "yes", "no", or "irrelevant", irrelevant as in you're asking something that just has nothing to do with the answer, silly!
If nopony gets the answer for a while, I'll give you all a hint! I usually have at least a couple of juicy hints for every riddle, so feel free to ask for one if you're collectively stumped!
Be careful, though! These questions can be really tricky, and you often have to take a step to the side in your assumptions to set your hooves back on the right path. You gotta think laterally!
This one should hopefully hold you guys over until my forum reign is underway!
PUZZLE SIX:
Twilight once told me about this little old eatery in Canterlot called "The Nine Cowbells"!! It's quite famous, I hear, and has been around for years and years! She ate there all the time as a kid, but always wondered why there were actually ten bells hanging outside the shop!!! TEN!!!!!
So, WHY were there 10 bells?
