A Giant Puzzle (Part 2)
I sorted out a bunch of shoes the other day and as such, when I came to the shirts, to put them in their correct position I felt pretty confident. I have to act fast because time is running out. Can you figure out the order of the shirts from the clues I was given?
The shirts are the same colors as the shoes - purple, red, blue, yellow, brown, orange, and green.
1. The Yellow Shirt is not by the Orange Shirt.
2. The two colors that start with "b" are not next to each other.
3. The Red Shirt is directly between two of the colors with a second letter of "r".
4. The Orange Shirt is the second to the left.
5. The Blue Shirt is next to the Orange Shirt.
6. Either the red, purple, or both are somewhere to the right of the Brown Shirt.
7. The Yellow Shirt is next to the Green Shirt.
8. The Green Shirt is 2 Shirts away from the Orange Shirt (1 in between).

another good one. nice job!
I liked that one! thanks
The statement "3. The Red Shirt is directly between two of the colors with a second letter of "r"."
confused me.
I assumed by "directly between" you meant equidistant from each of the outside colors. If you just mean between, please just say between.

This was fun! I had to write it down, but I got it correct!!
that was a waste of my time!!
Nice brain teaser.
Shouldn't it say that orange is second FROM the left?
These are my favorite kind!! keep them coming!!
that was really hard, i thought it was purple, brown, red, orange, blue, green. yellow
liked it, jamie.
that was good, i totaly missed that there was a purple shirt, next time i'll read it a little closer
Well done
Nice, but clue 8 is not necessary (unless you interpret "Directly between" differently than I did). Thanks for the fun teaser.
I have to agree with markmonnin...it should be second FROM the left! As written it comes out reversed... Otherwise, I LOVE THESE!
If the order you have is correct, then it should should say orage is second FROM the left, rather than to the left. I had them completely reversed because of that clue. Oh well, still a good teaser!
looking forward to the rest of them.
Again, fun for me. Now on to Part 3!
