A. B
B. C
C. A
Question 2
The first question with correct answer B is:
A. Question 3
B. Question 1
C. Question 2
Question 3
The only answer you have not chosen yet is:
A. A
B. B
C. C
Answer
Question 1: CQuestion 2: A
Question 3: B
Just go through the answers to Question 1:
The answer can't be "A" because then the answer to question 2 would say that the answer to Question 1 was really "B".
The answer to Question 1 can't be "B" either, because then question 2 would state that its own answer is "B", when it would have to be "C".
This leaves "C" for Question 1 and "A" for Question 2.
Question 3 must then have an answer of "B".

Cool! Very simple, and yet my brain is still in a knot.
i have read this sonwhere b-4 or somthing similer- but good 1!
This is not possible because ques. c is b, b but that can't be because the anwser is b.
C is B? What do you mean?
pretty easy as long as you just guess and check...i'd like quizzes like this more often
its so simple that its hard... very good
wow.
i found that really easy but fun none the less
I DONT GET IT
Love it!
I reckon you could argue that A, B and C would be another solution, but it depends on how you read question 2. Q2 asks "The first question with correct answer B is:" If you take from Q1 the *answer* B (which is option A) and not *option* B (with the answer C) it fits. That is, the answer for Q2 is "Question 1" (option B). Which means the answer for Q1 is "B" (option A) leaving Q3 with the answer "C" (option C). Does that make sense to anyone else?
yepz...
thatz another way to look at it...

I didn't get it.

Now I get it.
Good one even a blonde got it
I agree that another answer is ABC
I agree with your logic to a point, Snaps, but... Imagine you were sitting a multiple choice test and instead of writing the answers (A,B,C,...) you wrote the words next to the answers. Your 'answers' would not be marked correct. ;)
Sorry to post again, but according to your redefinition of answer, the 'answer' to question to would be "Question 1"; not B! I believe that the only consistently correct solution is the one given.
That's what I got snaps, with your same reasoning. But I must now admit that Sir Col makes a valid point. We did use two different definitions of the word 'answer' in order to make that work.
Great teaser Silver Sword! Threw me for a loop when I was about to say what a simple teaser it was.

This was a good teaser. I have made lots of teasers like that my self, but good one! I have to show this one to my friends. It seems pretty straight forward though. You just have to guess and check, until Questions 1 and 2 have different answers. You should make more of these "Multiple Choice" Type questions.
Did anyone notice that question 3 does not have A, B, or C as a possible answer?
Disregard, I was looking at something else.
I think you should put 1:b 2:c... you when you have the letter combine it doens't make sense which one you're talking about.
this one was pretty cool, easy, but still a little confusing
If you apply the answers question 1 gives you for question 2 then you've got your answers.
I've alwaus tried to be logical in everything I do, but this one got the better of me. Good teaser, next time I'll try harder.
Oops, next time I'l spell always right.
If you use logic,it is very simple.
that was so clever!!!!!...thnx for a great teaser!!!!!...loved it
My brain hurts!
Logic, hmmm, you see, that's the problem
That was a gooun! Thanks! I'm not even trying to hear the "alternative answers" that someone came up with above. I suppose it has to do with having letters for the choices instead of numbers of something else, but, I don't think there are REALLY any other truly correct solutions. It's probably trickier the way it is which makes it more fun, than having numbers and letters.
The hardest part is getting started. Once you just dive in a start, you can solve it fairly easily, especially if you write your answers down, or type them down in the notebook window or something, as you go: which is what I didn't do, which is why it took me longer than it would have!
Thanks again!

I actually got it...but totally took some time! Excellent, Excellent teaser!

Much easier than it first looked. Still not too easy though. To all complainers: The choice of answers are marked A, B, C for a reason. It's not to complicated to figure out what you have to do.
Liked it a bit

Logic problems are my faves. Love them, but this one was too easy. Loved it anyways.
I did it!
but I'm still confused
but I'm still confused
simple logic, didnt have to think about this one too much... great teaser... and yes, there is only 1 possible answer
OUCH????????
My brain hurts. it is steadily shrinking, shriviling..... Ouch.
its a good puzzle but should have a line saying you took it from home page of iGoogle ;o)
Having the answers and options using the same letters was much too confusing for me. I came up with the answers snaps did, yet I wouldn't want to go back and explain how I got them! Headache time!!
That one made my brain hurt. Thanks for posting anyway. I at least like trying.
Monday~
Monday~
I agree with snaps, because that's what I did. But whether I got it wrong, or right.....
I LOVED IT
I LOVED IT
Good puzzle. I like the logic you use assumptions and contradictions to "eliminate" an answer to then make the 3 questions correct.
This teaser is awesome! All you have to do is read the questions a few times and add you brain. I loved it. Thanks!
Really easy but I love puzzles like this so keep em coming!
Glad other thought of ABC like me, Good teaser!
Overall, not a difficult puzzle, but entertaining nonetheless. Cheers.
i still dont get it
Nice! I actually got it on my first trial (lucky me) but going through it step-by-step to eliminate every other possibility was also fun! Nice teaser.
Is this something new? I am too old to know what we are supposed to do with this. Never seen anything like it before.
Yes I agree with snapz, that's what I was thinking: that an alternate solution would be A, B, C, using the actual content of the answer to Question 1, rather than the option title. I was kind of looking for something like that in case it was a trick, even though it wasn't in "Trick" category.
I'm not going to say it should be corrected, because I think it works. But I do see it as a potential alternate. Because really, BOTH parts ("A." and "B") could be considered the "answer."

I agree with eighsse and snapz - "answer B" threw me there for a minute - but it worked either way. Fun teaser!
Ah, nice riddle. My brain is now melted and my cells are dislocated, but very enjoyable
Loved it!!! Had to think a little bit, but completely solvable with a little brain power. Great teaser!
