Oh, Yannik's and my pieces make up the sock problem. It's commonly taught as an example of the Pigeonhole Principle in discrete math, which I TA'd for last fall.

The answer is...
CORRECT!!!
The bus slows down with 5 km/h and is now only driving with 20 km/h.
You had 29 hours left at the time of locking in. This gets multiplied with 1,25, which adds 7,25 hours to your time.

[completed question] On a fine day you meet Connie and Diane. Connie lies on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and tells the truth on all other days. Diane lies on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, but tells the truth on all other days of the week. They say the following to you:
Connie: "Yesterday was one of the days on which I lie."
Diane: "Yesterday was also one of the days on which I lie."
[completed question] You are on an island with citizens who look the same on the outside, but are different on the inside. The following 3 types appear on the island:
Knights, who always tell the truth
Villains, who never tell the truth
Normals, who sometimes tell the truth and sometimes lie.
Imagine meeting one of those citizens who tells you: "I am not a Knight."
Of which type is the citizen you are talking to?
I cannot answer this as I just submitted an answer to the previous question.
However, I think this answer to this question is "normals" because "I am not a Knight" can be both a true and false statement.

Once a riddle has been answered incorrectly, it's ineligible for future corrections. Another riddle must be answered correctly in it's place.
A street has 100 houses. The houses are numbered 1 to 100. How many nines are there in all those numbers?
Answer: 11 Times (9, 19, 29, 39, 49, 59, 69, 79, 89, 99)
There might be.
