One I could actually solve!
The sum of the digits was divisible by 7.

At first when I thought about it, I said it was 40...hehe. But then I think about it again, and go...there is a smarter way to do so and get the right answer.

I assume something in that question overrides the fact that it's impossible to fold a real piece of paper in half that many times.
A Life size map of neopia would be how long...and what shape? A virtual neopian map would be infinitly stretchable.
Assuming that, I agree with the Sevens. Or is it a trick question?

I just assumed it was Neopean logic and went with the standard 40 folds. If it were otherwise, then how many folds would you actually need calculate? This LC would (partially) become a guessing game, and I don't think that's what TNT was aiming for.
Now watch as I'm proven wrong next Thursday.

My answer is divisible by 7 as well

My answer I got earlier was wrong, so don't pay any attention to me.

Finally got around to solving this one since I too a huge break after trying to figure out the MP. My answer is also divisible by 7. 
Fri Feb 17, 2006 12:00 pm
my answer was also a multiple of 7, and the sum of the digits was also a multiple of 7

*laughs* im pretty sure all of u got the wrong answer. will elaborate if i get the correct ans!

Actually, I was looking over the question again and I think my answer might be wrong after all.... Too bad we're not allowed to enter through multiple accounts, or else I'd test my theory on my side.

Good, because I so rarely get the right answer. And TNT explaination usually doesn't explain why.
It's still a trick question - but you have to decide if the trick is that it's not a trick.

It seems so easy. i hope it's not a real trick.

Hmm. My awnser isn't divisible by seven, although I'm pretty sure I did my math right.
But then, conversion and estimation do not make for good bed fellows. I could have easily messed something up there.;

I just submitted my answer, 10 numbers, once rounded up, divisible by 7 (not 11) - anyone think I'm correct or even within the first 250?

You might be correct, you got probably what i got. but you're nowhere near the top 250.
