Suppose you have several coloured balls.

Two of the balls are red, and have the letters B and E on them.

Two of the balls are green, and have the letters M and R on them.

Two of the balls are orange, and have the letters A and E on them.

What letters are on the blue-coloured balls? Please list the letters with no spaces or punctuation in between, and sort the letters in reverse alphabetical order. For example, "ZY" would be an acceptable submission.

Check the game Attack of the Marblemen(for some reason I can't link there)



Marblemen is spelled with marbles.

A and first E orange marbles

R and second M are green marbles

B and second E are red marbles

Finally,


First M, L and N are blue marbles




Still, you are asked to post in reverse alphabetical order, so the answer is NML

Please move to the correct forum, I just couldn't post it there...

    No way you figured that out on your own man?

    Are you good with LC. We currently have no one to head LC. We have MPic handled by Laser but no LC :(

    I'm not good, I just take my time to think...
    In fact I rarely get them...
    I got this one because I had been playing the game earlier today...

    I messed up with colors, sorry, but the answer is right, after all, the Red ones are B and E, and the Blue ones MLN...
    Will edit in a second, thanks for pointing out the mistake

    NML, because it ask ofr the letter in reverse alphabetical order...

    (...)L-M-N(...)

    Extract from: The alphabet
    therefore, reverse alphabetical order would be NML


    I can't belive I quoted the alphbet

    I'm thinking an LC solver is too much work for one person. Most likely some people can solve some things and others something else. I'm thinking of having a script check for new LC every so often and as its found it posts it up on the boards and we jointly attempt solving it. What do you think?
