He's fricking right though. The clock format is 00:00, and thus, 00:01, 00:02, etc. should be counted on technicality. This is the problem with a lot of Layton puzzles: the wording punishes lateral thinking for puzzles which actually have several valid answers.
it says imagine a clock like the one in the picture, and then explains for this riddle that it uses 12 hour time scale.
the one in the picture clearly uses 24 hour time scale. >you got tricked
If we used a 24 hour clock, either it wouldn't sound awkward, or we'd use something better sounding. But using a time format that allows for the possibility of confusion, however rare, with no upside in return is inherently moronic. But, hey, we all acknowledge that the imperial system sucks too, and we're stuck on that still.
Anon, when had a clock ever read 00:0X? It goes from 12:59 to 1:00
>anon says he's a eurogay and doesn't know how our time system works >HAHA DUMBASS! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW A 12 HOUR CLOCK WORKS!
Imagine being illiterate.
Nobody says "20 o' clock", you only use 20:00 when writing. When speaking you just say 8. You can add "in the morning" like you would AM but most of the times it's not necessary because of context.
We use it for work, so 1400 would be 2:00 PM, pretty easy to remember when you just take anything past 12 as + that number, Like 2300 is just 12 + 11 = 23
>mutt time
?
Every country has both 12 hour clocks and 24 hour clocks
I'm not american and pretty much everyone I have ever seen knows how either way works.
No, in England they have four time quadrants in 6 hour blocks instead. So midnight to 5:59AM in US time is RT, 6AM to 11:59AM is MT, 12PM to 5:59PM is AT, and 6PM to 11:59PM is NT. Those being royal time, morning time, afternoon time, and night time respectively.
So 2NT in English time is 7PM in American time.
This is why Brits have such a hard time dealing with American release times on Steam and such.
I always use 24 hour time because it makes it much more immediately clear what time of day you're actually talking about, making it inherently superior to AM/PM.
Hell, that's literally why militaries AND medical workers use 24 hour time, both fields require accuracy, speed and clarity when communicating time.
For US military time, I wouldn't say it's speed. Saying "Twenty Hundred Hour and 50 mikes" is not much faster than saying "Eight Fifty PM" but it is more accurate and clear.

Also 24 hour clock is kind of different than military time because of how it is written and as well as how it is said. Like you don't write 20:50, you write it as 2050.
Don't listen to the fricking LARPers, Euros just use both from every single country I've been in. Nobody SAYS 16:00 in speech, they will always say something like '4 in the afternoon,' but yes, 24-hour clocks are common and we all know how to read them. It is not hard.
Where the frick are you from? I was born in Italy, and later lived in France, Germany, London, and Ukraine for work. Never once in casual speech, at any job, did I hear people ever say anything higher than 12:00 out loud. Brits just use the fricking AM PM system like the states with zero changes.
In my country when speaking we just say the time in 12 hours then the time of day, like 5 in the afternoon or 10 in the morning
Explain why do we still need to go to the moon
We established long ago that it's a barren rock with no natural resources, so what the frick is the point of using up a lot of money and resources to go there again? If we ever come back to the moon it will be to build a moonbase, but for now the REAL deal is getting a manned expedition to Mars

lmao the absolute state of these morons
I'm glad I'm Canadian and don't deal with those problems. Except the pounds and Clock thing. Still you guys with things in "stones" so I don't think you have a leg to stand on
Brits only use stones to measure body weight, it's not really used outside of that. I live in NZ and it's the same thing with feet, we just use it to measure our height but it's never used outside of that
Shut up you wienersucking fricking chink leaf, I have never lived in a more homosexual fricking leftist country than Canada, and I spent 15 years stuck in it. I literally moved back to the states recently and you morons have no idea how much actual freedom you are missing up there. You don't even have codified freedom of speech, enjoy getting jailed for saying Black person.
dont calculate freezing temp at zero degree
Not every thing freezes at zero degrees.
Foreskin is the only real issue. Using Feet, yards, pounds etc is all very soulful.
They also measure things in elephants or whatever, but I'm sure that's a running gag in news headlines.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha
Thanks for laughs
The answer is zero right? Because technically on a digital clock there are only two numbers across four digits and it didn't specify digits. Layton almost never actually expects anyone to do math in these things.
Yo, dude! So, we got this digital clock, right? It's all about hours and minutes, and we're not talkin' military time, we're on that 12-hour scale. Now, you wanna know how many times that bad boy's gonna display three or more of the same number in a row in a single day? Well, buckle up, my friend, 'cause I'm about to drop some knowledge on you!
Alright, so let's break it down. We got 12 hours in a day, from 1 to 12. Each hour's gonna have 60 minutes. Now, we gotta think about the digits, man. We got 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. That's ten different numbers we're dealin' with.
Now, if we wanna find three or more of the same number in a row, we gotta think about the possibilities. Let's say we're lookin' at the hours first. If we got three or more of the same number in a row, that means we're either gonna have three of the same number in the hours or three of the same number in the minutes. We can't have both at the same time, 'cause they're separate digits, ya dig?
So, if we're checkin' the hours, we got 12 possibilities, right? We're talkin' about 1:11, 2:22, 3:33, and so on up to 12:22. That's 12 different times, bro.
But hold up! We gotta remember that some of these times ain't happenin' twice a day, 'cause we're rockin' that 12-hour scale. So, we can cut those in half and get 6 valid possibilities.
Now, let's think about the minutes. We're lookin' for three or more of the same number in a row, so we're checkin' 0:00, 0:11, 0:22, all the way up to 0:55. That's a total of 6 different times for the minutes.
Now, we gotta multiply the possibilities for the hours and the minutes 'cause they're happenin' independently, bro. So, we got 6 times 6, which gives us a total of 36 possible times where we'll see three or more of the same number in a row on that clock in a single day.
Boom! There you have it, my dude. 36 times this edgy, zoomer clock is gonna show you three or more of the same number in a row in a day. Time's up, my friend!

A turn is a turn. You can't say it's only a half
This was both correct and exceptional as a metaphor. Full picarts.
Imma guess U assuming that the bottom row shares the same pattern of being same as the top but just one letter ahead and the only one missing is the letter T
I really wonder how the frick this puzzle translates. Wouldn't just putting the characters for the numbers in JP completely give them away? Or is it the first part of the kanji or what? I'm legitimately wondering, I don't speak Nipponese so I have zero idea.
You could try the first letter of romaji I guess. Same with Chinese and pinyin.
Whether this would be in any way guessable for them is a whole other question though.
For that particular one, it's exactly the same in Japanese. Layton's a puzzle game and Japan teaches English to its students to a degree, so they just treat it as part of the difficulty.
Question isn't clear - does 11:10 count as a different instance of three numbers than 11:11, despite the same three numbers appearing concurrently in both?
I know we can all brute force the solution (just count every time 3 consecutive and equal numbers appear and write it down), but what's the algorithm? Usually most of these problems have two solutions: the brute force one where you need to count a lot and it's very tedious, and the "clever" one which is some kind of formula or algorithm that makes it easier. I have room temperature IQ so I did it by counting btw.
how do you come up with puzzles? a lot of the puzzle scenarios are fricking weird and I can't imagine the amount of brainstorming you'd need to just make a game with hundred's of puzzles. some of them are based on ancient riddles and shit, some are repeats, but most of them are new I assume, and there are what feel like close to a hundred per layton game. how do you brainstorm a puzzle?
>europeans see the word "Military Time" >assume it means we defer to the Military to read the clock for us >in reality it is just a word we use to describe the format
Imagine calling the better format "military time"
That's what everyone calls it??
Where i'm from it's simply refered to as digital or analogue time
only burgers call it that
No in first world countries it is just the normal time.

For all the morons out there
10:00
But, 10:00 was in the original list
Wrong.
It's asking "how many times". The 11:10~11:19 block counts as one. :^)
Amazing. The image literally shows the clock uses the format xx:xx, and yet this person goes on to do the riddle as if the clock used the format x:xx.
What about 00:01 etc.?
He's fricking right though. The clock format is 00:00, and thus, 00:01, 00:02, etc. should be counted on technicality. This is the problem with a lot of Layton puzzles: the wording punishes lateral thinking for puzzles which actually have several valid answers.
God damn it, it says NOT in 24-hour time. The shitposting in this thread scrambled my brains. He would be right if it was, however.
A 12-hour clock does not show 00:00. It loops from 12:59 to 01:00.
it says imagine a clock like the one in the picture, and then explains for this riddle that it uses 12 hour time scale.
the one in the picture clearly uses 24 hour time scale.
>you got tricked
Wtf is military format
that stupid shit where you call 8 pm '20 oclock'
If we used a 24 hour clock, either it wouldn't sound awkward, or we'd use something better sounding. But using a time format that allows for the possibility of confusion, however rare, with no upside in return is inherently moronic. But, hey, we all acknowledge that the imperial system sucks too, and we're stuck on that still.

We just add the word 'hundred' after every thing past noon.

Wait, so Europeans don't have A.M. or P.M.?
No, in England they have four time quadrants in 6 hour blocks instead. So midnight to 5:59AM in US time is RT, 6AM to 11:59AM is MT, 12PM to 5:59PM is AT, and 6PM to 11:59PM is NT. Those being royal time, morning time, afternoon time, and night time respectively.
So 2NT in English time is 7PM in American time.
This is why Brits have such a hard time dealing with American release times on Steam and such.
That's actually very interesting, if not a little confusing. Still really cool.
It's also complete bullshit. English use AM and PM like the rest of the world that doesn't use an overt 24-hour system.
I always use 24 hour time because it makes it much more immediately clear what time of day you're actually talking about, making it inherently superior to AM/PM.
Hell, that's literally why militaries AND medical workers use 24 hour time, both fields require accuracy, speed and clarity when communicating time.

Do you not know what a 24h clock is?
No, Europeans have proper time.
Don't listen to the fricking LARPers, Euros just use both from every single country I've been in. Nobody SAYS 16:00 in speech, they will always say something like '4 in the afternoon,' but yes, 24-hour clocks are common and we all know how to read them. It is not hard.

Not him but we most certainly do in Poland. 8 and 20 are completely interchangeable in casual speech and equally common.

Now, if we wanna find three or more of the same number in a row, we gotta think about the possibilities. Let's say we're lookin' at the hours first. If we got three or more of the same number in a row, that means we're either gonna have three of the same number in the hours or three of the same number in the minutes.

But hold up! We gotta remember that some of these times ain't happenin' twice a day, 'cause we're rockin' that 12-hour scale. So, we can cut those in half and get 6 valid possibilities.

Now, we gotta multiply the possibilities for the hours and the minutes 'cause they're happenin' independently, bro. So, we got 6 times 6, which gives us a total of 36 possible times where we'll see three or more of the same number in a row on that clock in a single day.
Boom! There you have it, my dude. 36 times this edgy, zoomer clock is gonna show you three or more of the same number in a row in a day. Time's up, my friend!

You should be able to solve this.
contrived, unfair, and very fun Layton trick question puzzle*
Frick you Layton
I expend one hint coin.
2 turns inside the exhibit itself.
Or 1 turn if you want to be REALLY pedantic.
now do only half-turn
A turn is a turn. You can't say it's only a half
If you make a turn in a room and hold the turn while moving between rooms then you technically didn't make a turn in the second room. We call this a half-turn.
A turn has 3 parts. When you start turning, even you are turning, and when you stop turning
so as long as you exit the room while still turning, it should count as half-a-turn
What if you enter the room while turning? Then you can complete the room in 0 turns.
that still counts as half-a-turn, since you are already in the turning part. or maybe 1/3rd of a turn
It would be a half-turn if the guard either started or ended the turn in the museum exhibit, but as both the start and end of the turn are outside the exhibit, the guard can patrol all rooms of the exhibit with zero half-turns.
This was both correct and exceptional as a metaphor. Full picarts.
>digital clock that doesn't display 24 hours
Do Americans really?
>amerimutts are so stupid that they can't wrap their heads around the concept of counting past 12
You should be able to solve this.
>you need to be a genius to beat the game
F and it took me 10 seconds
why
First letter of every number
Would complete the pattern and belongs are two completely different things. No letter belongs on the paper card. Nothing belongs on the paper card.
it's o?
Nevermind, I change my answer to f
Imma guess U assuming that the bottom row shares the same pattern of being same as the top but just one letter ahead and the only one missing is the letter T
ONE TWO THREE FOUR FIVE SIX SEVEN EIGHT NINE TEN
I declare this puzzle raycis against ESLs who don't think in English by default
I really wonder how the frick this puzzle translates. Wouldn't just putting the characters for the numbers in JP completely give them away? Or is it the first part of the kanji or what? I'm legitimately wondering, I don't speak Nipponese so I have zero idea.
You could try the first letter of romaji I guess. Same with Chinese and pinyin.
Whether this would be in any way guessable for them is a whole other question though.
For that particular one, it's exactly the same in Japanese. Layton's a puzzle game and Japan teaches English to its students to a degree, so they just treat it as part of the difficulty.
O all day long. Not a genius just a nooticet
I got this one immediately.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
[F]ive.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
The frick is military time?
The time they use in the military
>Pekora got this right first try
are you dumber than a vtuber?
Question isn't clear - does 11:10 count as a different instance of three numbers than 11:11, despite the same three numbers appearing concurrently in both?
I know we can all brute force the solution (just count every time 3 consecutive and equal numbers appear and write it down), but what's the algorithm? Usually most of these problems have two solutions: the brute force one where you need to count a lot and it's very tedious, and the "clever" one which is some kind of formula or algorithm that makes it easier. I have room temperature IQ so I did it by counting btw.
how do you come up with puzzles? a lot of the puzzle scenarios are fricking weird and I can't imagine the amount of brainstorming you'd need to just make a game with hundred's of puzzles. some of them are based on ancient riddles and shit, some are repeats, but most of them are new I assume, and there are what feel like close to a hundred per layton game. how do you brainstorm a puzzle?
>europeans see the word "Military Time"
>assume it means we defer to the Military to read the clock for us
>in reality it is just a word we use to describe the format
