Question	—	How many years before enough atoms of your body are replaced to survive the sudden disappearance of the original body's atoms? A magician summons a person to the material world to be their servant. Their body is not made from true atoms per se, but is some kind of force projection. In most ways though, they act as a person and experience the laws of physics as if they were a normal flesh and blood being. This includes eatin... (more)	—	over 5 years ago

Question	—	Unmarkable cards There is a popular high-stakes card game. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, it's impossible to get out a new pack of cards for each round.

Question	—	What stars and composition of gases should my planets have to have a sky for each colour in the rainbow? There are seven planets, and each one has a different coloured sky. One has red, one has orange, all the way up to indigo and violet. Of course, they don't have a sky this colour all the time, but preferably for most of the 'daytime'. However, those aren't the only limitations. Humans must be able t... (more)	—	about 7 years ago
