Right.. I can't offer money because I don't have much, and I'm saving up anyway. So, I'm making this just for fun.
How it works.. Infinite questions and infinite guesses. However, all questions must be yes or no questions. All questions will be answered truthfully and no questions will be denied. I'll ask a riddle and someone will solve it. I will ask another, and so on.
Now then, on to Riddle #1.
In Banyuk there is a specific way in which subjects are selected for certain tasks. Currently there are five subjects named 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. There are five tasks labeled A, B, C, D, and E. Every subject is assigned his name's square, divided by 0. Whichever letter is that number in order, (A would be 1, B, 2, and so on) What is subject 1's task?

I follow until the very last paragraph. Which is also the most important. XD So I take the square of their name and divide by 0. All of them... equal infinity? Or is it more a symbol thing: 1/0, 4/0, 9/0, 16/0, 25/0... My stab in the dark: A gets 1.

I can't explain how to actually divide by zero without giving away the answer, sorry. Wrong, Dei.

Ah well...
TO GOOGLE!
>FAIL<
Ah, well. Let's try logic, hmm?
1^2
Then that divided by zero.
Well, 1 squared is 1.
1/0 is...
...illogical?! OH THE HORROR--
I'm getting stuck on the dividng by zero... unless the answer is that Banyuk blew up because the tried to divide by zero. But that isn't it because you've admitted it is possible to divide by zero in your previous post...
So, a question!
Is this the kinda question a random stab in the dark will solve? Numberwise, are we starting to run into the realm of "imaginary"? That's getting into Algebra II, so I dunno, but I thought I should still ask. >>;

No. No imaginary numbers here.

When you divide 5 by three you have three groups of five.

So when you divide 1 by 0, you have 0 groups of 1.
...so 1 gets A? I thought Dei guessed that, didn't she I AM SO SORRY I MEAN HE?

Dei has stopped role-playing girl characters in an effort to be more manly. Apparently it's not working. XD
0 groups of 1 0 groups of 4 0 groups of 9 0 groups of 16 0 groups of 25
I must admit that this is stumpifying moi.

You're getting very close with the zero groups there. Remember, A is one, B is two, C is three, and so on.

TELL ME I'M MAYBE-KINDA SORTA LIKE A MACHO MANLY MAN? T_T
1 square divided by zero. 2 squares divided by zero. 3 squares divided by zero. 4 squares divided by zero. 5 squares divided by zero.
0 squares of 1. 0 squares of 2. 0 squares of 3. 0 squares of 4. 0 squares of 5.
Ze pain. It hurtz.
