Question for humans - bit more difficult this time :-)
A prisoner is supposed to take a bath in the high-security wing of a prison. For this he is led into a special cell. This is exactly 1.80 meters long, 1.80 meters wide and 2.60 meters high. In it is a bathtube with 250 liter capacity, which is firmly embedded. The room has no windows and only one door. This is made of steel and absolutely waterproof. In the middle of the ceiling is a round ventilation shaft with 12 cm diameter and removable grille. The guard tells the prisoner that he will return in exactly three hours and pick him up. However, when the prisoner turns on the tap a short time later, the handle breaks off and he can not stop the water. The water flows incessantly at 60 liters per minute, and the steel door is shut off.
What can he do so he does not drown?
Correct answer should have been:
Pull the plug out of the bathtub
Solution: Let red colour be 0, green - 1, blue - 2
first prisoner sum all colours in front of him and tells the sum by modulo 3 (16 modulo 3 is 1, for example), inverted for colour (so if sum in front is 16, he says green = 1)
then each of other prisoners count the difference between colour said and sum in front of him and determine his colour
Example:
rgbrrgbrrb
first tells blue (1+2+0+0+1+2+0+0+2=8=2)
second see (2+0+0+1+2+0+0+2=7=1), so he says (2-1=1) green, update the sum to (2-1)=1
third see (0+0+1+2+0+0+2=5=2), so he says(1-2=-1=2) blue, update the sum to (1-2=-1)=2
fourth see (0+1+2+0+0+2=5=2), so he says(2-2=0) red, update the sum to (2-0)=2
etc
so, prisoners from 2 to 10 guesses their hat's colour right
Sorry if i understood the theme of the day wrong/task was too hard, it could be not counted if moderators will say so) just wanted to give one of my favourite logical riddles

Three eyes have I, all in a row; when the red one opens, no one can go.

guys and girls u should follow the rules:
- A new task can be put only 30 minutes after the current one.
- The challenger has to confirm any correct answers that are posted or must reveal it after the 30 minutes have elapsed. If there is no confirmation from the challenger, no one will receive eggs for that round.
- You cannot be a challenger every round. There has to be at least two other challengers before you post another question, eg: You, Player 1, Player 2, You. However, you can still answer every question that a player of the opposite race may post.
- If a task has been put at 12:35, then the next one can only be posted at 13:05

Better language:
I stand in front of a shelf , there stand clocks side by side. Two of them are cuckoo clocks. One cuckoo clock is the sixth clock from the left, the other is the eighth clock from the right! Between the two cuckoo clocks are exactly three other clocks.
How many watches are at least on the shelf?
