This because it's impossible to have both signs 1 and 2 to be true if 3 contradicts them. If we assume that sign 3 is true, then it is true that caves 1 and 2 are false. Therefore, using XOR, cave three has the treasure.
Sorry, this is wrong. Requiett already had it right.

"If we assume that sign 3 is true, then it is true that caves 1 and 2 are false."

If you assume that sign 3 is true, and making 1 and 2 false, 1 would mean that the treasure isn't there, and 2 would mean that it IS there, therefore 3 would be false.

Basically, 1 and 3 can't have it because they both imply that the treasure is inside them, and since the old man said AT MOST one is true, it also implies that none of them HAVE to be true. Therefore, since none of them are true, cave 2 would be the only one not to contradict any of the other caves and has the treasure. (yes, I'm just re-stating what Req had already stated, but maybe you didn't understand what he was saying) |:>

Sorry, but all of you are wrong.

kadaj665 was right about dragons being in all caves, however,
the old man actually has the map you need.
The map you had was a fake that your partner gave so he could have
the trasure to himself.
You must beat up the old man and take the map from him.
You can also throw him into one of the three caves if you wish.

Now you follow the new map northwest until you come to 20 caves.
10 of the caves have dragons, 8 caves have colapesing celings
that will crush you if you enter and 2 caves have maps but one of them is actaully a bomb.
Cave 19 has the right map.
Now your new map will lead you east for a while until you come to 10 caves.
Five of these caves have dragons in them, 4 have lions and one has a map.
The 6th cave is the right one.

Now your new map will lead you going south for about 2 days until you reach 1 cave.
You would assume that this is the right cave, however, it has 2 dragons in it
Luckily, before you enter, you notice a girl bathing in a nearby lake so you
sneak behind the bushes to get a closer look.
The girl notices you and you try to run but acidentally trip over a branch and bump your head.

When you come to, you are in a room in an unknow village.
Maybe the girl brought you here?
You look around and notice a bookshelf with a large collection of manga.
You pick one up and start to read it.
Shortly after, the girl form before enters to room.
You explain to her what you were searching for and she tells you to go ask the village chief about it.

When you tell the cheilf about it, he tells you that he might knows where the treasure
is and agrees to take you to it if you split it with him 50/50.
You go on a long journey with him going north, west then southeast from the village.
After about 5 days you arrive at three caves?!
They are the same caves from before that had dragons in them. >_<
The cheif tells you its in the first cave and its safe to enter but you know something isn't right.
As the cheif trys to persuade you to go in, he accidentally drops a rolled up papper.
You pick it up and see that its yet another map...
The cheif trys to run away but you catch him and beat the crap out of him then throw him
into the first cave.
Sure enough you hear the dragon devour him.

After that you follow the directions on the new map going south for 10 days till you come to 1 cave.
This cave has the treasure you seek but the entrance is blocked by a stange door with no key hole and just a small slot.
You notice alot of stange writings on the door and manage to decipher one part that says
"Only when I feast my eyes on the bathing beauty,shall the path you desire be open"
You sit thinking for a while what it might mean then you give up and sadly walk away.
Shortly later as you are walking, you hear some splashing close by.
You peep through the bushes to see 3 ladies bathing in the lake.
You sudenly get an ideal and take a picture of them with your camera then head back
to the cave and slide it thorugh the slot.

You stand there for about 5 minutes then 10 more minutes and nothing happens so you give up and start to leave again.
As you walk away, you hear some loud rumbling behind you.
You turn around and see that the door is staring to open.
Upon entering you see the walls after walls covered with many pictures of beautiful ladies.
An old man enters the room and thanks you for the picture and then hands you yet another map...
You spend about 30 minutes admiring the old man's collection
then leave following the new map's directions.
Once again you go south this time for 2 days until you arrive at 2 caves >.>

You are not sure which one to enter
A minute later, the perverted old man appears and says he knows which cave is the right one and agrees to get the treasure for you.
He enters the second cave and shortly after, you hear a dragon devour him! O.O
You attemp to enter the 1st cave but hear a loud roar.
A dragon is also in this cave?!
The dragon from the second cave starts to come out.
Aparently that old man along with the 10 girl scouts the dragon had earlier today was too much for him
and gave him a bad case of diarrhea.
The dragon goes over to some nearby bushes to take a major (and I mean major!) shit.
While he's doing his buisness, you enter the cave and there you find the treasure!
If thats not enough, You can also go back to the old man's cave and take all of his collcetion
He wont be needing it anymore ^_^


The OP goes to me!
Too bad I don't have any new videos

I quite agree. The OP better be at least three times as long at that post.

Two times have dragons? Only one of them has the op you seek. What?

You can keep the op.

Awesome. I didn't really want to write an op anyway :up:

This is so unfair. I solved it first, and left the op for someone who could use it. My entire childhood is flashing before my eyes.

It wasn't actually that hard though. Do you have more? Haven't heard new riddles in a while.

How do you know which the right caves are and find the maps at paragraph 2, amongst, leik, 20 different caves, and then in the end you can't find the treasure in one of two caves without the help of the old man?
