This question has been closed an hour ago:

Reasoning game : The little piglet

Reason given:

Closed. This question is off-topic. It is not currently accepting answers. This question may invite speculative answers, as the question is not fully defined. The validity of some answers may be based upon opinion. Good questions for this site have a limited number of objectively correct answers. See also: Why are questions off-topic if they invite answers which are not demonstrably correct, or are otherwise speculative?

I read here that I could ask you for advice:

If you're simply unsure about the validity of the closure, the best place to ask is on the community's meta site.

The same applies this question's answer, which says:

Feel free to ask here on Meta about your specific question.

On one hand, my question is fully defined and has one and only one objectively correct answer. I can prove it by giving the answer. I can even give a formal proof by using first-order-logic.

On the other hand, it does invite speculative answers. Some people are not trying to reason, they're trying to guess. I'm not blaming them, it's what I did myself when I first heard it. My first guess was "he keeps the score?" (wrong answer).

So, what should I do?

  • $\begingroup$ Now someone has found the answer and I posted a proof that the answer was unique and could be found by deduction. Could the Reopen votes reviews please reconsider? $\endgroup$
