OK. The woman was the wife of one of the men. He comes home and finds her having a kinky time with a man in a bath full of ice-cubes. He pushes the bath tub out of the window. The bath hits a passerby killing him. The other man is killed but is still in the bath tub along with the wife (who might be dead or alive). The husband dies of a heart attack.

That's a very good version, but not it. But you are getting the right idea.

As for doing kinky things in a bathtub full of ice -- that's just outright sadistic. Ukk! I said ridiculous, not S&M. ;)

[Unknown008]

So, the woman was a man's wife then?

Ok, I need to differentiate the three men.

Man 1: Natural causes; Heart Attack.
Man 2: Murdered man.
Man 3: Accidental; sort of fell through a window

Was the wife also in the residential building?
Is Man 1 the one on the pavement?
Did the ice cubes cause the death of one of the men?
Were the ice cubes near to the window of the residential building?
Were the ice cubes with Man 3?
Was Man 3 the one living in the residential building?

Yes.

This is all correct. Exactly like I set up the summary.

Was the wife also in the residential building?

Yes.

Is Man 1 the one on the pavement?

No.

Did the ice cubes cause the death of one of the men?

No.

Were the ice cubes near to the window of the residential building?

The proximity to the window is not relevant. (I'm assuming you meant before they ended up on the pavement?)

Were the ice cubes with Man 3?

Yes.

Was Man 3 the one living in the residential building?

No.

[QLP]

Was man 1 the murderer?
Was man 2 having an affair with man 1's wife?

[morgaine300]

Was man 1 the murderer?

Yes.

Was man 2 having an affair with man 1's wife?

No.

[Unknown008]

Is Man 3 on the front door? :eek:

Was the ice cubes used by Man 3 to relieve some ache?

Was Man 3 leaning on the window when it broke?

So, the wife is in fact Man 1's wife?
Did the wife saw what happened?
Did she cause someone to die?

Is another building involved?
- Is it directly in front of the residential building?

[morgaine300]

Is Man 3 on the front door? :eek:

[Unknown008]

For

Did the woman accidentally kill man 3?

I'll say no.

Is man to the man on the pavement?

I'll say yes, from what have been asked and answered.

It is right morgaine?

I'd like to think about some more questions right now, but I have to go. I'll be back in about 2~3 hours.

[QLP]

For

Did the woman accidently kill man 3?

I'll say no.

Is man 2 the man on the pavement?

Yeh I realised the woman didn't cause the death so edited that out just before I saw your post. Sorry if that confuses anyone.

[QLP]

My brain hurts lol.

[morgaine300]

All these men are making my brain hurt.

Did man 1 accidentally kill man 3?

Yes.

Did man 2 accidentally kill man 3?

No.

Did man 3 accidentally kill himself?

No.

Is man to the man on the pavement?

My brain hurts lol.

Didn't I just say that? :eek:

[morgaine300]

Did the woman accidentally kill man 3? I'll say no.

No. (Although I think you figured out it was already established she didn't cause any of the deaths.)

Is man to the man on the pavement? I'll say yes, from what have been asked and answered.

Yes, as we've already established this was not 1 or 3.

I'd like to think about some more questions right now, but I have to go. I'll be back in about 2~3 hours.

With any luck, I'll be asleep. But you should be into evening when I get up again. (I think.)

[QLP]

So man 1 murdered man 2, who is on the pavement. So he probably pushed him out of the window.
Man 1 accidentally killed man 3
Man 1 died of a heart attack and is in the apartment.
Man 3 disappeared in a puff of smoke and was replaced by some ice-cubes.
Mmm - guessing not quite there yet.

So man 1 murdered man 2, who is on the pavement. So he probably pushed him out of the window.

No he didn't. :D

Man 1 accidentally killed man 3
Man 1 died of a heart attack and is in the apartment.

Both correct.

Man 3 disappeared in a puff of smoke and was replaced by some ice-cubes.
Mmm - guessing not quite there yet.

Considering I'm a gamer and also watch a lot of fantasy, I don't see that as being too far-fetched. :p

Actually, I've not done one of these, but there are some of these puzzles that include impossible things like magic and such. I'll have to eventually try one of those.

That was the longest most detailed summary I have ever seen. I am impressed.
