It seems like it's getting harder to play video games all the time: an especially embarrassing realization when you've gone halfway across the country to attend the tenth annual Music and Gaming Festival aka "MAGFest"

Sean is joined by guest panelists Justin "JewWario" Carmichael (@JewWario), Brenna "Sindra" Wilkes (@TastesLikeSin), and Powet.TV founder Zac Shipley (@ZacShipley) discuss the potentials and pitfalls of the Wii U, the events of the first day of MAGFest, ruminations on the seeming necessity of the waiver policy in light of ninja refrigerator attacks, and the importance of personal hygiene -- even if in Pikachu form. Also, Vinnk (unable to attend due to living on the other side of the planet) regales is with HIS version of a fun convention!

Attack of the Fridge

No fridge?

Sneaky ninja fridge...
The ninja a fridge wound...

Professor Layton's Puzzle

A group of 100 soldiers sufferd the following injuries in battle: 70 soldiers lost an eye, 75 lost an ear, 85 lost a leg, and 80 lost an arm, what is the minimum numbers of soldiers who must have lost all four?
It's impossible to tell the exact combinations of injuries, but using this information, you can find out some minimum and maxiumum ranges. Given these numbers, it's possible to know at least how many have all four, and the question is only to figure out what that number is.

Fortunately, it's not too bad; it's just a bitwise operation!

- = 5 uninjured soldiers
* = 5 injured soldiers

**************------ = 1) 70 lost an eye
***************----- = 2) 75 lost an ear
****************---- = 3) 80 lost an arm
*****************--- = 4) 85 lost a leg

**************------ 1)
-----*************** 2)

*********----------- = At least 45 lost an eye and an ear
----**************** 3)

*****--------------- = At least 25 lost an eye, an ear, and an arm
---***************** 4)

**------------------ = At least 10 lost an eye, an ear, an arm, and a leg

UPDATE:
A listener has figured out a much easier proof for this solution. Check out his math in the comments section!

Not TheSpoonyOne In a newest wrinkle expanding the size of my annual convention circuit, Sean finds that he is confused more and more for Noah Antwiler, a.k.a. "The Spoony One". This even happened, thousands of miles away from MAGFest, in LA during BotCon 2011. BOTCON! Where people already know him from TFBoogaloo.com!
