Not sure when TBlaar is coming again?

This thread is getting boring!

Here's 2 unrelated series. What's the next numbers:

1,3,4,x,y,z (there's more than one possible answer. Give them all if you can)
Click to expand...

1,3,4,6,7,9 ( I think that's right. The other one I have no clue.)

So you took +2, +1, +2, +1, etc.? That's one option I didn't think of:)

Give the other one a bit more thought. Here it is again. The series is actually 10 numbers long, I've only put a part of it here. I've added another number to maybe make it easier:

___6,___5,___6,___9,___4,___a (this is a series repeating itself indefinitely, the preceding numbers doesn't matter - tell us what's the next number and in what instances does it repeat itself)

Well, the last pattern is:
1
4
9
16
25
36
49
64
81
100

1,4,9,6,5,6,9,4,1 will continue to repeat itself indefinitely with square numbers.


I can't even remember the answer to the other one.

You go ahead, Roomys_ZA, give us a more interesting one:D

Just for the record, I think the other one is 1,3,4,7,11,18,29etc (the sum of the previous two numbers).

Indeed.
It can also be 1, 3, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc (sum of all numbers)
It can also be 1, 3, 4, 4, 3, 1, (+2,+1,+0,-1,-2, etc)
Then we can go: 1, 3, 4, 4.5, 4.75 (+2, +1, +0.5, +0.25 - plus half that of the previous plus)
JP's idea: 1,3,4,6,7,9 (+2, +1, +2, +1)

Now we're creating a pattern within a pattern...
:D

Shall we continue?

Let's restart this thread

A car has it when it's going also when its leaving, the car doesn't need it but without it, it goes nowhere
What is it?
 
I hear ya all but still not. It really is something that the car doesn't need.

*Hint: there's a hint encrypted in this top part*
 
I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole,
What am I?
 
Well here goes thought this one up by myself:

I'll start the disaster and finish the end.
Add me to your selection and i wont be there.
I wanna be effective but with me it will always be imperfect
What am i?
