The total of a player's cards in a game of blackjack (this is a very wild guess).

Nope that is wrong

How could it always be 1 to 6
Whilst also always being 15 to 20

Good grief, that's what's stumping the living $%#& out of me...... how about the faces of a 20-sided die (an icosahedron)? It has 1 to 6 on six of the faces, and 15 to 20 on the six faces directly opposite...... and doesn't have 21 anywhere...........

Is the 1 at the opposite face of the 20? Adding the direct opposites might give 21 then ... And when it's flying, you don't see any number.

PMSL
you are so close
When a 20 sided die is flying it is 210

And a 20 sided die will always be 19

Huh? I don't get how a 20-sided die will always be 19..... well I guess if that's true, then it's also true that a 6-sided die will always be 5........ and a 6-sided die is always 1 to 6..... I guess it would always be 15 to 20 if you numbered the faces 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20......

It is a 6 sided die
because
its sides are 1 to 6 so its always them

when its on a table there are five sides showing therefore its always 5
add up the dots on the five sides that are showing and you will get a number between 15 and 20
and when you throw it no sides are hidden so its 21

Beautiful.
Before, I was wondering if it might be the age of a kid at an Air Force cadet party, or something.
I guess all I can say is that I hit enough eggs to figure it out.

A man and a woman were driving in their car when it broke down. The man decided to go for help at a gas station a few miles back. He made sure nobody was in the car, rolled all the windows up, and locked all of the sedan's doors. He went off, but when he came back, his wife was dead, and there was a stranger in the car. No physical damage was done to the car, so how did the stranger get in?

Hmmm.......... I'm going to guess that the stranger tricked the wife into letting him in with the...... oh, that cologne they're always advertising..... what's it called again?
