I reckon that's probably "Keystone" rather than stone key.

yeah, well, I was off doing real work while you were figuring out the last of level two. I obsessed a little too much over that puzzle.

I'll give you a riddle soon as I think of a good one.

I would say a new rule should be inplace, if a person takes more then 2 days to post a riddle when its there turn, it goes back to the person who had it last.....sound good?

I'm thinking we could even be 'looser' than that.  I say people just post whenever, I think it would be fun to have 5-6 open puzzles at a time.  If you don't happen to log on at the right moment, you miss out, then it's mostly just waiting for new puzzles.

Anyway, on to my puzzle.

As you may have noticed, a digital clock displays the time through a series of 'bars'.  If all the bars are displayed, then you have an 8.  There are 7 bars that make up this 8.  A number 1 is made up of two bars, both vertical on the right hand side.  If you add one more bar across the top, you get a 7.  Does that make sense?

Ok, so...

What time is it when the clock is displaying the least amount of bars?  How many bars are there?

What time is it when the clock is displaying the most amount of bars?  How many bars are there?

Assume normal time, not military time.

least: 1:11, 6 bars.
more: 10:08 for 20 bars.
