We’ll done.
1 fills up first. the spigot is much winder than the tube so the glass will fill faster than it can drain.
Also rule
That’s assuming the valve is open all the way and that there’s a bunch of water pressure behind the spigot. It should be entirely possible to create a very slow trickle by having a massive body of water behind the spigot (making it functionally infinite) but having only a small part of the entrance beneath the surface.
who’s to say it isn’t a slow faucet?
If its not properly installed I will call a plumber to fix it.
I hate you so much right now. Also I think it’s 5
It was your comment that made me realise
It’s only 5. It just overflows.
Depends on the flow from the faucet.
If it is filling 1 faster then water can move between then order will be 1->2->5
If it is slow enough then just 5 fills.
Everything else will be dry. Between 2 to 3 is sealed too. Without lids there is a lot of issues.
I think there’s a potential for 4 to get wet, even though it can’t fill.
If the faucet pressure and flow is so big that it spills out without filling the bucket, the spill could reach 4. Given that the walls of that bucket are extremely cold, the water could freeze over the drain, making that the first bucket to fill up.
So I would say 4.
Because the inlet and outlet of 2 are the same size, 2 will always be filled last, if at all. Once 5 is filled, it will spill out the edges of the container rather than back flowing.
Technically if it’s faster, then at some point 3 will start to get water. Due to 2 overflowing and filling the space between the 2 cups.
6 probably, maybe would, but not 100% sure.
Which means that really 4 can’t fill up over time.
Yeah nothing will fill up until 5 is full. And then since 4 has a leak it, I think basically ONLY 5 will fill.
Assuming there’s a floor it’d be 5 first, then 7, then 4 and 6 basically tie, followed by 2, then a million gallons later 3, and it looks like 1 is last because it’s a tiny bit higher
4 before 6 because of the hole in 4.
2 and 3 at the same time.
I think you’re right about 4, it’s been like 20 years since I thought about how water works lol, once that hole is submerged, 4 fills, right?
3/6/7 can’t be filled, the hole between 2>3 is plugged.
Assuming there’s a floor eventually water levels will rise and breach the rim. They aren’t sealed up top
even if they’re no floor, they will all fill eventually. it may cause another noah’s ark situation, but what matters is that all the containers will be filled.
The line is blocked between 2-3, so 3,6,&7 don’t get anything.
It’s gonna spill out and assuming there is a floor and it’s not an infinitely bottomless pit, the water will hit the floor, and the water level in the floor will rise. Keep in mind the very first thing I said was “assuming there is a floor”
Given enough pressure, bucket 1 will never be filled, and it will overflow to 2 and 3. Depending on the flow, 2 could be the first to fill up.
I like the explanatory drawing your provided.
There’s only one “one” in the diagram, so I’m gonna say the one marked “1.” Pretty easy.
God dammit I was five minutes late
The faucet
5
I’d recognise that pattern anywhere, but I focused in on the problem and almost didn’t notice your dasterdly deed
What pattern? Judging by the comments this is some kind of trick but I don’t know what it is lol
It’s the “loss” meme
As other replies have said and linked to, it’s meant to be “loss”
Though OP slightly changed the template to fit the puzzle, as the right hand corner is meant to have the shorter piece. That threw me off as well.
It’s a reference to this
Tap for spoiler
Ctrl+Alt+Delete! Wow there’s a blast from the past!
… fuck.

:.|:;DAMNIT… YOU WIN!
None. The water is not running.
Looks like they’re all full of air already
😡
All the candidates are thanked for their time and asked to leave except you, who get invited to join MIB.
I actually started to figure out the sequence…then I realized…fuck you, take my up vote
:3
?
They said :3
Depends on the flow rate, but most likely 1 if the tap is running fast. Otherwise I have no idea.
Also, what’s with these comments? What’s so special/clever about this pic?
Someone would say you’re at a…loss
Definitely cause your hint isn’t helping.
Okay but what does that meme comic have to do with this post?
The boxes are placed such that they mimic the positions of the characters in the comic.
That comic got memed a lot, including a lot of people who “reduced” the characters to just their orientation and position in the comic.

Yeah, a lot of people acting like this is some well known thing… I’ve been using the internet since the early 90s and I’ve never heard of this comic, let alone this specific strip so it must be some 4chan shit or other oldschool board.
I came in to comment, “it probably would probably be 5, but I think it would depend on the flow rate?”
But reading the other comments, it looks like I’m OOTL on something? 🧐
im at a loss too
There might be something further upstream. All the way upstream.
spoiler-title
point zero, in fact
if you really want to know... don't do it
Ha. Trick question! All of them are already full of air, and niether the flow rate nor the direction (or lack) of gravity was specified anyway. You lose. :)
i hate you.
but ignoring my loss, if everything is pressurized i think 7 if unpressurized i think 5
Ignoring the walled off stuff, can you ELI5 why pressurized vs not changes things and how so?
The pipe from 2-3 is walled off though.
well i didn’t see that lol
7 won’t ever fill because the pipe from 2 to 3 is blocked off.
well i didn’t see that lol
