It’s your first day at Magnificent Marigold’s Magical Macademy. But before you can learn your first spell you must get through the sorting ceremony. And the sorting hat has chosen you for a special challenge. The Macademy had 8 founders who established four houses, and there was once a mysterious fifth house. Can you figure out who founded what? Dan Katz and Alex Rosenthal show how.

Greetings
I just got three Ted Ed riddles right in a row... And i have to admit that giving it 5 minutes does work...
This is the first one I got to solve correctly on the first try! Not the secret house name, though, sadly :(
Wow how did you come up with this one
All the clues about the house name: *points to the letter M and having 8 letters*
Me trying to guess the house name: MMMMMMMM
If that was the answer.. I was gonna be so pissed xD
You made my day
*the house is full of s n a c c*

"1 of 7 children does not have enough food to live a happy and healthy life"
SuicideBunny6 Dammit I Accidentally Saw The Answer Here :/
Please move the second line lower so it's hidden. You spoiled the answer.
Harry: no Maths class, nooooo!!!!
The first puzzle was easy, the second felt like kind of a stretch. I mean, I noticed all the founders had Ms in their names, but that's about as far as I got. There are so many possible combinations of what pattern could emerge with that many names and letters.
the moment he put the house names below the founder's at 4:44 I instantly saw minotaur and facepalmed..
minotaurs are my favorite monster and if I had spent a bit more time trying different things it would have been such a great surprise
I agree. I feel like it was asking you to make far too many assumptions. I was looking for some logic with how the first 4 houses were named that could be used to name the 5th; not a completely different logic for the 5th. There were also 8 founders and no founders founded more than 1 house; so who founded the 5th? If Marigold didn't found the academy or any of the houses why is school named after her? The hint also says all the founder's names were the same length as the house names for a reason; but the only founder name that actually had a reason to be 8 letters long is hypnotum. None of them needed to have a name past the letter M in their name. Without going to the hint page there also was no mention of the School's name to indicate the importance of the letter M and the screen with all the information we're supposed to solve the puzzle, should have all the information we need to solve the puzzle. And while all the founders have a letter M in their name, not all the houses do; so i don't think without the name of the school, we should expect to notice an obsession with the letter M.
I noticed the Ms and that every M was in a different position in each name, but I didn't know what to do with that information. I tried pulling the letter right before and right after each M, or the letters at the beginnings and ends of each name, but had nothing.
Yea
@@renarddubois940 lol 444
Second one was a bit of a stretch, I got the answer, but i dismiss it as it was not able to tell why the other houses got their names, or why we had meramaid instead of mermaid...
No clue how the other houses got their names, but I think it's meramaid instead of mermaid, because they needed 8 Letters and mermaid would have only been seven

I'm assuming this is where Moldevort was taught?
@PotatoTornado Seems like a valid point.
most likely
well moldevort has 9 letters wich means he was the forbidden wizard
Marry potter sure is smart.
He used to be called Mom Riddle then. But your correct.
Does anyone else think the second part of this problem is totally different from anything else in the series? I mean, with all of the other riddles there’s a clear right and wrong answer and a series of logical steps to deduce it, but this one is more open ended. “Figure out the name of the secret house” could be anything; the solution just involves making a series of associations until you find something that makes sense.
The solution to part 2 had nothing to do with logic.
i’m very proud of myself of figuring out each house each founder established without keeping track of things on a piece of paper
Me: "Mom, I want to go to Hogwarts"
Mom: "We have Hogwarts at home."

I didn't get it... Can anyone explain
@@uzumakit5872 it is a meme about children wanting something and parents either not understanding or not caring. Child states I want x and mom responds we have x at home. When the child wants to see x it is either a cheap knock off or only superficialy the same. In this case the child wants Hogwarts with Slytherin, Ravenclaw etc. But gets the houses in this video. For the mom both are magic Schools with houses and therfore the same but for the child both are obviously different

Nah, bonne the Jacksfilms tipping hat, where can I get this one
I aced the first part about sorting each founder, but I needed a bit more help on the secret house. Stopped as soon as they mentioned "something critical about the houses," then I nailed it! I give myself a solid B+!
you can still befriend people in different houses, right? RICHES.
Assuming they want to befriend you for true friendship, not your riches o_o
You may be the only member of your house, but you can still converse and make friends with members of the other houses, one would assume. And given that you just discovered the secret 5th house, it’s safe to assume everybody’s curious about you and will want to get to know you.
Also you would need to join up with another house for lessons.
but how many people in hp were best friends with ppl from diff house?
you'll likely get no friend (true) unless someone else joins as well

Alternatively, you could start the riddle like this; if Funflame and Imaginez founded Gianteye and Longmous (perhaps not respectively) and Miraculo and Rimbelby founded Meramaid and Longmous (perhaps not respectively), that means none of them could have founded Vidopnir, nor could have Septimus. That leaves us with Tremenda, Deepmire and Hypnotum. Deepmire wears a blue hat like Tremenda and it has stars like Hypnotum's, so she's out. Tremenda and Hypnotum founded Vidopnir.
*You shout "Minatuor" and nothing happens, everyone in the room stares at you with confusion, you realize there was a typo with the founder's names, now you have lost riches, fame, and glory, all because of a typo*
Some people just spells it how they say it. Not sure if it is a good humor. But i giggled.
Lol
The sorting hat, true to its word, sorts you into any house you choose, so you end up in a new house, Minatuor, without riches or friends.

I actually pulled off at least one of these riddles for once. Managed to figure out the founders but not the name, and when it was explained, I was like, *mind blown*
This riddle is well crafted, and a lot of fun to solve. Hints helped to, when we need a little nudge but not exactly the answer. Do keep the riddles coming, TED-Ed!
"No founder founded more than one house."
So who founded the fifth house?
I'm quessing the hat?
Moldemort
The founders
i guess whoever guessed the name is the founder since there's no one else is there yet 🥲
Marigold and the hat.

I normally just watch these videos without trying the puzzles just because I like learning about the methods of solving them, but this is the first one where I actually sat down and solved it on my own. I didn’t get the final house name, but I figured out the founders of each house

When I tried to guess the name of the fifth house, I was stumped. The clue said that the word was 8 letters and to look at the school crest which said "Magnificent Marigold Magical Macademy," my guess was "Marigold." I also thought that the names of the founders had something to do with the house name, but couldn't make the connection. Putting their names in order of the position the "M" appeared in their name, putting their respective house name under their name, and using the position of the "M" to mark a letter of their house name was a bit of a stretch.
Same I thought it was Marigold

Hey, it's okay if you don't get to answer the riddle yourself. More Ravenclaws are gonna have to go to their common room at some point, meaning that _eventually_ someone, or all of you working together, will be able to answer the riddle and let everyone in. Everyone else can learn something new, too. I guess that's one of the interesting perks of being a Ravenclaw; you're guaranteed to learn at least one thing everyday.
Lol
This is the only riddle I’ve ever solved from ted ed
@@guavagudetama6355 Same, but it's also only the first time I tried solving one and the the fourth video I ever saw from them, so.

Who says you can't have friends from the other houses? What you wouldn't have is roommates, and that's a major plus in my book. Have all the friends you want when you're out and about, but have a place of your own to go back to.

I like these type of puzzles cus, with a little bit of thinking and writings stuff down, I can actually do them!!
i love ted ed riddles and though i sometimes can't solve them or i take a while to do so, this one only took me a couple minutes lol
Normally I’d choose “Meramaid”, given my affinity for water, and beauty. But in this scenario, I’d choose the Minotaur house. Just think of all the perks! Not only do you have riches and untouched artifacts, but you also get the entire common room to yourself. So you can have all the peace and quiet you want. Sure, said common room is probably covered in cobwebs and dust from being undisturbed all these years, but one can assume the school’s cleaning staff can fix things up in a jiffy. And if you’re afraid about being lonely, don’t be. You may be the only member of your house, but you can still converse and make friends with members of the other houses, one would assume. And given that you just discovered the secret 5th house, it’s safe to assume everybody’s curious about you and will want to get to know you.
It’s easily the right answer, in my opinion.
I was literally just thinking all of this. Like, I won’t be lonely, cause I can make friends with my classmates. I will just be alone at night. Plus, it might be different to Hogwarts and let you have other classmates in your common room
@@lightningbolt6825 Yeah. Or maybe something like Fire Emblem: Three Houses, where people can transfer over to a different house if they do choose.

"Being in the secret house would come at a high price: loneliness."
Sad thing is, if you actually took your time and solved this one all by yourself, you most probably have no friends already
This hurts, lol.
Damn, why did this hit so hard? Lol

@@lin6171 Can you even consider them friends at that point? I imagine that would be even worse than just being lonely.

You know, I love how TED-Ed takes mundane puzzle frameworks, and twists them into interesting stories that you actually want to listen to, and then try and solve the riddle.
If education systems around the world confirmed to such methodology, then I can't even imagine how much more fun learning would become.

this riddle is a reference to the king midas story, where he chose richness over niot being lonely. his daughter was turned to gold and his wife didnt want to go near him all because he wanted the power for everything he touched to turn to gold.
hence why its called marigolds thingy, marigold being midas's daughter. pretty neat ngl
I bet turning everything into gold made the gold price plummet and gave a boost to inflation on any gold based currencies.
