Riddle 1: If they have to put their hand up if they see someone with a red dot, all will put their hand up. This because if you have a dot, you see one other guy with a dot. The guy who has no dots sees two guys with dots. So to be correct, all put their hands up.

Riddle 2: Call your friend to stay in the switch room.  :poke:

Riddle 1: Althought everyone sees a red dot on someone's forehead and raise their hands at the same time the hand raising had nothing to do with figuring who doesn't have a dot. The two guys with dots see the one that hasn't got a dot and each other so they both know who hasn't got a dot. The dotless person sees two guys with dots so he knows he hasn't got one. So in fact they all know who hasn't got a dot.

I think I figured it out...

Riddle 2: Turn on one switch and keep it on for about an minute, now turn that one off and flip one of the two remaining switches. Leave the switches room and try both of the bulbs that aren't lit, the one that corresponds with the first switch feels hot, the one that corresponds with the second switch is lit and the one that is controlled by the switch that you didn't flip is not lit neither is it hot/warm.
