Five men sat down to play
They played all night, till the break of day They played for money, not for fun with different scores for each one and when they finished, and made a count each had made an equal ammount can you then, this anomoly explain: if none of them lost, how did all of them gain? Two women walk into a bank to apply jointly for a loan. They are the same height, build, and they look perfectly identical. Upon reading their applications, the banker notices that the women are both single, they have the same last name, and were born on the same month, of the same day, of the same year. "Wow, you must be twins!" He says. To which the ladies reply (in unison) "No, we're not" And theyre telling the truth!

I'm still thinking about the five men and what they got up to all night. All I can figure so far is that the five of them were part of a team playing for some sort of jackpot to be shared equally. So although they all scored differently, their scores combined meant they'd won the prize. Just haven't sussed the scenario yet.
As to those two young ladies, they are two of triplets, or quads, or quintuplets. So they are not twins but part of a bigger multiple birth.
We're having a laugh!

The men were professional musicians.
There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary numbers, and those who don't.

The word 'scores' could apply to music.
Usually the parts are copied from the score, and the conductor has the score at his podium so he can see where the different instruments are at one view.

The Doc got the twins riddle, and Alan Jackson creamed the 'men at play ' riddle!! Honorable mention to Mr. Townsend for at least deducing the 'scores' wordplay. More specificly, the men are 5 buskers, sitting at different street corners, with different scores of music.
I'll get you all next time!!!
