Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.07 03:31:00 - [1] - Quote Terry Webber wrote: You are correct! Here's a challenging one: I am the beginning of the end, and the end of time and space. I am essential to creation, and I surround every place. What am I? The letter 'e'. PS: "We use that in every day speech but it's not technically correct" suggests that we aren't using every day language in the formation of our riddles. If that's the desired implication then [citation needed].

If that's the desired implication then [citation needed]. You are correct! I guess it wasn't that challenging. Here's a new one: What always runs but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed but never sleeps, has a mouth but never eats? A river.

Here's a new one: What always runs but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed but never sleeps, has a mouth but never eats? A river. That was fast. You are correct! Here's another riddle: The following number is the only one of its kind: 8,549,176,320. Can you figure out what is so special about it? Try to answer this without googling it. I know that one from elsewhere, so I won't answer it.

That same description applies to every possible rearrangement of the digits in that number which has 0 at the end.

Here's a new one: I have two arms, but fingers none. I have two feet, but cannot run. I carry well, but I have found I carry best with my feet off the ground. What am I? A wheelbarrow.
Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.13 02:47:00 - [6] - Quote Compare it to anything which is longer than it is.
Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.17 23:37:00 - [7] - Quote Letter is the only word which does not make another word when spelled backwards.
Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.18 23:11:00 - [8] - Quote Terry Webber wrote: You are correct, Zat! Better luck next time, GM Unicorn. Here's another riddle: 2 fathers and 2 sons go fishing. Each of them catches one fish. So why do they bring home only 3 fish? One fish each, three fish, means we have three people, we'll call them A, B and C. A is B's father. B is C's father. (A is C's grandfather). That's two fathers. B is A's son. C is B's son. (C is A's grandson). That's two sons. Either that or they lose one of the fish on the way home.

Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.19 20:37:00 - [10] - Quote Terry Webber wrote: Zat Earthshatter wrote: Terry Webber wrote: What do the letter 't' and an island have in common? They're both in the middle of water You are correct! Here's another riddle: Paul's height is six feet, he's an assistant at a butcher's shop, and wears size 9 shoes. What does he weigh? Meat.

Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.21 01:28:00 - [11] - Quote General Tiberius1 wrote: highly ambigous, any question could suffice. you caould simply ask which gender you are, the one that gets it correct leads to the city of truth Yeah, this is a poorly constructed riddle. I think for it to work as a riddle, whether the door lies or not needs to be separate from whether it is the correct door or not.
Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 161	Posted - 2013.02.21 22:25:00 - [12] - Quote Terry Webber wrote: Terry Webber wrote: You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth? Everyone is correct! Here's another riddle to finish off your day: Arnold Schwarzenegger has a big one Michael J. Fox has a small one Madonna doesn't have one The Pope has one but he never uses it Bill Clinton Has one and he uses it all the time! What is it? A last name?
Mithridates VI New Eden Research Foundation 171	Posted - 2013.02.26 00:06:00 - [13] - Quote "A bird" has an imprecise weight. Be more specific.
Mithridates VI The Southern Legion 244	Posted - 2013.03.05 23:01:00 - [14] - Quote That is another ridiculously vague one. I know the answer you're looking for and am not going to give it but its equally as complex as situations such as: The woman was on life support and listening to the radio when the power went out and the backup generators failed. She was a spider on a chair in a game of musical chairs. When the music stopped, one of the children sat on her and squashed her. She was a spinning ballarina in a music box. When the box was closed, the music stopped and she "died" (i.e. stopped moving) She was a blind swimmer, who swam out from her boat every day. She played a radio in her boat so she knew where to swim to at the end of the day. When the transmission cut out, she could no longer find her boat and drowned.
Mithridates VI Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 363	Posted - 2013.03.19 10:05:00 - [15] - Quote Again, there are so many possible correct answers to that riddle, making the "correct" one an arbitrarily selected one of those possibilities.
