Do I get any credits for knowing the origins of the riddle? Because if so, this is what the Sphinx says to Oedipus in the novel: Oedipus.

[blade666]

it was opedipus rex by sophacles, mind you. it was a greek tragedy/epic poem. in this oedipus kills his father (who was king of thebes) unknowingly, then travels to thebes, where the sphynx is eating the townspeople until someone answers its riddle. oedipus's now-widow mother (the queen) is the prize for being able to answer the riddle and save thebes. oedipus correctly answers the riddle, marrying his mother, and fulfilling a previous profecy.

we read it in lit.

Your in an enclosed room with no windows or doors (don't ask me how you got there). There is a table, a chair, and a mirror. How do you get out?

[hydrojakep]

wtf.

You use your 1337 sm skillz and do jackhammers on the wall untill there is a hole, and you jump out. Easy, Next?

[Squeek]

Why do I remember the most retarded things.

Look in the mirror to see what you saw.

Take the saw and cut the table in half.

Two halves make a whole (hole) and so you crawl out the hole. The chair wasn't needed.

[Squeek]

Ok. I have my reply riddle for you all. If you get it, consider yourself a genius.

1 4 7 11 15 18 21 24 27 ?

What comes next? It isn't 30 so lose that thought right now.

~Squeek

[The_Q]

29?

[Squeek]

'Fraid not. One hint I'll give you is that it is greater than 30.

Unless everybody starts guessing numbers, this one probably won't get solved.

~Squeek

[shoobafa]

heres an easy one but i think i should put it n e way. i hav 2 coins in my pocket and together they equal 35 sence but one of them isnt a dime. what 2 coins do i have in my pocket?

[shoobafa]

btw mrESqueek is the answer 2 ur riddle 31?

[fusi0n]

heres an easy one but i think i should put it n e way. i hav 2 coins in my pocket and together they equal 35 sence but one of them isnt a dime. what 2 coins do i have in my pocket?

A quarter and a dime. One isn't a dime, but the other one is.

[Squeek]

btw mrESqueek is the answer 2 ur riddle 31?

Nope, that ain't it either. Now everybody should know it's greater than 31.

I'd like to add that I'd like whomever guesses to say why they chose the number they did so it isn't random. Ok? Cool.

Nice work on the coin one fusi0n. Get another one rolling if you want.

~Squeek

[deposition]

Look in the mirror to see what you saw


How do you see what you saw?

.. just wanted to know incase this happens to me..

[noviceanimeartist]

I'm gonna think 35
35 -> add 8 for # of numbers behind it

[Squeek]

Err, no. 35 is not it. By your logic the puzzle would have looked like this:

1 2 4 7 11 16 22 29 ? = 37.

So, 35 is not the answer. Neither is 37.

And deposition, if you ever find yourself in that situation, use the method you posted on page one. That's the most logical way out. I remember this riddle from like 2nd grade. It was retarded then, it's still retarded now.

Uhh, the only thing I can think of is 31. But you said it's not.

147 158 147... unless it's actually 12 instead of 11 there, then it's 32.

[zildjian133]

You have a barrel, I put something in the barrel to make it lighter, you can't see it with your eye but it'll make it sink if you put it in water. What is it? A hint, its not helium or anything gas like that.

Where'd you get the answer? Was it online? I tried to get it from a book that nobody would know of so I could keep it internet-proof. Maybe I failed, or maybe you just were that good.

~Squeek

[The_Q]

1) The Trigun cat is Kuroneko
2)I have no nose. My riddles have caused many deaths through time, and one point of confusion is that they're all in rhyme. Who am I?

Q

[Squeek]

The Sphinx, The Q.

Plus, I do realize that the cat is Kuroneko. You're the second person to tell me that now. Yes, I was obsessed with Trigun and yes, I did hear when they called the cat Kuroneko. I think labelling it "Trigun Kitty" is much cooler.

~Squeek

[raminswr]

No books or internet was used. Just 10 minutes of scribbling :o
I'm just that good!

[AceOfSpades13]

I heard this a while back. Maybe someone knows it. You are at a crossroad. There is a city of liars and a city of honest people. You want to get to the honest city. You meet someone at the crossroad, but you don't know if he tells lies or the truth. What one question could you ask him to get him to reveal which road leads to the honest city?

[Tasselfoot]

ace of spades... i'm sure the same logic could be used for this, but i'm not interested in wasting the time... so i'll tell you the logic behind it instead. i know this as "there are 2 doors, one leading to where you want to go, one leading to where you don't want to go. each has a guardian. one guardian tells the truth, the other one lies. you are allowed to ask 1 question total to 1 guard. what question will get you to get out the correct door?"

the answer being... "what door would the other guard select?" ask either guard, and you'll get the correct answer... and then proceed to go through the door they told you not to go through. why? ask the guard that lies, and he'll tell you that the truthful guard will point you through the wrong door... so go through the opposite. ask the truthful guard, and he'll honestly tell you that the lying guard will tell you to go through the wrong door... either way, they'll tell you the wrong door. :)

i'm pretty sure the answer to your riddle will follow similar logic.



a riddle of my own: what is deaf, dumb, and blind yet always tells the truth. and, as i've told this before... its not a clock, nor justice.

[zildjian133]

my grandma

[flypie743]

time

[newkidusa]

if you're dumb then how could you tell the truth?

[Tasselfoot]

deaf, dumb, and blind is a way of saying: can't hear, can't speak, and can't see. dumb = can't speak.. not unintelligent. correct answer has yet to be given... besides, time is too... the answer to EVERY riddle.

[zajac]

love... tha answer is love... awwwwww......

[Tasselfoot]

no. love has certainly lied to me.

[Tank101]

i'm pretty sure the answer to your riddle will follow similar logic.


Well it doesn't exactly follow the same logic...

You ask to show you the town he lives in, if he lives in the city of liars, he won't tell you he lives there, he'll take you to the city of honest people, but if he lives in the city of honest people, he'll obviously tell the truth by taking you to the city of honest people, so either way you get taken home.

a riddle of my own: what is deaf, dumb, and blind yet always tells the truth. and, as i've told this before... its not a clock, nor justice.
It's a mirror!

[AceOfSpades13]

Just another riddle

An object that has no lid, hinges, or key but holds a golden treasure inside.

[Doug31]

Is it a wallet?

[Squeek]

Ace: It's an Egg.

~Squeek

[Tasselfoot]

esupin is right on my riddle. :)

[AceOfSpades13]

Yes, it is an egg. Try this one.

One day, a criminal was visited by the king on the day of his execution. In the middle of the public square, the king offered the criminal a chance for freedom. He presented two boxes to the criminal, and told the criminal that one box held a pearl, and the other held a black marble. He told the criminal that if he could choose the pearl, he could go free. But the criminal knew that the king was an evil man, and that both boxes contained black marbles. What can the criminal do to gain freedom?

[noviceanimeartist]

Switch a black marble with a pearl he kept in his pocket of course! Just kidding..
Actually I don't know..
-edit- Well actually, I think the king would have keep his word that there being a pearl there. When he chose a black pearl, he demanded to look at the other box, the king would refuse. The criminal quickly opened the box and there being another black pearl, the crowd finds out the king was lying when he said there was a pearl in one of the boxes. The criminal gets released. o_O well I dunno..

[flipmaster99]

He could say....
"In this box is the pearl, so obviously, the black marbles will be in the other box...."
And take off the box from the other marbles, which will lead to everyone assuming the pearls are under the first untouched box.

Complete the pattern and find the 3 blanks...

cha-ching! nice one.

[Tasselfoot]

can we get a reason for this? i figure it has something to do with the 1st letter of numbers, or something like that... but i'm curious as to what it is.

[Doug31]

Multiples of 5, Five, Ten, Fifteen, Twenty, etc.

[esupin]

esupin is right on my riddle.

nice.
*here's another one-
What breaks but never falls and what falls but never breaks?

[lightdarkness]

clouds break?
temp falls?

[esupin]

sort of close... the two are opposites, though.

[AceOfSpades13]

flipmaster99 was along the lines of the answer to the riddle, but for esupin, Dawn and Night im guessing. Night falls, dawn breaks and then falls into night again.

[esupin]

Yes! Good Job.

*What bites but never swallows?

[Doug31]

Is it frost?

[AceOfSpades13]

A Blizzard/Cold Wind?

[lightdarkness]

I think frost was correct.



Ok...

Click click bang bang click bang bang.
Who died?

[AceOfSpades13]

An innocent bystander?

[lightdarkness]

Nope.

[AceOfSpades13]

Another riddle.

There are two people, person A and person B. Person B is describing his relation to person A when he says "Brothers and Sisters I have none, but this man's father is my father's son. How is person A related to person B.

[flypie743]

Person B is the grandfather of person A...?

[Tasselfoot]

its his son.

[flypie743]

Yea I think Tasselfoot is correct....:( I read the question wrong

[AceSpades_Apprentice]

Yes, Tasselfoot was right. I still dont get the click click bang bang riddle tho.

[Tank101]

While everyone (including me) is trying to figure out LD's riddle, here's one I've been dying to tell.

The beginning of eternity
The end of time and space
The beginning of every end,
And the end of every place.

What is it?

[Doug31]

The letter e.

[Tank101]

Yep, I knew someone would get that early on.

[flypie743]

Click click bang bang click bang bang.
Who died?

The person who was shooting the gun?

[AceOfSpades13]

There must be something I'm missing, because this riddle is too vague, how many people are there, and are they shooting guns? How many guns would there be?

[Nonexistent_One]

Maybe... two criminals in the wild west are having a shootout, and they shoot each other--click click bang bang--and while they're both lying on the ground, the sheriff shoots them both--click bang bang.

Educated guess?

~NEO

[Tank101]

I have to bump this up because I'm dying to know the answer.

[Wayfaerer_]

Bumb'd again, we really need the answer!

In the mean time, I'd be surprised if someone got this quick.

1=3
2=3
3=5
4=4
5=4
6=3
7=6
8=5
9=4
10=3
11=6

It may not make sense but there is something that links them.

Bonus - Word Unscramble

OTXAOICNT

[Tasselfoot]

Way... the first one is simple. its the number of letters in each number. 1 had 3 letter, 10 has 3 letters, 9 has 4, etc.

the 2nd.... are you sure its a word? i couldn't come up with anything, so i ran it through 3 different jumble solvers online. none of them returned a word.

[aleco]

It looks like toxicant (is that a word?) with an extra o.

[Tasselfoot]

yea. i saw Toxic, bout couldn't fit it in with the aont

[Wayfaerer_]

Toxication is the answer, good job on the numbers one though, not many people get that one.

[aleco]

There's only one "i" in that scramble, sorry, you're wrong.

[emccky]

Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.

please don't try to look this up, it will ruin the riddle for you.

[Tasselfoot]

emccky... that riddle is amazingly old. and you yourself went and looked it up to find it.

there is no 1 answer to me. many people have different answers to it. there IS no other common word ending in -GRY, although there are 4-5 very obscure ones. one of the common answers to this riddle is "language"

[Tank101]

Here's a tough one..

In the edge of reason,
Where all is about,
You must answer,
When the hell does R2 come out???

[StarryXXXEyed]

I have a simple one here:
You're in the middle of a blizzard and you stumble upon a log cabin. You go inside, (there's no electricity) you see a candle, a match, some logs in the fire place and a latern. Which do you light first? :twisted:

[Tasselfoot]

why do i feel like this is the obvious answer and there is some trick to it.... but, you have to light the match first in order to light any of the others.

also, please stop using blue font.

[StarryXXXEyed]

Correct answer, and I like blue font!!

[dancer]

ok heres one i found in a book:
Round like an apple, deep like a cup, but all of the kings horses couldnt pull it up.

[dancer]

i guess u all give up by now its a well
its round
its deep
and its a hole, how do u pull up a hole? u cant

[Tasselfoot]

if you really want to be technical.... a well is defined by its brick/concrete foundation. it has solid walls and a floor (for the most part), so you could easily pull it out with enough manpower. with that said, you would still leave the shape and the water behind... but the well itself would be removed. it would just be a watery pit.

PS - i realized the answer had to be something stupid like a hole... didn't know exactly what, so i didn't post.

[dancer]

dude its old english u dont get technical
ok make thirty cents from 2 coins that one isnt a nickel

[UWSTopGun]

You need to learn how to spell properly I didn't even understand your riddle except for make 30cents in 2 coins which would be

1 quarter plus 1 nickel (or 5cents)

[Tasselfoot]

wow... i know 5 year olds that know the answer to that riddle.

sad.


here is a tough riddle:

You are given 5 bags. There are 10 beads in each of the bags. In four of the bags, the beads each weigh 10 kilograms. In the remaining bag, each bead weighs only 9 kilograms. All the bags and beads look identical. You must find out which bag has the lighter beads. The problem is that all the bags look identical and all the beads look identical. You can use a scale, but it has to be a single-tray scale, not a two-tray balance scale. Also, you may use the scale only once. How can you find out which bag has the lighter beads?

[StarryXXXEyed]

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?

[Wayfaerer_]

He wrote down the exact weight of the boy on a piece of paper. Obviously.

[UWSTopGun]

wow... i know 5 year olds that know the answer to that riddle.

sad.


I don't spend my time looking for riddles or telling riddles or have anything to do with them nor try and figure them out.

[Tasselfoot]

thats because you've yet to pass the mental capacity of said 5 year olds.

[StarryXXXEyed]

He wrote down the exact weight of the boy on a piece of paper. Obviously.


Not quite the right answer

[blahblah18]

speaking of mental capacity of 5 year-olds... he wrote "your exact weight"
and Tass to yours, I think I have a complicated way, but an easy way would be to dump out the contents of one bag, put it on the scale, and place one bead frmo each bag into the empty bag and see when it jumps differently, but I dont' think thats the answer you want :)

[emccky]

Place the bags in a row. Take one marble from the first bag, two from the second bag and so on. Use the scales to weigh all the marbles you have taken from the bags. If the number of grams ends in 9, it is the first bag with 9 gram marbles. The total for the other bags will end in 0 since 10s are being added. The single 9 shows up as the rightmost digit in the sum of all the weights. If the number of grams ends in 8, it is the second bag with the 9 gram marbles because 2 times 9 equals 18 and that will be added to the total producing a number ending in 8. A rightmost 7 means it is the third bag with the 9 gram marbles. In each case the rightmost digit reveals which bag contains the 9 gram marbles. My friend asked me this riddle, and I still remember the answer.

[Tank101]

Or you could put all 3 on the scale, take one off at a time, and see which one only subtracts 9 from the total weight, for example...

All 3 weigh 49 kilograms.
You take one off, now it weighs 39 kilograms, you know it's not that one.
You take another off, it's now 29 kilograms, you know it's not that one either.
You take another one off, it's now 20 kilograms, since it subtracted 9, then you know it's that sack.

Of course you could debate on whether 5 bags could fit on a single panel scale.

[Squeek]

Wow, this thread still exists?

Well, got this from an old English class book.

Some random guy decides it's time for his three random sons to get an inheritance. He gives each son 50 dollars and tells them to buy something that would fill a room with it.

The first son returns with $50 worth of feathers, but only manages about 33% of the room. The old guy empties the room and tells his son he's a failure.

The second son returns with $50 worth of hay, but only manages about 50% of the room. The old guy empties the room and tells his son he's a failure.

The third son returns with cash left over and manages to fill the room. The old man commends this son for being intelligent and gives him the house. Please to be explaining this.

~Squeek

[Jellidog]

The third son bought a candle and the candlelight filled the room.

P.S. I think a similar riddle was mentioned earlier.

[StarryXXXEyed]

What seven letter word is missing from the following, to make sense? A ------- surgeon was ------- to operate, because he had -------

[Tasselfoot]

emccky... the point is not to use google to find the answer, then C&P it... its to use your head.

i knew the answer to squeeks...

and, starry... the word would have to have 3 different meanings for 3 different parts of speech... since one is an adjective and one is a verb... plus 1 is past tense while the others aren't...

[Jellidog]

Here's a riddle I found at riddlenut.com:

My first is a number, my second another,
And each, I assure you, will rhyme with the other.
My first you will find is one-fifth of my second,
And truly my whole a long period reckoned.
Yet my first and my second (nay, think not I cozen),
When added together will make but two dozen.
How many am I?

[Tasselfoot]

hmm... 4 and 20. 4 is 1/5 of 20, 4+20=24... but they don't rhyme.


aha. 4 score!

[Jellidog]

Nice work Tass. That is correct :wink:

[Tasselfoot]

i can figure out about 85% of the riddles posted around the web.... they aren't that hard.

i used to have an oldschool D&D webbook that had about 600 riddles. THOSE were hard.

[Bahamut-X]

Who am I riddle:

I soar without wings, I see without eyes.
I've traveled the universe to and fro.
I've conquered the world, yet I've never been anywhere but home.
Who am I?

You'll probably get this Tass.

[Tasselfoot]

Imagination....

stop pulling them off of riddlenut. i've read most of the ones there and on the other mainstream riddle pages.

[g0ldenSun11]

I got an easy one:

A man live in an aparment (sp?) building that had 50 floors. He lived on the 50th floor. Every day in the morning the man would ride the elevator to the 1st floor and go to work, then come back at night. At night, he would ride the elevator to the 20th floor, then walk up the stairs of the rest of the 30 stories to his room. Why is that?

[Bahamut-X]

He was too short to reach the higher buttons on the elevator, so he could only go to certain floors.

[kibbel]

Because he was scared of pressing buttons that had numbers on them higher then 20.

[Bahamut-X]

Because he was scared of pressing buttons that had numbers on them higher then 20.

Kibbel, you are a moron.

[flyingsmeditor]

He use to be a lazy bum, his wife kicked him out of the house unless he walks up 30 slights of stairs in the afternoon....:)

[MonkeyFoo]

Stoled from some dude on some other forum:
Einstein's Riddle:

Einstein wrote this riddle last century and said that 98% of the world’s population would not be able to solve it.

Wut er u gunna du?

[The_Epidemic]

Solve this

This is an old Japanese kindergarten application-

Given the following what is 10+10?

1+1=0 2+2=0 3+3=0 4+4=2 5+5=0 6+6=2 7+7=0 8+8=4 9+9=2

10+10=?

i also have this in my profile....i said the person who gets it right wins credits :!:

[sammo123]

im gunna say 6

[jugglinguy]

0 or maybe 4

[fido123]

Is it 2?

[The_Epidemic]

nope ^.^

[jugglinguy]

8 then?

[The_Epidemic]

haha nope

[burningeyes88]

its 20

[jugglinguy]

its 20

I'm retarded.

[The_Epidemic]

lol not 20

[daringdaniel1111]

Is the answer 10?

[The_Epidemic]

not 10

[xplayfan]

Is the answer 1?

[sammo123]

3 or 5

[Engler]

Unsolvable because it doesn't follow any specific pattern?

[The_Epidemic]

3 or 5

nope and not 1

[bluguerrilla]

Psh, there is no answer.

dang, ninja'd

[The_Epidemic]

no its solvable but if someone gets it right by guessing you need to tell me why in order to win

i wouldnt put it on if there was no answer

[xplayfan]

The answer is x.

[Engler]

That's gay. I kwit.

[The_Epidemic]

you ppl are thinking too hard the answer is outside the circle

ill post the answer when everyone "kwits"

[bluguerrilla]

So we have to think outside of the circle. Not outside of the box?

the answer's not 2?

no, it's one.

Dangit, nm.

I'm sticking with 2.

[The_Epidemic]

So we have to think outside of the circle. Not outside of the box?

^.^ correct

[bluguerrilla]

If the answer isn't two then it doesn't make sense to me.

[customstuff]

10+10=?

The answer is ?

[muse42]

I'd say the answer is two because 10+10=two zeros. 8+8 there are 4 circles.

It's easy when you think about it...for awhile.

[phe0nixblade]

The answer is a number. I win because I said so. Gimme my ****ing credits.

[Engler]

How many credits are you giving to the winner? Probably 25 or something like that.

[customstuff]

I'd say the answer is two because 10+10=two zeros. 8+8 there are 4 circles.

It's easy when you think about it...for awhile.
What do you have to say about 4+4+2?

[The_Epidemic]

ok many are getting it right blueguerrilla and muse 42 have it good job



4+4+2=2 and 7+99+34+65+4+999+8=9

[muse42]

What do you have to say about 4+4+2?

There are two enclosed areas. Yes, that is what I meant.

[bluguerrilla]

bluguerrilla :-)

[The_Epidemic]

well at least i stumped a few for a while

all i could give muse and blu* was 443 each b/c i recently spent some

[bluguerrilla]

So, how many credits are we getting then?

[The_Epidemic]

its not much but its all i have

[OmgWtfItsALongNameOfDoom]

its 4 isnt it?

is it the number's number of divisors?

EDIT: maybe not since 9+9 is 2..

[The_Epidemic]

when i get more credits to wager ill post another riddle ^.^

[GuidoHunter]

Merged.
