Kyrisch Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Here's a fun game that everyone can play. One person starts with a riddle, and gives everyone a week to try to guess the answer. Whoever guesses first gets to post their own riddle, and it goes on and on. If no one can get the riddle after a week, the answer will be posted along with a new riddle. Here's the starter: You use a knife to cut my head then weep beside when I am dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walden Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Someone explain the white one to me. I think it has something to do with the poles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 when you`re at the north pole the only direction you can head is south, from there you may then travel east or west, but if you travel north again you`ll end up where you started from, having walked in a triangle. the most likely color of a bear in the north pole is White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walden Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 YT, I dont think you're supposed to put spaced between the brackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrisch Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 And you need to put [/hide] at the end. Am I right, Jordan? If I am, I get to post the next riddle because I posted before YT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Haha, YT sorry if I confused you with the tags earlier. Yeah, take the spaces out and put the one at the end like the two above said. Kyrisch, I'm going to have to give this to YT. YT had the correct answer, though banister was close. He hasn't given a riddle yet, might as well let him go. But for future refrence you might need to make a rule about stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YT2095 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Newtonian is correct, it`s your turn now. and Kyrisch I did not forget, I was simply away for a while, PATIENCE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 they dont weigh the same the pound of feathers weighs more because gold and feathers are not weighed using the same measurement. Not quite. Although gold would be measured in troy pounds and feathers in avoirdupois pounds, when comparing the two you can only assume that the person who measured them out would not be stupid enough to use two separate scales.

Lance Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 "If neither "avoirdupois" nor "troy" is specified, the international pound (avoirdupois) is meant and is by law the only proper definition in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada;" Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
