Lockheed, I think it's time for you to reveal the correct answer.

 

Alright, I will give you a hint:

 

There is either no solution, or infinitely many solutions.

The letters OTTFFSSE stand for the numerals one to eight.

 

One

Two

Three

Four

Five

Six

Seven

Eight

 

So the next in the series would be N and T (Nine and Ten), etc.

That goes for all questions.

Sad thing is there's only a limited number of riddles in the world.

 

N T

 

There's also a limited number of wikipedia pages online, but if you want to read them all, you still ... well... you just can't.

 

At a rate of 600 words a minute, twenty-four hours a day, a person could read nearly 27,000,000 words in a month. In the month of July 2006, Wikipedia grew by over 30,000,000 words. Given this, it is impossible for any single reader to read all of Wikipedia's new content.

Well... I wouldn't say "impossible" because the readers can always extend their life spans by researching new methods within biology.

I think I got it.

 

OTTFFSSENT

 

Hah. I was the first. :D

 

(amazing that people (ritster73) actually go through all the trouble of making a profile on this forum, only to be the 10th person to post the same answer to this riddle... the fact that that happens puzzles me more than all the riddles together)
