read the riddle CAREFULLY

Embladyne · 01-23-2005, 04:53 PM

Now I'm on the fifth...does anyone have any ideas?
edit: ah, got it...six is very strange..not sure what it's answer is yet
p.s. got it...now i'm on #8
if you want me to post the answers...spoiler style, I can

like this

Numbers 2-4 were simple. 1 seems the hardest. Now I'm on 6, which is weird.

I've gotta hand it to Bilbo.

Here's the answers:
4: shoe
5: stars
6: fire

Why did Entmoot's spoiler feature change? It used to be a grey bar you had to highlight to read the grey text in it. Now it's just an Enter key and slight indent in plain view.

Um....it's still a grey bar you have to highlight...at least for me...
here's 7:ship
8:candle
9:glove
#10 is the last one, so I think people should be able to find it themselves....it's not really hard. So, good luck!!

It depends on your webbrowser. Firefox, for one, shows the spoilered text like plain text while Internet Explorer doesn't.

I figured out 4,5 and 6 all on my own. I'm so proud of myself.

Well you have WAY too much free time, lol

Ah, there you go. I use firefox.

...and still can't get #7.

I take back what I said about 1, because this is clearly the hardest...

Finally! By Iluvatar! I've been pondering the answers to this stupid game all day long. But, I finally did it. I solved ever single riddle without any hint except for number one- I accidentally saw the answer. But, I had already tried "path" so I pretty much had the right idea. I thought the hardest one was 9, but 7 and 8 took me a while too. All the rest I got pretty much right away.

I think this thing took a couple of years off my life though. Wise were Spock's warnings of high blood pressure. He shall be known as Spock the sagacious hence.
