The game's very simple. You just have to post a riddle, and the person who posts next should try answering it, and should post their own riddle.

Example:
Why do birds fly South in winter?

Yeah.. right, Leola! You worked that out... it took me a while to work it out myself when I first heard it. :D

Haha! Took me a couple times to get that one, Louise

:)

A really easy one...
I have a rather long neck and quite a pointy nose. I am able to fly, yet I have no wings. What am I?

Apr-27-2010 09:37

An arrow. (Answered it myself!)

Got a good one!

You have boxes arranged in such a way:
(I'll represent the boxes with letters.)

a a
b b
5
c c
d d

@% @%
The number 5 should be in the middle ^^
The sum of the numbers in both the DIAGONAL rows should be 25. (@% is 25 here.

You can use the numbers 1-9, without repeating them at all in any row!

Hey... sorry about that!
I meant the letters to be diagonal. Like
a, space, a
b, space, b
5 (in the middle)
c, space, c
d, space, d

May-18-2010 09:15

I'm not able to get it diagonal yet :(

Okay, so I'm going to represent 'space' with ***

a ********** a
**b ******b
******5
**c*******c
d************d

May-18-2010 10:26

Is this what you mean?

8**********9
**7******6
******5
**4*******3
1************2

Just then, someone came up from behind and put his hands over the Hatter’s eyes.

‘Guess who!’ said the newcomer in a thin, flat voice.

The Hatter froze for a moment and declared, rather coldly, ‘I have no use for practical jokers.’

‘Ha! Neither have I,’ retorted the stranger, still keeping his hands over the Hatter’s eyes.

At that, the Hatter seemed to accept the challenge of the game and started asking a series of questions in a manner that mingled hope with care.

Question: ‘Ahem. Would you, by chance, be in a black suit this evening?’

Answer: ‘I would, but not by chance, by design.’

Q. ‘I presume you’re a member of all the posh clubs?’

A. ‘Afraid not. Never even been invited.’

Q. ‘Surely you’re better than average?’

A. ‘Yes, indeed!’

Q. ‘Not spotted, I hope?’

A. ‘Knock wood.’

Q. ‘Married?’

A. ‘No, happy.’

Who is behind the Mad Hatter?
