Okay so this game works like this:
Someone says a riddle the next one tries to answer it, if it is wrong next one can try after 3 failed attempts you will to tell the riddle.
Sounds good?
I'll give the first one:
We touch it, make it, it moves around us, yet we can't see it. what is it?
Have fun :)
-
Here's an tip:
It is infinitely big.
It has no color.
-
Matter?
-
Matter?
Close.
It has something to do i think with matter, yet it isn't matter.
-
Air?
-
Close to air.
1 more incorrect and i will tell :)
Another tip:
Air uses it to be here.
-
Okay, because of the lack of comments i suppose it was too hard?
the answer was: Space (room)
New riddle:
"Everything i devour, plants, tree's, rocks, humans, robots yet i can't be destroyed, only changed."
What am i?
I wish you good luck :)
-

Time?

Time?
Correct!
Is it okay if Snik is doing a riddle? after all he got the first possible answers?
-
Ya, for sure!
Go ahead, Snik!
-
Thanks guys...
but problem is I can't create any good riddle...
well, If you want: here is my try:
I can't spin well when I'm alive. You have to make me dead.
-
A log?
-
interesting thought :)
but no
-
a rock?
-
no.
one attempt left, acccording to rules
-
A tire?
(Logic: Made from rubber, which is made from oil, which came from living things. It doesn't spin until it's dead. :p )
-
no.
It's an egg. Raw and boiled.
action9000. Your riddle, please. :D
-
Ahh, nice. :)
Alright, let's see!
I started hot and became cooler
but was hot before "cool"...
yet you can find me hot to this day.
I am one result of an idea
and depending on needing,
You may seek me out or curse my very being.
-
I'll take a wild guess and say a star?
-
Ahh, nice. :)

2 riddles?
if so i think that:
Riddle 1: Lava/magma / the sun
Riddle 2: Imagination
-
wait. Is there two riddles? Oo
-
Nope, it's just one riddle. :)
I'll let you guys start again. Sorry for the confusion!
The answer is not anything you guys have posted yet.
-
*sudden thought*
Clock alarm?
:)
-
Nope! :)
-
will anybody else guess?
-
Heat / Wind?
-
Nope!
One more try!
-
Fire?
-
Nope, sorry! Good try!
I was looking for:
"A Lightbulb."
A quick explanation:
I started hot and became cooler -
Incandescent bulbs were replaced by cooler-glowing florescents and later LED bulbs, which are only barely warm to the touch.
but was hot before "cool"... -
The incandescent bulb was invented in the mid 1800s. The word "Cool" started popping up in culture in the jazz era, in the early/mid 1900s: the hot incandescent bulb came before the use of the word "cool".
yet you can find me hot to this day.
You can still go to a store and buy an incandescent light bulb. I've got a box of em a few feet away, as a matter of fact. :p
I am one result of an idea
As often depicted in cartoons, the lightbulb over the head is one result of a character getting an idea.
and depending on needing,
You may seek me out or curse my very being.
If you're in a dark place and need light, a lightbulb is amazing thing to have.
If, on the other hand, you're trying to sleep or having a glaring light shining on you, you may hate the very existence of that bulb.
Anyway, I'll let someone else give it a shot!
Whoever wants to, post up a riddle!
-
I'll do one.
When you don't know what I am, I am something. When you know what I am, I am nothing. What am I?
-
A mystery?
-
A mystery?
Nope! That's 1! Two tries left!
-
The unknown?
-
a riddle?
-
jorrdy12 is correct! Your turn, jorrdy12!
-
Scared of me humans are, but interesting i am.
-
*sits in the middle of lightning storm*
Lightning?..
-
Nope, they are interesting though.
2 more tries
-
I feel like we need more information. A LOT of things are scary and interesting.
-
Hint: i have no color nor am i seen.
-
Death?
-
Nope, Death is interesting though XD
1 attempt left.
-
hmm
maybe we should correct rules and increase number of attempst a bit?
-
Sure!
So these are the new rules (took me a whole 15 seconds to create them *thumps up*)
- 6 Attempts each riddle.
- you can give up to 2 hints.
- preferably a riddle you made, if you can't make one then you can search. (note: if you are not good at making riddles you can always try ^^spike )
- after 6 failed attempts to answer the riddle, you will tell the riddle.
- if noone can answer the riddle after the 6 attempts the answer closest to your answer will get to make a new one, if noone has closest then you can discuss who can create the new riddle.
- if noone answers for 4 - 6 days, you can give a hint, this will influence the amount hints you can give.
- the first hint will be given at 3 failed attempts. (it should still be hard!)
Hope these rules are a little better than i made before
:sducky
:goodluck
-
Sounds fair to me!

Ok! Never tried to make a riddle before, we'll see how it goes :lol
I wear a hood without a cloak
I am a king without a throne
-
Death?

...Cera?

Wouldn't that be queen though?
-

:3
lol
-
A lion?
-
A king cobra?
-
Justin1993 got it right! Man, you're winning all of my games :lol
-
Nice, Justin1993!
Sounds like I'm next, huh?
Let's see.....
I have been called many things, from cool to headgear.
Compared to the Sun or Earth, I have a short existence and
Much of me is quite useless to Man's existence.
You won't find the last riddle answer near me without Man's assistance.
-
The moon?
-
Nope!
5/6 attempts remaining!
-
Wait a sec... Canada? :lol
-
Ha! Nicely done Darkwolf! :lol
You're up!
-
That was a funny one :p
Next:
Poor Darwin didn't have a clue
Why I have a hundred eyes but only use two
-
I guess that was a bit too obscure :lol
Because we're on day 4 since posting, I'll give a hint!
Some humans are said to act like me
When they're rich in pomp and foppery
-
flies?
(http://www.betterphoto.com/uploads/processed/0023/0507211541411hpim5076b.jpg)
these ones,
because that's literally a saying in my country/language,
i literally didn't have a clue a new riddle existed in this topic.
'je lijkt wel een vlieg!'
Translated: 'You act like a fly!'
-
this is what I wanted to post, but I was confused by "only use two"
-
Nope! That's an interesting saying, though! I don't think we have one like that here.
5/6 guesses left.
-
Poor Darwin didn't have a clue
Why I have a hundred eyes but only use two
Some humans are said to act like me
When they're rich in pomp and foppery
chickens?
People can act like chickens (cowards)
i must say though, this riddle is gud.
-
stupid me...
peacock?
-
Yep, Snik got it! Sorry, the first reference may have been a bit obscure for anyone who hasn't studied natural history :oops
-
Let's see which riddle Snik has prepared for us ey? haha
Still Darkwolf it was a great riddle, maybe good for learning too.
So Snik :goodluck
-
Now I understand riddle was quite easy. But I completely forgot about peacocks and thought about butterfly. eyes... <_<
----------------
For some reason, I can't make original riddle right now...
Who wants to take a torch from me? :)
-
I guess I'll go again, then :D
This one might be a bit specific.
I have no mouth upon my head
While I'm alive, I'm nearly dead
I guard life's precious brevity
With tails that fool my enemies
-
I broke my mind...
small hint?
-
Hmmmm let's see!
Before I die I'll lay my young
Beneath the leaves of trees
And when they hatch not one of them
Will look a thing like me
-
It's time for a revival! :celebrate :cheers
Since it has been a while, I'll make the next riddle. I believe the answer to darkwolf's riddle is "butterfly."
Okay, here's the riddle:
I am as prevalent as my name suggests
I'll find a corpse at your behest
A vision of prehistory, and a neck of length
A fearsome bite of dismembering strength
-
chainsaw?
-
Hmmm, okay that's tough!
As prevalent as the name suggests...that's really throwing me off! :p
A sword?
-
Nope nope. I'll give more hints based on your guesses.
Unlike a chainsaw I am toothless
I am only metal in my natural fierceness
-
Shovel?
-
Nope. The rules say 3 guesses but that's far too low. I say 10.
-
We can make it 10. :)
-
(it was a kind of moth, but I think I made it too specific and threw people off :oops )
Toothless with a long neck and dismembering bite, this one is tough.
Plesiosaur? Did they have teeth? :lol
-
:lol They did.
Another clue:
Unlike others of my kind
My passive protection leaves a lot to be desired
-
bump?
I have no idea.
-
bump again?
-
Okay a couple more clues and then I'll reveal the answer to move the game along.
I stay in water for most of my life
You might see me on land when searching for a new home or burying organic vessels carrying the next generation
-
Some kind of crab?
-
that grass that grows on water and that looks like simple harmless usual grass, but can cut your skin like blade, and if you look closer at it, it looks like saw? :rolleyes:
-
Not a crab, and I know what kind of grass you are talking about snik. I walked through some once... yowch
And now for the big reveal...
The answer is... the common snapping turtle!
-
So...who's next? :unsure:
-
...
..
.
?
-
It seems that in case nobody guesses the riddle right, anyone can take the next one. This is my first riddle so I hope it's at least somewhat good. :p
Uninvited I come,
formless I hide,
threat I am on both land and sea
but never am I opposed.
-
dust? :unsure:
-
Nope. :D
-
can I ask little question? I have a question: I translate "opposed" as "something that makes threat", but it was said "threat I am" before. How so? Is it part of puzzle, or I translated wrong?
-
I see opposed here as meaning that no one can do anything to contain the object of the riddle even if it is a threat to them. In other words, it can be dangerous in a way but there's pretty much nothing that can be done about it (if that makes any sense). :p
-
lava?
-
I'm sorry but that's not it.
-
Umm... Bump?
-
if no ones trying, time for a stupid guess, I guess. :p
Time? It can be dangerous to us, taking it's toll on us, and taking those we love away from us, but there's nothing we can do about it.
EDIT: Didn't even see the original riddle, just your reply to Snik's question, but I guess my guess still stands. time doesn't have a form, and it's a threat on land and sea, and it comes whether you want it to or not.
-
Hmm, an interesting and actually logical answer but that's not what I had in mind. The correct answer isn't as abstract, in fact it can be seen. :p The guess wasn't stupid at all as I doubt the riddle is really great either. It's my first one. :lol:
-
Hmm, is it pollution?
-
That guess is actually quite close but not the thing I was looking for. ;)
-
electricity?
-
Nope, that was a bit further away from the answer. :sducky
-
storm/tsunami?
-
Nope and there has been more than three attempts. Should I reveal the answer? :unsure:
-
Well, seeing there are no more guesses, the answer is mist. Very original, I know. :p Justin's answer was the closest one so he may continue if he wants to but otherwise, anyone can take the next turn. :)
-

Oh, if we could only just live in a land before that thing! :lol :lol
-
*waits for Justin's riddle*
-
bump
-
bump?
-
бамп?
-
I think maybe you should do the next one.
-
Decided to bump some old games in hopes to revive them.
Does anybody want to make a riddle? :D
I love to solve riddles!!! Yep-yep-yep!
