Riddle (noun):
1. A question or statement requiring thought to answer or understand; a conundrum.
2. One that is perplexing; an enigma.

--------------------
Look! I know you and I have never really "connected." Maybe that's because you are relentlessly annoying or maybe it's my fault because I can't tolerate relentlessly annoying people. I don't know!

Just did the playoff, eak227 is eliminated.

Oh by the way, as said in previous rounds, you can pay a point for me to reveal what one of the words is.

ok, this round is over. The answer was, 30 days in April, June, September, October. Behold the almighty standings...

mightyshortadam-29
zaphod42-28
HyperV-28
Jeffman2k4-25

New Riddle: A man must carry a fox, a goat and a carrot across the river. He can only carry ONE thing with him at a time. The problem is the fox must not be left alone with the goat or it will eat the goat. Likewise, the goat will eat the carrot if they are left by themselves. The man must be around to stop them from eating their favorite dish.
How would you do it?

And just to clarify, he can go across the river by himself.

I can safely say that's not the answer. Hate to be anal about it, but please don't post answers, right or wrong. Confused - is MrNiceGuy still taking over the old thread?

To stay four hours is devotion.
To stay six is tough.
To stay till midnight and eat pizza with CYA all over your hands is sheer insanity! (what we do at VHS before competition)

He hasn't been back on in forever, and the reason I haven't posted the answer yet is I have to clarify something(in case some people were wondering).

Just to give you guys an idea, the answer has been clarified, but due to someone being able to have an unfair advantage, I'm going to wait to put up the answers and put up the new riddle. Oh, and the people who are competiting don't need to know the answer for the most part, so from now on, if you want to know the answer, PM me.

Finally I can put up the new one. Here's the standings:

mightyshortadam-31
zaphod42-31
HyperV-30
Jeffman2k4-27

And again, just to clarify for what happened last round, only these 4 can answer, and don't post, it would give it away.

New Riddle: This works like the brain teasers earlier in that topic, sound it out to get the name. To make it easier, this is a place.

This round is over. Contestants and viewers...the standings...

mightyshortadam-36
HyperV-35
zaphod42-34
Jeffman2k4-31

New Riddle: At a local bar, three friends, Mr. Green, Mr. Red and Mr. Blue, were having a drink. One man was wearing a red suit; one a green suit; and the other a blue suit. "Have you noticed," said the man the blue suit, "that although our suits have colors corresponding to our names, not one of us is wearing a suit that matches our own names?" Mr. Red looked at the other two and said, "You're absolutely correct."

What color suit is each man wearing?

Congrats to everybody, especially zaphod and mightyshortadam. I agree - that was tons of fun! Think we'll have more riddle contests soon?
