#1
I can not be seen, I can not be felt.
I can not be heard I can not be smelt.
I fill deep pits up to the rim.
I can turn all situations grim.

What am I?


#2
What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?

What am I?


#3
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

What is it?


#4
A box without hinges, key or lid,
Yet golden treasure inside is hid.

What is it?


#5
Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.

What is it?


#6
What gets wet
the more it dries?

twice in a moment,
but never in a thousand years?

Waddles, give us a riddle.

[Wadling]

I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.

Can you answer this riddle?

(This one is a tad abstract however, it does make sense though. If you guess it, tell me how you came up with the answer.)

Oh, and no google, it defeats the purpose.

[BanHammor]

Sunn?

[Wadling]

Sunn?

Common answer, makes sense. But no, the Sun is not what I'm looking for.

[demonickilla]

number 4 is FRIEND SHIP.

I'm going to say Pressure or Alcohol like Hunter said, i got alcohol cos it make guys pee, and girls comb theit hair (it makes a mess of them and they want to fix it l8r) I make celebrities look stupid.
Pressure kind of fits them all except the Polar bear one

Since that riddle is impossible to answer I'll put three more up;


I spit like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I am long like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole.

What am I?

What force and strength cannot get through,
I with a gentle touch can do.
And many in the street would stand,
Were I not a friend at hand.

What am I?

I am only one color, but not one size,
Though I'm chained to the Earth, I can easily fly.
I am present in Sun, but not in rain,
I do no harm, I feel no pain.

What am I?


The colors have nothing to do with the riddles, they are just there to distinguish between each one. Also, no looking up the answers. Use the thing in between your ears.

[demonickilla]

Wadling the answer to your riddle is no you can't solve that riddle.

(The way i came up with it is that i could'nt solve it but then I noticed it did'nt say "What am I". It just said "Can you solve this riddle?".)

[Wadling]

Demonickilla wins!

[cokeman]

I am only one color, but not one size,
Though I'm chained to the Earth, I can easily fly.
I am present in Sun, but not in rain,
I do no harm, I feel no pain.

What am I?

The sky?

[Marrden]

The sky isn't chained to the Earth.

[...I'm not telling you!]

Demonickilla wins!

Danm.

[cokeman]

Three gods A, B, and C are called, in some order, True, False, and Random. True always speaks truly, False always speaks falsely, but whether Random speaks truly or falsely is a completely random matter. Your task is to determine the identities of A, B, and C by asking three yes-no questions; each question must be put to exactly one god. The gods understand English, but will answer all questions in their own language, in which the words for yes and no are 'da' and 'ja', in some order. You do not know which word means which.

[demonickilla]

to C: Am I human?

to B: Is earth real?

to A: Am i real?

[Marrden]

To A: Which one of you is False?

B: Which one of you is Random?

C: Which one of you is True?

[demonickilla]

Ummm Marrden, it says they have to be yes or no questions.

[ShadowDancer]

What force and strength cannot get through,
I with a gentle touch can do.
And many in the street would stand,
Were I not a friend at hand.

What am I?

A key.



I am only one color, but not one size,
Though I'm chained to the Earth, I can easily fly.
I am present in Sun, but not in rain,
I do no harm, I feel no pain.

What am I?


A shadow.

So easy. Don't know the first one though.

[...I'm not telling you!]

You're just mad cause you can't figure out the riddles. :P

Oh snap!

[Hunter_Killer]

[COLOR=DarkOrange] I spit like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I am long like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole.

What am I?


a snake.
it hisses, like cooking bacon
it is born in an egg
it is all ribs and back bone
it has no legs
it sheds its skin yet is still a snake
some snakes can be over 35 feet long
some snakes live underground

XD

A: Are you Human?

B: Is he correct?

C: Is "B" correct?

i think i had it earlier but meh...

[demonickilla]

Oh yeah I will try and figure your first one now!

AWWW WTF!!!!!! I WAS JUST ABOUT TO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT HUNTER KILLER!!!!!!!

[Hunter_Killer]

Win...

i took so long working on the A,B,C one...

[cokeman]

I don't believe anybody got the god riddle right yet, please, in addition to posting what questions you ask, tell which god is random, truthful, or untruthful, and post why your method works, remember you don't know their language...

[Hunter_Killer]

A: Are you Human?

B: Is the previous one correct?

C: Is the second one the god of randomness?

worst case:
A: yes - random or false
B: yes - random or false
C: yes or no - truth

[cokeman]

A: Are you Human?

B: Is the previous one correct?

C: Is the second one the god of randomness?

worst case:
A: yes - random or false
B: yes - random or false
C: yes or no - truth

No, for 1 the gods only answer "da" and "ja", and you don't know which means yes and which means no.Not only that but in your worst case you couldn't tell the random from the false, meaning you didn't solve it, you have to be sure of which god is which and leave nothing up to luck/guessing. Btw you don't have to ask each god a question.

p.s. This is thought to be the hardest riddle ever created.

[Hunter_Killer]

damn it this doesn;t work because i already know what those words mean in their foreign languages...
