ok, u can, its just that im taking time difference into consideration. i could post a riddle, then you answer it, then i put up another, and you get it again...... etc... etc... just coz your on at the same time as me.
what about the other people, that come on during australias night time (i dont come on at night, dont know about you guys), while its day time for many other people, those people only get 1 riddle, and then come back the next day, and your on, and its the same as the day b4.

i was just trying to make it a little fairer, so other people get a chance to get some points, thats all

im letting you post, GM8

sry bout that

Okay,

There are two different answers for this question. The boy could have been told to simply turn the door knob since he was only turning the key, OR he could have been told that the door was already unlocked, implying that he was locking the door rather than unlocking it.

Hmmmm,

Perhaps he needed to push the door rather than pull it?

heres the last riddle of the day:
conf.gif thinking... thinking.... must make it a hard one...... conf.gif conf.gif


A fit young man died on a wide, flat grassy path 200 feet from a gate. Other than his clothes, all he had with him was a stick. He was not ill in any way , did not suffer a heart attack or stroke, and was not murdered or otherwise harmed by anyone.

How did he die??? conf.gif conf.gif conf.gif

Hmmm,

This one is hard, but I'm going to make my first guess and say that he killed himself.

there are many different possible answers

Fell into a hole
starvation
dehydration
severe heat stroke
or my favorite, he fell from the top of the wall of the gate, and died

That's a good guess, you're prob right, but I have to guess anyway.
The stick was a stick of dynamite?

wow, all pretty good guesses

what im about to say will, give it away

Gen. Warthog was VERY close when he said he was involved in a stampede.
but think about it, what is a long, flat, wide, grassy path used for, and at the START there is a gate?????

if i know you guys, very smart, and quick, youll get it straight away!

yeah, ill accept that answer

the guy died in a horse race
eg. fell off his horse and got trampled by the horses behind him

SCOREBOARD:
polarbird111= 3
Gen. Warthog = 3
Amateur123 = 1
GM8 = 3

A man lived alone in a house for 3 months. He had no visitors and never left the house. one night he turned off the lights and left the house. he was never seen again. but his exit resulted in 100 people dying.

how was that????

THIS IS HARD!!!!!
