In all honesty, Rylkan, I think you're over thinking the riddle. bluetongue.gif

I know. bluetongue.gif I agree with your answer, but I just was enjoying thinking of other ingenious ways out. bluetongue.gif

...open both doors and reflect the magnifying glass towards the dragon.

Think Rylkan already said it though.

CODE
The more I work out, the weaker I get.
I come in all sizes and colors, and several shapes.
Each of me has a name, a label. Be sure to get the right kind!
I can be used for many complicated machines, yet am found in childrens' toys around the world.

What am I?

Hint time, I guess.

Work out the ones you have, then try to see if there's a pattern to how the numbers increase.

Kind of got side tracked and forgot about this thread.

Anywho, basic process is to add two more than you added for the last iteration.

So,
-5,-3,1,7,15,25,37,51,67

So missing numbers are 7^2, 5, and 2.

I'm not entirely sure how you think 33+(2*2) = 67, but i'll give you the point because you've probably just typoed. But yeah, that was the pattern.

(Correct answer for the third one was 17.)


Scoreboard:
Tanny - 12.5
Rylkan - 4
Goaty - 3
UnrealBlight - 1.5
Zziggy - 1.5
Aaron - 1
Darkness - 1
Phalanx - 1

Riddle time. xD

You will know that I am coming
From the jingle of my bell,
But exactly who I am is not an easy thing to tell.

Children, they adore me
for they find me jolly,
but I do not see them when the halls are decked with holly.

My job often leaves me frozen,
I am a man that all should know,
But I do not do business in times of sleet or ice or snow.

I travel much on business,
But no reindeer haul me around,
I do all my traveling firmly on the ground.

I love the time of Christmas,
But that's not my vocational season,
And I assure that is because of a sound economic reason.

Who am I?
