Basically someone posts a riddle, if you know the answer, you post the answer along with another riddle. You'll recieve 1 point for each one you get right, the names will be place on the score board, in the order of the most points.

Rules
1. Only one answer per member per question.
2. Once a question gets five wrong answers a new one will be set.
3. If a riddle isn't solved after a day, a new one will be set.
4. Don't use the Internet to find the answer. However, if you're to set the question, you may.
5. I'll decide who gets the point (by this, I mean, if you argue with me, I'll reset your score)
6. You can ask questions, within reason.
7. Rules 1 and 2 are lifted if the riddle contains a good few paragraphs.
8. If a riddle needs to be set, anyone can set them.


Current riddle:
[B]Please set a question
Current answer(s) to be checked:
N/A[/B]




[B]Scores:
Chaos - 5
Biggie Little Jr - 3
tnc - 2
Sunflower - 2
Revolver Ocelot - 2
Grandprix - 2
Grix Thraves - 2
Bob_The_Moose - 2
@ngeI - 1
Timmargh - 1

Wouldn't the 9th snail be starting on the path when the 1st one departs the path?

Well, I didn't get the answer myself. But here's what is said:

Twenty-five minutes. If the path is wide enough to accommodate 8 of the 10 snails then the first snail will be leaving the path as the tenth snail is starting onto the path. Using that information you can simply divide the full 50 minutes by 2.

But that never seemed right to me.

I'll guess at 25 minutes, because two lots of snails have to cross, because there are moe than 8 snails, which is al the path can accomodate at one time.
