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

I understand, but it does make a difference seeing the riddle was a play on words Grix.
Also, I was too late for the murder mystery. B*lls.

What they did was they gave him a magazine to read and an Ipod to listen to, then they waited until there was a spark from the Ipod, which under normal circumstances, with a well chosen accomplice, could consume an entire barn but this is kind of a damp environment so they suddenly doused him in petrol from the thermos and he was burned alive.

The magazine was wet because.. they were in a sauna.

But yes, everything else was to lead you astray. If I had just said 'thermos' then it would be a bit more obvious

So what was the Ipod for and why was the magazine wet? Or is that just to lead you astray?

Correct answer!

I didn't want to give many clues away as it's fun to work things out.

Ah, now that reminds me of Bad Girls. Ice blade, the perfect weapon.

I think I remember this one. Doesn't the person with the thermos have an ice blade or something sharp made of ice hidden inside and he stabs the guy and then it melts, leaving no evidence?

The thermos contained a liquid form of a poisonous gas?

The men worked together to kill the victim, that's why none of them have any info. One tipped the thermos contents onto the coals while the magazine and iPod were offered to the victim to distract his attention. The men made a hasty exit, then entered at a safer time to retrieve the iPod and magazine.

That fits I think, but it's not very concise.
