Are you guys showing any answers to these, if you got them? I am going crazy trying to do these.

actually it only took me about 2 minutes

I looked up 'appropriate' in the Word thesaurus

there was only one 4 letter match

the rest was obvious then

haveing my name in there might have helped a little :c)

oh, well that makes me feel much better...:rolleyes:

during the two week period that it took us to figure it out, I (and multiple others) got 'mist', 'take', and 'stake' on 3 seperate occasions, but never put them together.

there was an additional hint on the original:

"45 is a curt thank you."

[shrugs] i'm still stumped by that one. 'ta'? go figure...

bah, suck ALL the fun out of it. seesh! :)

Okay, i think it is time for a new riddle.....
This one is my favorite, but i've already told a whole bunch of people, oh well

Four men sat down to play,
They played all night 'till break of day.
They played for gold and not for fun
With separate scores for everyone.
When they came to square accounts,
They all had played quite fair amounts.
Can you the paradox explain,
If no one lost, how could all gain?

next saturday will be a new riddle. answers to these riddles can be posted the friday before the new riddle gets posted.

(i.e. Saturday January 10 New Riddle, Friday January 16 answer to the January 10 gets posted. January 17 new riddle and well im sure you get the idea.) If your excessively busy building your robot and have an answer but no time to post it you may email it to me and i can post it for you with your name next to the answer OR have a fellow CD member whos on ure team post it.

Sounds complicated but it will take some of the stress away from the building season.

This would mean more money for all.

Am I right or just dumb?
