Riddles |
|
I will post a riddle and the aim of the game is to answer the riddle.
Each correct riddle guessed will be worth 10 points + 5 bonus points if you can explain why that is the answer.
Each round will consist of 3 riddles and it's first come first serve on the points. If no one can get a certain riddle i'll post a clue, but the points will go down to 7. After that, if no one manages to get it i'll start a new round.
5 rounds will make 'a game' and then after each 'game' the member who has got the most points from this game wins a bonus 50 points.
Game 1 - Round 1
1) Not born, but from a Mother's body drawn, I hang until half of me is gone. I sleep in a cave until I grow old, then valued for my hardened gold. What am I?
2) "I was carried into a dark room, and set on fire. I wept, and then my head was cut off. What am I? "
3) What can go up a chimney down, but cannot go down a chimney up?
Have fun

Here is the reason for no. 2 - cheese - for the bonus points (as "me" forgot):
The Mother's body is the cow
"Half of me is gone" is the curds and whey being separated
Sleeping in a cave is maturing
The hardened gold is when it's ready to eat?

Just realised, Jones never explained his answers:
1) T is pronounced the same as tea
2) You called them Bob's mum and dad, therefore they have a kid called Bob
3) It has keys (the buttons), including a space (bar) and an enter key.
