Okay, so here's how the game will work. I'll start off by posting a riddle, and the person who answers it correctly will then post a new riddle. Don't post a new riddle unless you are absolutely certain that you have answered the previous riddle correctly. If, however, a riddle is posted by someone who answered incorrectly, just go with the flow. I'd rather not start up a big fuss.

Anywhoo...

MY guess is

She rode is the girl
and then she is the dog.



Drew has the riddle. So check the post above.
Magic My Mom
S.O.F got it right. The dog's name was Then She.

The glass?

(I'm sure I'm wrong so no riddle today, guyz.)

I believe it is a fish. (Or whatever was in a bowl or something.)

QUOTE (Riddle number #4)
A farmer in California owns a beautiful pear tree. He supplies the fruit to a nearby grocery store. The store owner has called the farmer to see how much fruit is available for him to purchase. The farmer knows that the main trunk has 24 branches. Each branch has exactly 12 boughs and each bough has exactly 6 twigs. Since each twig bears one piece of fruit, how many plums will the farmer be able to deliver?
Drew the Dragonslayer
it was a pear tree, not a plum tree, no plums for you.

It's the sun, correct?

I'm fairly sure I am right, but I have no riddles. Next poster's riddle is the new one, if I am correct.

In that case...
QUOTE
Three men are taken out of prison by the king, because he wants to give the smartest one the chance to get out. He puts them in a line, and they all face in the same direction. (One man can't see the one behind them.) The king then puts a hat on each of the prisoner's heads. The hats are:

<--Men-are-facing-this-way--- Black White Black

Then the king says, "I have put a hat on your head. The hat's color is either black or white. All of your hats are NOT the same color. You may not talk or communicate with each other in any way whatsoever.
So, after a few minutes, where all three of the men did not move, speak, or communicate, the man in the middle spoke up. He said, "My hat is white." He did not guess. How did he figure out his hat color?


My best riddle.. nobody can solve it >:3
Rachel Elizabeth Dare
He saw the hat of the person infront of him and it was black? So he assumed it was white? Or he looked up and saw that his hat was white. Or, or, or, he saw the King put it on him.

If that's right...

You want to buy something from a store. It costs 97 dollars. You borrow 50 dollars from your father and you borrow another 50 from you mother. You go and buy it. You get 3 dollars as change. You give 1 dollar to your father, and 1 dollar to your mother. Now you owe them 49 dollars each. Yet, 49 + 49 is 98, add the one you have, 99. So where's the other dollar that made it 100?

Aha! Accidentally found the answer while looking at a riddle site.

The white hat guy (which I will now refer to as WHG) knew the answer because the guy behind him didn't say anything. If the WHG and the guy infront of him had the same color hat, the guy from his back would say something. But the guy behind him didn't know. So WHG knew that the guy infront of him had a black hat, and since they all had different colored hats, he now knew that he was the one with the white hat.

P.S. I'm sure about this, so:
