The Game, you're wrong. Also, Buck: He's either dreaming or playing a game.

Come on, keep guessing, guys!

(Also, everyone should provide solution to his riddles. Here are my, but remember that it's not fun to look at them):

EDIT: Actually, PM me if you want solutions.

Putting the answers in black bars? I don't mind doing that, but no looking unless you really want to: You looked didn't you? If you want an answer you've gotta PM me. These bars do the opposite of what they are supposed to.

If you look, that's as good as cheating however!

Actually, Aaron, I changed my mind about my answers, because a lot of people won't be able to resist to look....

Anyway, devils: All of them are boys - the other half is boys, too.

Yay, I solved one!

Okay, another one: The more you add to it, the smaller it gets - the more you take away, the bigger it gets. What is it?
Another one: The more you feed it, the hungrier it gets - once it eats all the food, it dies. What is it?

Got that right, devils. Now solve the second one :twisted:!
There are 2 men in a room.
There is no way in or out of the room but there is a supply of oxygen that will last forever.
There is only a mirror in the room, beside the 2 men.
The second man is standing behind the first man.
The first man looks into the mirror and realises he is going to die.
The man who looked in the mirror recognized that the first man is from some ancient tribe that still does cannibalism?

Okay, last one for today: A man builds a house with 4 walls. All walls point to the south. A big bear is getting closer to the house. What color does the bear have?

The bear is white--it's a polar bear because the only way all walls point to the south is if the house is at the North Pole, where the only bears are polar bears.

well when you give the answer it makes sense.
I didn't get the 'what color did the bear have' but now that i think about it, he obviously meant 'what color was the bear?'

Buckdida wrote:A pilot is on a normal trip, flying through the air, when he gets hungry and decides to eat some lunch. He abandons his charted flight course and preforms daring acrobatics while eating his lunch, remaining in full control. Later, the pilot is flying again when he sees another pilot overhead, on a direct crash course with him. Being smaller, our pilot wants to avoid the crash at all costs, so he dive bombs into a forest, crashing though the trees, but later, is easily able to take off again, with no signs of damage. Far later, night falls, so our pilot decides to rest. He shuts off the control panel and the wings, but leaves the engine running to his benefit.

How is all of this possible?
Either what others said and it is a game or you are talking about two different pilots.

Hmm, none of you have gotten mine. One person was close, but not quite.

Here's another hint: The pilot has landing gear with a sharp textured grip, allowing him to land where other pilots can not.

Two theories to Buck's riddle:
The pilot is a soldier in one of those army planes that can land and take off vertically. With such a plane, this kind of thing would be physically possible, I think...

The plane is remote-controlled. The "pilot" is a kid on the ground.

Also, Chewy, that's the right answer, congratulations :). And The Game, sorry for my English.

I still think it's some kind of bug Buck is talking about :> Crashdiving into the forest but able to fly again later, a bug could do that, a smaller bug meets a bird high up in the air, he doesn't want to get eaten or whatever, that's just what I think and I dunno :<

A boy goes to a carnival, and he sees a rather interesting looking man (Who works there). He goes to him, and the man says "If I write your exact weight on a paper, you will give me $50. If I fail, I will give you $50. Agreed?"
The boy looked around and saw no scales. He agreed to the bet, thinking that even if the man writes his exact weight, he'll say that he weights more or less than that. After the man showed what he wrote, the boy had to pay the $50. How? Why did the man win the bet?

Maybe he threatened the boy? If he doesn't give him the money, he'll do something to him or his family (No specifics!)

I was gonna say that Chewy! Oh well, at least you know I was thinking the same answer. (There's no answer yet, I'm just saying I had the same guess).

And Buck, is the pilot like a spoon feeding a baby in a long metaphor?

Lastly, mine still isn't answered! Now I'm gonna give away the riddle with a massive hint.

Who says the first man can see the other man in the mirror?

Ding ding ding!!! We have a winner!
So, what about my other riddles? The man in the room without doors and windows, the killer, and the "The more you feed it, the hungrier it gets - once it eats all the food, it dies. What is it?".

Aaron, I give up. Please PM me with the answer.

Okay, since ya'll so slow in solving my riddle I'll post the answer here, if you don't want it, don't look!

GUh I FAILED twice, okay so here it comes now :3

(think of the clock!)Dan is 11, two less than Janette who is 1, but also 13. Dean is two more than Janette, 15 / 3 and Anna is 3 more than Dean, 18 but also less than Dan, 6! So Dean is 15 (or 3, duh ;p)

Does it make sense now?:3

Uhm, I originally saw it one of my math books when abit younger :3 (Was in swedish, and I had pretty much forgotten it) Remembered it slightly when I saw riddles in the jokes thread, and after a while I got it, but I had to translate it, (not very hard though)

But yeah, first time I saw it I was like "Uh... that makes NO sense in any dimension" so it was a pretty good riddle :)) (Btw Alex, I love your efforts, it was about 03:00 AM in sweden when you wrote those, and I admit, I laughed abit at them ;>)

I have three;
1. A cat, wearing a leather, is outside sleeping. It begins to rain and in an hour the cat is dead. How?
2. Guess what "it" is; It is greater then god, more evil then the devil, poor people have it, rich people need it, if you eat it you will die.
3. What is something that you can buy when you don't need it, but can't buy when you do need it?

(P.S. Sorry if they were already said)
