Composing hay, but never straw, more useful if you're quick to draw. I've started wars, I'm born of shoves, I helped young George find truest love.

What am I?

I sang you a song that was short and was red. I sang you a song where old Edward fell dead. I sang you a long song of cowboys and dust, I sang you a song of both bondage and must. Stand up to me now little children or suffer, I'll sing you a song that you'll hear from no other.

This one was VERY difficult, and I'm proud of Scrags. I thought I'd have to keep dropping hints for weeks.

Care to test your intellect against my own? You will not win, but perhaps there is joy in the competition.

Riddle me this: A brigand's life's the life for me, I am not overkindly. I'll steal your home, I'll kill your kids, you'll not know who's behind thee. My progeny are just like me, they'll baffle and confound you. I sit at home, whistle while you moan, so sayeth I, the...

Well?

Riddle me this:

I harness ham, I hold the pink, it's all chalked up to skill, methinks. I'm brave, I'm swift, I've got it made. And through it all, I still get paid.

Who am I?

Wouldn't it be lovely if we all posted our guesses in spoiler text? It's quite simple. (at least for an intellect such as mine)

[I guess] (/s"Whatever your guess may be")

Edit: Solved by the brilliant ChickenTaco. We simply remove the space between ] and (, and we're left with I guess.

Not a rule, just a gentle suggestion.

Riddle me this:

I live up North but rarely south, I've arms and torso but no mouth. When I turn white the black strikes me, not racist though, assuredly. I shoot, I strike, I butcher too, yet still more sweet by half than you.

I am used to declare victory as well as an unwillingness to try. I can be used to describe roads, bridges, a lover kissed, death, giving, throwing, and permits. What am I?

Day Z Riddle: Help me find this spot on the Chernarus map

3 Upvotes

So, I love riddles. We often have riddles on our server, and I love solving them, but this one got me, and I need the Riddlers of reddit to help me crack it!

So the original riddle was posted in Russian:
Наполнен мусором в Лопатино
В окружении деревьев в Орловец
Что-то маленькое в Козловке
Спрятано в Хельм
50 метров значит

Translation:
Filled with garbage in Lopatino
Surrounded by trees in Orlovets
Something small in Kozlovka
Tucked away in Helm
50 meters means

Pls help me! This is the only one out of 5 ive done so far that Im stuck on, and Ive even tried grabbing fresh perspectives, triangulation, etc.

Edit: I found it. Helm was supposed to be Khelm, which gave me a fourth place on the map and allowed me to cross the towns, and x marked the spot. "Filled with garbage" "Surrounded by trees" "Something small" and "tucked away" all described location and the object, and it was within 50 meters of the spot marked. :)

Can't get this one!

  1. If the question was in English, the answer would be 40.

  2. If the question was in French, the answer would be 2, 5, 10 and 100.

  3. If the question was in German, the answer would be 1 and 8.

There is a six-letter word that has the letter l in the middle, in the beginning, and at the end. But there only one letter l in the word. Can you figure out what the word is? Read very carefully. There’s a catch.

What is the question? Found this in a conference room while I was cleaning up in there. Looks like a cryptic riddle but I can’t make any sense of it. Could just be gibberish.

I'm known by some, but not by many. I'm repeated everywhere, cheap as a penny. Some hate my presence, many really don't. They come and go and say, "Take my upvote!"

A fucking repost.
