Excellent. 50 points to me then (first guess bonus). I'll have to think of a really good riddle this time.



I have no voice, yet I speak
I have no mouth, yet I feed
I have no lungs, yet I breathe
I have no life,yet I sleep

Spoiler: Guesstimation (click to show/hide)

Computer

No voice, yet speaks Definition 8
No mouth, yet feeds this one is a little tougher
No lungs yet breathes Uses air, like in fans; a stretch, but whatever
No life, yet sleeps Sleep mode

[Lord Shonus]

That's it.

"Feed" was power consumption.

[RedWarrior0]

Wow, really?

Okay, I may need to delay my new riddle. Because I only know a few overused ones and very few about everyday objects

[Kashyyk]

Damn, I though computer too, but I wasn't sure how to work speak in.

[Lord Shonus]

The idea is to make up your own. I don't expect them to always work very well.
Anyway, Red gets 50 points.

[RedWarrior0]

Hm... What if it's a less traditionally "Everyday object"? I mean, I see one every day, but there are probably some of you who don't.

Spoiler: Here goes (click to show/hide)

Snap, crackle, pop! within;
On some cold winter days;
Felled forests enter and leave me, changed;
A container of an unusual kind.

Spoiler: my guess (click to show/hide)

Wood heater
Snap, crackle, pop! within; - these are noises that fire makes
On some cold winter days; - only use it when the weather's cold
Felled forests enter and leave me, changed; - you put wood in, you take charcoal and ash out
A container of an unusual kind. - it's a box that holds fire

I'm certain that my answer is correct, but my explanation of my reasoning might not be very good.

[Caesar]

I'm allowed to guess as well, right?

Spoiler: My Guess. (click to show/hide)

A (camp)fire.
Snap, crackle, pop! within; The sounds of fire (As stated before).
On some cold winter days; You use them in the winter mainly. (As stated before).
Felled forests enter and leave me, changed; As stated by Archangel.
A container of an unusual kind. Fire 'contains' heat, and a campfire also keeps within its boundaries. As such, it's not a container of the 'well-known' kind.

Wood heater
Snap, crackle, pop! within; - these are noises that fire makes
On some cold winter days; - only use it when the weather's cold

I'm certain that my answer is correct, but my explanation of my reasoning might not be very good.

Close enough. I was thinking a wood-burning fireplace, but it's about the same.

I was originally going to use the "snap crackle pop" and "container" to lead one into thinking of a bowl. But I made it too easy.

[Archangel]

Hmm... Now I've got to come up with a riddle. Curses! 

[Lord Shonus]

The whole point of such an easy category was to ease us into the game, so don't worry about them being too easy. 50 points to archangel.

[Lord Shonus]

Archangel, there has to be a riddile in this thread within 12 hours, or I'm skipping you.

[Heron TSG]

Ooh, I missed this topic. I can't wait to start guessing more riddles. That old riddle thread was fun.

[Lord Shonus]

Archangel is skipped. Riddle is ipen.
