Riddles
« on: December 14, 2011, 10:30:47 am »
Title to self explanatory. Person says a riddle, and TPBH has to answer it and give another riddle.

I'll start.
2 fathers and 2 sons went fishing. By noon, they had all caught a fish. However, only 3 fish were caught. No fish were lost. How is this possible?

ALL ANSWERS TO RIDDLES MUST BE POSTED IN A SPOILER SO AS TO CONSERVE THE MYSTERY FOR SOMEONE READING THE THREAD. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN DEATH.

A mushroom.

I can't think of a riddle, myself, so I'll leave this one open to whoever.

E: Also this might be better off moved to Forum Games and Roleplaying; there's a button in the lower left or right.

You may find me in the forest, and take me home in your hand, but you just can't let me go.

What am I?

No, you'd have to wipe it off with something.

Or let it drip off or evaporate. Also you must be going to wet forests or something. Simple answer....
