Justin Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Oh yeah, that makes more sense. I did not come up with the idea of a fireman. Nice one, anime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myriad Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 :) Go Anime! I'm often seen around a lot, referred to many ways, See me black and you may find misfortune haunts your days. Tell a thing, that should have been kept quiet, to all around, Then look inside the sack, there I'm no longer to be found. Nosiness, prying, snooping, leaves me fearing, full of dread, For all these things are likely to see me soon lying dead. These clues combined should start to give a picture, an idea, Of who or what I am, so can you tell me? Is it clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myriad Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 *grumbles* I knew that one was way too easy. You so won't get this straight away. I'm full of keys whenever I'm made I came about wooden when the Renaissance played Hundreds of years later, I was divided And two new keys to me were provided Then in 1760, and that's forty years later Three keys were added by Florio, Gedney, and Potter Around the 80's of the century mentioned I was used by Mozart and Haydn Over the years, new keys were gained In the 1830's, Beethoven used me to entertain Near the end of the 1800's, or the 19th century I was used by Brahms, Strauss, and Tchaikovsky Now, modern renditions are made of me Without my holes, I wouldn't be What am I?

Myriad Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 Neither do I. But I don't really like spending alot of time on things. I have a very short attention spa - Oh look, a birdie! xD Bob was having a big party. He decided on a technique to get lots of people to come. He invited his five closest friends and said that they could each invite 4 people. Each of those could invite 3. Each of those could invite 2. Each of those could invite 1. Overall, how many people did Bob invite to his party? -This is a trick teaser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie_Penguin Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 well he only invited 5 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Well yeah, 5! I nearly wanted to calculate, nevertheless, I'll count how many people in total would be invited. It's.... 325, such a big party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy ♥ Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Yeah, I'd heard that one before! I did calculate it, the first time though... I always miss the trick :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie... Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Well, after I finished reading the problem, I had an urge to calculate all the people, but I knew it was just five. Stupid me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikaown Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I would have counted it. You shouldn't have said it was a trick. That made it much easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie_Penguin Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 well some people say there's a "trick" just to confuse you so it could've been either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 lemme do one. ok here it goes. What is the one thing you can talk to but nobody else can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Dan. Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Dillon, you do realise that only one person's been posting the brain teasers, since she started the topic, right? I'm sure Myriad's the only one who posts them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myriad Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Yeah, I am, but if you want you can post em. o_O Here's another one! I with borrowed silver shine, What you see is none of mine. First I show you but a quarter, like the bow that guards the Tartar; Then the half, and then the whole, ever dancing around the pole; And true it is, I chiefly owe my beauty to the shades below. Who am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I think it's the moon. Am I right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
