Waspo's Game of Riddles

Postby ElManisero » Mon Jul 14, 2014 9:16 am

I am Waspo, proprietor of the infamous House of Curios and welcome to my Game of Riddles!
Image
At my whim, I shall randomly update this thread with riddles and the first person to post the correct answer in the thread will win 10 silver pieces and more importantly, a spot on the Leaderboard! Sometimes I announce them in town, sometimes I post them in secret... I will do my best to vary the posting times so that everyone has a chance to play, since we don't all live by the same clock.

Points will be awarded for partially correct answers at my own discretion. Points will be subtracted for language that is both uncivil and unfunny.
So, if you want to troll, you better make it funny. Conversely, if you can't crack a decent joke to save your life, then you better not be flaming or launching personal attacks.

In the event of a tie, players are ranked by the cumulative time it took them to submit the correct answers.

The first puritan to obtain 100 50 points wins a golden egg!

Riddle #1:

You are in a house with an all-southern view. You look out the window and a bear walks by.

What color is the bear?


[Winner = Tomki - 14 minutes]

Your house is in very unideal location at north pole. The bear you see is white.

The only way all of your view could be towards the south is if you were at the north pole.
The bear would thus be white.

I feel like Methuzelah23 deserves some sort of prize for having the same time stamp as the winning entry. I mean, if you're posting within 60 seconds of the correct answer, you deserve something - right? Any idea as to what they should get? 10 points? 5 points? Turkey droppings?

5 points seems resonable to me.
Something deep or funny
