Frig sake, man, you must have a very sad life to think up that.
But try this! My ultra hard FF7 riddle!
Richest of five
Second to fall
Birth was my death
Who am I?
Simple, but effective.
Thingfish: ... Dude! U r teh win! *Bows down* Wish I could think like that...

(Since this is only the second post I make with my new signature, I feel that I should explain it now as well. This is yanked right out of a certain EULA. I'm not making fun of anything by cooking it up, it has already been cooked up by Apple. I just copied, pasted and translated. It is 100% authentic. Well... at least 90%. I make no guarantee of a spotless translation, and I added a little something to clarify what software I got it from. Lo and behold.)
This Apple-software (QuickTime) is not meant to be used for controlling nuclear powerplants, aircraft-navigation, communication-systems, air traffic control-systems or lifesupportive machines, where errors and shortcomings in the Apple-software may lead to deaths, injuries or serious property- or environmental damage.
Looked more, and I have to say, that the connection between Tantalus and Blank as a son of Tantalus being turned to stone is indeed very interesting. It almost seems to perfect to be a coincident!
Lots of good stuff, definitely, although as I said, there's no point going more complex then this, really. One thing I learnt now is also that it probably won't be viable to use a person as the answer of a riddle anymore, on consideration of how this riddle was finally solved (no offense meant to Free_Spirit). I think I'll try and make a new riddle over christmas, although this time I won't go out of my way to get people to solve it, like I did with this last one I had :rolleyes2 You can expect it to be of a quite different sort than the type of riddle like this last one here, though.
Perhaps, Thingfish, you might even have a crack at solving it yourself, for once

yep. thingfish's turn to guess. he sat back laughing at us (i think) and now it's someones turn to laugh at him (hopefully).
*sigh* sadly I have misplaced the riddle I WAS working on so the one I posted will have to do until I find my cryptic riddle.
Noone can clearly see what I truly am nor can they see what I am not. In this I am the greatest of mysteries and noone has yet been able to solve it. If you see me you haven't seen me. If you don't see me then you might have just seen me. And in the end you are all left to wonder if I actually existed at all or if i was simply a trick played upon your feeble minds.
This is now off topic and I must report to a moderator like the saint I am
there was a picture here

actually manus, it was me who got him over here so therefore you lose. but sadly, i don't win either.
It's interesting that you think it sad for someone to be intelligent, erudite, intricate, cunning and clever. I wonder how sad your own life must be! Hehe.Originally Posted by Lost Number
I don't think we'll bother with that rather sad little riddle.
I know, I was very surprised to find that connection and it shows how much the creators of FFIX looked into it. I can't believe it's a coincidence.
I may have a go at solving other riddles, but it may be best to bow out at the very peak of riddling skill and let my followers try to tame lesser conundra...
Bwahahaha!
So you don't know the answer. It is quite simple.I don't think we'll bother with that rather sad little riddle.
By the way, I do not have anything people who are intelligent ,erudite, intricate ,cunning and clever, but to waste that conjuring riddles about FFIX...you could much better things.
Thingfish, how long did it take you make up this riddle?
Well, maybe he likes making riddles?
Oh and, but to waste everything you have on sitting around playing games/going on the PC... you could do much better things. See, that can be said about anything, really everything is a waste of time, but at least he's using the free time he has positively, using his brain and all that.
I've not tried to look for the answer for your riddle so no, I don't know the answer
I use those characteristics in all other aspects of my life and I didn't waste it conjuring this riddle. The riddle took a couple of hours to think up and lasted for nearly two years giving a lot of fun to many people as well as provoking them to thought and research. I wouldn't say that was wasted time.
omg stfu lolFrig sake, man, you must have a very sad life to think up that.
A few hours? Wow. xD
I bet you got a lot of joy out of watching all these people writhe in pain, trying to work out the answer. xD
Yes, a couple of hours, although I added a number of extras over the next couple of days before posting it. I did have fun, yes
