    lol. that is so not right.

    and it's raining tonight!

    my riddle is still unsolved. answer will be revealed later at 3 am forum time.

    still for 250 minerals and :powerup:

    here's the riddle again:

    i came, i saw, i'll conquer all,
    as i rise up, my foes shall fall
    once i achieve this greatest feat,
    i'll only embrace my great defeat.


    HINT:

    1. it's not a person
    2. the second line doesn't really have to mean that something or someone has to die. just think of it as something falling
    3. it's a very simple thing.

    1) Teeter-Totters and Scales don't conquer anything
    2) Scales don't achieve anything
    3) How do you defeat a scale?


    I'm thinking... Balloon. Helium Balloon. Maybe even Hot Air Balloon.

    mmm... I guess it´s a bee...just to bring something new

    Bees can fly high and see everything ( conquer all ),
    so they can fly down ( fall?? )
    If you disturb a bee, it can prick you with it´s sting. ( greatest feat )
    But when that happens, the bee dies ( great defeat )

    hehe

    B_Paragon got my riddle right and sc2 forum hooked me up with alot more riddle money so heres a new one!

    here is a common one that every1 knows but still 150 minerals!

    what is
    The begining of eternity,
    the end of time and space,
    the begining of every end,
    and the end of every place?

    alright and here is another one 300 minerals

    "Four jolly men sat down to play,
    And played all night till break of day.
    They played for cash and not for fun,
    With a separate score for every one.
    When it came time to square accounts,
    they all had made quite fair amounts.
    Now, not one has lost and all have gained -
    Tell me now, this can you explain?"

    hehe that 1 is preaty cool,
    no google no edits no asking for help, first correct post wins

    @ Riddle #1 The Letter E :good:

    I've heard that one before, so I sort of feel like I cheated. So, to give the (150) minerals back to the community...

    Jack is running away from home. He runs forwards, turns left, runs some more, turns left again, runs some more, turns left again, and finally runs back home. When he arrives, he finds two men in masks waiting for him. Who are they?

    At Tweak's second riddle....

    I'm assuming they're getting paid to play an instrument... played for cash not for fun.....

    And they're playing at a..... square dance?

    That's what I get from the "Squared account."
