I think my answer for riddle 2 is right ;D i think

 

#1 hmm, my guess is a bell. I cannot think what the hanging thing in a bell is called but it is like a tongue and bells speak loudly and they can't breath.

 

You have a very good knowledge Mr.Quanta

 

Hey tweak is your first on a bell?

I thought of it becuase I just heard a bell ring.

 

heres a hard riddle for 2500 minerals and owerup:

Thirteen pirates put their treasure in a safe. They decide that the safe should be able to be opened if any majority of pirates agree but not be able to be opened if any minority agree. The pirates don't trust each other so they consult a locksmith. The locksmith puts a specific number of locks on the safe such that every lock must be opened to open the safe. Then he distributes keys to the pirates such that every pirate has some but not all of the keys. Any given lock can have multiple keys but any given key can only open one lock. What is the least number of locks required?

also for a aditional 1000 minerals. assign the pirates keys like pirate 1 has key a,b,c.... u get it right?

+ prove it. good luck

 

Well I got 300 minerals for a correct riddle, so I got #3 right. It's sunlight.

 

@tweak- for your pirate riddle, is it 50? because the pirates do not trust each other after all

 

Here's a couple of easy riddels for 200 minerals each, just so I can do something with all the minerals I have built up.

1.What is broken everytime it is spoken?
2.Food helps me to survive but water will kill me. What am I?

Good luck, no GOOGLE.

 

secret
and fire

 

@ssjfox- 1) is it lie/deception?
2) is fire i heard that already

edit: damn you tweak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

both said already, also ive posted the 1st one before.

heres another riddle for 200 minerals it has 2 answers so 200 minerals each answer

what does no one want but no1 wants to lose?

 

Is it Money?

 

i want money.....

how about quiet?

 

Just so you guys know you both got the fire one right but no the first one is still up for grabs.

 

tweak that pirate riddle is HARD, i don't think it has a trivial solution

 

Nothing.

 

yeah it doesent have a trivial answer its a math problem and it is hard. if u actualy work it ur almost garrenteed to understand how to assign the keys and stuff but it will take u a while, thats why its worth 3500 minerals total. + powerup

 

@Tweak for your no one wants riddle is it a diet? Becuase no one likes diets but they dont want to go off them either.

 

i guess it has to be 2 because they don't trust each other but yet they are in the same crew (if they are) so they just put 2 locks in just in case so none of them wouldn't even try to steal a thing, i could be wrong, it is a treasure they are keeping... :-\

 

not 2 + u have to prove it. also all the answers to the other riddle are wrong.
