What do you mean by treating the situation as if the rule wasn't broken? So the person who broke the rule still get to be the winner?

In the case of the riddle answer does meet the 1-hour limit the riddle creator will either label it as correct, or give it a hint of "warm" or "cold" based on the first (rule-abyding) answer before it. The first stab at the riddle will only be answered with "incorrect" in case it is indeed is incorect. In case two answers are equal to each other the correct hint for the players is "warm".
Example:
Riddle: Guess the number between 1 and 10. (Answer is 5)
post #1 — 7 incorrect
post #2 — 8 warm
post #3 — 7 warm
post #4 — 9 cold
post #5 — 4 warm
post #6 — 10 cold
post #7 — 6 warm It may seem like there's a lot of "warm" spam but that's the point. The idea is to correct guesses that lead to nowhere and just waste people's time.

Shouldn't post #2 be cold?
