I need to catch up so I can have a chance at the 3rd prize at least

Darn, I am going out to watch Troy tonight....

NoSanninWa · 2004-05-15, 03:06

Round 11 and this contest could still be won by absolutely anyone!

When we thought we had lost it all,
a savior appeared out of nowhere.
On the eve of the sixth day,
another event shook the heavens.
The queen arrived to visit the peasants,
but there was one who desired to seize the throne.
The queen would have none of it,
and left the village forever.

Please answer with a thread

This is a toughie (at least I think it is), so good luck.

Wow, I never remember reading that thread. It must have been during one of my 40-hour engineering rules my life marathons. So Jappi is the queen of AnimeSuki huh? Too bad he/she/it was EXILED! MWAHAHAHAHA! (Sorry, couldn't help myself

) I have to travel for the next couple of days though after commencement ceremonies, so I won't have any internet access and I assume by then the contest will be near over

Aww well, there are better things in life than a kazoo (there are aren't there? Please tell me there are!!!)

No, actually it is correct.

Taboo: 2
Spiggy: 2
Lexander: 2
lwl12: 2
_Sin_: 1
duskphoenix: 0.5

It's now a four-way tie! Now for the Round 12 riddle:

******

They created music like magic.
Their black hearts filled many
with their melodies of darkness.
It revived the ancient spirits,
memories of the past were awakened.
However, for many the melody
showed a fantasy that would not last.

This one should be a quickie. The answer should be in the form of a THREAD.

OMG! A four way tie in the lead! I wonder what is going to happen next! It is shocking how easily some of these riddles are solved. It makes it really hard for us to guage how hard to make the next riddle. We even tried to make these last two riddles harder than the original draft.

As you can see, the elite of the most intelligent people of the world has gathered here (well, combined with the scum

)

Wow, the Kazoo members sure are taking their sweet time with the next riddle, trying to catch us unawares....

Well, you can think that if you want, but we're actually just trying to have the contest last longer. It's been less than a week since it began, and it's already over half over. You guys just solve riddles to darn quickly!

P.S. Watch Love Love! *points to signature*

ROUND 13

Current Standings

Taboo: 2
Spiggy: 2
Lexander: 2
lwl12: 2
_Sin_: 1
<xellos>: 1
duskphoenix: 0.5

Riddle for round 13:

A force brought it back to life,
and continued from whence it ended,
allowing it to live for a second time.
It was a maniacal force,
one which affected space itself.
The force beckoned to the people,
it demanded their thoughts and their ideas
as if they were some sort of a tribute for a king.
However, the force could not understand what they spoke of.
It manifested a being to translate their speech for it.
And thus, this force listened to their thoughts,
and it began to ruminate like never before.
However, one by one, the people abandoned the force and its translator.
There was no longer any interest to tell it their thoughts,
for that which they thought about had expired.

*the answer for the riddle is a thread happy hunting!
