BakaDatum Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 A better way to give away my plats after a peculiarly lucky night of farming. Just posting the riddles I came up here. Not an English speaker and not in mood for learning, so plz don't judge my grammar. Those are not the version I actually used. Weathered is her skin now firmer than stone. Numerous is her weapon out howling once grown. Death may take her but many shall follow, and many as one her flesh is that of you. Too easy on second thought >_< The next one is in (supposedly) ancient Chinese. 兵者侵略也，不彰。其为尊也，居于旧，志于文，文曰：“无逾矩。” War of plunder, unfamed. Being the noble, settle in old, written in word, saying:"Obedient." The first riddle worth 20p and the second 10p. Both solved in minutes. The last took an entire alliance of door-kickers (I know we don't have kick-able doors in wf. Yet.)whole night. 孤身无益，生于二，满于五，成于众。其为器也，短其首，无益。 Lone is futile, born at two, fill at five, done at many. Being an instrument, missing the head, futile. 至于点数，零阴满阳 As of rank, Yin for zero and Yang for top. 无执于五！五者，雕虫尔 Bother not the five! Five neglect. Had to push the bounty to 40p before it's solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eidolon_Slayer Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Perhaps knowledge of Chinese history is needed. Riddles lose sensibility when translated into another language. Edited June 23, 2015 by RevivedEdgeLord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two classics are mentioned, nothing google can't cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidolon_Slayer Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Not really. Two classics are mentioned, nothing google can't cover. Hah, Google. It's not too satisfying to solve a riddle where one can't think of the answer themselves. Edited June 23, 2015 by RevivedEdgeLord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
