You are an evil, evil person. I thought "oh I'll just check the forum one more time before i go to sleep, respond to what I need to etc." but nooooo someone had to post riddles and I got sucked in, did one and then I felt the need to finish the rest of them:nonono:so I completed them all, I had to look one up. I won't post them all since I don't want to ruin anyone's fun. I'm not certain that I got them all right. but now I've been up for an extra hour and a half (it is now past 3am in the morning) goodness gracious. I'll post one that was easy for me and one that was hard for me and then REALLY go to bed this time I'm putting the answers in grey just in case anyone doesn't want a spoiler...



One question about this though is 8 T on a O written correctly? or did I just get the wrong answer?


Easy: 26 L in the A = 26 Letters in the Alphabet

Hard: 64 S on a C B = 64 Squares on a Chess Board

lol...
SORRY Tundra...me bad....me big meanie:biggrin2:

well the answers are of course somewhere up on the internet!! 8T on a O is correct...I was a good girl and EVENTUALLY got them all in 28mins, except for 13=UFS, after an hour of frustration I surrendered and cheated.

Might sign up for Mensa now lol, apparently if you can get 19 or more in half hour you can call yourself a genius.....whatever.

I own a rabbit so of course I am a genuis!!:biggrin2:
