Based on the theory that we are making it too complicated:
seven fiver letters through
six nine even threesome et cetera rejected
I'm not quite sure I understood that. If you are saying that multiples of 3 and even numbers are rejected, that is true (except for 3) but that is not the rule. Five and 7 letter words will get through but it is not just those. Dichotomous will pass.
Edit: I just realized I forgot to post my example last time. Oops.

ummmm, can you explain those, please?
well, i use "obscure jokes" every time i talk about my friends and what crazy things we did that day...
- the coefficient of friction is represented by the greek letter Mu or m.
- "I think, therefore I am."-Rene Descartes, Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle.
- I don't know much about Marxism or socialism but I think it's a play on property (or proper tea).
-
odd number of letters, but not compound?
Nope.

To try to refine Perry's rule:
sheik shake shaking milkshake
mills windmills
house workhouse outhouses
sheik
shake
shaking
mills
house
The words that have an odd number of letters get through. If the word is compound, then both of the words should have an odd number of letters to get through.
Nope.

What do you mean by "something" might change when the volcano erupts? Or are you just being general?

Jugding from the list of Wombat, I noticed that
...The words that have an odd number of letters get through
. Am I right? You are really close. Unfortunately, not quite. FRUIT will get through. STARFRUIT will not.

Why are some people more or less sensitive to temperature changes than others? For example, it could be anywhere between 40 and 80 degrees and the temperature wouldn't bother me. Some of my friends on the other hand would be either freezing or burning up. Can anyone explain this to me?

Maybe I missed something but why do you have to keep Leo in the house to protect him?

OK Thalia when you come up with your rule can you advise which of the following would get thro the GGDs:

tyranny
yachts
cipher
vitriol
rhizome
yoghurt
echidna
radii
pious
spiel
ideal
igloo
ovoid

About my rule:No knowledge of a language other than English will be needed for this one. Actually, I think language rules are irrelevant. That being said, these make it through:
insipid
tyranny
vitriol
rhizome
yoghurt
echidna
radii
pious
spiel
ideal
igloo
ovoid
potoo
gypsy
buoys
coypu
young

the answer is right but i think there should not be a 3 there.. in base 3, the number 3 does not exist as 3 but 10.. here are the numbers: 0, 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22, 100, 101, etc...
just like in binary (base 2), there are only 1's and 0's with no 2's..
It is technically a 10 but it helps to think of it as a 3 since we are so used to base 10. As long as 3 doesn't somehow come up in your answer anyway.

Perhaps we should check out the 50th floor of Highland Towers.

As well as all these stupid product labels, there are many dangers that are not listed on labels that should be. For instance, Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a very dangerous chemical if handled wrong, and yet you never see any of these warnings on their labels:
DHMO:
*is a major component of acid rain
*contributes to the greenhouse effect
*is fatal if inhaled
*contributes heavily toward erosion
*accelerates corrosion of metals
*may cause electrical failures
*has been found in tumors of cancer patients
There have been active attempts to outlaw Dihydrogen Monoxide, yet the government does not see DHMO in the same view as the rest of the people.
Dihydrogen Monoxide
2*hydrogen, 1*oxygen
2H+1O
H2O
My history teacher did that to us! There was an article in the newspaper that day about water powered computer batteries and he started going on about having problems with it in class, problems in the city (we had a bit of flooding that year), can be ingested, . . . Then he offered to gives us a pass to go get some.

A really tall ladder or a crane.

Go through the laptop and contact book. Try to access email. Does anyone besides him have a key or some sort of access to his apartment? What else is on the table?

- If you are refering to the one in Malaysia, the building only has 12 floors so. . . you can't.
- No one said that the window goes out over the edge of the building. It could be a store window or just an oddly located window.
- If you are not afraid of heights, climb a ladder from the outside and jump through into the building. Hopefully, the window is open.

Sometimes, if a riddle goes on long enough, the poster will add some lines.

- When you memorize math problems and catch yourself calculating probabilities on styrofoam cups.
- When someone tells you that math is useless and you proceed to prove that math is everywhere.
- You incorporate factorials into a card game.

Uber_Krueger- You could try writing about
- something that happened during your vacation.
- how you met your best friend and things that have happened.
- one of the assignments I ahve been given in the past is to look at a picture and make up a story about it. For example, I picked a picture of Vesuvius erupting and wrote a story about a girl who was in Pompeii when it erupted. Just pick something and do a google image search.
Hope this helps.

When you said number did you mean a single digit?

12 or 25? Not sure why but I remember something about it being a number.

Close enough. I would have accepted a one letter word. As long as it is not a composite number.
When you make up your rule here is a list of attempted words:
