0 plainglazed Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 expressions nope maxim? not it. 3.Cone? 4.Fluke? 5.Tough? Hey Wilson - so good to see you here. Have my money on you for the finale. None of the above will help you get there tho. divorce chance, risk? stranger? hello ana_stassia - good answers all but not what I'm looking for. re 4. the bit about "remote odds" is kind of a nuance of the answers meaning and not really important as a clue. not my proudest, sorry.

0 plainglazed Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 raft, rope or barge? Dude, nailed another. Good stuff. raft as in a great many; a large group brought together usually indiscriminately and the kind you can float on sail/sale bond sorry clinton, neither. ticket? or saver? dog? or tie? (i've been looking up gambling terms) sorry chic, neither. promise close for the meaning of one half of this one. rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 commitment? sorry chic, not that. Amuse nope, chicory's first guesses on this one were the closest so far, I think. similar to Chicory's answer Vow Oops Vow was part of the line so another guess Oath/ Pledge not far off, just need similar that ironically ties into the first line of this one. a rose service STARS ooh, just got it. not it but really clever for 5. I'm not sure what that final riddle means. What does it mean "Then follow the clues for additional love?" There are five mini-riddles (one per couplet) each with a one word answer and then the five answers are further involved in a puzzle to find the final answer. Each couplet might contain any number of plays on words like homophones, puns, double entendre, etc. (reading them very literally can be helpful). Ultimately though, I would call them what am I's. Here are a couple of links to similar ones from before: I will say the clues could be any part of the OP that is not the five couplets. Hope this helps. Dont mind answering any questions you might have. Thanks for checking out the riddle. Here are my guess deathHope? Dream? Hello Eragon - good guesses but not what you will need for the next step.
