I thought I might give it a go since I like the locks that andromeda and dms have made. However, I added something more to this. Once you solve it all, the hidden message will give you one more line, and from that, you work out the final answer. All the words are not the same length. This is my first lock so hopefully it turns out good, and if it doesn't, then I just gotta work on it more next time.....

1. I am easy, almost our planet

2. I am the next in line

3. I am another name for a frog

4. I am an opposite prefix to two beds

5. I am treated, pine trees

6. I move on water followed by a dance move

7. I am a communal village

8. I am rarefied air

9. I am the replacement of what is lost with new growth

10. I am a hot plate, but take one away from me and I become this

#10 Griddle

Take one away, you are a Riddle! Quite witty, indeed...but it's not solved with those broken links above

EDIT: Sorry--didn't see Twin Pop's #10 until after posting. If #10 is correct, Kudos to him

Wow, good work everyone. I'm glad we've come this far with such few hints. The updated list is as follows:

1. I am easy, almost our planet

2. I am the next in line heir - Shakeepuddn

3. I am another name for a frog ranid - Shakeepuddn

4. I am an opposite prefix to two beds debunks - Mumbles140

5. I am treated, pine trees sleepers - LIS

6. I move on water followed by a dance move

7. I am a communal village

8. I am rarefied air vacuum - HoustonHokie

9. I am the replacement of what is lost with new growth molting - andromeda

10. I am a hot plate, but take one away from me and I become this griddle - Twin Pop

As for the other 3....

Keep in mind I said almost

Twin Pop is the closest

No one has even come close I don't think. I have never seen this word before so it is an uncommon word.

That was quick....and andromeda pulls into the lead. Now all you gotta do is find the hidden message. The hidden message yields a line and you have to use that to get the final answer.

1.EATH - andromeda

2. HEIR - Shakeepuddn

3. RANID - Shakeepuddn

4. DEBUNKS - Mumbles140

5. SLEEPERS - LIS

6. SHIPWORM - andromeda and about the worm, it's a dance move that looks like this ~ I think it's supposed to be a break dancing move

7. MOSHAV - andromeda

8. VACUUM- HoustonHokie

9. MOLTING - andromeda

10.GRIDDLE - Twin Pop

OK....Here are the phrases I get when I line the words up:

this route

head route

thin shame

three mule

three mate

three hate

head small

trade hate

three same

If I use "three same" as a clue and count the number of times the different letters are used in the words, I get the following letters: hilmnu. So my answer to the teaser is "hum nil" or please don't hum. lol Of course, the message could be "hi Muln" and Muln could be the author's friend's name. Or I could be starting to crack...

:)

I believe there are 10 letters in the hidden message, since there are 10 lines. I guess you must have missed a letter, and could you use a spoiler next time please.

On a less serious note, I think you're starting to crack :P . I don't blame you. This is probably the hardest part. After a few more guesses I'll give a hint.

Oops...sorry for not using the spoiler. :blush:

Here's Shame. Is it shame?

There is no punctuation in the hidden message. So that means no apostrophes, hyphens, comma, etc. Since I like how eager you are to solve this, if you want, a hint below...

The hidden message is 3 words
