0 Guest Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I would hold off a bit unless there is something really misleading in the original. Now that we have one word, it should help us figure out where you're going with 1 and 3. So I'd give it a couple of hours at least and see how the answers go. I agree, too early to hint and push us Its a good riddle, let it be good! Thanks guys! No the original isn't misleading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
Guest
(Never done anything like this - Please be easy on me!
)
Below 3 words and then some math
Follow the clues - too easy a path?
Out of many there's just one
You have come here in hopes to find
Using something sort of like magic
It will take you little time
Now's not the time for games
The key was here I know!
Who are you? Where am I?
Oh this is getting old
When I came in, stones were thrown
I wear leather never lace
When I left, looked down upon
Since I couldn't keep up the pace
Now at the end you will see
Take 1 from 2 add that to 3
Now look close - 3 numbers! - Almost done
Add them all up - Isn't this fun!
Just a number is all I seek
Math indeed! (Tongue in cheek...)
