I still say it's a drain

Same amount of letters
but not a drain...

umm ... thanks

I have no clue what this could be ...

Ok... one more tip and then i'm telling...

You use me to discard what you do not want
and take out what you wish to keep

A sink?

...well... you're all on the right track more or less, but not on the spot yet...

The answer is a sieve (hope i spell this right)...

was a riddle from the old "betrayal at krondor" game by Feist.
Great game btw...

Ok....

Who's turn is it to put up a riddle?

The Maker Doesnt Use It, The Buyer Doesnt Want It, And The User Never Gets To See It.

What is it?

a coffin

(I'm not sure, but didn't we have this one already?)

Yup It's A coffin! Easy one I know.

Ok I have another one it's kind of easy too.

I am the begining of eternity, and the end of time and space. The begining of every end and the end of every place, what am I?

No Ideas?

Well, I've heard it before and already know the answer, so it wouldn't exactly be fair, now would it?

Yes, well, if no one else has any ideas, I think you should post the answer, Vilkacis, and another riddle.

yeah I know it's not a very tough one sorry.

If you insist:

I am the begining of eternity, and the end of time and space. The begining of every end and the end of every place, what am I?




Here's something original. As such, it is hard to gauge difficulty. Hopefully it won't be too much of a challenge.



My brothers and I stand between the knowledges and fantasies of myriad cultures. If you impress us, we will proclaim the workings of your heart to any who might comprehend them, or at your initial whim remain hidden and quiet. Once free, we are difficult to rein in. Our fragile lives require care and respect, lest we forever degenerate into unintelligibility. Although many of us may rise again, born anew, past lives are always irretrievably forgotten.

What am I?

A writer?

I say a book because:

Books on a bookshelf

getting a book published or keeping it as a diary

The breaking down into unitelligibility is easy, just look at some old books and how hard the text can be to read. The second part is a bit harder. The only way I could come up with would be if you recycled books.

Edit* thought of this right after posting*
A newspaper is starting to make more sense to me because:

International news

Either not allowing the newspaper printers to hear about your story or clipping the story out and keeping it

It is difficult to keep newspaper stories from circling. Finally, newspapers turn yellowish after only a couple of months, and news paper is definatly recycled more often that books. It is a newspaper.

Very good, Petard. Just a step further and you've got it ^_^

Words...
It must be words

Nishah wrote:Words...

Sadly, a step in the wrong direction.

-- Vilkacis

Sounds like pages of paper to me.

Lupin wrote:Sounds like pages of paper to me.

Bingo ^_^

The intended answer was a page of a book or a piece of paper.





How difficult would you guys say that one was? Does this answer seem to fit better than the others?

-- Vilkacis

I like my answers
Yours fits, but there are so many simmialr things it could be
