Yeah I basically figured such, but I've always loved riddles (tho' this thing is starting to lack in riddles, and just becoming more of a "Use google" contest).

Unless of course you're just saying that so you can eliminate your competition?

Damnit, you figured me out.

Thanks 911 for the info. I was getting pretty frustrated with that question, I had them all right at one point, except for the "The" in "The Monkees".
Now I can't test it because the site is down for a day to a day and a half.
Guess I'll have to wait.

 

[isasir]

Thanks for your help 911Paramedic.

 

[weezergirl]

well... this seems pretty easy (sorry I just got into this right now, didn't bother going from 3-14 (got 1 and 2 pretty easily)

Riddle #15

What comes next?



o,tt,ff,ss,?

(one, two three, four five, six seven)

but "e" (eight), "en" (eight nine), and "ent" (eight nine ten) doesn't work..

EDIT: I don't know if he uses some sort of tracking program to see if you went through 1-14, but when I type in "ent" it says "You are not authorized to view this page"

When I type in "en" or anything else, it just says "Page cannot be found"

I've seen 1.15s riddle before. The answer is "eight, nine, ten" but it doesn't seem to work.
