Very close! I wrote the riddle on a piece of paper at my house, so I'll post the next part when I get back from school.

It starts to get more obvious with these last two.

I already had a certain idea of it with only the first one.

Things that is bugging me is the first part of the riddle, I guess it misguided me.

It's fire!

Hm that sounds about right. I'd still like to know the fourth riddle though, if it is correct.

Well done!

The rest of the riddle:

It feeds off of air
Though by wind it dies
It scares all animals
But attracts all flies

Most liqids kill it
Through it, solids can pass
Some gasses; it converts
Though it hasn't any mass


You get a prize of...

200 tings!

And candish gets 50 tings consolation prize becuase it was almost right.

Not always: wind can fuel the fire in a very naughty way.
Anyway, thanks for them tings ;)!

Yeah, it was an on-the-spot-I-cannot-be-bothered-to-do-my-homework-so-I'll-do-a-riddle kind of thing. I should change it to "strong winds" or something.

Also, butt dicks ≈ fire. 50 tings. No objections.

Fire totally does have mass though, the most basic and famous physics equation of all can tell you that!

Fire is just hot oxygen and ash. I was really talking about the energy emitted that makes fire fire (the heat, light and sound). Otherwise its just dust... Dust and air...

Also "fire" is not a physical thing, it's a chemical reaction. The atoms involved in the process have mass, but, being a process, fire itself does not have mass.

Hmm, if it's just a process, you can't say that "solids pass through it" either though, really. :?

Yeah, yeah. Here's what I meant:

If fire was a physical thing, in my opinion it would be the result of the process known as fire. The result is light, heat and sound that form an entity that, being just energy, has no mass, though objects can pass through it as if it where not there, like a gas. I was not talking about the chemicals and gasses that create the energy, but the energy produced itself. I know my arguments of it not having mass as it's just energy and why things can pass through it kind of conflict with each other, but I didn't really put that much deep thought into it when I was writing it out of boredom. Anyway, at least it rhymed!

Other people should do riddles. Someone should make a thread that's a competition where people make up Rayman themed riddles and people get prizes for winning, like TTQ.

Technically it's plasma though, and that is matter, that has mass! (Plus energy is equivalent to mass anyway)

As for Rayman-themed riddles, the host of TTQ technically can do those for bonus questions, but it might be nice to have a dedicated thread for them. Though I imagine participation rates would soon dwindle.

I enjoyed those. Although I'm not the best at riddles I could see some interest in such a thread.

Here's another short one:

It looks like a dick
That goes in a pan
Give it a prick
Or it'll go bang!

20 ting reward.

I'd say sausage, but I've never had to prick them before. Granted I've been vegetarian half my life so what do I know...
