| This is very well written, yet I just don't get it. I see so many riddles that are written more like poems and are just plain obvious- missing the "teaser" element. Now here's a riddle that is written as a riddle should be, and I don't understand the answer. :cry:
Enlighten me please, anyone? |

| scallio,
the queen is notable
the chair is no table
you are not able(did you solve the riddle?)

| Congrats on your first teaser. It was a very good one. Hope to see more from you. :D |

I couldn't solve it...heh |

| Stumped as usual! :lol: |

| I thought it was, "I'm tired." After dragging the Queen to the roof, I'm obviously tired. And, for the Queen being dragged there, she's also pooped. And the chair, well, it has to be sat upon all day. |

| funny and well set. obviously i did not solve it :cry: , but i liked it very much as it is exactly what i expect a riddle to be!! very very very well done! :D |

| I'm not sure what to think about this riddle. I didn't get it, wasn't even on the right track. So I guess it is a very good riddle, but just not my idea of a solvable teaser. My opinion only. :o |

| Clueless.Riddle had no direction. :( :( :( |
|
| Posted by cecepeach83 | 02/05/08 |
| I understand it but I don't know if it's solvable without a bit more direction. If you know what you're looking for, the answer follows but without some frame of reference I don't think anyone would think to answer the question as you have. Still very clever though! :wink: |

| terrible. why would the chair say it's no table? why would the queen answer that she is notable when you're asked to carry her and her chair upstairs? this one makes no sense and wasn't solvable with the riddle given. |
|
| Posted by BeaverFan | 02/05/08 |
| That's good! I never would have figured that out. I was thinking that the answer was "we were downstairs" |
|
| Posted by bestgirl | 02/05/08 |
| I agree with Alexcunn. |
|
| Posted by avonma | 02/05/08 |
| Excellent! I couldn't figure it out, but I love the answer. It makes sense, now.
Way to go! Give us another chance, please! :D |

| Had no idea what I was looking for. Read clue and answer and still don't get it. :evil: |
|
| Posted by hradilv | 02/05/08 |
| Completely un-solvable :evil: |
|
| Posted by redhedinsanity | 02/05/08 |
| This was brilliant! Great job :) |
|
| Posted by clearisacolour | 02/05/08 |
| I had no idea, even after reading it multiple times, what i was even looking for. I thought maybe it was "be seated", because a queen is a bee, a chair is a seat, and "you" could have been Ed?
That's as far as I could get. |
|
| Posted by SweetPotato | 02/05/08 |
| I like that, thanks. I don't feel so bad about not solving this one ... usually most others not only solve them when I can't, but some say they solved them very easily. Well, it looks like no one got it so far. :-? :D |
|
| Posted by 2ndhandrose | 02/05/08 |
| It makes some sense when I see the answer but I wouldn't know
how to arrive at it without more
instruction :o
:roll: Baffled by this.
Thanks for the entry though. :D |

| Very clever and well questioned |
|
| Posted by craniac | 02/05/08 |
| Sorry, but I don't think this is a good teaser. An acceptable riddle should be capable of being solved. This one isn't. There just aren't enough specific clues given. |
|
| Posted by hipeople | 02/05/08 |
| i didnt get it at all very confusin :-? |
|
| Posted by jabdr | 02/05/08 |
| Too cute :roll: Too clever :roll: And too hard :-? We should have an "Impossible" category I guess. 8) |
|
| Posted by Solwyvern | 02/05/08 |
| I like the idea of this, but an example to clarify what you were looking for would have been helpful. |
|
| Posted by sbuske | 02/05/08 |
| I have to agree this was not a very good riddle. |
|
| Posted by GrandmaB | 02/05/08 |
| It was fun to read what the solution was,
but it was a bit too obscure to be a teaser. Maybe a second verse to hint that it is a play on one word would have helped to make it less frustrating. :wink: |
|
| Posted by AuthenticallyMe | 02/05/08 |
| Nice teaser! It was fun to solve...I didn't get the right answer, but what I got fits the criteria. I came up with "I am what I am". Very vague, but it answers the question and the riddle.
Thanks for your creative teaser and keep more like it coming. ^_^ |
|
| Posted by fishhooky | 02/05/08 |
| Brilliant concept. Possibly lacking a little in the execution, although the riddle itself is well-written. Perhaps alluding to the 'I am notable' clue but suggesting this is what the queen would say doesn't help the reader a lot. Probably just too good for all of us. |

| brilliant poetry, brilliant concept, but lacks directive... you cant solve a riddle if you dont understand exactly what it is you are looking for :( :( :( |
|
| Posted by auntiesis | 02/06/08 |
| Very confusing without more of a clue as to what you were looking for. A very well written little poem, but not enough explanation. Keep on trying. :wink: 8) |
|
| Posted by oddrey | 02/07/08 |
| I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ONE!!!!!!!!! a bit confusing, but still great. |
|
| Posted by mondayschild59 | 02/07/08 |
| I didn't get it right, but I still liked it very much. Thanks for posting a wonderful teaser.
Monday~ :D |

| Umm who made that up...... Boring |
|
| Posted by Zag24 | 04/15/09 |
| I agree that it is very clever, and extremely well presented. However, I also agree that it is pretty unsolvable by a mortal.
Perhaps it could be fixed with a hint. You could say, "All three responses you received have the same letters in the same order, but with different spacing that makes them different words." That might be enough. |

| If I were to ask the Queen and the chair
Both to tell me what they were,
-So the queen said here that she's notable? And she's also elegant, royal, famous..
And then should beg of you to bear
To the top of the house the Queen and her chair,
-so now her chair said he's not a table and also he's not a cabinet
The Queen, her chair, and yourself, all three,
so now I say i'm not able? Should I say you too? But why should I even say that? And why the hell I'm dragged into this riddle?
This is a poorly constructed riddle. The rhyming is excellent but the content, uhm let's just get back on the rhyming. :lol: |
