If Nobody didn't do anything, then Who did. But if Somebody would have done something, Everyone would have been OK. If Everyone would have helped, Who would get the credit. But Who did it....
So, Who did it?

Fun and easy.
my son's 1st grade teacher sent this one home to make sure the kids were prepared to do tests for no child left behind. She sent a letter home with the answer because of the phone calls from parents who child got it but they didn't.
doh! I missed the first line!!!
Funny and easy!
i thought that was a good one, considering its one of the first ones i've gotten on this site
a lot of fun!
silly
That was really easy, but really fun. Good job!
It was confusing , but I LOVED it! I'm putting it in my favorites
Good teaser. Could you imagine the chaos if the members of a family had those names. Utter chaos! I enjoyed this one.
i think u should have typed the whole thing in caps lock
Ripped off of a poem though, but good.
i didn't "rip" it off of the poem, is this in poem context? besides, i've never seen the poem (not that i dont believe there is a poem, cuz there prolly is) i got this off a "reading" assignment, it was a lot LOT longer, and we had like 2 min. to read it, and think about it, and then had to answer it with out looking back
shouldnt it have been who did it.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, are u alive? it says
"So, Who did it?"
its not that hard to see. And if u mean the "W" should be in lowercase, ur wrong LOOK AT THE ANSWER
"So, Who did it?"
its not that hard to see. And if u mean the "W" should be in lowercase, ur wrong LOOK AT THE ANSWER
or, if u mean exclude the question mark, u r still wrong. It could be said like "So, Bob did it?" (bob being "who") or it could be "So, who did it?" (asking the question) how it is now, it is really stating a fact, in question form, which is correct. if i did not answer ur question, PM me, i would like to help u.
Easy.
cool one, reminds me of "Who's on First"
hmm... i agree wit cat4romMars... but its really good!! a little confusing, but maybe thats cuz im blonde....
listn tequilla, don't have such little faith in yourself. its like i always say, he who has faith, has style.
sorry. my cousin woz messin around with my computer. what i meant to say woz he who has faith, has brains.
I got it right away, but then second guessed myself. The answer was so simple. Good one
Hey, heads up to all of u, there is some1 trying to fix this, and i dont want it that way, this is my teaser, and i dont want it the way they say (besides, the way they did it really didnt help) they changed the answer to
"Who did, because "Who" is the name of a person"
i think that is quite, how do i put it? "stupid". I want it to stay how it is, because that is how it should be, it makes it a little more "fun" The way they "fixed" it to, makes it boring. So, if u all could help me out, vote "no" for that. Because i want it to stay the same.

big swaff - you might think the answer/explanation being offered is stupid, but think about it, you already knew the answer.
even though i guessed the answer, the way your answer is phrased is incredibly confusing!! the explanation you say they're trying to change it to makes it a lot clearer as to what the answer is
even though i guessed the answer, the way your answer is phrased is incredibly confusing!! the explanation you say they're trying to change it to makes it a lot clearer as to what the answer is
but that is not the question it asked (that wuz the point i tried to make) take it this way, lets say "Who" was actually named "Bob" that makes the question "So, Bob did it?" because in the question when it said "Who" it was referring to the person. So, if the answer is "Bob did (or Who), because Bob is a person" that does not fit the question. Now, i guess u could go back and change the question, but that would be basically changing my whole teasers format. If this gets accepted (or even not) i will go back and fix it the way i want it, not back to before, cuz' i agree it was confusing, but back to a better format, explaining it. Who ever "corrected" it did not relize the "question" being asked, so, the gave the wrong answer in terms of gramatical correctness.
Easy, but worth the time.
Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy Easy
But still a good teaser

You answered the question twice and I still had to read it a couple of times. I got it right though. but those names make it confusing. Even when you give us the answer twice in the riddle! LOL
what was with the ?
That reminds me of the joke about a baseball team. Who's on First or something. I liked it
I LUVED IT....it was a good teaser...definetly goin in my favorites it was so simple it was hard..ya know
Very good! I enjoyed it.
Excellent!!! loved it!!
Don't you think the answer should have been "Who", instead of yes???
Don't like it at all
But that's just me
But that's just me
The answer should be "Yes", because I asked "Who did it?".
Lets say "Who" was actually named Bob. The question would then have been "So, Bob did it?".
The answer is "Yes, Who did do it".

Very cool, but it kinda made me dizzy.
That was the best teaser EVER!!!!!!! It was really fun and funny. lol. I'm a newcomer so I haven't seen many, but I got to say that was the best i've seen. That was a good one who ever made it. You should make more of those kind. Oh yeah. If any body sees this comment please make me not lonely and pm me or go on my chat box! My box is Talk if you are new,I'm lonely. I don't care if you aren't new, I just want someone to talk to! Thanks!
I think it was great - well written and I got it straight away!! Love these types of teasers!
i figured out it was Who even before i saw the ending question. i feel so smart
I liked it, it was esay but it made me feel smart for being able to follow it and get it right.
it was CONFUSING!!!!
Like looking for sail mending (huge) needle in haystack after haystack has been spread on floor of busy stable for three days. Success is easy, but effort is manure-y.
Somebody said that Nobody likes me, but I like Everybody. So Who am I?
Sorry. Story of my life, but not as great as this. Of course he did! (Or she.)
