- Find a way to split these numbers into groups. There is a pattern that is common in all the groups of numbers so when you split them look for patterns and you'll know you split it correctly. Solve Riddle to find the name of a Harry Potter character.

Clues: There are 44 numbers, and they split evenly, so the amount of numbers in a single group times the number of groups will give you 44. That gives several choices:
.2 groups of 22 numbers
.4 groups of 11 numbers
.11 groups of 4 numbers
.22 groups of 2 numbers
I suggest you try each groupings and look for the trend, it is something that links one group of numbers to the previous.


X: I noticed you told us to be looking for a trend that connects "groups of numbers," referring to the separate digits. Does that mean we should not look at the numbers as multi-digit numbers, but as groupings of single-digit numbers?

J: I'll show a small example of the problem youface:

68643432 << this can be split into 6864 + 3432 as the first term in the group is half of the previous first term, same with the second and same with the third and forth.

The difference in the actual riddle is that not all the terms are linked like the one above, it might be that only one term in a grouping is linked to the others. Don't worry, if it's the first term in the grouping that is significant then it'll be the first all the way through. Also, in the example above it is split into fours, this may/may not be the case in the riddle.




I don't know if anyone's solved this riddle yet, but I think I've found something.
When you separate the numbers into 11 sections of 4 numbers and put them in columns, there is a pattern diagonally:
5 1 4 3
1 0 2 2
0 1 0 0
1 6 8 1
6 8 5 0
8 7 0 5
7 2 1 5
2 4 4 0
4 4 8 4
4 0 1 0
0 9 6 3
Am I at least close?? :p
Also, the zeros on the last column alternate (two numbers, zero, one number, zero, etc.):
3
2
0
1
0
5
5
0
4
0
3

Ok, I think I've solved it. Is it James Potter?
I added the number in each row together and got:
13 5 1 16 19 20 15 10 20 5 18
M E A P S T O J T E R
Which anagrams to: James Potter. :)
How'd I do? I'm a little out of practice...haven't been on this thread in a long time!!! :p

Ok, here's one from me. :)

Somewhere in this shopping list lies the name of a Harry Potter character...who??

- kiwis
- green beans
- savoury snacks
- truffles
- torch
- cherries
- cereal (muesli)
- 50g prawns
- 3 packets of nuts
- 500 grams of chicken

Breaking story! Birds make arrows out of the wind!!!!

Ha ha, thanks. :)

hey all!!

tibs, is it dumbledore's friend whose scar looked like a map of london?

can't remember the friends name, or exact relationship, but yeah.

there ya go for now.

tibs, is it dumbledore's friend whose scar looked like a map of london?

can't remember the friends name, or exact relationship, but yeah.That might be because it's Dumbledore himself who has that scar :lol:

No, it's not the owner of the London Underground scar, Dumbledore or otherwise....

Good to see you, N&H! Long time no see!

yeah it's been a while, but you know i had to come back with this next BIG couple of weeks!!!

i'm excited and sad all at the same time!!!

Wow, you guys are really something! I sat for an hour trying to figure just one of these out. Here's a number one, hope it's not too easy!

816521222311180272158

Clue: What he comes from and how he got here.

Edit: :rotfl: I took about 10 minutes just now trying to figure out my own puzzle, only to realize I posted it wrong! I fixed it. :elaugh: I triple checked before posting the correction, so I'm sure it's right now.

I've got one too :D I think it's probably pretty easy though, but let's see...

Grown, a safehouse, to harbor and lock,
Please stay away of you'll get quite a shock.

Stretching from steps to the shore of the lake,
No prize for the greatest will his family take.

Your capital helps those who haven't a car
Picadilly to Bakerloo, it'd be quite a scar.

Put it together and what have you got?
:scared: bippity-boppity-boo? or not :)

YES! Well done willowswish! :D That is right!

Ok, here's one from me. :)

- kiwis
- green beans
- savoury snacks
- truffles
- torch
- cherries
- cereal (muesli)
- 50g prawns

- 500 grams of chicken

This is all I could see...

5 0 G _ P R A W N S

5 0 0 _ G R A M S _ O F _ C H I C K E N

So, I got Snuffles, except there's an "F" missing. Am I at least on the right track?

I'll have a go kala:

Grown, a safehouse, to harbor and lock,
Please stay away of you'll get quite a shock.
12 Grimmauld place, it grows after Harry read the message and it's a hideout and there is the lock(et)

Stretching from steps to the shore of the lake, the Hogwarts grounds
No prize for the greatest will his family take. Hagrid (small for a giant)? Flittwick? The Creevees?

Your capital helps those who haven't a car
Picadilly to Bakerloo, it'd be quite a scar. (The London) underground? Tube? Subway?

Anything useful in there ?

Clue: What he comes from and how he got here.

Ok, I realized that my puzzle might be a little tough to figure out with just one enigmatic clue, so I'll give you guys some more, less vague hints. :)

Clue 2: It is NOT an anagram.
Clue 3: The number puzzle and Clue #1 can be viewed as two separate riddles with the same answer.
Clue 4: 59181522581 <-- also not an anagram, really
Clue 5: There are a total of 3 steps

Hope this makes it less cryptic.

The third part is referring to the London Underground, but what about it?
Not quite for the first two parts...

Grown, a safehouse, to harbor and lock, I first thought of the Whomping Willow here, as it is grown and it keeps Remus in and other students out of the Shrieking Shack
Please stay away of you'll get quite a shock.Maybe not a litteral shock, but a tree smacking you across the face would definitely shock you.

Stretching from steps to the shore of the lake, I also thought the Hogwarts grounds, but I guess not... Maybe the Burrow?
No prize for the greatest will his family take. Which would make this maybe a reference to the Weasleys (Ron)?

Your capital helps those who haven't a car Because I thought of the Ministry lending cars to them in PoA...
Picadilly to Bakerloo, it'd be quite a scar.

Put it together and what have you got?
:scared: bippity-boppity-boo? or not :)

I'm probably way off, though... I can't figure out how they go together.

Grown, a safehouse, to harbor and lock, I first thought of the Whomping Willow here, as it is grown and it keeps Remus in and other students out of the Shrieking Shack
Please stay away of you'll get quite a shock.Maybe not a litteral shock, but a tree smacking you across the face would definitely shock you. yep that's right! The line's referring to the whomping willow...


Stretching from steps to the shore of the lake, I also thought the Hogwarts grounds, but I guess not... Maybe the Burrow?
No prize for the greatest will his family take. Which would make this maybe a reference to the Weasleys (Ron)? The first line is referring to something to do with the Hogwarts grounds, but more specific than general. The second line is referring to something...else.

Murzim was right about the London underground for the third part...

Hint: The three parts come together in one word.

As far as I understand it, we have three words/syllables, each coded with two lines that add up to one word:

Grown, a safehouse, to harbor and lock,
Please stay away of you'll get quite a shock.
The whomping willow -> tree


Stretching from steps to the shore of the lake,
No prize for the greatest will his family take.
1 the lawn -> grass STOP LAUGHING YOUR HEAD OFF


Your capital helps those who haven't a car
Picadilly to Bakerloo, it'd be quite a scar.
Picadilly and Bakerloo are underground lines , and Dumbledore's scar will have lines


Put it together and what have you got? treegrassline :hmm:
bippity-boppity-boo? or not not:nc:

Enjoy! :)

Sholeigh
I see the following

Grapes = Summer, Food, Wine ,Life ,Vines , Wand Wood ?
Holly Berries = Winter, Holidays , festivals ,Wand Wood ?
A phoenix = Fall , Renewed Life , Power, Dumbledore? Harrys Wand ?
A dragon = Strength, Magic , Power?
Somekind of Plant = Spring , Growth, life , change

any of this near correct or even close ?

You're on the right track with your conclusions for the first three :)

Is it the wands of the trio?

Hermione: Vine Wood and Dragon heart string--the grapes and the dragon
Harry: Holly wood and phoenix feather--berries and phoenix
Ron: Willow and unicorn hair--I don't know what that plant is either, doesn't look like the willow leaves I've seen pics of (or the ash leaves from his first wand), but I'll guess that the empty piece should contain a unicorn??

Correct! :D

The willow image turned out a bit blurry. I thought maybe the catkin would be recognisable. No matter :)

Clue for mine post # 228

three steps last is anagraming first is base conversion

Have Fun

twins:p

21,30,114,144,212,230,244,331,400,421,1011,1032
11,15,34,49,57,65,74,91,100,111,231,242

And since that leaves no room for converting to letters as a step, I'm assuming you didn't count it as one?

Some anagraming is needed .

21,30,114,144,212,230,244,331,400,421,1011,1032
11,15,34,49,57,65,74,91,100,111,231,242
Actually, I think the last two are 131 and 142 in base 5.

From that it would indeed be hard to convert to letters with all the 1's and 0's so I figured you have to do something else.

You gave the little poem so I figured I'd use that. So I took the 11th, 15th, 34th, etc. letter from the poem and came up with:
G T T F W U R L T S A A :hmm:
I thought it was gonna be Hogwarts till I got to the end and found no H or O so...FLAT GUT WARTS or GULF WAR TATTS :D but nothing that I can see that's HP related at the moment.

Not sure if this is even the right direction, but maybe somebody else can help me out :rockon:

You gave the little poem so I figured I'd use that. So I took the 11th, 15th, 34th, etc. letter from the poem and came up with:
G T T F W U R L T S A A
The G is correct after that you miss counted .

G er b U t So try counting them up again ok.

Actually, I think the last two are 131 and 142 in base 5.

Yes thats right :agree:

You're on the right track keep going .:tu:

twins:p

The G is correct after that you miss counted .

G er b U t So try counting them up again ok.

Yes thats right :agree:

You're on the right track keep going .:tu:

:D ok, so I can't count...actual letters G U I D E B A R R U S H
which becomes Rubeus Hagrid!

How do you do that?

How do you do that?
do what? :hmm: I used the little Gringotts poem he gave...
to fix my counting mistake I actually put each letter on a separate line in excel til I got to 142 on the left bar :whistle: worked well! then it was just the anagram

I'd have never gotten that it was in a different base without the hint, that's pretty creative. Is that a common cypher technique twins? I guess it would be harder to tell if you used like base 9 or something. I love that TV show Numb3rs and they're always solving complex riddles and such. Charlie always notices weird things like a set of numbers having no 9's :err: I wish I was that sharp! this is sounding really rambly...cheers

I don't know if I'd call it a common technique, but it's definitely in the arsenal for the riddles involving math. My first riddle ever on this thread involved base conversion. Wow... that was a really long time ago.

Super simple riddle here, it's really easy if you just don't think too hard. There's no secret code to unlock or any letters to rearrange its just a simple riddle. I think it's either going to come across as insanely easy and someone will get it in an instant or else no one will have any idea what I'm talking about.....Hopefully the latter. Anyway, try this one out:

Seven letters
For seven heirs
To a Name
That’s filth is
Pure.
For Seven
Pieces
To this One,
A seven part
Riddle is sure.
One must be paid
And is Seven’s greatest
Of Six,
Two’s a horse
That’s purpose
Is either pain or
Kicks.
Three betrayed
Has not repaid,
And failed corruption of Six.
Though Two of Name
From one in
Same,
Four and Five
Were borne.
Six is King
And Seven a Queen
Who with binding
The Name is
Shorn.
The final
Is the last to bear
That Name
Of which you seek,
The Queen is One
Despite the Six
But find this not
As weak.
From Two
was born the seven-part
Heir
Whose name
Is yours to find
So find the One
That calls to Seven
And each will fall behind.

Your task is to find the one Name that binds the Seven and then find each of the Seven.

This is all I could see...

K I W I S
G R E E N _ B E A N S
S A V O U R Y _ S N A C K S
T R U F F L E S
T O R C H
C H E R R I E S
C E R E A L ( M U E S L I )
5 0 G _ P R A W N S
3 _ P A C K E T S _ O F _ N U T S
5 0 0 _ G R A M S _ O F _ C H I C K E N

So, I got Snuffles, except there's an "F" missing. Am I at least on the right track?

Nope, sorry. You're not close...at least...not really; you're on the right track in the way you found it...but you're not particularly close, sorry. :)

:D ok, so I can't count...actual letters G U I D E B A R R U S H
which becomes Rubeus Hagrid!

Sometimes its the simple things that trip us up . ;)


Well Done You got it :tu: :lol:

twins:p

Somebody have a go at my riddle! It's quite easy if you don't think too hard, there aren't any crazy patterns to count or letters to rearrange it's just a word riddle.

Aagh! I've been trying but not getting too far. It seems to be very cleverly written :)

For a first guess, are letters one and two S and I?

I think your Riddle is all about the Weasley family .

1. Bill must be paid
2. Charlie is a Horse
3. Percy is one who betrayed
4&5 are Fred & George
6. Ron "Weasley is King " song
7. Ginny When she weds she changes her name

Arthur & Molly Weasley & family

Ok thats my guess for your Riddle .

twins:p

I agree ^ :lol:

Yup!!!! Yay! I love the weasley's! SO I wrote a riddle about them....hahaha. Good job... I guess it was kind of easy if you just don't think too hard.

Ok here we go Anagram Square

1. VLOSA

Oh! I completely didn't think of Drape,for some odd reason, and I didn't even know salvo was a word. . . .

I'd gotten Drape and Dance, but was lost on the rest, and well I did get Salvo, I just didn't know it was a word, either.

I think it's one of those mysterious 'twins words' you have to watch out for ;)
Actually I was impressed with myself, I had heard salvo before. Seen too many war films, I reckon.

Well Done Sholeigh :clap:

I find that when you make up one of these anagram squares that to get the right letters in the right places you have to use the whole dictionary . So sometimes I use obscure words . Think of it as a challenge and a learning experience. :tu:

Well, I don't know what that third word is either but the cross words are Anthony and Michael (Goldstein and Corner I assume).

Racnoly or Nacroly or Lacrony or Lacnory and other various combos didn't come up as words in dictionary.com but I didn't try every combo :D

3. NORCYLA

Racyola, Yacroln, Lycroan, Yacnoal, Anclory, Ancroly, Nacloyr, Racloyn, Ryclona

It's an English word, right? :lol:

Ok Kala Way & Monkeeshrines I'll give it to you . :lol:

Your are right it is Michael & Anthony

#3 is Alcyone

It is the name of a 3rd. magnitude star in the constellation Taurus .
Alcyone also is a name in a greek myth.

Time for a clue? Does it involve anagraming? And is the answer a Quidditch team?

You just have to find different words that say the same thing.

For example, silly ringing entrance is dumb bell door.

for monkeeshrines' riddle, i decoded one of the clues:

59181522581 - taking the numbers from right to left, and converting them to letters, we get REVERSE. we probly should use something like that to solve the riddle, but i got nothing yet... so i thought someone else could use that clue. :)

Converting numbers to letters gives words from the Radio Operators' Alphabet:
7,15,12,6/ = golf
8,15,20,5,12/ = hotel
14,15,22,5,13,2,5,18/ = november
1,12,16,8,1/ = alpha
3,8,1,18,12,9,5/ = charlie
15,19,3,1,18/ = oscar
8,15,20,5,12/ = hotel
3,8,1,18,12,9,5. = charlie

Then translate to single letters:
g h n a c o h c

And anagram to give:
Cho Chang

Yeh, I'd worked out Jackals and Montana, but nothing else. I think the name starting at the bottom going up is Perkins, but that would mean 4 isn't speaker, so I don't know...

Ah, yes, you're right, 8m.

WOW you did a lot of work there .:lol:
Ok there are two mistakes in the riddle One I did and one you did .

The one I did was in #3 KAGIRAM should be KAGIRNM

It was late and I put 2 A's in it instead of 1 A & an N Sorry :upset:

The one you did is that there is only 1 E in #4 REPKASC

BTW You did get the names right :tu: :lol:

twins:p

Ooops! I ignored the "C". Is this better?

3. MARKING
4. PACKERS

#3 was much easier this time. :D

Harry and Ron are having some fun with a Quidditch set. They've got their own broomsticks, and they're playing with a Golden Snitch. They've chosen to play on a long straight road well away from Muggle eyes.

They start at opposite ends of the road, which is ten miles long. They start flying towards each other at a speed of 30 miles an hour, both starting at the exact same time. As soon as they start moving, Harry releases the Snitch, which flies directly towards Ron. As soon as the snitch reaches Ron, it turns around and flies back to Harry. The Snitch keeps at a speed of 48 miles an hour.

How far will the snitch fly before Harry and Ron meet?

The Snitch keeps at a speed of 48 miles an hour.

How far will the snitch fly before Harry and Ron meet?
Ok, not certain that I did my math right but if they're going 30mph then each would have gone 5 miles (the half way point) in 10 minutes. If the snitch is going 48mph, that means it's going .8 miles per minute. So in 10 minutes it would have flown 8 miles.



Here's a bit of a breakdown on mine...

No math involved! The numbers represent something which represents a letter. First one is a bit hard so, start further on...

I think your math is right, Kala. That's what I got, too.

But, considering it's Tiberius and he loves to play with words :D(and this is a riddle thread, after all), maybe the answer is just the five miles... When it reached Ron, it turns back, thereby undoing some of its distance (if you get my meaning). Sort of a "two steps forward, one step back means you only really took one step forward" type of thing. Then, whether or not Harry catches the Snitch when it reaches him again and brings it with him the rest of the way (if Harry's flying, any Snitch in his hand is flying too), or it turns back toward Ron and keeps going back and forth between the two, it will really only have gone the five miles from where it started to the midway point since Harry and Ron are going the same speed (rendering the Snitch's speed and all that math irrelevant...)

Or maybe I'm over-thinking it...

Ok, not certain that I did my math right but if they're going 30mph then each would have gone 5 miles (the half way point) in 10 minutes. If the snitch is going 48mph, that means it's going .8 miles per minute. So in 10 minutes it would have flown 8 miles.

Yep!

I'm going to guess that it's a mountain or other rock being eroded.

Yeah, I was going to guess either a mountain or a candle.

"All the same, we should get to bed," whispered Hermione. “It

wouldn't do to oversleep tomorrow." “No," agrees Ron. “A brutal

triple murder by the bridegroom’s mother might put a bit of a

damper on the wedding. I'll get the lights."

Umm...here's one.

The death for which the younger took the blame
Committed by the one he could not name
They've ten between them, ten that do not see
Now name the leader and his enemy.

Hmmm. Well I haven't got the answer, but breaking it down:
A married leader and a single slave Makes me think of the Malfoys and Dobby
The toothless elder now gone to his grave Oooh - the "ELDER" wand has gone to Dumbledore's grave!!! Heh?
The death for which the younger took the blame Malfoy? Took the blame for killing Dumbledore - and got the Elder wand! Malfoys younger than Snape who actually killed Dumbledore.
Committed by the one he could not name I'm guessing that "the one he could not name" is Voldemort.
They've ten between them, ten that do not see ???
Now name the leader and his enemy. ???

OK, I know that's not very good, but am I on the right tracks?...near the right tracks...within sight of the right tracks...with binoculars...?

Could the ten between them be a reference to the DA and the Death Eaters? If true, would that be Harry and Voldy? or maybe the order of the Phoenix and the Death eaters?

Wow, great guesses, but no to both.

"Hang on a moment!" said Ron sharply. "We've forgotten someone!"

"Who?" asked Hermione.

"The house-elves, they'll all be down in the kitchen, won't they?"

"You mean we ought to get them fighting?" asked Harry.

"No," said Ron seroiusly, "I mean we should tell them to get out. We don't want any more Dobby's do we? We can't order them to die for us."

THERES A WAR GOING ON HERE! " RON AND HERMIONE BROKE APART ,

THEIR ARMS STILL AROUND EACH OTHER .


Also what was my confusion as I was solving this:

Z being Y seems to be working out fine. However, not Y being Z; it’s causing major problems, and I think it should be S. Or is it a three way thing, where Y=S, S=Z, and Z=Y?? Also, every time there’s UBF, well, I think F is supposed to be R, so that it would come out AND. Unless there’s something weird going on here, too, but I don’t think so. Or wait… D=R, R=F, and F=D!?!?

Well, at least I figured it out eventually, right??

I think everyone's confused about mine.

Hint: It's in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

A married leader and a single slave
The toothless elder now gone to his grave
The death for which the younger took the blame
Committed by the one he could not name
They've ten between them, ten that do not see
Now name the leader and his enemy.

hmm....

A married leader and a single slave Did you say absolutely no to Malfoy and Dobby? I don't know who other than houselves would be considered slaves and we don't see other houselves till later. Also, we know of very few people that are for sure married, and even fewer of those who could be considered leaders...Is Cornelius Fudge married?
The toothless elder now gone to his grave Professor Binns? is he toothless?
The death for which the younger took the blame Moaning Myrtle--Hagrid took the blame
Committed by the one he could not name Voldy
They've ten between them, ten that do not see ?? ten chapters? :lol: ten people that don't know the truth?
Now name the leader and his enemy....

:agree: *is confused*

You got Moaning Myrtle as the death right....but Hagrid didn't take the blame.

No to Malfoy, and no to house-elves. It's in CoS, with a reference to HBP.

:hmm: lets see now !

A married leader and a single slave -Aragog & the Basilisk
The toothless elder now gone to his grave - Salazar slytherin his statue in the CoS had no teeth.
The death for which the younger took the blame- Moaning Myrtle- Aragog was blamed for killing her
Committed by the one he could not name - Voldemort or as a kid Tom Riddle
They've ten between them, ten that do not see --Eyes Aragog is blind

Now name the leader and his enemy. - Tom Riddle & Harry Potter

Is any of that close ??

twins:p

Psst Twins. You've already named the leader and his enemy in your answers :whistle:

I made them by using Vectors in PSP 9: I made a circle on a vector layer, then with the text tool I click on the edge of the circle and it automatically formatted it to fit around the circle.

CLUES:
1. What he comes from and how he got here.
2. It is NOT an anagram.
3. The number puzzle and Clue #1 can be viewed as two separate riddles with the same answer.
4. 59181522581 <-- also not an anagram, really = (REVERSE)
5. There are a total of 3 steps

4. 59181522581 - taking the numbers from right to left, and converting them to letters, we get REVERSE. we probly should use something like that to solve the riddle, but i got nothing yet... so i thought someone else could use that clue.

RESPONSE: Yes that is indeed the clue! Happiness! And, to help everyone out a bit more: that is indeed the first step to solve the riddle. The second involves math...

hi everyone! :wave:

@ willow:
is it relevant that you wrote the amount in two different ways?

- 50g prawns
- 500 grams of chicken

the number's themselves aren't directly relevant, but there is a specific reason i wrote it in two different ways. :)

At the end of the books Voldy is 71 (Chamber of secrets opened 50 years ago + he was 16 when it opened +and then the 5 years between CoS and DH)

And Hagrid would be ... three years younger; 68.

I have a few classic riddles given a HP twist. Here's the first:

Madeye Moody is carrying out surveilance by broom off the coast of Scotland. He drops two potion flasks, one is full, the other empty. Which one will hit the ground first?

Ah, I remember this very well.

They both hit the ground at the same time.

I was once working as an assistant groundskeeper at a primary school, and I actually asked some of the kids this very question (although without the HP twist, of course), and then tried it with two coke bottles, one filled with water and the other empty.

That is curious, but in this case not the correct answer.

Madeye Moody is carrying out surveilance by broom off the coast of Scotland. He drops two potion flasks, one is full, the other empty. Which one will hit the ground first?
he's over the sea, right? if he is, the full one would hit the ground first. the empty one would probably float...

he's over the sea, right? if he is, the full one would hit the ground first. the empty one would probably float...
That's also probably true, but not quite the answer to the riddle.

Oh, and yes, he's over the sea.

Neither will hit the ground first, he's over water, duh!

Neither will hit the ground first, he's over water
Yep, that was it :clap:


Here's the next riddle:

Late one night Harry, Ron and Hermione are sitting in the tent listening to the rain battering down. They start arguing about the weather, and Ron says, 'Give it 72 hours and I bet you we'll see bright sunshine.'

Hermione disagrees, of course. But how could she know?

I'm not aloud to guess again yet, am I? Cause, I know the answer.

72 hours later will be night again.

I'm not aloud to guess again yet, am I? Cause, I know the answer.

So if we're trying to make a sentence, maybe something like Drama's not high in pancakes. Lame toucan ropes pork? :lol: I'll keep thinking...




Oh wow I forgot all about this thread !(hangs head in shame)

It's a reunion! :clap: :rockon:

And Biara! Been ages since we've seen you! Come on MSN some time?

And I have no idea what any of the riddles are. :p

Eeks! :wow:

OK, from top left I can see:
- the theatre masks of comedy and tragedy
- a note
- hyena? not sure who that is
- pancakes
- lime
- toucan
- rope
- spork

So if we're trying to make a sentence, maybe something like Drama's not high in pancakes. Lame toucan ropes pork? :lol: I'll keep thinking...
Almost :p

Note, lime, toucan, rope and spork are correct
the first one, is quite correct too, just which word now?
hyena: you need the name
pancakes: not those, something else.

I'm stumped as well, tried a few things :hmm:
Actor's note ed toucan lime syrup rope spork ... don't know what the letters and numbers are. Are you supposed to put the words together? like 'note' & 'ed' are 'noted'? Don't know what that has to do with 3=N but it's a guess.

@ Tenshi's riddle

I've found out that the hyena is called Shenzi, from the Lion King.

I think the numbers and letters are meant to change each picture word:

Note --> third letter = n --> none
Toucan --> no third letter, sixth letter = l --> tocal.

Am I getting there?

EDIT:

I've got it! "There's no need to call me 'sir', professor."


Brilliant riddle idea! :tu:

Yes! :clap:

That was supposed to be "Ed" though. Stupid Google.
