Title: Re: Talk about versatile... Post by Noke Lieu on Apr 16th, 2009, 6:49pm nope. I suspect that there's going to be a lot of this- someone guesses a word without explaining why, I say "no" someone else has a shot-, so I might wait until a couple of answers are posted before I reply. Remember there's going to be a lot of misdirection here- I write riddles a little differently to you guys. |

Title: Re: Talk about versatile... Post by Three Hands on Apr 17th, 2009, 2:18pm Wind? (not sure about left out or seedy) Nuts? Maybe not... Olives or Cherries might have more of a shout if they had seeds, rather than a stone, in their natural form, but could be worth mentioning. Can't come up with anything that feels a definite fit yet, though... |

Title: Re: Talk about versatile... Post by cheesepuff on Apr 18th, 2009, 6:30pm I'm thinking wine but that seems to work for even less lines than grapes so... |

Title: Re: Talk about versatile... Post by Noke Lieu on Apr 20th, 2009, 2:06am as you yourself say... wine is substantially far from the intended. Another day or so, and I'll have to give a clue, by the looks of it. (that's quite literal) |

heh. That's like answering "what am I?" with "a person asking a question" It's only been 3 days or so, I can let you stew for a bit more yet. |

Well, yes. Happenstance, though. And mostly the intended answer, but more strictly R, A, P, E, S They can be thrust; spear They can be cuts; pares They can be left out; spare They can be fruity; pears They can be following; apres They can be gathering; reaps But they're not. Not this time. This time, they're seedy. rapes (as in canola) |
