1. Were they playing baseball?
2. Was Joe wanting to go to home plate and score a run?
3. Was the man in the mask, the Catcher?

No, actually it was Monica's guess, that made me think of 'Home Plate'!
Romeo and I never talked about this in Chat. :D

So we both can't win.........what do we do now? :? Robyn, you didn't say 'Yes' to him, when he mentioned baseball earlier. Do you think you should have? Or, did we need to make an exact guess? Like me.. :D :D

NEW RIDDLE:


You can find me in darkness but never in light. I am present in daytime but absent at night. In the deepest of shadows, I hide in plain sight. What am I?

I guess when he wrote "like in baseball" I thought my yes would have been good enough. I even repeated yes as in protection and I thought I was saying too much with that....ooopssss. I suppose I could have said yes a baseball catchers mask but I thought this was yes or no.

:oops: sowwy :oops:

Juliet deleted her riddle but it was something like this:

A man lives on the 15th floor and when he goes to work he always goes down with the elevator to street-level. But when he comes back home, he goes with the elevator to the 8th floor and the rest of the way from the 8th to the 15th floor, he walks the stairs.

Except, when it's a rainy day. Then he goes with the elevator all the way to the 15th floor

Why is that? 8)

I agree Matt :D (Matt is your name though?)

But actually the riddle was about the elevator. 8)

About the rainy day was what I remember about the riddle, to make it a bit less easy. 8)

And Robyn, it's ok about baseball yes or no :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think this is about fun, and who asks the final question to finish solving the riddle, what does it matter anyway? As I said: My riddles are too easy or too hard, I don't know much about baseball and I'm not good at thinking out a new riddle. So it's all OK! :D :D :D

The elevator: when it's raining the man has an umbrella to reach for the button of the 15th floor because he is very small.

The shadow: I thought dlcs has solved it. The letter D

OH!!! The letter D!
Dangy
The only purpose of the D I used was to make an "argh!!!" smiley: Look carefully "D:"

Ugh, I feel so dumb that I answered the question without knowing I did. :roll:
Um uhh I guess I'll find a riddle to post. :lol:

I'm not really more than holes tied to more holes; I'm strong as good steel, though not as stiff as a pole.
What am I?
