Haggisv, can you give a little hint? The last sentence troubles me, what do you mean by go higher?

Nope. Not cedar wood. Here's another hint--one that may totally give it away. Don't think of something made from the wood of a tree, but rather something made from the bark of a tree.

Well, Jim, my quota to guess yours is up for today, guess I 'll have to try tomorrow, if that is still not solved.

Would the answer be the sponge under the rubber sheet?

If it's Adham Sharara, none. He would just ban light bulbs.

LMAO!

You know, I really don't like Adham jokes, but for some reason, I always laughs at your one liners about him :lol:

Riddle you say?

Riddle me this,
riddle me that,
Long A is the s***,
I use it to hit
and my name is ... ?

To easy? Yes I guess so :lol:

It is ME.

I want the ban revoke(d)
the weapon I use are jokes,
and they always hit the spot,
I wont tell you my name,
It's such a shame,
but I can tell you what it's not!

To easy again? Man this is hard work!

MNNB

Not skilled enough to be light,
never accused of being to bright,
but I'm here to stay
as true as my name is?

Nah, that one is to hard, not even I know the answer to that one... :wink:

Joking like Homer Doh!
But things haven't been Status Quo.
I've been transfered across continents,
Lived in barracks or tents.
Trying to hone my skills,
mostly by doing serving drills.
I still think I would be dead meat,
if Speedplay unleashes his heat.

Yes, a little harder, so I'll give you all a clue:


Der_E

Not made from flesh and bone,
you might say I'm harder then stone!
In the jungle I live,
further clues I will not give,
I don't use a bandanna,
but I wouldn't turn down a banana.

Any takers?

MAGIC MONKEY

Is it a plane, a bird or a fish?
No, it is the Scottish national dish!
The V is for victory that will not stop,
still I refuse to promote "my" shop!
This forum is the nail and I'm the hammer,
sitting on top as the worst spammer,
well over ten thousand posts to my name,
is it a pride or a shame? :wink:

Yes, that one should do it, now I'm sure I won't win anything :lol:

HAGGISV

Things that float
and things that sink
that is my trademark, that is my ink.

As a senior I am allowed to play,
but when I have teenager symptoms I am banned,
Thank you ITTF, you already made on rule against me,
this only confirms your betray!

Who am I?

Don't know yet, still thinking , but I want to answer all others first.

Hard? Yes, really :D
Out of ideas, but those of you who can't answer my questions, welcome to the forum, as I guess you are all pretty new here :wink:

I can't provide answer anymore today, but Magic Monkey is a long pip rubber manufactured by GuoQiu, we had a thread about this rubber sometimes ago and I just happened to have a sheet which I am putting it on Joola MC1.

I will still think about the one I miss and the one that I didn't guess, hopefully, not too long, but since your riddles are relatively easy to guess (it only took me the time to finish reading to know the answers), I am afraid I don't even have the chance by tomorrow.

Well, no. And the answer needs little explanation.

Just one--but he really has to "spin" it!

Hehe.. Nice explanation but.. I am not sure one player can still do that. Could you please try and post a video ;)

4???

No. What are they going to do?

:lol: Best answer so far but incorrect.

I'm glad you found them to be easy, since some of them are obvious as soon as you read them, that was the intention with them. Any one who's been around here for some time will think of you as soon as they hear the mentioning of Long A. So, most of them are really easy, but perhaps the one you need time to think about will be a little harder to solve.

I'm black or red,
act like I'm dead.

Despite that, I'm still pretty young and new,
made in a hurry from the Dr's stew.

All my ancestors were dead before I was born,
but this was to your joy and nothing to mourn.

With out hitting the breaks I'm still pretty slow,
but nothing compared to my ancestors, you know.


Who/What am I?

I am made in Germany
This makes my Tensor status unclear to some
My name is very well known
But not for what you might think
Cause the name of myself
is also the name of a shopping precinct
in Melbourne
(sorry people in the other side of the world, might not be a handy hint for you guys, but it's made by a chinese manufacturer)

Who/What am I?

This might be easy as hell, but here goes.

I am as light as a feather
But I pack the punch of a hammer
And one would be lucky to find anything on me.

What am I?

Which direction does one go when you go 'higher'?

729 'Highpoint'? (I'm still unclear whether it's a tensor or not)
