    Due to the lack of traffic here, I'm starting a riddle competition.

    Someone posts up a riddle, ppl attempt to figure it out

    Whoever gets it will post up the next one

    I'll start the ball rolling

    "An airtight chest that has no key"

    "Wondrous Gold you'll find in me"

    One of them isn't a 20c coin.
    10c and 20c. You Scrubs copier you

    Now my one, more a rhetorical question than a riddle:

    What board has gone massively downhill in the past year due to it's spammy users, and has hit an all new low by being merely a mirror for After Hours threads?

    (Someone else may post a riddle in my place)

    But why did he call it a competition?

    "What is tall as a house,
    round as a cup,
    and all the king's horses
    can't draw it up?"

    "Never ahead, ever behind
    Yet flying swiftly past;
    For a child, I last forever,
    For adults I'm gone too fast."
