A long time spent in ice and snow
Walking where the footless go
Passing by an ugly mark
And the dangerous thirst in the night so dark
A spell of rest and deadly screams
Run with the one above your dreams
Rats and lice I'll lead away
It's the nasty woman's special day
And then, remember, you must try
At last: the lie about the lie


Thank you very much for your guesses! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2752390508

Choices, Hagrid's trip to visit the giants is a good guess, but unfortunately not the answer to the riddle. (Lovely avatar, BTW! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2752390508 )

Mona, Dumbledore's death on the tower is also a good guess, but is not the answer, either.

Verity, the Giant Squid is not the answer, but I almost wish it was. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 67191906 Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 464751818

But, alas! The riddle has been solved.

LOL! I thought this riddle would be a shortlived one, but it was really fun to make one again. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2752390508 Thanks again for your guesses!

Congratulations, Julia! Now we're all waiting for your next riddle! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2752390508

Really??? affraid I didn't mean it! The riddle reminded me of Lockhart's books, but I couldn't figure out all the clues (like the "ugly mark", LOL), and I was sure there was a trick somewhere! I really like the riddle with this answer, too; but ... I'm sorry I can't start a new riddle now. In a few days, we are going away for a ten-day trip, and I won't be able to visit the Forum regularly (if at all).

Could someone, please, please, please, do it instead of me? flower flower flower

If it's Ok, I'll give it a try. This came to me in the middle of the night, so don't judge too harshly and don't guess it too quickly. lol!

Now that I'm leaving, what do you say?
Up, up and away, you'll see me no more today.
Once again, what do you say?


Let the guessing begin....... flower

Good guess, but it is not Buckbeak.

Now that I'm leaving, what do you say?
Up, up and away, you'll see me no more today.
Once again, what do you say?


Hint: The answer is actually what you would say to whatever is leaving.

Wow, some very thoughtful answers, but alas, it is not Wingardium Leviosa or Snape flying out the window. Mona does have the right idea with her answer "Coward!" That is what you might yell at Snape as he leaves.

Now that I'm leaving, what do you say?
Up, up and away, you'll see me no more today.
Once again, what do you say?


Hint #1: The answer is actually what you would say to whatever is leaving.
Hint #2: Remember hint #1.

Is it Marge flying away after she was blown up? Not sure what would be said to her, though.

More good guesses.....however it is not Aunt Marge or Expelliarmus. Thanks for those guesses though.


Now that I'm leaving, what do you say?
Up, up and away, you'll see me no more today.
Once again, what do you say?


Hint #1: The answer is actually what you would say to whatever is leaving.
Hint #2: Remember hint #1.
Hint #3: The first and last lines simply ask the question - What would you say to whatever is leaving? The line in the middle holds two important clues - up, up and away and you'll SEE me no more today.

Guesses: Something to do with Dumbledore, Buckbeak, Hedwig, Wingardium Leviosa, Snape flying out the window, Aunt Marge, Expelliarmus


I'll keep the riddle up one more day and if no one guesses it, I'll put up the answer tomorrow afternoon. :-)

Choices, I don't think it's a matter of you stopping the game... I think it's just a case of: most of the people who used to play this particular Potty Game don't really frequent this forum much anymore. And some who do check in on the Games threads all the time may feel that constructing riddles is not their strong suit. At least, that's what my reason is. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 1437562208 But to try and revive this thread, here's a quick riddle I came up with, while taking a shower. I'm sure the answer will be guessed quickly, if folks actually look in on this thread and venture a guess. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2398211921

Beware!
I'm charming.
I'm sweet.
I'll knock you off your feet!


Hopefully, there'll be a guess or two. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2752390508

Choices, yes I'd have to agree with PAH. We have gone through periods before where this thread has died for a little while, only to be revived by one of our riddlers, as PAH has now done. You definitely shouldn't take it personally! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 1003735042

Now for a guess. How about ... Fainting Fancies?

Verity, thanks for the guess. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 17 2222139670 You're on the right track, but that's not the answer I was thinking of.

Beware!
