I am at times #14.
Am I hot, warm, or cold?
Or have I gone too far?

18, 22, 26, 54, 58, and 62 are all the possible answers you can get, yet none of them has the picture.


I assure you, there is only one answer to my riddle.


Not with the way you worded it.

Well, I found it, so I guess your riddle did work, however, the above proves that there was multiple answers. :P

Runedit: Very close in reveling the answer

its a riddle, meaning there are hidden meanings.

/me sighs

it means BAKERS DOZEN, which is different from a REGULAR DOZEN. why do you think I chose bakers, instead of carpenters, golfers, swimmers, etc?

Thats what I thought. *goes back to puzzling it out* I've never been good at riddles, but I'm going to give it a try.

*sob* :cry: Can someone else give a hint to the number of the issue?

Sun Oct 24, 2004 2:45 am

The answer to that question is 20....

oh yeah :P well my mind works differently. it could have made it clearer that each baker made a dozen. then i couldve said all that remian to be sold.

I'm so not seeing it. Is it the picture of a fire pet?

A baker's dozen is twelve, 12.

It's thirteen actually.

I got 59 as the answer. Is that correct or wrong?

Ooh, thats good. I used as much detail as I possibly could and kept getting the "must be under 50 characters" reminder. I didnt know spaces counted as characters. Aarrghh!!!

Well, the riddle said that one of the calculations required 12, so if it was a normal dozen, it would've just said a dozen for it, the "dozens" mentioned had to be baker's dozens
