Crap, I don't really have any that are coming to mind, and I'm too lazy to look around. I surrender my turn to whoever wants to go next. ^^

What's round in the morning, calls its own name at noon, and points in all directions at sunset?

Not quite a daisy actually. Your close (I didn't have the heart to tell her she's lost it)

Re: Riddle/puzzle game

Well, I thought a daisy was inspired!

Ok, then:
Lives without a body, hears without ears, speaks without a mouth, to which the air alone gives birth.

Re: Riddle/puzzle game

A city/ town/ metropolis

Re: Riddle/puzzle game

I've been there already. My post count has actually been steadily reducing as less serious threads have been slowly removed to playrooms and are no longer counted. Stranger still, I never used to be the highest poster at ASciFi. It is only since the others have lost posts that I have been promoted.

Ah well...for the second time then, we can celebrate! 10,000 posts is no mean feat, and getting there twice is even more awesome!

Re: Riddle/puzzle game

Back on topic then....

Is 'City' correct?

And please explain 'Daisy'. I get the 'Day-sigh' bit, but not the morning and evening.

Re: Riddle/puzzle game

Apparently Paige made the riddle up, so I wouldn't bend your brain trying to work it out!
