New Riddles/ Brain Teasers Needed!

By the way, my #231 really is easyish. I’ll retract my threat to post a more difficult puzzle of this type.

Re: Indistinguishable’s puzzle. By the way, it may have been Lousy/Louse that gave it away. It always struck me as amusing or odd that this was a basic vocabulary item! :stuck_out_tongue:

Way to go, septimus! Now I can quit googling.

Shows the value of PERSEVERANCE.

In case anyone is still working on the riddle with the words, I think it is fair to note that another source lists LONELINESS instead of SOLITUDE , and DELIGHT instead of JOY.

Other discrepancies on words not so far given:

Source#1(Wiki) : GOODNESS
Source#2: GOOD

Source#1: SOFTNESS
Source #2: SENSITIVITY

+++

Source #2 doesn’t list SPRING or LUXURY at all.*

+++

  • However, because WIKI provides links with pictures of each, I think it represents a more complete list and thus SPRING and LUXURY certainly belong.

Ah!

The one that doesn’t belong is GREED. There is no Lake of Greed on the moon.

(For what it’s worth, I tried for a long time to make these words correspond to Greek gods after which moons of other planets were named. Alas, that didn’t go anywhere… But I was close, in some sense!)

Finally! Good job **Indistinguisable **.

I came up with the puzzle to go with the super moon eclipse that we were all going to watch last weekend. Alas, clouds and rain prevented that viewing.
