RIDDLE -

You see a boat filled with people.
It has not sunk, but when you look again you don't see a single person on the boat.

Why?
because you're pished as a fart and along with several class A drugs synchronized swimming in your intestines , you seein all sorts?

In words I am crafted, a puzzle from me,
with clues and twists it's a challenge you see.
I'll make you ponder, your mind will engage,
a mystery to solve on this forum page.
What am I, is your brainteaser quest?
Can you answer my question and pass the test?

lol Altair both posted at the same time

Yeah 47.4%, but can you explain for the popcorn-munching viewers of this thread why the odds aren't 50%?..;)

PS- I do quite well at online roulette just for fun (no cash involved) and can usually just keep my head above water (the break-even line), but for all I know the wheel is rigged to give me and other players a feelgood boost..:)
Same with online 'ESP tests', I sometimes score pretty good but again we don't know if the tests are rigged in our favour.
He's one test result of mine under my screenname Waymarker in a series of card-guessing rounds-

Not a riddle-
In roulette, if you place a chip on red or black,, what are the chances of your colour coming up?
It depends on whether it is European Roulette or American Roulette as the American tables have 00 and 0 whereas the european tables just have one single 0
Also in the bookmakers now to make up for the stake being reduced drastically from a £100 limit to a £2 one they have introduced THREE zeros:0 00 and 000
So I guess the question has multiple answers depending on where you are playing...
"The odds of hitting red or black in American roulette are 47.4%. This rises slightly in European roulette, to 48.6%." - Google
The odds in Bookmakers on the new triple zero roulette games goes down to 46.15%...

The word I believe that does not belong is 'Carrot' because if you remove the first and last letter of all the others it makes another word...

I would agree you are correct, but I has been pointed out to me that riddles may have more that one answer. Happy to listen to other theories .

NOT really a riddle, more of a puzzle, but hey ho :p

The "X" in each word represents a number of missing letters. Can you figure out the missing letters to reveal each word.

W X Y
PO X TATE
NE X RK
CA X
H X Y

In the forum, a puzzle played with dare
to gain some favour you chose to share.
those lips pressed tight, typed words bestowed
but beneath the surface a true motive shows.
yet, in your posting success may amass
for you're very skilled in the art of kissing ass.
