It was the third day and Moredred arrived much later seeming to wish to prolong the feeling he got and the dread the toys got from his first victory even if the risk had been low.
He appeared much higher than on previous occasions and did a few uncharacteristic loops in the air before landing in a sit a top a podium that had replaced the previous one overnight.
"Greetings, I see due to yesterdays fun activities some of you are rather injured, I hope you'll get over it, actually I am sure you will"
Moredred announced with a smile before clapping his hands three times each clap making a cup rise from the dark slab below.
first on the left came a gold cup that shone brightly in the morning light, in the middle a lead cup came next that seemed sort of dingy followed on the right by a silver cup that shone but not as much as the gold one.
"These right here were gifted to me as a set I usually don't allow people to play with them but I am in a good mood because of yesterdays events so be grateful."
Moredread smiled before swinging himself back disappearing behind the podium a curt chuckle could be heard all around before it abruptly stopped.
Riddle 3:Vessels three appear before thee, gold, silver and lead, will you be greedy and take it easy or will you be wise like those I despise, the answer is hard but please make a bet while being pure and just and don't get upset. 
Pm me the risk & reward package you want either small or big details are in sign-ups risk & reward current bid status: HighNB: inactivity angers Moredred cause he gets bored so he will kill a heart every inactive game. activity counts as posting in game with an attempt at the riddle. it can be a bad attempt.

Gold and silver are shiny... but lead is poisonous.
Gold is far too heavy. So I'll settle with silver.

"Wait just a minute!"
"Moredred! Nobody voted for the frowning cup at all yesterday! That means the chooser's override must have been used! Why is it showing that nobody is missing their diamond heart?"
"The toy who was the chooser yesterday must have been tainted, or else they wouldn't have picked that one! So, tell us..."
"Who is missing their diamond heart?"

Okay, the last was a false before the teleportation was taken into effect, so this is probably true... I think. Moredred is advising us to be pure and just, which lingers from the answer of greed; therefore, it is unlikely the gold cup as it is the one that ensues greed from one's heart, although the same can be said for silver. I did some research just a moment ago upon reading the riddle and the choices, and the silver cup is clearly a physical object that can keep form, correct? Usually, the more pure silver is, the less likely it can actually produce a form, so our silver cup must be infused with another metal that one most occasions, is copper, so our silvery object is no longer a pure object either. As for gold... it is said to be often diluted by water and other liquids, and the fact remains that not all gold is pure. Lead on the other hand, can be turned into a solid object and stay in its mold when pure, as some bullets have been made with pure lead. So right... lead for me, then. Riku, I believe Moredred already spoke directly to you concerning the matter, but the chooser does not need to override the votes, since the chooser can only override the risks and rewards. Also, there is the possiblity that the chooser had not votes, but still PMed Moredred the cup they desired to unfold, but that choice may have been made before the cup change, which possibly means that the chooser did pick the correct cup to start with, but then this was thrown off by the teleportation of the ball. |

Lead is the HARDEST answer and can be quite pure. He also said not to be greedy (not gold or silver).

Ah yes, and before I forget... I'll be taking a high risk and reward this time.

"...I am so lost."
"Alright, alright. I think I got it now. But let me take a look at the puzzle..."
"Now, the thing is, he said that if you are greedy, you are taking it easy. But if you are wise, you are like those he despises."
"Now, with this, I have to say that gold is the correct answer. After all, he despises us untainted toys most of all, correct? And, the sign of being untainted... It's a heart of gold."
"By being wise, I'm guessing that means that the cup in question has the ball. So, I'm going for the gold."

Actually, now that I think about it, gold makes more sense.

Well... to what Riku said, which was actually a great perspective onto the riddle. I think the only thing I desired to comment on was that... good is often described by Heart Gold, but Soul Silver is also a factor to innocence and the side of light. (referrence from Pokemon to those who did not realize at the first mention... now all we need is a Lead title... Spirit Lead.) In that case, you describe it as, it would appear true. A heart of gold is someone unwilling to break a bond of trust and are in most, if not all cases, courageous. While I believe a soul of silver would refer to one who is honest and endearing... I think I heard this somewhere within the game, but it's so unlikely that Moredred would use that connection. The only fault I see with that is the first part of the riddle: "gold, silver and lead, will you be greedy" One does not usually show greed towards lead at the very least, which would go in contrast with the fact that those of greed will want the gold, and even if we are talking about an intangible factor; greed is the essence of want, and who says that those of greed will not also wish for a heart of gold. Either way, for now, I will take my chances away from lead, but I will place it in silver. Also... my heart's gone... how did that happ- oh wait, what happened last round... right, right.  |
