    Woah, sorry for not checking this sooner. Yes, waterfall is correct. 29 bullets to Strelok. Good guesses, the rest of you!
    This next one is quite tough. :evil:

    Riddle #16: I am a window, I am a lamp, I am clouded, I am shining, and I am coloured; set in white, I fill with water and overflow. I say much, but I have no words. What am I?

    No to both. Body language was the closest...

    Damn, Strelok's on a roll! 29 bullets to you, good sir.

    Riddle #17:

    Two spies want to get in an enemy's military base.In order to get in they have to give the correct countersign to the guard at the gate after he gives them the sign. So they wait hidden nearby the gate so that they will overhear the countersign from another soldier.

    One soldier comes and the guard gives the sign: "6". The soldier answers "3". The guard lets him pass. Another soldier comes.The guard says "12" and the soldier gives the answer "6". The guard lets him pass. So, the first spy goes at the gate and the guard asks says "10". The spy, sure that he knew the answer as he was, says "5". Immediately, the guard shoots him dead.

    Then the other spy, who saw that the other spy was killed when he gave the countersign, had now understood what the right answer would be, whatever the guard's sign was.So, he walks to the gate and the guard says "8".The spy gives the correct answer and the guard lets him in. What was the answer that the spy gave?

    Okay, one of you got it right, but now, I want the explanation for why you chose that number. :)
     
  16. The answer to the last one is five.

    I assume the riddle is about a military habit of using a clock face for directions.

    The answer is supposed to be pi or pi/2 (in that order) counter clockwise.

    Wow! That is an incredible answer, but unfortunately, not the right one in this case. But your knowledge of the military habits deserves 10 bullets!
     
  18. Just to clarify which one is wrong: The answer or the explanation of it?

    The explanation is definitely incorrect. I'm leaving the correct number ambiguous at this time. You can be sure it is 4, 5, or 6. This riddle doesn't require outside-knowledge like military habits, though, so don't strain your minds. It's all in there...

    6 was in the last 2 passwords so I (tried) put two and two together.
