(F)Riddle Friday #1

September 11, 2020 Community Life Competitions

Welcome back to another semester of riddles and townhouse tokens, UHPers! We’ll be releasing a riddle every Friday, and awarding a townhouse token for  the first “correct” answer (i.e. the one we’re looking for) and one for the most creative incorrect answer. You can answer in the comments below.

Regardless of where you submit it, you must do so by 3PM EST the following Thursday. Excited to see your responses!

THIS WEEK’S RIDDLE IS:

“I am the backwards miner
I remove what few will buy
Putting silver and gold
Where holes used to be.”

      Oops sorry! I didn’t refresh the page so I couldn’t see Annabel’s response before mine. Can I change my answer to a person that does ear piercings?

        You can answer multiple times, so no worries whatsoever!
