    Ok, 50 credits for the first person who gets this right. I'm feeling generous today, so there will be more puzzles after this one. I'll probably end up doing 10 or so.... Time for the first puzzle...

    What row of numbers comes next in this series?

    1
    11
    21
    1211
    111221
    312211
    13112221


    **EDIT** Please explain how you came up with your answer....

    Good job! Now, I'll explain the solution.

    1
    11
    21
    1211
    111221
    312211
    13112221

    Each row of numbers explains the contents of the row above it... For example, the second row is 11, describing the conent of the first row of one number 1. The third row says that there are 2 number ones in the row above it and so on. The last column would desribe the one preceeding it....

    Credits sent to CloudSSJ... Good job!

    Next Question!!!

    I have many feathers to help me fly. I have a body and head, but I'm not alive. It is your strength which determines how far I go. You can hold me in your hand, but I'm never thrown. What am I?

    An arrow

    an arrow has feathers, and a body, but is not a living thing, when you use the arrow you must be strenght the get the arrow to go far, and you can't throw it!
