Cody Ott is an expert riddler. He will put riddles on this page. The first person to answer the riddle correctly gets a Jolly Rancher. Don't cheat. I can tell what time entries are posted. Not graded. Just for fun.

*Important* I will now be doing a three strikes system, everytime I get on and see a new incorrect answer, I will give a hint. You will get three hints, then I will give the answer. Keep doing your best.
