The discussion revolves around a riddle contest where participants post logic problems and riddles, taking turns to answer and create new ones. The initial riddle involves a murder disguised as a suicide, which participants quickly solve by noting that the tape recorder could not have been rewound if the victim had indeed committed suicide. Various other riddles follow, including brain teasers about a man using stairs instead of an elevator, twins with confusing birth certificates, and a sequence puzzle. Participants engage in lively exchanges, sharing answers and explanations while also debating the format of the thread, with some suggesting that individual riddles should have separate threads for better organization. The conversation highlights the enjoyment of logic puzzles and the social interaction they foster, despite some concerns about the structure of the thread.

I'm with you all the way on this. You were not the target of my sarcasm, this thread was. But feeling that way, why are you posting riddles on a thread that has these rules when nothing prevents you, and everything encourages you to start your own thread with no rules? This is indeed a riddle.
