I need to know who else is going on the Riddler's Hall of Fame.

I have been going backwards through the pages, checking on all the riddles. So far, I have found two riddlers who meet the qualifications for the riddler's hall of fame, I believe!

They are Mercurial Anima -Zeph- (Riddle begins p. 83, see pg. 88 for 15+ guesses, riddle ends p. 89)
and joe-dude667 (riddle starts p. 79, riddle ends p. 81)

Anika will of course have to check me on this, and as soon as I can I will continue to go back through the thread smile

Yes, I believe you are correct. I shall update the post right away.

[.Herms.]

Nope. I'm thinking of editing the riddle to include another clue, that I thought might be too obvious at first--what does everyone think?

I may come to you as a task
On hunters’ wings.
You must succeed
For error may bring eternal darkness.
Be very careful, though your path be
Hard to follow through the haze
A heavenly orb’s earthly twin
Will help you, but it’s not enough.
One will succeed, five struggle in vain,
But only one chosen to fail.

Just wanted to update you all-I went through every page of the thread, and didn't find any more Riddler's meeting the qualifications.
So that can be a challenge for us to face in the coming riddles!
