There is going to be a new thread set up called "Riddle's Riddles".
Run kind of like the Trivia, each week/fortnight/month (what ever is easier) a new riddle will be posted by the Riddle Master and people are to message their answer/guess and they earn points on how correct/creative their answer is. Simple enough?
To apply for this position, you must be an active and responsible person and be willing to put alot of thought into these riddles and be very patient. It will be up to you to decide the points each riddle is worth and how many the answer is worth, and not be bias in any way.
For more details feel free to PM me or ask here, if you do decide to apply, please state your house and name.
Thank you.

Does it have to be Harry Potter related riddles? (obviously that would be preferable, but just wondering on the total scope of this)

No it doesn't have to be Harry Potter related, but they can be if you want.
They can range from being jokes like: A man walked down Fake Street, he has seven wives, who each have seven boys, who each have seven sisters, who each have seven dogs. How many people are walking down Fake Street?
or like one by moogle: I often give joy, to those who have me. Though I am cold, I'm taken when warm. I do not ever come for free, And once used, can be used no more.
What am I?
so There is the logical kinds, common sense, what ever you are best at.

Hmm... For one, Kaisei, you didn't fill out an appropriate form.
And two, I was kind of hoping for someone without a staff position already to take this one.

Name: Kaisei13 House: Slytherin Position Requested: Riddle Master Positions Already Held: Astronomy Professor Reason for Application: I am completely obsessed with riddles, puzzles and brainteasers, so I think this position would be perfect for me. I save riddles that I like on my computer so I already have a ton that I could use and I also love coming up with my own as well. Avaliablity: excellent I understand that you would like to give this job to a person that don't have one yet, but if no one else appropriate applies I would hope that you would give me a chance.

Oh, I wasn't turning you down, Kaisei, just stating that we'll be leaving it open for longer.

Hehe I know, it would be nice for more people to get active and take jobs, I'm just saying if no one else wants it. I would have a blast doing it .

Well so far you fit the job perfectly; but as Elle said, it would probably be better to keep it open for a while to see if someone else would be able to fill it.

That was a bad application, but here's the real deal
Name: Aigee Zabini (ekansslyth11) House: Slytherin Position Requested: Riddle Master Positions Already Held: None (First year) Reason for Application: One reason is that, I am very responsible and I like to make riddles and my own puzzles. Moreover, I want this position because I feel that I'm not giving that much house and school spirit. This position would be a perfect opportunity for me to apply all the skills that i have in writing riddles. Most of all, I want to help out my school especially with activities that help expand your mind or activities that tests your mind. Avaliablity: excellent
I hope I get the job, thank you.

Name: Molly Brotherton (wiltingroses08) House: Ravenclaw Position Requested: Riddle Master Positions Already Held: Ravenclaw Seeker Reason for Application: I love figuring out puzzles, and figuring out new answers to old puzzles. I'm very good at thinking the riddles through, so I would be able to see where the person got their answer from, and also be able to tell them why/why not it's correct. Avaliablity: good

Indeed, your avaliablity has been god, I've noticed your activeness. Hmm... Give me your background in creating riddles. So far you've just told me that you would be good at solving them.
