Slight changes to #1 and small addition to #2.
And here's a hint.
The big brown question is what you need to answer.

You're drunk, you dont make any sense bud, we'll just go home now, ok?

WHAT'S... COME ON?!! Quit drinking for now, we'll head out now and have a walk, right?
One of these? They don't really seem to be questions, they're more statements... And why does "COME ON?!!" have a question mark...
Quote
Once you have all the solutions, make sure this returns true:
Code:
private bool IsOrderRight(char[] second)
{
if (second.ToString() == "mates")
return true;
else
return false;
}
I'm thinking this is trying to say that taking the second letter from each riddle's solution (username, not key), spells out "mates"
Not confirming anything, but that's some progress, for sure.
One of the questions you quoted looks bigger than the other, IMHO.

I wish I was smart enough for this.

This set is over, the loot has been claimed!
Solutions will be published this weekend.
Thanks to all treasure hunters.
Let's go with another set of riddles!
For memory, first edition was cracked here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/over-riddle-game-solve-it-and-take-the-loot-270332
Principle is still the same, solution is composed of a list of 5 usernames, with the exact same case as registered here.
Concat those usernames, remove all spaces, and use it as a passphrase on brainwallet to get the private key of:
As last time, feel free to help the loot grow by sending coins to this address (currently
).
!!!!! A special prize for the winner has been kindly offered by Eric from Cubic Dissection !!!!!!
Just send a PM to both me and Eric, signed using the loot private key to claim this prize!
Important reminder
When claiming the loot, sweep the coins using mt.gox feature, or import the private key to a disposable, fresh wallet, to make sure QT won't use it as a change address in your main wallet.
DO NOT keep that address once you cleared the unspent output, as its private key will be public knowledge.
Rules
Each riddle gives:
You may try to crack a riddle without the key obtained from the previous one, but... That won't be easy.
Obviously, the first riddle does not require a key.
Since keys are easier to find than solutions, you might still progress without completely solving the previous riddle.
Once you have all the solutions, make sure this returns true:
Hopefully, no critical typo this time.
If something looks oddly written, it's probably because I wanted it that way.
Editions
EDIT 1 : Slight modifications to #1 and a small addition to #2.
EDIT 2 : Edited the loot, adding both the anonymous donation, and Eric's gift. Thanks guys!
EDIT 3 : Fixed a breaking issue in getting 1st key, sorry!
EDIT 4 : Fixed a fix that broke the 1st key
EDIT 5 : Loot amount is now dynamic, thanks to Sammey
EDIT 6 : Don't try and find the 4th key unless you are 18 years old at least, I'll come back with an alternative way by tomorrow.
EDIT 7 : Added a softer way to get the 4th key.
Riddles
#1
This happens in a shady pub, somewhere in the future.
Two guys are discussing, both of which hold one part of the solution.
One also holds the "ke (an)y ______".
#2
Oooh, a key!
Replace that unique one with the mark Mary Read left on the map.
Consider the mark as a mirror, and fix the reflection.
Ooooh, exciting!
Now, open the book.
The 1883 one.
No, not Zarathustra... You know, the one about... The mirror thing...
Haha. Funny shit. Wait. How do you pronounce that?
Hey, don't forget the key!
Think she hid it in the inn, Arrrrrr!
Just keep the number.
#3
s When the frigate lands like poetry, strictly focus on the key.
: Space does not matter. Ignore it.
/ Stuff all that remain in the shaker(*), then enjoy your meal.
/ He's hiding somewhere around... Thinkout of in the box. That /index/ isn't helping.
(*)This guy holds the next key. And key has a tail!(**)
(**)For a tail-less confirmation, see riddle #2
#4
Ewww. Are you really going to swallow that key?
Looks pointy and dangerous to me...
Yuck. Cheers, I guess.
Let's play hangman with that fruit!
_ 5 1 2 4 _ _ _
Wow,
this
is
S....ICK!
Want the next key?
This is for grownups only! I'll come up with an alternative way by tomorrow for younger people, sorry.
Look for the previous one on the dictionary holding Inaba definition.
5th definition.
Just keep the timestamp. Not the timestamp. (*)
(*)For a dizzy confirmation, see riddle #2
This is for solid kids, same result, softer way.
Look for the fruit on the dictionary holding Inaba definition.
(01) 00-04-72-80-WHY
Just keep that as the timestamp.
#5
Yaaawn. What time is it?
*looks around*
Whatever. Carpe diem.
Come on, shawshankinmate37927, try to chew on this one.
Clock says it's "bcef".
