To start my Thread I shall tell you a story:
I once visited a realm that started with a Z,
whereupon I was inspired by someone I did see --
a rhyming maker of mischief, (why, oh my)!
But so inspired was I,
by his rhymes and limericks
and the games that he played,
I thought to myself
"If I could do that too, then I'd have it made!"
Then another thought struck me
just a mere moment later:
that if I, unlike he,
did do this task but pleasantly
then I'd be the one
who did much better.
And so you see, my friends,
this is where my tale
must come to an end;
for I've come to stay maybe a week,
here on your fair isle,
just hoping to help you
enjoy your time for awhile.

Hi, it's April Fool here again! The first person to correctly guess my middle name will receive 100g from me. ^^
(To make a guess, just post your answer inside spoiler tags, okay? Thanks! )
Here is your clue:
SPOILERX
I love to wear bright colors
and to fool around.
I do so wish I had silver bells
to wear upon a mock crown.
If you ever see me dancing as if I don't know how,
perhaps even in front of a crowd,
know then that this is my pleasure:
making people laugh out long and loud.
I figured out part of the fist one... but I don't understand how to get the second digit with the same letters. I see a bit of a pattern with the answers though.

Oh me, oh my,
How late am I!
Much later than the
White Rabbit ever was,
I'm sure!
I do apologize,
dear Menewshans -
I fear I was so sidetracked,
by all the sightseeing and window shopping,
I only dashed back for a few seconds
to pay a zombie potatoe,
just that one time!
But here I am,
and to tell the truth,
@SuperZombiePotatoe was correct
in guessing for that game:
for, you see,
April Jester Fool is my name!
As for the other game,
not all of you guessed all the answers correctly,
but fear not, my friendly players -
you're allowed to guess more than once!
(Just don't forget the spoiler tags!)
And last, but not least,
for another raffle entry
I have added a fun little riddle
to your number puzzles!
