Scarab got 3.

1. A shimmering field that reaches far.
Yet it has no tracks,
And is crossed without paths.

2. You tie these things,
Before you go.
And untie them,
After you stop.

3. This engulfing thing,
Is strange indeed,
The greater it grows,
The less you see.

1 was answered correctly with "Music" 2 was answered correctly with "Bubble" now I'm waiting on 3.

Scarab got it.

1. This wondrous thing, though not an herb,
Can help comfort the weak and the dying.
It can even be used to rally the troops,
Or make one start laughing or crying.

2. This sparkling globe can float on water,
and weighs not more than a feather.
Yet despite it's weight
Ten giants could never pick it up.

3. Ten men's strength,
Ten men's length,
One man can pick it up,
No man can stand it up.

That answer was already tried.  No it's not Nothing.

#2 is still wrong.

The answer is what people say is never the answer.

65 buccaneers past due?

As for the answers to my riddles.  None of them correctly answered 2.

Thaumaturge got the first, MiteWiseacreLives! got the third, but the second one has yet to be answered.

1. Our valiant leaders will keep this.
But only after they have given it.

2. What is this thing that having,
You can no longer give it away.
But lacking it, for the moment at least,
You can give it to those who must pay?

3. Whoever has it is angry,
Whoever loses it is angrier,
Whoever wins it has it no more.

For goodness sake, with campy answers like these Dracula would be quite safe.  They're all wrong.

Nope.  Think of what the rope, the leash, and the bear trap would be tied to.

Keep pounding your answers in and I'm sure someone will get it eventually.

None of the answers were right just yet, but rope is on the right track.

No, it's not Horseshoes.

2 and 3 were correct.

#1 was walnut but Coconut is close enough.

1. Although lower than a fence,
And thinner than a rail,
It can still be used to hold a horse;
Hooves, mane and tail.

2. Though not a plant, has leaves.
Though not a beast, has spine.
Though many wouldn't need this thing,
'Tis more valuable than wine.

3. In the fields a frightful thing,
Watch it and you will find,
It has a pitchfork in the front,
And a broom back behind.

No it's not a beehive.  Think of the kind of meat even a vegan would eat.

#2 was correct, but #1 is not.

Lightning?

The third one is correct.  However, the other two are wrong.

Crimson Wizard got it.

1. A box beneath a tree,
Inside some tasty meat.
Kept for a month or more,
It still tastes just as sweet.

2. Its tail is round and hollow,
Seems to get chewed a bit,
But you'll rarely see this thing,
Unless the other end is lit.

3. It doesn't live within a house.
Nor does it live without.
Most will use it when they come in,
And again when they go out.
