Are there any good balls that don't have logos stamped on them, Reborn?

Sounds like a TT ball, but the last bit throws me.


Getting colder. I'm trying to think of a hint that wont give it away. Try looking at some of my recent posts?

In one of your last posts, you have mentioned that you can't find any information about this rubber. You only have (had) 24 posts when I checked through your posts looking for answer and I did read through all of them to find the answer. I have time, you know. :lol:

When I'm used,you can be sure your opponent don't approve.

If I'm used to often, you might find it hard to find practice partners.

I will make you feel at least a level better as soon as I'm used, no practice required.

I can be used successfully against all kinds of rubbers and I can never get banned by the ITTF!

Who am I?

Think hard about this one, cause I'm, almost sure we all have used "the answer" some time.


This one is still left unanswered, or, at least, with out the correct answer. Trying to think of more hints with out giving it away. It can be used in pretty much all sports and Tennis player Björn Borg where the master when it came to using "it".


It is the head band table tennis player wore. BTW, I hate those guys.

Now, why do you hate me Tat, I've been so kind to you by giving you all these easy riddles so you could take the lead in the competition :lol: Unfortunately, it is not the correct answer to the riddle. Might just want to come up with a riddle for the head band answer, seeing how I can't play with out it :D


No, I don't hate you, you are the one who will make me a new rubber soon.

BTW, guys, I had two possibilities about this riddle, now that I didn't get the other one, would you all wait for me tomorrow so I can play again?

Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

As for the other riddles, may be it is fair to let others to play and I'll come in later to take the credit, just like someone you know who did. :wink:

Is the answer "calling a 'time-out'"?

Now, I wouldn't mind giving you another go at it straight away, but you know how hard the admin is here, he always wants us to do all the hard work before he sneaks in to take the credit for it :twisted:

I was going to give another hint for the riddle you failed, but seeing how you have already made your guess, it would be unfair to you to give it now, so I'll better wait.


I was just thinking out loud, Haggisv have never specified which time zone he meant by per day, I could always argue that I counted the Australia time zone as my basis, then I guess I can guess before Aus midnight (about 7 AM here) and then I have the whole day to guess another one. :D

And if you want you could call my

I've fixed the typo in the original post, thanks for notifying me Haggisv (it should be 'buy')


Also it isn't Innova


That would surely be Dawei IQ or Inspirit.


HAggisv can overrule but you guessed 2 rubbers (is that allowed) if it is you got it correct with Inspirit, but otherwise Saakian guessed it correctly.

Strictly you can only make one guess per day per riddle, but I'll let the writer of the riddle decide who's deserves to be the winner, as sometimes the guess of one (who's done all the hard thinking) can make the answer a 'gift' for another :wink:
