Wait wtf.. I dont get it. 10 minutes randomly clicking and guessing numbers is enough.

I thought I had an idea and used it to get two straight guesses right... then it didn't work anymore.

I found the Bill Gates story linked on that site more intriguing.

They say you aren't supposed to do what your initution tells you to do right, which I guess you guys are trying to do math?

Yeah, but math HAS to do something. It's numbers.

I take it the different dice colors don't mean anything, obviously.

How much math you need is determined by how much you really need to use it...

that's it...no more discussion from me :-x

How are you supposed to know when you've won the game? When you figure out it's pattern or something? I'm just curious there, as the page doesn't really explain it

I've been playing the game for about 10 minutes now, have 13 correct guesses out of 50 rolls, and my longest run without getting an answer wrong is 3 turns That's decent for my first time playing it, I guess I still don't see any pattern to it though A couple times I've thought of guessing one number, then changed my guess to something I thought it would tell me was right, and it was, although that's about as much as I've done in the way of figuring it out.

ack...we'll my definition of winning the game is to understand how to get the right answer every time.

come to think of this, I think this should be in the Games and Puzzles section, but at the same time, this is not really your ordinary puzzle...

You "win" when you figure out the pattern, yes. The thing about this game is that, proportedly, the longer it takes you to figure out, the more intellegent you are. (That is, stupid people realise it right away, but smart people try to think it out too much and it takes them longer). Someone posted this on my forums a number of months ago... I don't remember how long it took me to figure it out, but it was a good while (a couple days, I think).

I figured it out in two tosses.

Which I guess makes me one of the dumbest people alive.

Yeah, I've seen this before as well (Which was when I figured it out in two tosses, though I may have read the story first).

10/50, Run: 3. I don't get it exactly but I think I have an idea. Just not sure of the whole alogrithm.

Explains that even with my high IQ and my ability to figure out logic puzzles easily... I really can't figure how this thing works.

But I don't give up easily, and well. I know for sure that the colours have nothing to do with the answer at least... and sometimes I can actually figure out a answer by using math but it dosen't always work...

Well, it took bill gates 90 minutes to figure it out. I just working in much less time.

Haha, I tried searching for every possible mathematical pattern I could find, and every time I thought I had something, I got quite mad when they didn't work out. So, when the solution to "Petals Around The Rose" finally dawned on me, I had to laugh, since it was so obvious, so simple, yet something so hard to think of.

I figured it out in like 30 min.

Quite easy when you listen to the clues really.

...I finally figured it out. It's very simple after all. XD

You need to be creative to find the trick. Even seven years old should be able to figure this out. And they may even have easier time to figure it out than total grownups.

At least it just needed a second try for me severeal hours later, I figured it out after 30 seconds. XD
