I played with my counselor at camp. Every night we would have a group come in our hall. I was always there. I never found out the solution there but thought of all of these different mathematical ways. I did a google search which led me to this website and eventually I solved it.- "Petals around the rose"

-that was me. I got it 5 times in a row the wrong way...

I solved it while on this website, and nearly confused my grandma to death trying to teach her this game.
