Petals Around the Rose: Fraternity Register

Someone said it was so much easier after reading the Bill Gates article. I read the article and got very little out of it - it was only after meditating on the name and nature of the game that I suddenly clicked.

I can attest to the hypnotic power of the dice: someone posted a link to another version of this in my regular IRC channel, and within half an hour half the channel's occupants were trying to solve or had solved the puzzle.

One got it the first time he saw the dice and heard the name, and another's mother came up the stairs, read over her shoulder and solved the puzzle in six tries (after she'd been thinking about it for half an hour...)

Love the Javascript implementation, too.
