It took me a while, but I was trying to read too much into it!

It took me only about 5 minutes before I found out that how it goes, without even trying it. As they say: what's in a name....

Ya know  , it's so much simpler than I was led on to believe... maybe it's a metaphor, maybe it means some things in life that look really complicated are actually hit-yourself-in-the-head-for-not-figuring-out-sooner, it's-right-in-front-of-your-face simple...as long as you know what the trick is  that's probably the hard part. [I'll give you a hint, the name of the game is Petals Around the Rose!  ]
 Hehe... then again, maybe not~!  The metaphor thing I mean, not the Petals Around the Rose hint thing, that's real!
 To all my fellow Fraternity of Petals Around the Rose-ers!  Congrats! Live well and stand tall knowing you've solved this puzzle!

Took me 11 rolls (all wrong), but then it hit me... Love the simplicity in the face of how hard I tried to make it!

I came across a "Petals around the Rose" game a few months ago, figured it out...and promptly forgot the answer. Now that I've done it again, I shan't soon forget

Nikker, thanks for sending the link - tried five or six throws with no luck, then read the article and realised the answer was staring me in the face

Took me less time than Bill Gates... there's something satisfying in that, despite the fact that he has an obscene amount of money
