Doodling helps...

Interesting game, but the name totally gives it away. Thinking about the name made me tackle the problem from a semantic/linguistic standpoint rather than a mathmatical one, and that plus the examples in the Gates article were enough to tell me the entire thing.
I have some friends I have to try this on. They will love it.

Excellent puzzle....still strikes me as a bit necromantic, but I got 30 in a row after about the 7th one, so I guess I've got it right...

Figured it our after the first roll and befroe my firt guess and then confirmed it through 20 rolls. It's interesting to see how different mind work and percieve things.

Ahh, finally got it. Took me long enough. I came really close to the solution early on, but got distracted by certain aspects of this online version that do not apply to the game.
Great fun.

I, too, was distracted by the colors.

The colors are a smart diversion. Definitely going to pass this around.

The different colors were pretty, but sneaky. Hmph. Glad to have figured it out for myself, though, even if it took a few minutes to do so.
