The samples in the article gave me enough to work on. Good puzzle.

Flailed around for a bit, then reread the intro and the light bulb went on.

Figured it out by roll ten, but just avoided going off on some terribly futile tangents.

Got it after about a dozen tries, but I am not a math person.

nice one. But the clue on the Gates page gives it away. Not sure how long it would've taken without that

Figured it out from the Bill Gates article as the javascript wasn't working in Firefox. Speaking of javascript....

Got it in 5.
Wouldn't work in firefox 1.0, but was fine in IE.

Thanks for the page, LRB! This'll give me something else to stump my freinds with.
As others said, this isn't working in Firefox browser. So I skipped to the B.Gates article, and figured it out from there (in 3-4 example rolls.) Pasted the game addy into IE, worked fine.
I'll not divulge the secret! Thanks again.

Took hours. Left the machine, came back, saw the dice, suddenly it was clear!
