I got it pretty much instantly.

I guess some people's brains are just wired right for this particular puzzle.

I decided first to read about Bill Gates and his experience with the puzzle. I figured it out just from reading that, and never got to play the game! The real solution was the first thing I had thought of, and I couldn't believe that that was the solution! But I think it's a great brain teaser anyway and I'll try it on some others.

Worked with Firefox for me. Fun, I'll have to dig out some dice and mess with co-workers.

I really liked this puzzle. Thanks for the entertaining site!

Btw, now that I've solved the puzzle I expect my fraternity secret-decoder ring to be arriving in the mail any day now!

I figured the puzzle out while reading the article about Bill Gates- now if I could only figure out why the applet doesn't work in my browser, I would be a true potentate!

the more you think about it the farther away from the answer you end up

read about Bill Gates encounter with PATR here but had to find another java applet that worked with my Mac OSX Mozilla:

it took around 20 minutes of a lunch break for it to reveal itself but once you get it it seems ridiculously simple...
cool

It took me a couple of rolls, but I got it. Can't wait to stump my friends.
