When I read about this game it reminded me of a similar game I used to play. The idea was to throw 5 dices and discover how many 'holes', 'seals' and 'polarbears' there are. A clue was to say that seals were always underneath the holes and polarbears were around the holes. Quite the same as this Petals around the rose game, so I solved it immediately.

About 10 minutes, and then I got it. To me it was essential to see the old throws. I would probably have needed pen and paper if I had been shown this with real dice. My memory isn't like Bill Gates'...

Fantastic game, can't wait to watch he other half squirm over it later.
Took about 12 rolls to get it, but only after looking at and thinking about the name.

A briliant brain teaser... I worked on it for 6 hours  Then I finally got it  The game was introduced to me by a friend. Great game... The name is significant

Got it! The game was e-mailed to me at work. I messed with it for 15 mins but that was it. I thought about the name of the game for the rest of the day. When I got on the PC tonight it took about 10 mins to put all the pieces together. This was a lot of fun and I will pass it on to my friends.

 Nice game. I found the game by reading the dutch magazine "Kijk". It took me about 30 minutes to solve it.
The Bill Gates story on this website helped me to solve the problem.
Good luck

I got it  it took me about 40 minutes.
I first cracked it when the result is 0 and then it was 10 minutes of trying
I don't really get the name. Maybe because I am not native english speaking

oke I get the name. My solution was correct but just to difficult. after reading a story of a math teacher who tried this with her student I got the simple solution
