Petals Around the Rose: Fraternity Register

It took me like a week to figure the petals around the rose game out, but once i did i was inspired to write a PHP version and then a JavaScript version because the PHP version was slow.
If you want you can find my versions at http://meep.frandt.com/rose/

zzzz........

Great puzzle After I got the solution, it made me feel like an idiot

Indeed, a great puzzle. To begin with, there was no clue at all. Then the name of the game itself struck.

Got it in four. It's a little like a riddle that children get first and adults struggle over because we think too hard. The riddle for those interested is "What do rich people want, poor people have, if you eat it you die, and it's greater than God."
As stated children usually get it quickly...adults can struggle for ages.

Wonderful game.

In Tribute to the late Richard Ingham. Two Rolls. Concentrated on the name

Got it on the first try!!! Just really thought about the name of the game and how i could apply it to the dice themselves, was pretty obvious really!!

finalleeeee!!
oh but i still dunno the significance of the name. cd someone pls explain?
note to ppl who still havent got it: please dont think complicated. IT'S NOT
i know what took me so long after a lifetime of complex series just couldnt think simple. could mail the list of throws and answers to anyone needing it cos its utterly useless

ps: though i hate the fact of having taken so long the line saying "the smarter you are, the harder it is." does make one feel good

i took about an hour but i got it...i struggled with it but in the end let logic go out the window and found the pattern.
