Someone sent me the Bill Gates story. It harped on the name of the game so much, I had the answer before I finished reading the story!

It's a guessing game, there's nothing more to it. Apply strategy after strategy until you find one that works, where's the skill in that? Took me about 5 minutes once I started to write the results down, easy to spot if you get the right rolls.

Filled an Excel spreadsheet with calculations, upon realising that I had no real patterns with the amount of data I had I stopped thinking mathematically and got it instantly!

Got it when i started thinking of a mathematical solution... it didnt relate to the name at all though. later found a slightly simpler one, which is probably the expected solution

Took me a while - I'm not a logical thinker and looked for mathmatical ways around it. Finally worked it out - what an achievement!
Thanks for a brilliant puzzle.

First try was right, but from the wrong reasoning. Got the right answer AND method on my second go - about... 10 seconds.
