Took me a day and a half, but time well spent. For me, the name of the game didn't help at all thumbs down , considering a rose is made of petals and petals maketh the rose... and round and round it goes spin

I was trying not to solve it, and unfortunately, the Bill Gates article made it too easy. 4 minutes max.

After typing the eleventh roll into Excel, I got bored and had a go at solving it.

Easy when you know how.

Bleh... that was quite a bit easier than I thought!

Got it in 3 rolls...

Maybe I'm just too literal a guy... ;)

It took me 5 minutes to get to the solution. It's very nice and it seems that you can do it if you are able to think different!

Well, it took me a full sunday afternoon in which I was supposed to do my homework... I'd guess about three to three-and-a-half hours of constant puzzling, when you add the lunchbreaks and toilet visits and neccesary distraction it was about 5 hours. But I got it!! big grin and I'm soooo gonna pester people around with this cool

Aha! Tried for 15 minutes then drank a bottle of wine and went to bed. When I woke up the first thought I had was - the solution!
