Petals Around the Rose: Fraternity Register

nice one...

good puzzle

Hi this puzzle took me 30 minutes to work out i think it is a great brain workout!

It took me so long, i was cursing and so frustrated, on like the 2nd night of trying to work it out i went and got a drink wondering why the word ****** was so important, and finally clicked while looking at the pattern on the placemats lol. I couldnt beleive it was so simple.. i was quite anoyed with myself for not thinking outside the square more.

i love this game

Hm. That took way too much time on my part. Calculating formulas, applying equations... If i would've read these, i would've known that a 12 year old got it. That should of tipped me off. i sould have written the answers down as i went. Once i started that it was a breeze.
Well, it was a good time-kill, just under 3 hours...haha

a friend told me that smarter people take longer to figure it out. i was actually rather angry it took me so long to figure it out lol. I gave up at the start, watched a few anime episodes...came back to it and solved it. I couldn't help thinking...was it really that easy???? but i was glad i did stick at it...and have now shared it with friends of mine!!!! its awesome!

It took me about 3 days to figure it out when my teacher introduced it to us. A lot of my classmates cheated and looked it up on the web but I was a bit determined to get it on my own. Despite how quickly they came up with the answers (it was a bit of a hint but I didn't pay much mind until I started getting frustrated) I kept trying a bunch of formulas based on the name of the game. By the second day (we played about a half hour each day, he threw about 20 rolls and we didn't get much time to absorb the info, and barely enough time to write down the numbers and the answers) anyways... I'd finally started trying to re-arrange the pipits. I had been trying to fit them around the center pipit instead though, and it wasn't until the 3rd day, 70th roll or something of the like, that it just came to me. I originally tallied wrong though, thinking it was for any center pipit die. Then I made a simple adjustment after a couple incorrect guesses and had it...
Nevertheless very intriguing. I just wish my teacher let us examine the die a bit longer on each throw, I might have been able to figure it out sooner.

I was introduced to this puzzle about a year ago, tried to figure it out for about 15 minutes, got tired of it and stopped. Then for some reason the game popped into my mind so I found it and figured it out by my 10th guess.

wahoo i am 12 and after three long days of trying to figure it out i have succeded. i could kick myself sometimes . my friends math teacher miss healy (grace academy) is so proud lol
