::Sigh:: Yeah, I finally got this about 20 mind-numbing, frustrating minutes after my girlfriend showed it to me. Weeeee.... That was fun!

Took about an hour of thinking about it after my wife showed me, then 15 minutes to write a program to do it and then a few minutes to reduce it to a single line equation.
I think the issue isn't that 'smarter' poeple take longer, but that more 'analytical' people take longer. I spent the most of the first hour spinning thorugh algorithms, but then thought about the name and went looking for flowers! Once I stopped thinking too much, the answer popped right up.

Got it pretty quickly, my brother as well, but my father is still puzzling over it.

It took me about two and a half hours (and scores of rolls) to figure out the mathematical solution, then another few dozen rolls to figure out the "easy" way.
