YES! Tried it all night yesterday. Showed it to my girlfriend and she solved it yesterday which kept me going. Feels good to have done it and now i'll go out, buy some dice and torment other people with it. Just don't get that with "the name is important.."

It took me about 2 hours total, in 2 nights. I have a very long list of dice numbers with answers from trying to brute-force it. It was only when I stopped to make a good cup of coffee that I got it.
When solving a problem, never forget to make coffee. This important step cannot be omitted.

I did it! I was getting sick of hearing that two-bit hack Bill Gates could do it, but I finally figured it out. And in less time mind you.
But I gotta say, the online version always has the five die in a row, which I'm sure gets people thinking up algorithms of a spatial nature. Even the dice coloring confused me at first. Best way to do it is like it would've been in real life -- no rows but just jumbled up, and all dice of the same color.
I also thought it was some sort of word play, "Petals around the *ROWS*", since all 5 die in a row.
So do I get some sort of ritual ceremony? Maybe a virgin sacrifice or something?

I don't want to toot my own horn but, I figured it out on my first look at it, and in about 20 secs.  And btw I LOVED IT.. Definetely makes you think outside the box.
