Ah, cross-brain puzzles that make you glad that you have studied engineering and computer science; Hilbert spaces make this problem trivial! I should take this around different faculties at the uni and see how much faster artsies solve it.

Thank you for the site...

Took about 15 minutes of solid math, and one minute of actually thinking.

After trying in vain to discover some mathematical formula I reread the introduction, and noticed "The name of the game is important.". After staring a bit at a 5 I got it smile

I got this fairly quickly. Just from the intro paragraph I presumed it was going to be a problem where you have to notice something other than just the numbers on the die. First I assumed colour, but then I thought about the name of the game. I had it in < 5 rolls.

Interesting, but very simple. Took 2 rolls, after seeing what the first answer was it was obvious.

Thanks

seeing is believing 8-)

I read the article, and saw it after the 5th or 6th roll.

However, if I had just guessed zero each time, I'd have won the first 5 or 6 times 8-) 8-)
