I tried over 70 rolls without the slightest clue as to what was going on. I gave it a break, read the entire page again 3 times searching for a hint...and got it within 10 rolls. Never loose sight of the name of the game or else you'll be doomed to failure.

Man, I must be some kind of bonehead! I came up with an algorithm (mental, not coded) that solved it, after about an hour of studying the examples in the article, and completely ignoring the name. It required a bunch of addition and subtraction (for those reading this who don't know the answer yet, my approach is killing an ant with a nuke). Then, when I tied the name back in, it became pretty apparent how people could get it so fast.

I thought this was a really stupid game. It took me absolutely ages to work this out, as well as many sleepless nights. Now I've worked it out and though about it I know realise how simple it is, and it is possible to shout out the answer in just a couple of seconds.

A little confusing at first as to what I was supposed to be doing and guessing. Once I figured out how to play I got it right away, the name of the puzzle really helps a little too much.smile

This was an interesting game. It took two tries and I haven't gotten another wrong since.

Cheers!
