3 of my colleagues and I sat down to solve this game. Being the first among the 4 of us to break it, I took half an hour to solve. I managed to do it with Mr Gates hint: PEDAL around the rose... That was amazing! ~ Edmund (Singapore) big grin

Tried for about an hour.... Then...

It blew my mind when I found the solution was so easy. I was starting to get really frustrated.

Solved it with 7 examples. It can be modeled as a system of linear equations in 6 variables.

smile Years of brain teasers in an advanced elementary program led to a speedy response. Common sense and logical thoughts certainly helped, too.

Hehe kind of annoyed me actually after getting it because I did basically that way before I figured it out but never realized it.
