Petals Around the Rose: Fraternity Register

Best time to solve is first thing in a AM (or the crack of noon) when you aren't quite awake. It took me about 2 - 3 minutes.

solved in 2 minutes

Spent the majority of the morning - going from to to finally

Three minutes. Honest.

Takin' a bow

heehee

I can't believe how easy it was when you finally figure it out! But that was fun.

I can't believe how easy it was once you got it. Lol

Talk about The Answer is in the name duhhhh

I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure this out

Any more puzzles like this on the net????

Finally! After seeing this at work months and months ago, giving up and now taking another look at it tonight I have it. Read the Bill Gates article, some of the comments here and took on board that it has a visual basis. Went to another site (http://www.freeworldgroup.com/games/roses/) featuring this game and the different dice helped me see the solution.

argghhh!!! at first i thought the colors had something to do with it, and then i wrote the patterns down and thought maybe having pairs or triples were a factor.. frustrated , i looked at another site until i came across one which had no frills and colors and used quite a different set of terminology for the roll, and that's when i got it.. sheesh!!! talk about always thinking in complicated ways...

Cool! Got it right on the 5th set.

They say the smarter you are, the longer it'll take you to get it. Well either i'm so dumb or I just haven't gotten adulthood to get the better of me yet. Four minutes, tops.
