Petals Around the Rose: Fraternity Register

Cool game - took about a dozen goes to solve. First assumption turned out to be correct but thought I'd better have a shot at maths first. Lesson learned - always test your intuition first, it's often on the right track

Easy puzzle.

10 minutes... not bad.

After 3 days of trying, I finally figured it out. One has to definitely think outside the box and between the lines to come up with the answer. But the answer is so simple that its practically staring at you in the face from those 5 rolling dice!

After I tried 30 minutes, I read Bill Gates plays Petals Around the Roses. I still didn't know the answer when I read once. Then second time I read slowly, finally I got the answer from the conversation !

I thought I was going to kill myself after the first 10 minutes of trying it. Out of deseration, I even Goolgled the answer, but no sites put it up, so I just kept trying. Anbout 5 minutes later, I figured it out and almost crapped meself.

The only way to truly solve this puzzle is to look at the source code. Even then there is the possibility that the machine (be it virtual or real) may make a "mistake".

Anyone who says that they have got it right after the first roll obviously does not understand much about proof.

On one level you can get the answer but is this answer truly correct? What proof do you have that this answer always works?

I got it within the first ten times that I tried it -- within one minute.

My father got it THE FIRST TIME he tried it -- and got every single one correct.

For a long time now I've been really into games like this, to see how long it takes for me to figure it out. I think that might be why it was so easy for me -- because I'm used to thinking on those wavelengths.

I hope it doesn't mean I can't think on NORMAL wavelengths.

As with every other thinking and deduction and logic problem that I introduce to others, I swear I will never just give the answer away. I will, however, continue bugging the others about it to continue trying it until they finally do figure it out.

Have fun.

Fun -- took a few minutes, but I got it!

i have to admit it took me longer working out what i was being asked to work out, but i have seen puzzles like this before and i got it pretty quick!
