This puzzle pisses me off. Then again, that's what it's supposed to do, isn't it. Well I finally figured it out and now I am king of the "make you feel retarded" dice game.

I watched my son show this to his mom.
I couldn't figure it out until I was able to sit down with it on my laptop. It took me about 10 minutes.

Took me about 15 mins to get this and it wasn't untill I really thought about how the name could be significant that I got it. This is a great mind game that I was determined to get after reading Bill Gates had got it. razz (stick out tongue)

Got confused reading some comments from people who were apparently offended by the claim that "the smarter you were the more time it will take you to figure it out"... I only got it after I read that Gates had trouble solving it because he got the name of the game wrong... big grin

Got it while re-reading the line about the name being significant. What a Great Math Problem. Thanks.

I got it when reading the "Bill Gates" story linked from the puzzle page, which mentioned that "the name is significant".

Mentioning this seems like a clear spoiler to me. Would others agree that the name should never be emphasized, nor should any mention be made of "visual vs analytical" thinking when talking of the puzzle?
