Lilith Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 ok i got it now it is actually more simple than i was making it out to be. that was the problem <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have to agree it is so easy once you figure it out, almost too easy, so easy that after you spent hours days etc... and you finally get it, you feel like a dumb ass..... i was reading some of the comment on the website and people were getting all pissed about how it said the smarter you are the longer it will take you to figure it out... well i am not sure if the statment was ment as a Sassy comment or if it had merrit to it but i think the more education or scientific mind you have the longer it will take you to because you are searching for the "logical" answer, the answer all our years of schooling has taught us to look for. Well it does not apply to this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paradox Posted March 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 it said the smarter you are the longer it will take you to figure it out... well i am not sure if the statment was ment as a Sassy comment or if it had merrit to it but i think the more education or scientific mind you have the longer it will take you to because you are searching for the "logical" answer, the answer all our years of schooling has taught us to look for. Well it does not apply to this problem. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> agreed. you want to look at the problem pictorally rather than analytically. i think the comment was meant both tongue-in-cheek but also a little seriously. something of a 'heads up', if you will. not about being smart, but about thinking outside the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubh Aingeal Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 not about being smart, but about thinking outside the box <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I would have to agree... I think this is exactly what they were trying to say. Cause the more you look for the answer within that box the longer it will take you to solve this particular puzzle.

Jarodaka Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 The answer is always zero or an even number. Apparently, I'm allowed to say that without betraying the trust of the Petal of the Roses Society. I think I would've gotten a little faster if I clicked on CHECK rather than ROLL. Heh. Time for bed? Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaneDead Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 agreed. you want to look at the problem pictorally rather than analytically yes, that is where i was having problems. i was making it all about math or something about the set up of the dice. then i was like ok i am going to stop guessing answers hit roll and check rather than guess an answer and that is how i finally got it!
