petals around the rose

[mirieth]

aside from having an extremely emo title, this is a nice game.

it's all about perception, some people will get it straight away others (like me) will take absolutely ages and get frustrated with it. please don't ruin it by posting the solution .

I figured it out!!1

It had taken Dr. Duke well over a year himself, and he would always explain that the smarter you were, the longer it took to figure it out.

 

[Belsameth]

me too!! \o/

Then you're a geniuos, you win!

[Validus]

annoying thing!! nothing works

 

[Sharma]

I cant see a pattern at all tbh.

 

[BlitheringIdiot]

:wall:

 

[Validus]

me too, no pattern so far, but i'm sure when i find it out i'll slam my head against the wall

I'm sensing it's really simple. I used to do this loads... you'd see a question... try to think of a hard answer for it... and it'd end up being the simplest thing you've ever heard.

Bels explained to me her way of doing it, hasnt work At all.

Snap and agree

I think I picked a bad time to try this figured it finally after about an hour but the solution is so well... almost insulting as I'm a fairly mathematical person

6:15am, think I'll go to bed now, will probably get woken up in 2 hours by my mate who I usually go cheer on with his Sunday league team (plays very good standard)

[Coim-]

I still haven't done it.

The solution is NOT mathematical at all! So stop trying to work out any complex formulas and the order of the dice isn't important.

 

[Validus]

still dont get it

 

[BlitheringIdiot]

I can PM you the answer if you wish, but it will probably only disappoint you.

 

[Jonaldo]

The solution is such a let down

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

Not sure what the solution is but I know that I need to take a really simple approach to it. Its f**king annoying me.

do not try to count the petals, for that is impossible. instead try and realise the ultimate truth.

there is no rose
