Default Petals Around The Rose...

This game had my brain in knots for a while, and when I DID figure it out, I was slightly dissapointed because of its simplicity... But anyway...

Petals Around The Rose

Oh, and try not to spill the method...

It's easier than you think... Try and link the name of the game to the rolls on the dice... If you're looking for complex mathmatical formulae, save yourself the hassle, lol.

Not allowed to give out any secrets. And from what I can tell there really isn't any math behind it. I stopped looking for a mathematical formula when I read Shadow Link's post.

I got it right almost 100% after I tried a certain method... but what's up with the threes? Not sure why they would count. But, after I had them count... I got it right 100% of the time again, so I think I know what the game's all about. That, or I'm just lucky.

I got it in about 10 minutes the first time I tried it (Like a few months ago). The Name is what gave it away. I just thought about the name for like 10 seconds and BAM I got it.

It's very easy. It's all about the name. Regard the name I say!

Yeah, it's pretty easy once you figure out what's a rose and what's a petal.
