Good luck figuring out this doozy.


Petals Around the Rose.


Newcomers to the game can be told three things:


  1. The name of the game is important
  2. Every answer will be an even number
  3. They can also be told the answer for every dice throw.


GIVING AWAY SOLUTION = BAN.

How do you know what three things can be told to newbs?

Eh. I got the hints from This story. That was the only way I could've figured it out, I think.

The only thing that made me get it was the title, and even then it took me a while.

I didn't get it at first, until I thought about the name.

I got it after about 20 tries and 5 minutes. Although I don't understand what the name of the game has to do with the pattern...

EDIT: Got the name's importance. That took me longer than finding the game's solution...

Tough stuff, untill you read the instructions.( which I have a habbit of NOT doing.)

 It took me an hour. After that, I took a break and went to a friend's house. I looked at It again, and I got it!

I got it... after writing down a page-worth of information that turned out to be useless once I figured it out.  *sigh*

Easy.  My first guess on how it worked was right, but I didn't test it because I had to get the phone.  Then I forgot and tried some other things for about a minute or less.  Then I remembered my first guess and tried it.  Easy.  Since I figured it out so quickly does that mean I am dumb?

I figured it out on my second try...

I'll admit, I can't figure it out. ;_;

It took me 5 minutes to solve.
