<p>Ahh.. I just got it. Took me, 10 minutes.</p>
<p>I think you people are missing the "coolness" of the puzzle. You see humans are basically all alike, yet in so many other ways, so very different. This puzzle is proof of how differently we think, because the puzzle does indeed take many people months, while others get it on their first try... there is no correlation to intelligence either, just interpretation etc. Yeah, it's a bit more fun if it mystifies you for a while, but... show it to others, a few may struggle with it (sometimes its surprising to see who, sometimes its not).</p>
<p>ok...that was bs..at first it hought that was the pattern but i was like its too simple and was trying different things...that was annoying..yess..petals around the rose.. great hint!</p>
<p>btw i didit for 5 minutes..really focused..wasnt getting it..bu then while i started talkin to my friend on the phone and doing it..it was simple..just did it..then i was like freak..thats soo easy</p>
<p>I figured it out after about 10 rolls. It's amazxing how freakingly difficult it seems until you figure it out.</p>
<p>I like that. Very easy if you think about it.</p>
<p>NICE! i got it after about 10 min... not too hard but very satisfying to get</p>
<p>can somebody private message the answer please.</p>
<p>I PMed you</p>
<p>i dont get it. i dont see a picture or anything...am i just guessing random numbers?</p>
<p>vaish88: hint- pay close attention to the title of the game, it is pretty important...</p>
<p>yeah i just got it right....but i'm still randomly guessing numbers. the coolness of this game is totally over my head</p>
<p>but is there supposed to be a picture i'm looking at? or is it just "how many petals around this weird metaphysical rose?"</p>
<p>pay attn to the name? hmmm.....</p>
<p>okay, i give up...I dont get this game maybe im missing something. can someone just PM me and tell me how to do it? otherwise i will seriously fail macro because i will be trying this rather than working on my project. Sorry to all the hard core puzzle-ers who will probably view me as a giver-upper, but i love logic problems, i really do...but once i have exhausted my interest in it it just bugs the heck out of me.</p>
<p>okay so i tried googling it to find the answer...no luck but i did find this interesting article about it
<a href="http://www.borrett.id.au/computing/petals-bg.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.borrett.id.au/computing/petals-bg.htm</a></p>
<p>btw if someone wants to put me out of my agony and PM the answer to me (please no more hints...its driving me nuts. I normally figure out puzzles quickly and i'm pulling my hair out.) go for it</p>
<p>not to sound bad or anything, but that was kind of stupid. i figured it out after about the fourth try. what's so cool about it?</p>
<p>its cool cuz the smart ppl get really into it and like work with binary numbers and weird tricks and they cant get passed that and think outside the box, so its funny to laugh at them.</p>
<p>HINT: DON'T THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.</p>
<p>okay, I got it after a couple tries, from the name and from the fact that it's really simple. Hehe guess that means I'm stupid!</p>
<p>got it right away, my first idea was right. guess i just play too many of these logic puzzles. haha, I like the quote about the smarter you are, the longer it takes....hmmm...sounds true...</p>
<p>the reason i originally thought the game was so fun was because i didn't pay attention to the title of the game at all and spent a lot of time doing it.... i didn't get any hints or anything...what makes it so good is that after you do solve the puzzle you realize how easy the puzzle was and how ironic the title of the game was and how much time you could have saved if you had known</p>
<p>Wow, took me a few minutes, but I never would have gotten it without the hints on CC.</p>
