I hate this one, I really do
Petals Around the Rose (http://personal.baker.edu/web2/cdavis09/roses.html)
I looked up help, and got some "think outside the box" bullshit type clues. "The title of the game is RILLY RILLY important!" Uh huh.
I cheated. I admit that right now. Can you figure it out?

yeah, i figured it out. : )
its the number of dots around a middle dot. add them all together! should always been an even number or zero.

Well, y'all can nickname me Stephen Hawking, because I would have never figured it out. I stared at it for about 10 minutes before throwing in the towel :tongue:

yeah yeah, that's just because some people can't see the obvious and want to save themselves from looking entirely stupid. who was the guy that couldn't figure out the game for like a year?

<--- simple minded.
i got it in the first guess.
though i did roll the dice a few times before guessing just to see what was going on.

Can't we just pretend it's true? :frown:
Actually, I don't see it as being "smart" than just seeing things differently.

Oi! Stop giving it away, you're supposed to keep it a secret :p
I donno, I got it on the second try. It's one of those you-solve-it-right-away-or-you-don't type things. A game based on a single idea which isn't all that clever doesn't really satisfy me. If it was a part of a larger puzzle it would be interesting, assuming each part required some semi-intuitive thinking. Hell I'm fucking drunk and got it which probably helped me. If you solved it or didn't I don't think you really should worry much about it. I kinda like lethalweapon's survivor-like quests and crimson room a bit more since a single idea doesn't drive the entire thing.

Actually, you're the smartest one here. Apparently, the smarter you are the longer it will take for you to reach the correct conclusion.

You solved the pattern on your first try? Don't you have to repeat the game at least more than once to confirm/reject your conjecture?
