That sucked, guess I'm not bright, got on the second try, about 10 seconds worth of work, and it wasn't even fun, and it sucked.

Why do I keep clicking on crap like this?

I still don't have it.

All that I can say is that the number of petals is (as far as I've seen) always even.

grrrrrraaaaaaarrrrrrggghhhhhh


-sm

it has taken me 20 min so far, but I stopped playing because of Internet costs. Best guess, It would take me about 1-2 years because, well, my IQ is 136 ( how is it that a circumstance like this makes you feel ashamed of how smart are you:mad: )

ok, let me say that i don't believe the "smarter" you are the longer it takes, because the people i see finishing quickly (although i may disagree with them at times) are definitely not ranking low on the intellectual scale. for all of you that in the past have thought i was the world's biggest dumbass - point proven.

i've been going for 45 minutes and i am so f'ing pissed right now. i have never felt more stupid in my entire life. would someone please take pity on me and email me big picture that i am obviously missing.

i don't know what to say. i don't believe it, i'm at a loss. oh well.

I don't really think that smarter people take more time to solve it... I think that a person who is more open-minded, creative, and/or not technically-minded will probably solve the puzzle faster. Once I figured out the answer, I realized that the programmer inside of me had been working against me... I was looking at it all wrong.

If somebody tells you, it may end up making you feel even worse. It's very simple, it's just not immediately obvious to some people, depending on how your mind works.

This still pisses me off...I punched in 2 and clicked, then figured it out......I'm probably the dumbest of the regulars here, and it wasn't fun, wasn't stimulating, the smarter you are crap is crap, and I came back to this thread...that's what really bunches my undies.

I don't think so...not by a long shot.

Dude, if you think I'm dumb, just come out and say it. I can't any more of these veiled insults. Sniff.

Ow, my feelings.

If anyone really wants he answer I'll PM it to them; I do have to agree, it's nothing to do with how smart you are, just your abiliaty to think laterally - something which in itself is a sign of intelligence and creativity. As I said before, being a coder or any job where similar types of thinkig are needed is a massive disadvantage.

If you can't solve it, do this.
Stand back, repeat the name out loud to yourself a few times, click roll, get the answer and think for a few minutes... Think about the name.

HP, as dumb as you are, you are by no means the dumbest person on The Cellar. :)

Just shut up before you know who starts a vote for the dumbest thread.:rolleyes:

Finally got it, one day later.

What's really bad is that that was the first solution that came to mind, however I took the language of the question too literally. After dismissing my original hypothesis, I went scatter brained and attacked the problem, looking for all sorts of things. I noticed one attribute that kept popping up, but I didn't stop to think out the logical ramifications of that until I left the problem and came back to it.

I'm just glad that "rose" isn't a homonym for "rows".
