TW, dude... somebody really needs to introduce you to the calm, peaceful world of Decaf.

After reading that, I went back to the site and got it immediately. I guess it's all how you approach the problem. I normally look for numerical patterns and I had to throw that out the window.

There are no roses, and no numbers either. Are there are, is dots.

What kind of mind blames the problem for their lack of solution?

Radar 06-07-2004 05:44 PM
I don't know. You should ask someone who blamed the problem. I didn't blame the problem. I blamed my approach to the problem.

Yeah, the one I went to was more mixed gender-wise, but other than that my experience matched yours pretty well.

uh oh, i got it on the 2nd try. i can only hope it was a lucky guess.

you have to get it 3 times to demonstrate that you understand the pattern

I bet this could be adapted into a drinking game pretty easily

Ooh, I know! Whenever the number of "petals" is an even number, you have to take a drink!

If you're creative, ANYTHING can be adapted into a drinking game pretty easily! :beer:

Everyone claims a die (color code them). If your die is a rose, you have to take a drink.

lumberjim 06-07-2004 09:48 PM
boy, you two would be drunk in a hurry. Although HP has told me that he can drink most of you under the table, especially tw, who he feels can't hold his liquor.*

I was thinking you'd take turns rolling 5 dice, and the highest number thrown has to drink a shot. Or the lowest number thrower drinks a number of sips of beer corresponding to the highest thrown amount of petals.

* that's a lie. he never once said anything bad about anybody, as far as I know. I was just being dramatic.

Petals around the rose took me about 7 minutes. I had to drop the logical side and go with pure creativity. Hint: The dice are pictures, not dice. I'm calculator stupid; having problems adding up single digit numbers. That's what takes me so long... :p

The magic picyure is of a gingerbread man. if you cross your eyes, he appears. If you defocus your eyes, it looks a bit like two people doing something nasty with foam rubber pipe insulators.
