I tried that. Still can't figure out what that has to do with the numbers.

It doesn't have to be a rose. Just think about looking down at a flower.

last night I sat for about an hour trying to figure it out. tried to add, multiply, divide, ect. everything I could think of. Ended up giving up and going to do other stuff.

But today, while doing mind numbing work (painting a house) I was thinking of it, and (lightbulb) I had an Idea.

I was thinking it was some kind of math problem, having to do with the numbers on all the dice.. and while it kinda is .. don't think to hard about it.

Its simple.. and the petals on the flower give it all away.

there is no intense math involved, only counting

i dont' want to give away too much.. but it seems too easy so i devised this well thought out and carefully constructed image to allow you to contrast and compare a rose and some dice.... note where a roses petals are... ok now all you gotta do is apply that tot he dice and you are all set!


its on page 2 so i tihnk people would try it before they get to see this diagram which definately gives it away

Dammit! I was thinking of a Gerbera the whole time!

Thank you for your insightful picture Giz. Now I can go out and get myself a bottle of Rogain and start implanting my hair back.

That's been doing my head in for the past couple of days.
When I found out, I wasn't impressed.

I think I might have the answer. That's not an easy answer at all.

Shouldn't it be called "Petals around the roses?"


You must all be pretty stupid.
