How Many Petals Around the Rose?

Petals around the Roses. It's a rather interesting game of figuring out how to get the answer. Read the 3 notes, and try it out. If you get the answer, dont post it here, dont spoil it for everyone else. Some people spend 1 or 2 minutes and get it, others take hours, most never do. If youre a techie, odds are you've seen this already. Dont spoil the fun.

Yeah, for once, I got the trick quite rapidly. This is the very first time that I can do smart things on a friday afternoon!

Well it's a nice lateral thinking exercise.

Ah, I've seen this before. Couldn't figure it back then until someone told me how to do it.

The side article on Bill Gates is amusing.

Some people say that what smarter you are, the longer it will take to get an answer.

So I quess I am some kind of genius. I have tried about 3 years and I still have no idea. (Or maybe I am more stupid than my boots...)

If I feel really evil... I use this on poor unsuspecting job interviewees.

But I use 4 white dice and a red dice, which makes it even harder. BWAHAHAHAAHHAHA!

That IS evil!

Once I had a dream about a job interwiew. It was not a nightmare, but closest it than I have had many years... No, closest was a dream about calculating negative molecular masses with Exel, and (surprise...) those masses did no make any sense

And worst part was that every time when I woke up, I remembered that I actually needed to make sense one "negative" molecular mass... I nearly decided that I will never drink again.

Anyway, that job interwiew dream. In it I was very pissed of, because questions were so damn easy ("you have 7 cows and you sell 3. How many cows you have?"), but I could not hear those question well and I answered wrong. When I heared a question, I just didn't know the answer, and I ended to get about zero points. That dream really sucked... But not as much as this stupid rose problem in jod interwiev would

It's actually pretty simple. Just keep trying.

And I'm surprised this thread was still lying around..
