"Stupid" Puzzle

Here it is: Puzzle (http://crux.baker.edu/cdavis09/roses.html#background)

The only gurantee i'll give you is that the smarter you are the longer it will take to figure out. Now on to the suffering...:D


please though if you solve it/have done it before ,dont give any spoilers away.

I just wasted a good hour + trying to figure out that stupid thing. I finally got it, but don't feel an ounce of relief, just hatred at the stupid thing...arrg....

Yesss! Got it in 10 minutes. And yep, that was pretty stupid.

you seriously got it in 10 minutes? Shoot, I feel like a moron...no wonder I died.

Don't worry. Before trying to figure out a complex formula or something I just thought like a cretin for 10 minutes.

I stared at that stupid thing mindlessly for a while, then started thinking and actually came up with this whole formula that worked for five or six rolls, then failed. Man, that formula was pretty sweet, too...I felt smart and whatnot. Piece of stinking trash!

Took me roughly an hour to figure out. I kinda cheated though, because I had a theory that the name had something to do with it, so I peaked in the comment box. :D

PP: One thing that might help is that the answer will always be an even number or 0. :)

Bah, I'm with PP, stupid thing...it's going to be so obvious when I get it, but fucking hell.

Man, I have the flu, n it made my headache worse.... :mad:

UGH!
Now I know what eon and pp are talking about. I am going to feel really stupid when I figure it out. Thats prolly why its the "stupid" puzzle....

you won't feel stupid. I finally got it, but instead of feeling like the moron I must be, I just hate the puzzle. Watch for me around that grassy knoll.

I remember seeing this about a year or two ago, and I didn't care then, much like now. I just did it for like 3 minutes and gave up. So what's the answer?

Man oh man, I love this puzzle! With a few hints, I got the whole thing in twenty minutes! By myself! I've never solved a puzzle by myself before! WOOHOO!

Seriously, I don't hate this game at all. It's a good way to vex your brain a bit. I'm going to show this to some people and feel smug when they keep guessing the wrong answer.

Guys, don't reveal the answer. I'll just say these three hints from that website:the name of the game (Petals Around The Rose), the answer is always an even number, and the answer for any particular throw.

Did I mention that I loved this puzzle? :D

Too be honest I was too lazy to do that. So I had my hubby do it n tell me...Yea thats right I cheated, lol...I sick ya'll have sympathy for me, lol.
As I know now, all I'm going to say is "Ahhh ok"

But this isnt really a puzzle. Much like the

1
11
21
1211
111221
312211

'puzzle' it is simply a mathmatical problem.

That puzzle's easy, the other one....dammit.

It's not really a puzzle, but eh...

Sit on a chair...move your right foot in a clock-wise motion...AND at the same time try and draw the number '6' with your right hand...

It took me under one minute. Does that mean I'm really dumb, or does it take in account that someone tries a different mathemetical outcome each go?

hmmm... How come I can actually do that?

hmmm... How come I can actually do that?
You're not the only one, is this supposed to be like the patting your head and rubbing your stomach thing?

Uh!?! I thought it impossible...

I just checked the petal puzzle...I must be very, very, very stupid. I got it on my second try. My first thought was "There are no petals because there is no rose...". Then I saw how simple the stupid thing is.

I must be really smart because I'm drunk and I still can't figure it out...wait...whaaaat????
