It took me a good 10mins. Might take u 10seconds might take u weeks

 

[Dyne]

Took me two days of hell back when I was introduced to it. I was the last in my group of friends. I should have saved some of the papers I scribbled on..

 

[Guzim]

got it

 

[sprsk]

what could it beeeeeeee!!!

 

[SteveMeister]

I got it before pressing "Check" the first time. Just read the directions and don't try to think too hard

 

[Archaix]

hey, got it. It was almost entirely a lucky guess, I suppose.

 

[Tenguman]

the title pretty much gives it away

 

[The Faceless Master]

yah that took me 15 minutes... as soon as i stopped trying to figure it out, i figured it out...

took my cousin two tries

took a friend of like 5 minutes

took another friend of mine over three hours

took yet another friend of mine almost a day

 

[jett]

I get it right sometimes...man I still haven't figured it out.

man, i was dumbfound until i looked back at the name.

 

[calder]

I read the instructions, clicked "roll" and for like 10 seconds couldn't even begin to guess how to figure it out because I'm terrible at math and math-based logic problems. Then it instantly dawned on me and I got it first try - once you get it you'll know you're right before you even check.

Spoiler

I got it when I realized I may suck at math, but I like english

 

[Hooker]

It took me like 5 hours, which is probably due to the language barrier

 

[tree fiddy]

I've done this a while ago. It took me a few hours. I didn't "think outside the box:. God I hate that expression.

 

[Outlaw]

Well...that was easy. Took me less than a minute in my 3rd try.

 

[sprsk]

oh man the answer is so retarded

 

[jett]

Does the phrase "petals around the rose" have some sort of special meaning in the english language?

No, just think of rose in a loose sense.

 

[SickBoy]

Yay for me. Three rolls figured it out.

PS: I thought this topic was related to the female anatomy.

[Lord Error]

I got it after about a minute or so, and a couple of rolls, but to hell if I understand why is the game called the way it is...

Spoiler

unless the middle dot on the dice is called the 'rose' in english? Or is it supposed to be just abstract, to make you think of the middle of the dice and look what is around it?

Spoiler

Id say abstract.

 

[Volt]

Got it on the 3rd roll, expected it too be waaay more difficult though

 

[Lord Error]

Hmm, OK, I guess they could have picked the better flower then
Roses always have those multi-layered, overlaping petals

 

[crumbs]

It's kinda disappointing when you "get" it.
