Article about "Petals around the rose"

http://member.melbpc.org.au/~lborret.../petals-bg.htm

Regarding the "Petals around the rose" puzzle we had here recently. Apparently there is a Fraternity for people who know the secret, and Bill Gates took hours to figure it out. Enough, click and read.

Damn my math background.

I finally figured it out when it got to the part about Bill Gates getting it in the story. Grrrr... I even tried something like it before that, but it was a wrong interpretation.

Re: Article about "Petals around the rose"

Just think hard about the name of the game..."Petals around the rose."
Once you get it, you'll be saying to yourself "ohhhhhhhhh, that's it" like I did.

Re: Article about "Petals around the rose"

yeh it took me about 1/2 hour to figure out, and thats because i went through some of the older posts and read some links that were posted, until one basically just gave the answer away heh.
