Reply with quote Anyone care to help me understand why the name is important, without giving away the algorithm of how to solve it? The solution is really very easy - it can be solved using 2nd grade math

Look at the name closely again. Check out the dice. 's all I can say Very Happy _________________ Anything in parenthesis can (not) be ignored.

I think I got the meaning behind the name, but only after finding out the math behind the answer. I got up to 20 in a row correct before tiring of playing it. Seems to be the correct solution, but I am still not sure about the name clue. If someone could e-mail me the meaning it would be much appreciated. bluesmiley (AT) etvwclub (dot) com. Thanks. I am looking forward to showing this game to my family, but would like to verify the meaning of the name first. _________________ --)--------- Jennifer
