Okay, I got it. Duh. I did go to another web site which put it another way. They had four dice. They didn't really say anything different than the first web site, and didn't give any other clues.

Man I guess im stupid I got it without fail, all in the semantics.

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

I hate this game. I actually tried to google a site to tell me what the answer was. Well, I went to a site that had the same game but the dice weren't colored.

[continues to HATE game]



If I knew then what I know now then I would know more now than I know.

I found a site that claimed to have the answer, but I didn't look. I am still pure.

Ok, I cheated. What a stupid puzzle. I hate you and your stupid game! [runs out of the room crying]

An old roommate of mine used to be in the habit of saying, "this is a stupid game, I'm never going to play it again," in response to computer and/or video games he'd been introduced to but didn't "get" very quickly. Inevitably, he'd be back at it in under an hour.

self loathing, game hating, and self inflicted head injury. i'm damned glad i looked at the source code.

all great truths began as blasphemies.

I will continue to cling to the comment that "the smarter you are the longer it takes to figure the game out"!

I must be a freaking genius....
