The first time I could understand. I put my cursor right over the darn thing. The second I didn't touch my mouse. The third time I didn't touch my mouse. That is creepy! Ok, I'm gonna do it again. IP: Logged |

Yeah, that's tripping me out. I just did two in a row with different numbers that came out to the same sign, and it still got it.IP: Logged |

Surprised it worked for me considering how apalling I am at maths! I was absolutely astonished by this thing til you gave your clue Kamilla thanks I seriously thought they had, like, spies or ghosts watching you! So I stopped mouthing the numbers or saying it out loud and it still worked!!! haha IP: Logged |

It doesn't matter . They always the same for 9, 18, 27, 36, 45,54,63,72 and 81, which are the only possible answers to your calculation. Try it without picking any numbers just click nextIP: Logged |

We've just divided the total number of icons which is 84 by the number of each different icon and there were 9 of each sign I think - 9x9=84 so is it something to do with that? Given that I couldn't ever do maths at school, and would crawl under my desk at the very mention of "A train is travelling at..." type questions, I'm afraid I didn't get any further with that little thesis Any ideas?

Oh but it is! The good ole mystical number 9! Weird isn't it how the number 9 forces itself into the equation whichever numbers you choose? IP: Logged |

Ah, ok - I get it. I did realize that my answers were all multiples of 9, and the symbols for the multiples of 9 were all the same - but, they're not always assigned the symbol. Each time you do it, the 9's are assigned a different symbol. So, that's why you get different results - F'ing brilliant....Who thinks this stuff up? IP: Logged |
