Dont worry, no loud noises, nothing will jump out of the screen or anything stupid!

Just puzzled me how it works it out, i can see the patterns are not that random... but other than that it has me stumped!

The number you get is always divisable by 9 eg 18,27,36. And all these sybols are the same.

Because you will always end up with:

9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90


And those symbols are always the same symbol as each other, so it just shows you that one.


Fucking obvious surely isnt it?

There is only a certain amount of outcomes. It puts the same symbol on all these outcomes, and changes the symbol for the outcomes every time you do it.

Thats my guess anyway

The REAL question here, is how many times did you do it trying to catch it out?

Ive never seen it before, but it just seemed obvious to me, I glanced at what all the other numbers with the same shape were, saw they all divide by 9, and then realised that by defintion it HAS to always divide by 9

You ARE the cleverest person in the history of the internet though mate, it was to be expected you knew at first glance without seeing or hearing of it before.

Not really sure what prompted that reply, I wasnt trying to show off if thats what you mean, I was just saying that I hadnt seen it before, and what thought process I went through to work it out.

I dont like saying fuck in public, so used fook to give across the same level of annoyance as fuck but not quite.

I was fucking annoyed that the answer was so easy in the end. I had noticed a pattern in the shapes, but didn't twig that the 9's was the key.

Fucking straightforward when you know the answer, fuck!

Thats better!

If you are gonna swear, then fucking swear, otherwise dont! Fook is just a bit between the two for my liking.

PS - no fucking wonder you are so fucking behind given you are fucking about with this sort of shit!
