Stuff like this always amuses/entertains me. Some of you have probably seen this before, if so, too bad, check it out again!

I did it about 6 times, it only got what I was guessing once, so I was kinda stumped as to what was so special about it.

It really got it 5 times in a row for you?

My guess is that it uses popular number combinations people are likely to pick. It also isn't as random as it looks, there are only maybe 8-9 symbols in there? Even still, picking the right symbol 5 times in a row out of 8-9 is pretty good.

they way it does it is that there are only certain numbers you can pick if you do it right and they all have the same symbol

Didn't get me right once. Must be set on US citizens while us euro's are excluded, as usual :sleepy:

your not doing it right :) the number you stare at isnt your original number its the one you get after you add the digits and subtract.

I picked 99 and 86.

99 - (8 + 6) = 85

The list only goes up to 82...

its true it only works for numbers that works, exemple, no negative numbers.

I choose 5 that works, with different symbols, and it worked.

I am afraid to try it a 6th time :)

aug you dont pick 2 numbers silly,

example 75

75-(7+5)= the number you should stare at

LOL, duh.

Well then its simple.

99 - (9+9) = 81
98 - (9+8) = 81
97 - (9+7) = 81
90 - (9+0) = 81

Any number that starts with 9 will end up being 81.
Any number that starts with 8 will end up being 72.
Any number that starts with 7 will end up being 63.
Any number that starts with 6 will end up being 54.
Any number that starts with 5 will end up being 45.
Any number that starts with 4 will end up being 36.
Any number that starts with 3 will end up being 27.
Any number that starts with 2 will end up being 18.
Any number that starts with 1 will end up being 9.

So really, there are only 9 choices.

If you look at the board, those 9 choices ALL have the same symbol. The symbol changes each time you play, but they will always be the same.

Haha,

I thought it was good cause the five times I did it the symbol changed.

Sorry for being a dumbass, I am working too hard, its frying my brain.

If it didnt get you guys, Im sorry to say but your math is wrong. <ducks>


I knew there was a trick to it, but when you first do it, it is rather freaky.


:biggrin:
