12:23:34 PM 2/24/03 “Didn't work for me! It was off by 5.” 12:27:18 PM 2/24/03 LOL! “Stumpy... you musta added wrong, I took a look and it is always right. My side-kick powers tell me that wolfeyes and everyone else who reads this thread will end up with a wave symbol.” 12:43:50 PM 2/24/03 “i got the arrow symbol” 12:46:36 PM 2/24/03 “OH Sheeyat - the damned thing changes the symbols around every time. OK... here is my revised side-kick prediction. The digits in the number you get (the one that matches the symbol) will add up to 9.” 12:48:43 PM 2/24/03 “i can't get it to work! it never fully loads for me... i love magic, too!” 12:49:36 PM 2/24/03 “well I dont understand it, but I did like the sound affects, Beam me up scotty!!” 12:51:54 PM 2/24/03 “it doesnt work if you just pick a symbol and think about it :)” 12:55:50 PM 2/24/03 SPOILER “Ok, the geek had to come out in me. By doing a little analysis, the final number you will get is always a multiple of 9. Even freakier is that is it always the first digit in your number times 9. So if you choose 40, 41, 42, 43, ..., 49, you will always get 36 as your final number. As pedxing pointed out, the character legend changes everytime you reload the page. So basically, on the legend, all multiples of 9 have the same symbol. To test this out, write down a few numbers and check them out before clicking on the submit button. Sorry for spoiling the fun, sometimes you just can't control the geek.” 12:56:36 PM 2/24/03 “I'm glad you did that matt, I was there counting symbols” 12:57:42 PM 2/24/03 “It's a math trick. If you think about why the new number has to add up to nine, you will understand the trick.” 12:57:48 PM 2/24/03 “the clever part is the changing of the legend each time” 1:00:09 PM 2/24/03 “ok so matt can tell us what the hell is going on in some other website but not TT. I dont hink so...” 1:02:00 PM 2/24/03 “That's cool. If not for ped's sidekick ability, I might not have figured that one out.” 1:03:01 PM 2/24/03 “BAN MATT!” 1:07:13 PM 2/24/03 Thanks, Matt... “This damn thing had me stumped all night at work.” 11:38:51 PM 2/24/03 “peas are better than green beans.....” 11:45:41 PM 2/24/03 “No bad math here, maybe I didn't concentrate hard enough? lol!” 11:49:51 PM 2/24/03
