Well, how about there are no "givens" ? Seems like one needs some assumptions to come up with a derivative number, no?

I'm taking the position that since I can't figure it out, I must be some sort of genius.

Since I KNOW that's not true ...

I couldn't figure it out either and had to have someone tell me. If you want, I can PM you with the answer so as not to give it away for others still trying to figure it out.

I had figured it out - but decided not to share publicly (it says you aren't supposed to)
guess my weird mind just works like that.

Well, if not getting this game means you're smart, I'd better contact Mensa...

I THOUGHT I had it on the second roll, but pride goeth before a fall - so I too will be with my Cybersis in "Genius Land!"

OK, somebody who knows, PM me the answer before I drive myself bonkers and lose my job in the process!

I figured it out by reading and re-reading the instructions, looking for clues within.
Pretty cool little puzzle.

Here's how dumb I am: I "figured" it out immediately, but miscounted and thought I was wrong for several minutes until I went back to my original theory and tried it again. DUH! There is a fine line between brilliance and idiocy!
