First I looked at it. WTH. After some guessing, started to do mathematical crap on it. Entered it into my calculator to get mean, standard deviation, etc... Still nothing. Eventually I got it through math, but I won't elaborate on how since I want this to take forever for everyone else too... I think I wasted over half an hour on this. But yeah, in retrospect, the name means something.

LOL!
Holy crap. What the hell?
After a half an hour... I finally got it.
I googled it - researched it - looked on other forums. I even put the poor game through many mathamatical equations. It seemed so odd. SO very odd.
But I discovered the answer on complete fluke - and it is NOTHING you will ever imagine mathamtically. Just look.
Well, atleast I solved it faster than Bill Gates. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Uhm, what the heck? I thought I had it all worked out, since I kept getting it right, but suddenly I get it wrong. Then I do the same thing I've always done, and I keep getting them wrong. asdf.
Ok so the smarter you are the longer it will take you? <a href='http://leech.dk/whocares.jpg' target='_blank'>who cares?</a>
It's not like being creative in solving problems is going to help you anytime during your life, it's always the simplest or most logical answer. Do you see calculators asking you what your temperature is, how you feel or the first thing you think of when you hear banana? I think not.

Got it. Didn't take very long, either. I hate silly "guess the right answer, OOPS, I meant <b>my</b> right answer, there's no proper answer just one I say it is anyway it's just a game OLOLOLOL!" games like this.
Got it after the first try. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Whoops, I forgot to go through the wang-demonstration ritual. "I did it on my first try. Hell, I worked it out <i>before</i> I clicked any buttons, or even went to the website. God, I'm so great."

VICTORY IS SIDS!
Got it 3rd roll.
Now, does this mean I'm smart, or just good at metaphor?

Polar bears sit in pairs around holes in the ice like petals on a flower.
Plain and simple.
