Check how dumb you are :)
Permalink  

Try to guess how many petals there are around the rose in this little puzzle-game.

The smarter you are, the more trouble you will have solving it. So if you see the sollution quickly, well... you can draw your own conclusions then ...

If you solved it, please don't spoil the fun for others, or for yourself, knowing that the others are getting more and more frustrated with it...

Got it on the second go.  Had my suspicions on the first.


I'm really dumb.

Wow! you got it on the second go??? Man, you must be as dumb as an a*s!!!

I spend almost 2 days on it. I don't know if the average is any quicker or slower...

We'll see.  If everyone here has a go, we can establish whether I'm dumber than everyone else...


Or do we already know the answer to that, based on my experience at lunchtime...

Two important points come out of this comment:


1.  Yes it is kinda silly.


2. Katie has a sister.  There is a god!
