A silly game - or ... ?

It has been correct 18 out of 19 times so far. :shocked2:

Uh-oh. It should be 100% accurate. I haven't tested it very thoroughly, though. Let's hope it was a user error, incorrectly subtracting the digits?

:joust:

[bcooney]

So cool. Thanks.

[LaRetta]

I am CONVINCED that, if it doesn't work, it is most certainly User error! There is no way this can fail. I'd even bet money on it. :laugh2:

I KNEW you were going to say that. But we discourage gambling. Drink instead.

[mr_vodka]

Now that was fun. Just what I needed a good laugh. ;)

[Osman]

nice game based on some mathematics.

thanks for sharing

[Julian L]

really cool!

I bet this uses the same algorithm developed for the US voting machines.

[stefangs]

i'm shocked! this is scary.

[stefangs]

oh god, i finally got it! man, this is fabulous!!

[Charity]

This takes the cake. And then you all understand it but me. It is rather spooky. Can someone share the secret so I can laugh too? By the way, it works even if I do not concentrate on the blender or TV or whatever because I focused on a football game and it still worked so I know it is trick somewhere.

But where? How do I find it? Is it hidden script trigger? :Ask:

[Raybaudi]

The result of the subtraction is ALWAYS a multiple of 9 ( from 9 to 81 )!

... and the item name of the multiples is ALWAYS the same.

That's another game, I think...

[Charity]

Thank you for helping, Raybaudi, I saw the 9 and I thought it might be important but I did not understand. Now I do! I had to break that calc apart like a child might do.

Comment, you are some trickster. 'write it down and don't say it out loud and visualize' and stuff... you had me going good.

Now this is fun stuff. Much better than hangin' on Facebook or Myspace or even hangin' at the mall.

I created this file to illustrate the Monty Hall Problem...

Game show 3 doors, behind one door is a Brand New Car, behind the other two is a goat. You make your choice - then the host reveals one of the other doors that is the GOAT. you can decide to stay or switch.

Mythbusters did a elaborate episode on this - great for tv but the process could have been done with out resorting to a physical models and props.

I think that with the chosen rules (1 x car, 2 x goat), 6 records should be enough to prove the point, no?

[LaRetta]

Well it is time Comment's Psychic and Stephen's Monty Hall be brought back to the front so here is another one ... Psychic2.  And in this one, you don't even have to visualize anything.  It isn't as cool as Michael's file but I enjoyed creating it nonetheless.

You are right that it is not as good but I still liked it.  One thing, Ocean West, can you explain your Monty Python to me?  I do not get it.  I am sorry but I keep looking at the records over and over and still do not understand it.  Thank you Comment, LaRetta and Ocean West for the fun examples.  I have decided to make a tick-tack-toe game for fun.  Wish me luck.

 

Also does anyone know when 14 will be out?  I am saving my money.

[Charity]

I mean Monty Hall.  Is Monty the name of a person?

I found it.  It is the name of a puzzle.  Here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem
