Sparky Marky Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 It works only if your answer is a multiple of nine.... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/472592-help-this-is-weirding-me-out/#findComment-587633928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Veteran Posted June 23, 2006 Veteran Share Posted June 23, 2006 It's all math... Whatever number you pick, after you do the subtraction, your number WILL BE a multiple of 9. On the screen with the symbols, check all the multiples of 9. They're all the same symbol.

Avalanche Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 It can't be wrong. Take 21 and do 21-(2+1) you get 18 (multiple of 9), take 22 -> 22-(2+2)=18, 23 -> 23-(2+3)=18 and so and so on. You will always get a multiple of 9 and the symbols are changing each time you play a new game.

gdodson Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 If it doesn't show a symbol corresponding to the number you ended up with, then you made an error in your calculations.

Got it, noticed the symbols change each game, so you think it is choosing correctly, but it is always the multiple of nine that is picked.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted June 23, 2006 Veteran Share Posted June 23, 2006 I tried it. It was wrong. Yeah it picked the wrong number for me too.. Then you two did not follow the instructions correctly. I did it 3 times got it right each time. G/F twice and it got them also. Different symbol on 4 of those occasions :blink: Each time you run through it changes the pattern of the symbols. The number you end up staring at, however, will always be a multiple of 9.

The number you end up staring at, however, will always be a multiple of 9. Yeah, got it a bit ago. Pick a 2 digit number. add the two digits and then subtract them from the first number. the answer will always be one of the following: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/472592-help-this-is-weirding-me-out/#findComment-587634039 Share on other sites More sharing options...

grimman Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Did it four times to spot recurring symbols... actually every time it showed me the same symbol so when that was established I moved on to testing the maths (before I read past the first post, mind), and what the others are saying checks out. So I'll be chiming in with my "if you suck at maths you'll think you fooled it". What John said is right. Try to disprove it all you like, but you'll be laughed at. ;P Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/472592-help-this-is-weirding-me-out/#findComment-587634561 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SerialMurderer Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Just a knock-off of the magic-crystal ball. I don't know how it works though. You can find alot of things like that. Maybe if you search in Google, you can find the answers.
