The number you'll have is always a multiple of 9

those who were in the lounge two weeks ago know the answer. Maybe we'll tell. Maybe.

Behold, the power of Math!

Didn't work for me. Must only work on the weak-minded.

Ah, the old multiples of 9 trick. The symbols and numbers are set up every time to be a multiple of 9. Good stuff. Like itai said. You guys are fast.

It changes the symbols each time. So I thought it haddent worked for me when I went back and checked the symbol.

Note that the same symbol is used for each multiple of 9

Of course, this pretty much supports my half a mind comment in the other thread....

If Heaven has a dress code, I'm walkin to Hell in my Tony Lamas.

The symbols change every time you "try again" so whatever number you choose...the mindreader never misses.

You can test this really easy, the outcome will ALWAYS be the symbol next to the zero.

Damn, copy/pasting from another thread is easy!

EDIT : Not THAT easy so it seems
