I agree...Swiftwind said:I get it now, but it really should have been called 'petals around the roses'.. in my opinion.
It is literal in the sense it is what you see that counts, not the assumption that dice with dots=numbers you have to add together as you would in a game...that is not literal, that is a learned notion about dice and what it is used for. Ignore the dice and just look at the dots as objects, as you would a flower's petals or polar bears around a drinking hole, instead of something that equates to a number…what you literally see, not what you assume.SnakeIce said:bbbut mathmatical is literal. can't get any more specific than mathmatical.

My wife tried and failed too... she went looking for the solution and that's how I know what it is now.
