This WILL trip you out

check out this mind reader.....

ITs based off a math algorithm but i cant figure it out, its CRAZYYYYY. always tells you what your thinking check it...

 

[dominoy2k1]

WTF!!!!!!!!!! wierd.....thats all i can say...

 

[ZackyFarms]

ok i think i got it...

what happens is that each group of 10, like any number in the 10s or 20s or 30s add up to the same number. these numbers are all multiples of 9s, and all the symbols with the mutliples of 9s are the same

 

[dominoy2k1]

well the mind reader already got 2 wrong...

 

[ZackyFarms]

then your doing the math wrong

 

[dominoy2k1]

well i used 21 and it gave some number inthe 60.....i dunno

 

[PortCityMP3]

it goes where you move your cursor don't point it to the number you picked

 

[alexh]

it changes the symbols every time so that all the valid responses have the same symbol

 

[Kooldino]

it goes where you move your cursor don't point it to the number you picked

I suspected that too, but i stopped mousing over things and it's still right.

Ok ok, i got it.

No matter what, it will ALWAYS display the symbol that is the symbol for #9. BECAUSE it will always lead you there.

For example...

take 11...
11-(1+1)=9

take 12...
12-(1+2)=9

13-(1+3)=9

14-(1+4)=9

see the pattern here?

grouping works like this,,,

if you pick any number from 0 to 9, you always get 0.

it follows

0 thru 9 = 0
10 thru 19 = 9
20 thru 29 = 18
30-39 = 27
40-49 = 36
50-59 = 45
60-69 = 54
70-79 = 63
80-89 = 72
90-99 = 81

It kinda looks like the multiply by 9 trick using your fingers.

 

[kenoka]

That's why you can only pick two digit numbers. Yes, they all end up a multiple of 9. Cute.

 

[Stealth5]

notice also, the symbols change every time, but all the possible answers are the same symbol...not so freaky if you figure it out

 

[cjstringer]

Isn't it great that we all take the time to try and figure out how it's done, and knowing that 99% of the world thinks the guy who programmed this a genius.

 

[1sty]

Not a genius but telepath.

Call the Enquirer!

 

[PinoyNinja]

lol this is soo great

 

[LazerBlueP5]

Yeah I figured it out too after googling it for like 10 minutes. When I first figured it out I soon after because I noticed the correct answer symbol isn't JUST coorelated with #'s that are multibles of 9. They place the same symbol by all multibles of 9 and a few extras, to throw people off. Almost caught me, ALMOST! lol
Whoever designed it wasn't genius but very clever!
