Can You Figure Out The Petals Around The Rose? - Fun brainteeser online: took Bill Gates hours to figure out!

The name of the game is Petals Around the Rose. The name of the game is important. The computer will roll five dice and ask you to guess the score for the roll. The score will always be zero or an even number. Your mission is to work out how the computer calculates the score and become a Potentate of the Rose.
Ahh... what a fun little thing. Took me but 10 minutes to figure out!!! But... very interesting indeed. Perhaps you should remember that the name of the game is important. Doing so would have saved me bundles of time -.-

Congratulations! We have another Potentate of the Rose.


Yea, I figured out the trick behind the brainteaser... although, if only I could interpret the name earlier, I would've save myself so much time tongue.gif

Nice game!

Took about half an hour. Don't think too hard about it, that's what let me down.
