Smacked it on the second throw. I've been listed in some "Hall of Fame" Eat your heart out Gates!
I can give one hint aside from the three you get in the game itself. The hint is crucial to solving the puzzle, but the hint is just something that is mentioned in the game itself. Though the link above misleads you into thinking it's not important.
Right. Curse you all 😉. I figured it out on the first roll, but it took me about 20 minutes, because ''petals around the rose'' suggests modular arithmetic and the ''She loves me, she loves me not'' thing rather than the really silly thing which, though I don't know it, I assume is the answer as it always works.
