This .swf blows my mind...

Post by Femto »

Any ideas on how it's done?

EDIT: I figured it out.

Lock plz.

I remember this fooling me when I was a freshman.

Its easy to figure out. The way it works, you will always get one of the same numbers, its always a multiple of 9. And all those numbers have the same symbol.

Well, what's more to it's trickery is that those fixed symbol locations are loaded with a new answer symbol randomly each time you reload it. This way it looks like it's guessing a different symbol each time, but it's just a new symbol in the same spot.

Like if the location was 45 and it was an X the first time, if you reload it changes to let's say a yin yang symbol as does the answer.
