This was discussed awhile back on the Flashcomm list at figleaf:
According to Carlos Saenz
---------------------------------------------
Well here is how it works in laymen's terms:
Basically you have a table of numbers and symbols. To arrive at a
number, you are FORCED to do this:
1. X = {10 - 99} (any number from 10 to 99, you pick)
therefore:
2. a = {1 - 9} (must be first digit of X)
3. b = {1 - 9} (must be second digit of X)
4. X - (a+b) = C
3. C = 9*a
Therefore, C (the final answer) MUST BE 9*a.
So, if you picked say.... 25, then the ansewr (C) must be 18. If you
pick uhh.... 26! Then the answer is.. 18. If you pick 27, THEN the
answer is.... oh, uh, 18. But on the other hand if you pick 28 then the
answer is..... er..... 18.
If you look at the table and see whatever symbol is next to 9*a, it is
always the same symbol. So you can predict what the next symbol will be
before you click on the ball.
They also sprinkle the correct symbol on other numbers that you can
never arrive at, just to throw you off.
One question.... what did the hint about multiple monitors mean? I
missed that joke....
