I got it to come up with the wrong thing twice but I dont know how it would work. Got me stumped.

although the icon changes each time u do it, that ion appears in the same position every time.
e.g.
38 - 11 = 27
43 - 7 =36
91 - 10 =81
92-11 = 81

hence the same symbol occurs at no.s 27 36 81 etc. note that different numbers (91, 92) have teh same result as for each increment, the number to be subtracted goes up by the same amount...

simple maths guys

ahh ok my mate explained it...whenever u have a two digit number and take its sum away from itself u end up with a multiple of nine...now check the board thing, there are only nine different symbols, repeated every nine places, just mixed up...so it works on the offset of the each set of numbers.

the fact that it only gives u 10 seconds and tells u to focus on ur number also draws ur attention away from the fact that they repeat...hope it kinda makes sense, i still cant grasp how they figured it out.

yah thats it, coz i was trying it and look and saw all the same symbols and thought it was sus

3 is a multiple of nine...

3 is a multiple of nine...

False, 3 is a factor of 9. Cool trick though, much more fun than that whole "chocolate knows your age" thing that I keep getting in my email.
