In Mystery Sign you must find the answer to a problem to earn points. The game will consist of 11 rounds.
A problem made up of two numbers and a mystery sign will be revealed to both players each round. You must then find the problem's hidden rule and guess the correct answer.
When a problem is revealed, each player will choose a number other than 0 for a hint. The hint will be the solution to the problem using these numbers.
An example problem: 3 ? 5 =
In this example the hidden rule is "the sum of the squares of both numbers". Player 1 chose '9' and Player 2 chose '11'. The hidden rule of 92 + 112 would be applied and "202" would be the first hint.
Then you must find the hidden rule based on this hint and solve 32 + 52 to get "34". However, keep in mind that not all problems will necessarily be mathematical. Keep an open mind.
You will be given 2 minute to answer after the fist hint is revealed. The first player to figure out the pattern must post their answer to the original problem in this thread (they do not need to post the rule, just their answer to the initial problem). If they are correct they gain 1 point. If the player is incorrect, they will lose 1 point and the other player will be given a chance to answer.
If no one is able to answer within 2 minutes, each player will choose another number for a second hint. You will continue getting hints and answering until a player correctly answers and ends the round. If no one is able to answer after 10 hints, we will move on to the next problem.
The player with more points after round 11 will win.

I have essentially overdosed on wine and valium and can barely comprehend anything in that post. Kyunghoon post your times now and I'll have my agent look into my availability in the morning.

That's 9^2 and 11^2, the font might not be showing it right.

This could be a fairly quick game unless you guys are using all 10 hints every single round so just let me know a time and it can be done fairly easily and on short notice.

Wednesday night work for you Kyunghoon? I'd sooner do this later in the evening. No earlier than 9:00 or so. 11:00 or even midnight would be best of all.

It depends on you guys how quickly this goes. I don't think an hour is enough though if this is to go all 11 rounds. i.e the only way it would end in time is if there's a blowout.

I can win this in a blow-out if necessary  However since I have a black-out here and my phone is barely charged it might be best to try another night? Hopefully it'll be fixed soon. |
