How does it do it?

That's what I was trying to say, but I couldn't be bothered to actually do the math.

It got me the first couple of times but then I it becomes pretty obvious. Clever though.

I didnt wait to see "try this again" i just refreshed the page.

But yeah, its the same symbols for the numbers.

29 = 2 + 9 = 11 : Total = 18
78 = 7 + 8 = 15 : Total = 63
12 = 1 + 2 = 3 : Total = 9

Whatever you do the final number is always divisible by 9. Every number on that list that divides by 9 will have the same symbol. And that is the symbol that will appear.

Everytime i go on it, it's the same symbol.

It doesn't show the same symbol every time, but the symbols do change. The important thing to note here is that the calculation you do makes it possible for only certain numbers to be correct, all of which have the same symbol, these sysmbols then move so it doesn't look like the same symbol every time. The other symbols are assigned to numbers that cannt possibly ever be the answer to you calculation no matter what numbers you choose. There's your answer.

No, the symbol does change.

sorry Aoe, but it's not how its done at all, it shows the same symbol everytime.

Aha, I do hope you're joking.

This is so old.

It's also unimpressive and blatantly rigged - anyone with eyes should be able to work it out after a first run through.
