    also could get 947 & 949.
    don't think its possible. but prove me wrong eh?!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,061 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    That sounds about right. I probably should add at this stage that I just pluck random numbers from the keypad and there is no guarantee of an answer

    I just found an online solver and checked it...you are right, it's impossible.

    Who gives us new numbers now...Quazzie2002 or .50 (MOA)?

    you shoulda went ahead without me, no point in leaving the thread hangin. but since i'm here.

    654


    i just randomly thump numbers in too, but i do try to check that its not too easy. having something like a 75 and a 2 with 150 as the total would be pointless- no challenge

    The number are to be 6 numbers from 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,25,50,75,100

    Four of your numbers are invalid

    That makes it harder to pick numbers than it is to do them --
    took less than 20 seconds to get the target, took 15 minutes to pick numbers :eek:

  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users Posts: 170 ✭✭.50 (MOA)


    total between 100 and 999 - 3 digits

    4725 is a tiny bit over the limit

    and you can pick the no.'s 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 twice in any selection.


    so its any six from

    1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3,

    4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6,

    7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9,

    10, 10, 25, 50,

    75, 100

    Then it would take approx 30 mins to pick 6 numbers to justify reasonable difficulty - I'm not happy :mad: - can we review the rules please?


  • Registered Users Posts: 170 ✭✭.50 (MOA)


    the game's based on the game on countdown hence the name of the thread, using its rules. don't wana step on any toes here but it can't hurt for me to put up some numbers.

    i'll have 5 wee ones and one big one please Carol- sorry, I mean Rachel.

    4,7,8,3,2,75
    478


    like what i did there? :D:D:D:D:D
