2. Look REALLY closely
I'm not about to give away the whole secret... but look at all the cards VERY closely.

3. Oh yeah
OK, I won't give it away, either. But memorize all the cards.

4. This bloody webpage is like a damn virus

I've received almost as many pointers to this as I do spam. Needless to say this stupid page really irritated me...


If you want the answer and you don't want to wade through that miserable jammering, here's the solution.

10. How it works
Edited on Fri Dec-26-03 06:22 PM by JCCyC
"Number minus sum of its digits" is (10x + y) - (x + y) = 9x

All multiples of 9 are associated with the same symbol (which changes each time you play). That's the symbol they show.

Recognize the sound effect? ;)

Edit: clearer writing
