The older you are the harder this is...apparently

[cancel2 2022]

This took me about 4 minutes, I shall have to try this on some young children.

Hmmm.....it can't be a math problem, because preschool kids wouldn't solve it. Evidently, the pattern is so obvious, the more you try to read into it...the longer it takes to solve.

I've been staring for about 5 minutes, and see no pattern

 

[PostmodernProphet]

got it in less than two minutes.....I think like a child....the answer is two....

 

[Damocles]

I see the pattern. But I don't want to post the answer or I may give it away...

Well, that doesn't matter now. The answer is 2.

1.99999...

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

2581 = 2?

Spoiler

1111 = 0
2222 = 0
3333 = 0
5555 = 0
7777 = 0

6666 = 4 (i.e 6 = 1)

9313 = 1

1's and 3's are place holders for 0's, so 9 must be a 1 (durrr)

8193 = 3 (2 + 0 + 1 + 0)

etc

the "spoiler" is wrong...

 

[PostmodernProphet]

Grind's face = 5

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

umm no?

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

hmmmm weird. maybe i am wrong. still go the right answer though

also.. it fits in most places

Nice try but wrong!!

 

[cancel2 2022]

Grind's face = 5

Please don't reveal the answer. I should have told people to send PMs to me, too late now! I love to see Grind, with a brain the size of a minor asteroid, getting his knickers in a twist. Maybe he should ask a four year old.

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

I WAS RIGHT! the ends justify the means. I also didn't really devote much time to it. (unless damo is also wrong and the answer isn't 2)

 

[Cancel 2018. 3]

9

everything is always

9

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

ok i am right... the pattern fits with every number. soooooo unless it's a total coincidence that the cipher works when you plug it in in every spot, i dont' know

I will PM the answer if you want.

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

sure

This took me about 4 minutes, I shall have to try this on some young children.

I must be a genius because I have absolutely no idea.

 

[BRUTALITOPS]

dude seriously.... my erroneous solution works for EVERY number on there ..

how is that possible O_O

how are [x] correlated with such a cipher...
