How do they do that, it's kind of freaky.

lol It was wrong 4 times in a row for me...

It probably follows your mouse movement.

Not to mention, it has a REALLY REALLY good chance of getting it sine all the symbols are repeated at least 3 times.

It has of yet to get one right. With each of 3 numbers (it might be more) having the same symbol the number of guesses it needs are 100/3 = 33 but then once you take into account numbers that people are usually drawn to, that number of 'first' guesses decreases. It's just a game of odds.

I've been doing it pretty much non-stop for the past 10 minutes, and it has yet to get one wrong.

Actually I just counted, each item is 5 times... My god they give themselves really good odds. 100/5 = 20 out of that 20 probably the most choosen would be the ones with the book/smiley... haha Wow what a cheesy way to do it.

I found this a long time ago and asked my dad how it works he said that it had to do with some law of multiplication or something (notice 1 number any number, look at it after doing the thing once the symbol will have changed)

Ah hah hah! Markham is so smart, he figured it out. It has nothing to do with odds. It's that pesky nine.

they took every single double digit number and then calculated it out right. the answers that were used have the same symbol on it, so it will always be right if you calculate your answer right. Just to test it, I can guarantee you it will always be the answer that is under any multiple of 9 (9, 18, 27, 36, etc.)

I am right, aren't I? ADMIT IT!!!!!!! Every single time. If you do it right, the "mind reader" is right every time.

It has EVERYTHING to do with odds. Because the laws dictate that the rule you found WILL give you a specific outcome. In fact, I was even using that RULE when I was playing with it and it still got it wrong most of the times. Like I said before, it's where humans are drawn too ie makes the odds better that you'll get it correct.

Edit:
And frag:
Not necessarily true, because 0 isn't a multiple of nine and neither is 44 (some of the numbers I receive) it's just the likelihood you'll select those numbers is GREATER.

okay, I wasn't 100% correct with my multiple of 9 theory, but I was right about the part where they figured out every possible outcome and made it that particular shape.

You multiple of nine thing IS correct.

Its just everytime you click it, all the multiples of nine have a new picture, but they still are the same. This thing is soo old.

He was right no matter what you pick its a multiple of nine.
