    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 O_o

    I will PM the answer if you want.
    I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're going, and hook up with them later.

    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...

    i said the number was two and provided my own logic that backed up my conclusion. did I just make up that logic out of thin air too?

    But could a preschool kid come up with the answer in that way?
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    what, then, was the question mark behind the sentence......to be honest, when I first read it and saw the = 3 in your "spoiler" I assumed you were arguing with me and Damo and claiming it was 3 instead of 2.....

    No.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    0 = 1
    1-5 = 0
    6 = 1
    7 = 0
    8 = 2
    9 = 1

    works for every number.

    where you guys think like preschoolers, I came up with an entirely different solution that works in every instance.
