You are moving more than 2 segments with the turning part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 akaslickster Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 okay then turn your head upside down to read the 1st digit as a 2 then go right side up to read the 5, = 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 itachi-san Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 That really works. Try it!!!!!!!!!! Well, not really. You can't read 25, because you are only reading 1 digit at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
