Try this little game... AND TELL ME HOW IT WORKS!!! Cause I'm fucking confused.

Spoiler: I was right the first time all the answers end up being a multiple of 9.
I chose 17, so 1+7=8, 17-8=9
Lets go 42, so 4+2=6, 42-6=36
Now try 76, so 7+6=13, 76-13=63

I still don't get it...

Spoiler:
The sum of all numbers 10-19 ends up being 9.
The sum of all numbers 20-29 ends up being 18.
The sum of all numbers 30-39 ends up being 27.
The sum of all numbers 40-49 ends up being 36.
The sum of all numbers 50-59 ends up being 45.
The sum of all numbers 60-69 ends up being 54.
The sum of all numbers 70-79 ends up being 63.
The sum of all numbers 80-89 ends up being 72.
The sum of all numbers 90-99 ends up being 81.

If you look at the chart right before the end, all of the above sums are the same symbol.

I've done it ten times now and I've had all the symbols come up at least once.

Spoiler: The symbols change every time you do it. What doesnt change is that all multiples of 9 have the same symbol.

yes. this is just a cheap trick. theres 1 or 2 numbers that don't work though.

I dont think so, I ran all numbers 10-99 through a unix script I wrote and all of the answers were multiple of 9's

I'm just dumb. That's all.
