Topic: Bitcoin Island Game ver 1.00 - Win 0.05 BTC - 25x winners Game Over (Read 7764 times)
i just picked 3.14, you had to guess that it was 3.14

pi is not 3.14, you should never use 3.14 as anything other than an estimate and you should never use estimates as answers to questions that don't say "estimate"
many people got it right without problems, its part of the puzzle, to find the correct pi/answer, through trial and error. expect more of these cases/situations in version 2.

-.- i thought it would be something like that, wasn't the radius 11.2?
pi * (2 * 11.2) = 70.371675440411
70.336 would be a radius of 11.1943221 or a pi of exactly 3.14, both of which are wrong
pi * (2 * 11.2) = 70.371675440411
70.336 would be a radius of 11.1943221 or a pi of exactly 3.14, both of which are wrong
3.14 x (2 x 11.20)
3.14 x 22.40 = 70.336
yes, I just used the easiest way, 2 decimal places, pi = 3.14

I think this game is an awesome idea. I can't seem to download it though. I think you should try make it a web game to get more people to play, but I'm impressed that you got a working game!
I removed the download link, no BTC remains to win. I will pm you when I launch version 2 of the game.

In the next version, try to make the game accept multiple answers. I didn't finish the game just because I entered the whole answer in P2 instead of what you wanted.
ok, thanks

This is why I got it wrong. I used the 'pi' calculator button

so what was the answer to p2?
Nice!
I am very curious what were the right answers for part3?
I am very curious what were the right answers for part3?
P1 , find M using Pythagoras' Theorem , answer = 5
P2 , pi(2 x R) , circumference , answer 70.336
P3 , "give and ye shall receive" answer = 35168 (multiply and abhor the period, and ye shall claim the treasure ! )
I'll try to make the next puzzle harder, with higher BTC prize (in version 2)
