regifting robin
rallain | August 18, 2009I got this question. How does this game work? Really, this is one of those silly things that gets forwarded a lot. It is called Regifting Robin. The basic idea is:
pick a 2 digit number, like 37
subtract both the number in the tens place and the number in the ones place from the original number
find the number you have left on a grid of "gifts" and robin will guess what your gift was
You may have seen stuff like this before and figured it out. It really isn't too bad as long as you know two things (one is a trick)
In a two digit number, like 37, the number is really 3*10 + 7*1. I know…
