  • Throw two dice and multiply together the two numbers obtained. To this value, add the larger of the two dice numbers (if they are the same then, of course, either will do).
  • Count to the word that corresponds to the calculated total in the telegram (hyphenated words count as one word). Write this word down on a piece of paper in BLOCK CAPITALS.
  • I am going to try to divine your word. Click HERE to continue
