The dice game's system is real and you can get it on your first try

First person says something like "the first number is 1 and the second number is 2"

Second person says something like "the first number is 3 and the second number is 4"

SELECTION: Third person says something like "actually the numbers are the first person's second number and the second person's first number"

Therefore, in our example, the first number is 2 and the second number is 3

ADDITION: Fourth person says to add Alan's number to the first number and Colin's number to the second number. Wilson is the horizontal guy, Alan is the guy slumped over the barrel, Colin is the guy on the right who normally has his hand in his jacket. They're all holding up a number of fingers, let's say Alan is holding 3 and Colin is holding 1.

REPLACEMENT: Fifth person says something like "4s are 5s and 3s are 5s"

Let's do the system: first SELECTION, then REPLACEMENT, then ADDITION.

First number is 2. Add Alan's number, 3, which is now 5 because 3s are 5s. 2 plus 5 is 7 which means a 1 (dice maths wraparound: 7=1, 8=2, 9=3, 10=4, 11=5, 12=6)

Second number is 3, but actually 5 because 3s are 5s. Add Colin's number, 1. 5 plus 1 is 6, so the second number is 6

You say the first number is 1 and the second number is 6. It doesn't matter what the monkeys roll. If you got it right, the guy will say "Psyche!" and let you have the blankets.

I think I understood the system, but I keep getting wrong results.

First guy: 6 and 3
Second guy: 3 and 1
Third guy: First guy's second number (3) and second guy's second number (1)

Alan: 4
Colin: 5
6s are 3s and 3s are 1s (Making the selection 1 and 1)

So:
The first number would be 3+4, but 3 is replaced with 1. First number should be a 5.
No relevant replacement for the second number, it's 1+5. Second number should be a 6.

Actual result: 6 and 4. Why?

Edit: Ah nevermind, I tried three times and then got the dialogue. Got me there.

I didn't notice the drunks holding their fingers up, I kept trying to find numbers on their paintings

Thanks for the explanation, I was confused by what the guys were saying. I still don't really understand the "except in the final answer" part, though. He said all the 4s are 1s, and according to the calculations, it was supposed to be two 4s. Well, the substitution isn't supposed to apply in the final answer, right? So I said 4 and 4. The result was 1 and 1, and the guy said "psyche". Idk if I got it right or if this just happens after you fail enough times, lol

Disregard the monkeys, the guy saying "Psych!" is what confirms you were right.

"Except in the final answer" means that if you end up with an answer that's one of the replacement numbers, don't do the replacement on your own answer. If your answers are 1 and 6 and you've been told "6s are 4s", you should still answer 1 and 6, not 1 and 4.

Colin has a half of a pinky finger. No idea if that counts

Jesus, could Joe have made this more annoying to figure out?

Can they make it so I can skip this damn minigame?

Here's how it went
First person calls 6 and 3. Second person calls 5 and 4
Third person eliminates the second guess of the second person. Fourth person eliminates the the second guess of the first person.
Alan holds up 1 finger. Colin holds up 2 fingers.
6s are 1s and 1s are 1s.

I did the math. My guess was 2 and 1.

The answer? 1 and 2.

That's as close as I got in multiple tries and I STILL GOT IT WRONG!!! I miss the sword. I want to cut these gamblers down to size.
