Quote from: Toxteth;319082Cheers guys!
 
The theory behind this is that people should be attracted to the rectangle containing the golden ratio (1:1.618), the golden ratio is meant to be found everywhere in nature and is supposed to be subconsciously more attractive to humans that other ratios and so people use it in art, design and architecture.
 
The rectangle you were supposed to be attracted to was 6, and 1 was 2nd closest. The results were quite interesting, the majority of people did actually choose number 6. (some of it is complete bull though)

Thats what I said :narnar:
 
So what do I win? :norty:
​ Bring on the randomness!
Apparently I actually exist! Or maybe it was the drink?

Quote from: Gorion;319101Interesting.

Sounds awfully similar to the fibonacci sequence/spiral.

It's all part of the same theory :)
