It says your not supposed to tell anyone if you work it out, nontheless heres a hint:
plot the values on a graph (Total on x axis, result on y axis) and pick up a Mathematical Methods textbook, who'da thought school could actually be useful for something?

When you die, if you get a choice between going to regular heaven or pie heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick, but if it's not, mmmmmmm, boy

HAHA! Graph it? That is stupid. Spending hours on it? Quite possible. This thing is easy to some people, impossible to others. It all depends on the way you think. Here is the reason you are having trouble: Stop thinking about it so mathmatically. And listen to Haze, he has got it.

You're an idiot. You just ruined it for everyone who would want to try.

Ha, yeah I've played something like this before. It's also known as "Polar bears around an Ice Hole," if that helps.
