Re: A hard liar/truthteller type puzzle
This has to revolve, in some way, around asking everyone what they themselves are.

Re: A hard liar/truthteller type puzzle
The fact that the spies can answer either way makes this really tough.

Re: A hard liar/truthteller type puzzle
i realize the problem is <font color="white">how do you really know who you can trust- all we know is that there are more knights than spies, and spies can obviously lie about another spies- but clearly the solution has to involve around figuring out just 1 person and then asking him on the rest </font>

Re: A hard liar/truthteller type puzzle
find any guy (Guy A). Ask him about another guy (Guy B) 10 times. If he answers the same way 10 times, hes gotta be a knight. Ask him about the rest of the guys.
If he answers differently any of the times, move on to some other guy and repeat the procedure. It would take a serious bad beat to not find a knight in this manner. "lil scruffer" on ftp.
