In reply to Berry (msg # 196):

Berry gets a Cp.

Each claims that the other would say that the opposite door leads to certain death... make an IQ roll

"If one alway lies and one always tells the truth then the 'what door would he tell us to take' inverts it. So the truthteller truthfully states the door to death and the lier unthruthfully states the door to death. So we should take the other door that neither of them cite.." replies Amelia. "Look, I did listen to what you said, Berry, but I believe the basic premise that one alway lies and one always tells the truth remains intact, thus: the one (A) that said 'One of us only tells the truth' was referring to itself and was therefore lying. The second one (B) that said 'The other only lies' took the first statement as referring to him (B) and therefore was truthfully talking about the other on (A)." She huffs then continues, "Only one of them ansered my question, and said to tke the left hand door. If I'm correct, we must take the right hand door, being, incidentally, the right door. Now if the second suit ever ansered my question to is [OOC: msg #195] I predict that it would also cite the left hand door."

She gives a ten count for the right-most Armored Hulk to answer her question, failing which she confidently goes through the right door.

In reply to Amelia Montaigne (msg # 198):

"Clearly if it is true one lies and one tells the truth, then, as I asked at the start, we only need ask one what the other would say. Ten we know the answer we get will be a lie. But what if they were lying when they said one always lies and one always told the truth?"

Death is certain anyway, regardless of the door we choose. The matter of contention is the timing.

OOC:
No idea what that means.
Just checking, did the GM miss the second question from Amelia in msg #195 ?

Or did Amelia miss the answer? (in msg #???)

(TY! I must have missed it somehow.)

As they've both indicated the left door Amelia does open the right door but with more confidence.

Gareth will ask both of them what forms the certain death will take behind each door. In four separate distinct questions (2 each knight)

At left door...
To Knight 1: "How would I die if I went through this door?"
Wait for an answer.
To Knight 2: "How would I die if I went through this door?"
Wait for an answer.

Moving to the right door...
To Knight 1: "How would I die if I went through this door?"
Wait for an answer.
To Knight 2: "How would I die if I went through this door?"
Wait for an answer.
