There's another solution. If you just tell the group to NOT come back if they find the exit (regardless of how you split it up), you could just notice who never came back when you return and go down their path. This works because you said the possessed members only have their "communication" hampered, their actual actions (Like, leaving the cave), are supposedly kept in tact.
My thought process is that the two liars actions are not influenced by the curse, only their "communication". I am trying to override this issue by turning an action into an inadvertent communication.
Cucas 360 I don't think the way mentioned in the video is guaranteed if there is a trap in one of the tunnels. I don't think that variable was accounted for. Maybe I'm wrong.
+Cucas 360 In fact, now that I think about it, the method in the video does NOT work if there is a trap in one of the paths. The criteria for solving this riddle was "ensure you ALL escape". If there's a trap and any of them dies, then not everyone escapes.
that was also my solution. Discard one of the doors, make 3 groups of 3 persons, if any of the groups finds the correct one they should go and wait outside as a signal. If all of them return, they should all take the fourth tunnel.
Yeah but then two students might suicide by not coming back. Or two might come back from different tunnels. Not coming back when it isn't the exit or coming back when it is would be the equivalent of lying. So as long as u go one two three three, this would work, but two students might die.
Another solution would be to agree that the group which finds the exit just walks out, then the rest can see which path no one came back from since he said "the curse ONLY affects their communication" therefore not their movement
here's my answer: as you know you're not cursed, you stay in the middle and you don't move. As the curse only affects your communication and not what you do, you tell everyone that if they find the exit, they leave. You divide the groups into 3, 3 and 2 and wait for all the groups to come back and you go down the path that the group which didn't return went down. This way everyone is saved
@@nqh4393 from what i perceive from the video and see from reading other comments, other people don't know about the curse it's only you. Plus, we're the leaders of the expedition! they'll trust us for sure :)
I guess there is an easier way: As the curse only affects the communication the lead the leader can split the group in 2,3,3 and ask them to find the exit. And tell them that the group which finds the exit has to make 1 person stay at the exit and the rest should come back. In this way the group which has the missing person has found the correct exit.
Or... since the curse only affects communication, tell whichever group that finds the exit to not return. And afterward just go to the tunnel without returning people?
ion ion you have to be within a group or you won't be trusted. There are four options and nine people, so yes, one tunnel is unexplored, and if a group has two liers that return, the thirs in group leaves and that tells everyone there's the exit.
Lesson learned: actually pay attention to who bumps into something or you won’t be able to trust anyone but you. Also keep a map. Plot twist: someone remembered the way, but they were cursed. If you asked them again they would say I did
There seem to be an awful lot of people asking what happens if both possessed students are in a trio and both lie. If that's the case then that trio will give an inconsistent answer, so that will account for at least one of the possessed students, meaning that both other groups will have at least one student that isn't possessed and will therefore tell the truth, and as those groups' answers will be consistent you therefore know that they're telling the truth
Basically, if one trio argues but others are consistent, both cursed would be in the trio. If only one cursed was in the trio, another group would argue, in which case you can just trust the majority.
I was thinking that you can have everyone go their seperate ways but they MUST bring something from the outside of they made it outside, and it must be exclusive to only outside, so when we meet up, if one person from a group has something from the outside then I know that they aren't cursed. But if a group has none they found the altar.
I was thinking like what if you split into three and then tell them that if they find the exit, don't go back. So if 2 groups go back, we know that the path the other group took was the exit. And then if all groups go back, then the path you all didnt take is the exit.
What if the professor was cursed ? How would I trust him as a student ? Hence, this solution too, from a student's perspective, has a probability of success equal to 7/9 (The chance professor is not cursed).
My dad came up with another solution: As there are 9 of us in total, 3 go into each door (you also go into one with other 2 poeple) and the last door you can know through the process of elimination.
This won't work though. The cursed students may lie only sometimes, so we have no idea whether they are lying or telling the truth at any given time. If only one student of either trio is arguing with the other two, does this mean that: a) he is cursed and is lying, while the other two students from the trio are telling the truth (and the other cursed is in a different group) OR, b) he is not cursed, is telling the truth and the other two from the same trio are the cursed, paired together and lying? It would be impossible to determine and we would have two doors to eliminate, which means our chance of survival would be 50 / 50. (Which is easily solved if we pair together the two students from our own trio and we go alone.)
+boy638 I'm sure they can. I solved it in less than 3 minutes. They are at a temple, so I'm guessing they are smarter than me. The 20 minutes time for using the exit path was for a "fast pace". This is a life or death situation. They will run like race horses.
Common questions and suggestions in the comments: 1. What if the two possessed ones are in a trio and they both lie? 2. What if one lies and the other tells the truth? 3. How do the others know that you aren't lying? 4. Just ask them a simple question repeatedly until two answer incorrectly. 5. Just tell whoever finds the exit not to come back. Answers: 1 and 2. In either of these scenarios, only one group will give an inconsistent answer, so both others must be telling the truth. Any group giving an inconsistent answer must have at least one person lying, so both other groups must have at least one person telling the truth, so if only one group gives an inconsistent answer then the two giving consistent ones must be truthful. Remember, you only need reliable answers from two of the groups, as you can work out the other by process of elimination. 3. The most likely explanation is that you were the only one that saw the inscription and so the others don't know about the curse to begin with. 4. Theoretically, the possessed students could always tell the truth, so you could be there forever. 5. Must admit it took me a while to work out why this wouldn't work. Anyway, it says that the curse affects their communication, but communication can be non verbal, so would include things like this. The possessed students could 'lie' by not returning if they don't find the exit or returning if they do
Split them into 1(you)-4-4 or 2-2-2-3 or 2-3-4 and tell your students if you find the exit only one should come back, the other(s) stay outside, as the curse affects only communication and not survival instincts this will work without all that thinking :)
I was thinking you could just send 3 groups of 3 down three of the unknown paths. Tell the students that if they find the exit, just go out and don't come back. If when you arrive back in the center all or part of a group is missing..the path they took is the exit. If everyone is present, the unexplored path is the exit.
+Ravinian That wouldn't work because the cursed person could just stand at the end of the dead end path and now you wouldn't believe the people returning that it it was a dead end.
That won't work because you don't know if the possessed will lie or not for example if a group of three come back and one group is arguing you will assume that the 2 who agree are both the possessed where as a possessed might be agreeing with a non possessed
@@ngjon but couldn't you change your anwser (in a sarcastic tone of course) if that happens so you could signal the other groups that you were right and that they are the liars, because there would be no reason for a second person to change their anwser, and that the ones possessed can only lie or tell the truth so they shouldn't be able to think of something like that (hope that made sense)
@ngjon in short, once you have 2 contradictions, you can deduce everything else from there. In the absolute worst case, if you only have 1 contradiction, re-ask all groups until you find the 2nd.
A lot of people are STILL suggesting three groups of three, so let me explain yet AGAIN why that wouldn't work: The possessed students only MIGHT lie, so if only one group is split then you won't know whether there are two people lying in it or only one, meaning that there will be two pathways you're not certain about - that one and the unexplored one
You could also divide all groups into 3, including the trio you're in, and leave 1 path unexplored. This would create the same concept of answering with confidence for the students. If none of the explored paths show up as the exit, you know it's the unexplored path.
@@idontknowmuch3441 Because if one group came back split then you wouldn't know how many people in it were lying, which would leave two paths uncertain - that one and the unexplored one
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz There is no way for a group to be split. There is always going to be two people saying one thing in a trio. If no other trio is disagreeing then listen to the single. If not then listen to the two people.
If you don't mention the curse, it won't be a problem. Just assume the role of leader, split the groups of people into 3 and 2, and send them off, telling them to report back whether it is the exit or not. Of course, it's no guarantee, but people in a panic tend to divert responsibility to somebody else in dangerous situations (To avoid the risk of it being their fault if anyone dies), especially if there is someone willing to be a leader.
no because im pretty sure you were the only one to see the cursed sign, or atleast that was shown in the video. so no one else would know about the curse and accuse u of being possessed. if im right lol
You are the only one who knows of the curse. The 2 guys who were infected would have no idea about the curse. Only communication is affected by green gas. Not that they are possessed and want every one to die in there.So they have no reason not to trust you going alone.
One other thing you could do is just tell each group “If you find the exit don’t come back.” If the curse only affects communication it wouldn’t force the possessed to come back in and then everyone just takes the path that did not have a returning group (as long as you keep track of who went where). While there is a risk that something could happen to keep multiple groups from returning, that could still happen in any scenario anyway so the risk is not much different.
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz It works just fine If you sent 3 people to the exit and only 2 or 1 came back, that means they found the exit And if all groups dint found the exit, you know what the Duo os the cursed one, so you can go where they went just fine
Couldn't you just tell the people who find the exit to escape? Then when you all came back the people who didn't come back would let you know that they escaped and that that's the right path.
What if those two cursed students got paired together and came back saying they didn't find the exit. Or one of them was cursed and lying and the other one was telling the truth but u wouldn't know! Then u would have wasted time and probably none of you would make it out. Just my thought but that was pretty clever though😋
Miss Panda! The thing is this is a theoretical problem so everything is exact. Your always running at the same pace and no one is too scared and it isn't realistic. It is like a math problem.For example "Jeremy has 679 watermelons he sells 403 how many does he have left?" In a math problem it's 276 but in real life it is Why the fuck does he have 679 watermelons
+Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky My first hypothesis was 3 3 2 and i spent 10 minutes try to figure out why it was wrong, i was convince there was some kind of smart way of doing it wright. I give, and press play, thinking i was missing something in the riddle.
I think there are three solutions to this problem. The first, obviously, is above, but I think there are two more: 1) Split into three groups of three and try three of the four paths. Tell them if they find an exit, go ahead and escape. If everyone returns, the exit must be path no one checked. Since three people are in each group, at least one person would escape if he found an exit, regardless of who he's paired with. If fewer than 9 people return, you know one of the explored paths is the exit. You can safely take the path fewer than 3 people returned on. If three are missing, all three were not cursed. If two are missing, then one was cursed and decided to to return to deceive the others, and you can ignore his testimony. If only one is missing, the two that returned are cursed, and you can ignore their testimony. 2) Split into three groups of three and try three of the four paths. When everyone returns, if there are two disagreements, then the cursed individuals are in two different groups and you can side with the majority in every case. If the majority of one group found an exit, take that path If the the majority in all three groups failed to find an exit, take the unexplored path. If there is only one disagreement, then both cursed individuals are in the same group, and you should side with the minority. If either one of the two consensus groups or the one minority found an exit, take that path. If they didn't, take the unexplored path. Edit: I acknowledge the fault in my second solution below.
Scott Simmons 1) if only one returns you can't know whether the other two are telling the truth. So if they say, it's the wrong path, they could either be lying and the third one escaped or they are telling the truth and the third one is cursed.
Julia Hörmayer Sure, I don't know if they're telling the truth, but I don't need to know. I know that one didn't return, and that shows that this path is the exit. If it weren't the exit, then all three would return. He says that the curse only affects their communication--that is, they would lie. It does seem that the problem assumes that they would do as they're told. However, if we allow that the cursed ones may hide to trick the others and deceive them, then I think we're still okay. If one returns and says "There's no exit on this path the other two are hiding," then if true, everyone else who returned would agree with the others in their respective groups, and we could safely identify the two who didn't return as cursed. If two return and say, "There's no exit on this path, the third is hiding," then if true, there would be at most one disagreement, and the truth tellers would be in the majority. In effect, that altered scenario 1 becomes almost identical to my scenario 2. The difference would be there are two ways to deceive--either by returning and lying or hiding.
Scott Simmons You're right I forgot about the part where it affects only the communication. If it wouldn't though and one would come back and say that the other two in his group were hiding, he could also be lying.
Julia Hörmayer Yes, but now you have me rethinking my #2. Since it's possible one cursed person might decide to tell the truth, if there is only one disagreement, it could be that both cursed people are in the same group, or it could be that one cursed one is in that group and the other is telling the truth in a different group. If that's the case, then we would need to side with the majority, even if there's only one disagreement. I think I may need to retract my second solution. If there's only one disagreement, I'm not sure you could determine what the truth is, since only 3 of the 4 options were explored.
the Problem with testing 3 doors is you Need 3 sure "truths" (true sayings about a passage). if there´s a disagreement in just one of the gr.of 3 you never know if there´s 2 liars or just 1. i´ve tried such poss. too, but you Need 3 sure truths in any way wich leaves you at Groups of three or five and above and yourself for any door you wanna check if you wanna afford the possibility of a lie. Going with the others still gives you a poss of a lie only checking 3 doors wich leaves you at at best 2 sure truths with the System ( you might fall on 3 sure truths in a given case but the System doesn´t assure you of that)
@@want-diversecontent3887 Pie Plays "Less than one hour left" "20 minutes to explore 20 minutes to report back 20 minutes to escape" yeah 20 + 20 + 20 = 60 my god if you have less than an hour even if you remember this explain it instantly have everyone go along without hesitation you still lose. Because if t is time left and time to escape is 60. and t < 60 then you always die. Because you CAN'T escape in time have time for 2.* tunnels which is less than 3.

This was super easy... I thought there was a trick I was missing (such as there needs to be 2 people minimum in a group). But yeah it was simple. Some of others in series are MUCH harder.
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz they would not be able to be truthful to foil the plan, because they are always paired with at least one truth teller. They could only tell the truth, or lie and be outed
I’ve seen a couple saying that you should follow the path of whichever group doesn’t return, but reasonably you can’t be sure if the group didn’t return because they found the exit, or because they died. If you tell each group to leave just one student outside if they find the exit, you can immediately tell which way to go (and that it is safe) even IF the liar is in that group. Even if the liar claims one person in the group is missing because they died, the absence of anyone missing from any other groups proves that is a lie. The only way you’d have trouble is if someone from another group really does die, and the liars are able to manipulate the rest of the group into heading down an unsafe path… but this is all adding another element into a riddle which doesn’t really need that.
But, wait. What if the ones who find the exit simply don't come back? Then you wouldn't have to worry about lying, because only those who returned didn't find the exit.
This method doesn't work because returning or not returning is a form of communication, and hence could be "lied" about. If you think communication only affect speech lying than let me ask you this. Why not have one person go down each path (left overs just chill out in the center and rest) and then return. If you have found the exit simply raise your hand. Then only one person raises there hand and presto, you are free. Is this acceptable? I don't think so.
3 groups of 3 doesn't work. Yes, you'd know what's at the end of the passageway you went through, and if both groups disagree you can count on the majority, but if only one group has a disagreement then you have a problem. The liars don't necessarily lie, that's the catch. They could either both be in one group and both lying, or split between them- in that case one of them could be telling the truth. Knowing that, you can't count on either group.
+Lan Des It does work even if one tells the truth. If everyone else says their path is wrong and only one group is arguing then you know thats the right one no?
In that case you'd still have a problem, because remember, the choice to split off into 3 groups instead of 4 was predicated on the assumption that we could go about it by elimination: If it's none of the 3 then the 4th must be it. But if you see a group arguing it means that there could be either 1 or 2 liars in that group. So that leaves you two tunnels to choose from.
Lan Des But you eliminate the path that you took by yourself no?( assuming its a dead end) that leaves only 3 possible tunnels that lead to escape. each with 2, 3, 3 people respectively so if the other two groups say "dead end" and one is arguing then thats the right one, if one group of 3 says "this is the right one" then it must be the right one if you see 1 group arguing then you look to the other 2 am I missing something ?
Tommy Thai You need to realize that cursed ones don't have to lie. So if both cursed ones are in same group, and lets say they found way out and come back to save others. 1 cursed choose to talk true and 1 choose to lie, so ther's 2 telling that "we found way out" and 1 is arguing. If you automaticly think that 2 must be lying because you they are arguing, you end up believing the 1 guy who was telling lies in a first place. So going into 3x3 groups wont work because you can't be sure if one group is lying or telling truth, and you got that unknown path too left.
It's a logic puzzle, so stuff like that can be ignored. Perhaps it could be explained by saying the inscriptions you were reading were far away from the treasure, so the students know that you were too far away from treasure to get affected by the curse. It really doesn't matter. In these kinds of puzzles, you're supposed to have full control over the situation anyway.
As I am a Stargate SG1 fan, my automatic reply is - cause you're Teal'c. Jonas Quinn: "First time possessed by a Goa'uld System Lord" Though "you were far enough from the altar" works too.
According to the setup, the leader (you) can also be infected with the smoke. You should split into groups of 3, and leave one path unexplored. There are only two possible outcomes when the groups return. In Scenario 1 there is conflict in only one group, which means that both liars must be in that group, and the correct path is either a) the one they took (if the two liars are saying it's the wrong path) or b) the unexplored path (if the two liars are saying the path they took is the right path). In Scenario 2 there is conflict in two groups, which means there is one liar in each group of three, and the majority will be correct.
NO! NO! NO! How many more times? The possessed students only MIGHT lie, so that method doesn't work! If there's only one conflict then one possessed student could be lying and the other telling the truth
but if there is two liars in the same group, there will be only one person saying the truth, right? since the other groups all are honest, they wont be disagreeing within their own group. ir there's one liar, there will be two groups disagreeing with each other. so you can still tell where the liars are.
Say we used your method, what if both liars went into one trio, none of the trios found the exit, which is a 25% chance, but both liars said they'd found the exit? The two trios consisting of truthful people would say they hadn't found it, so you'd follow the trio where the majority said they had, and you'd go down their path and find a dead end. We're looking for a solution that works 100% of the time, and yours is not it.
+Luke Davies not true bc if the group with the two possessed people said that it is an exit then you would know that that group had two of the possessed people because otherwise one would be in another group arguing with that trio
0:42 says that you have LESS than an hour. The video later states that if you go at a fast pace it will take you 20 minutes. So even if you assume that nobody gets tired from moving at the fast pace, they will likely not be able to go any faster. This means that since there is LESS than an hour left, they will not make it in time no matter what. Also, this theory doesn't even assume the fact that they will need at least a minute to figure out that some are possessed and develop a reasonable plan.
i didn't think about the fact that they would argue, and just i just firgured i could send 3 people down 3 hallways, and if none of them are the exit, the one that went unexplored must be it.

Yeah but then two students might suicide by not coming back. Or two might come back from different tunnels. Not coming back when it isn't the exit or coming back when it is would be the equivalent of lying. So as long as u go one two three three, this would work, but two students might die.

I guess there is an easier way:
As the curse only affects the communication the lead the leader can split the group in 2,3,3 and ask them to find the exit. And tell them that the group which finds the exit has to make 1 person stay at the exit and the rest should come back. In this way the group which has the missing person has found the correct exit.

Its correct but not exactly easier
Or... since the curse only affects communication, tell whichever group that finds the exit to not return. And afterward just go to the tunnel without returning people?

I see this green eyes joke everyone but i dont get it, where is it from
“Don’t worry about the possessed students attacking or otherwise harming other students”
Like this is actually happening in real life
What he means is don't factor that into the equation. He's not telling you that you shouldn't be anxious about it.
Nuh uh this happened to my buddy Ed last year
Lesson learned: actually pay attention to who bumps into something or you won’t be able to trust anyone but you.
Also keep a map.
Plot twist: someone remembered the way, but they were cursed. If you asked them again they would say I did
Plot twist:
You yourself get possesed and the whole group dies.
Yes.
Plot twist:they just had to ask the spirits to leave because they all had green eyes
Look up cross examined
how did you not SEE who was possessed?
Michelle Vanessen
its a smoke + they only have torch to lit up the place + the building was quaking
Rowlet 01 I wonder how they did not notice GREEN smoke
Theyre all blue
Michelle Vanessen everyone's except you is an identical twin,otherwise i cant explain why you cant tell who's cursed.
They were possessed as you studied the inscriptions.
Well, you could just tell them not to return if they find the exit.
You said it only affects COMMUNICATION. This is MOVEMENT.
Returning studemts might lie about not finding the exit when they actually did
One Day I'll die The returning students will never find the exit if they do as he says and the curse only affects communication so they will.

Next riddle: Find out who's arm got cut off.
There seem to be an awful lot of people asking what happens if both possessed students are in a trio and both lie. If that's the case then that trio will give an inconsistent answer, so that will account for at least one of the possessed students, meaning that both other groups will have at least one student that isn't possessed and will therefore tell the truth, and as those groups' answers will be consistent you therefore know that they're telling the truth
Good explanation. That's a long sentence there btw.
Basically, if one trio argues but others are consistent, both cursed would be in the trio.
If only one cursed was in the trio, another group would argue, in which case you can just trust the majority.
@@CCABPSacsach You're forgetting that the possessed ones only MIGHT lie, but the rest is correct
I love these riddles. Never stop doing them.
I was thinking that you can have everyone go their seperate ways but they MUST bring something from the outside of they made it outside, and it must be exclusive to only outside, so when we meet up, if one person from a group has something from the outside then I know that they aren't cursed. But if a group has none they found the altar.
Was my thought as well
I love this idea they could grab a flower or grass
@@rigidkiwilll1668 yeah
They are cursed and has the powers to create anything u said them to bring from outside 😢
I was thinking like what if you split into three and then tell them that if they find the exit, don't go back. So if 2 groups go back, we know that the path the other group took was the exit. And then if all groups go back, then the path you all didnt take is the exit.
The curse be like:
There are two imposters among us

You know what to do: 3:30
Terrible joke
"don't worry about the possessed students attacking or otherwise harming the others. This curse only affects their communication." WORDS CAN HURT TOO
“The first thing to realize is that since you know you aren’t possessed,”
Me: well yes, but actually no.
You know you aren’t because YOU WERE READING THE INSCRIPTIONS
What if I was the one possessed?
What if the professor was cursed ?
How would I trust him as a student ?
Hence, this solution too, from a student's perspective, has a probability of success equal to 7/9 (The chance professor is not cursed).

@@want-diversecontent3887 Plot twist ! Lara Croft in disguise !
My dad came up with another solution: As there are 9 of us in total, 3 go into each door (you also go into one with other 2 poeple) and the last door you can know through the process of elimination.
So many lazy people
This won't work though.
The cursed students may lie only sometimes, so we have no idea whether they are lying or telling the truth at any given time. If only one student of either trio is arguing with the other two, does this mean that:
a) he is cursed and is lying, while the other two students from the trio are telling the truth (and the other cursed is in a different group) OR,
b) he is not cursed, is telling the truth and the other two from the same trio are the cursed, paired together and lying?
It would be impossible to determine and we would have two doors to eliminate, which means our chance of survival would be 50 / 50. (Which is easily solved if we pair together the two students from our own trio and we go alone.)

Common questions and suggestions in the comments:
1. What if the two possessed ones are in a trio and they both lie?
2. What if one lies and the other tells the truth?
3. How do the others know that you aren't lying?
4. Just ask them a simple question repeatedly until two answer incorrectly.
5. Just tell whoever finds the exit not to come back.
Answers:
1 and 2. In either of these scenarios, only one group will give an inconsistent answer, so both others must be telling the truth. Any group giving an inconsistent answer must have at least one person lying, so both other groups must have at least one person telling the truth, so if only one group gives an inconsistent answer then the two giving consistent ones must be truthful. Remember, you only need reliable answers from two of the groups, as you can work out the other by process of elimination.
3. The most likely explanation is that you were the only one that saw the inscription and so the others don't know about the curse to begin with.
4. Theoretically, the possessed students could always tell the truth, so you could be there forever.
5. Must admit it took me a while to work out why this wouldn't work. Anyway, it says that the curse affects their communication, but communication can be non verbal, so would include things like this. The possessed students could 'lie' by not returning if they don't find the exit or returning if they do
Dude smarter than Ted Ed

Thank you! I was wondering about the first one

Split them into 1(you)-4-4 or 2-2-2-3 or 2-3-4 and tell your students if you find the exit only one should come back, the other(s) stay outside, as the curse affects only communication and not survival instincts this will work without all that thinking :)
I was thinking you could just send 3 groups of 3 down three of the unknown paths. Tell the students that if they find the exit, just go out and don't come back. If when you arrive back in the center all or part of a group is missing..the path they took is the exit. If everyone is present, the unexplored path is the exit.
Nice
+Ravinian That's exactly what I came up with.
+Ravinian that actually makes a lot of sense
That's pretty smart
+Ravinian That wouldn't work because the cursed person could just stand at the end of the dead end path and now you wouldn't believe the people returning that it it was a dead end.
My thought was that u divide into 3 groups of 3 people and then u r sure that 2 cursed wont be alone
If noone found the exit is in the unknown path
That won't work because you don't know if the possessed will lie or not for example if a group of three come back and one group is arguing you will assume that the 2 who agree are both the possessed where as a possessed might be agreeing with a non possessed
@@ngjon but couldn't you change your anwser (in a sarcastic tone of course) if that happens so you could signal the other groups that you were right and that they are the liars, because there would be no reason for a second person to change their anwser, and that the ones possessed can only lie or tell the truth so they shouldn't be able to think of something like that (hope that made sense)
NGJon that’s a good point
@ngjon in short, once you have 2 contradictions, you can deduce everything else from there. In the absolute worst case, if you only have 1 contradiction, re-ask all groups until you find the 2nd.
Wait what if the exit is in the one without people and the cursed people are in a trio, then they both lie, so u trust them
A lot of people are STILL suggesting three groups of three, so let me explain yet AGAIN why that wouldn't work:
The possessed students only MIGHT lie, so if only one group is split then you won't know whether there are two people lying in it or only one, meaning that there will be two pathways you're not certain about - that one and the unexplored one

You could also divide all groups into 3, including the trio you're in, and leave 1 path unexplored. This would create the same concept of answering with confidence for the students. If none of the explored paths show up as the exit, you know it's the unexplored path.
No you can't - I've explained PLENTY of times why that wouldn't work!
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz why
@@idontknowmuch3441 Because if one group came back split then you wouldn't know how many people in it were lying, which would leave two paths uncertain - that one and the unexplored one
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz There is no way for a group to be split. There is always going to be two people saying one thing in a trio. If no other trio is disagreeing then listen to the single. If not then listen to the two people.

Same.
5 years is old mate
Yeah this one was kinda creepy lol
The problem is that your other group members won't trust you to go explore alone.
If you don't mention the curse, it won't be a problem. Just assume the role of leader, split the groups of people into 3 and 2, and send them off, telling them to report back whether it is the exit or not. Of course, it's no guarantee, but people in a panic tend to divert responsibility to somebody else in dangerous situations (To avoid the risk of it being their fault if anyone dies), especially if there is someone willing to be a leader.
+Ryan Jewell What if the you meant all of you?
yeap, if you where the one bewitched
no because im pretty sure you were the only one to see the cursed sign, or atleast that was shown in the video. so no one else would know about the curse and accuse u of being possessed. if im right lol
You are the only one who knows of the curse. The 2 guys who were infected would have no idea about the curse. Only communication is affected by green gas. Not that they are possessed and want every one to die in there.So they have no reason not to trust you going alone.
"None of this matters if you're lucky enough to find the exit yourself."
So long students, good luck!
One other thing you could do is just tell each group “If you find the exit don’t come back.” If the curse only affects communication it wouldn’t force the possessed to come back in and then everyone just takes the path that did not have a returning group (as long as you keep track of who went where). While there is a risk that something could happen to keep multiple groups from returning, that could still happen in any scenario anyway so the risk is not much different.
Communication can be non verbal, so would include things like that
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz But that would kinda tell who the cursed was then, since its only the cursed coming back
@@thebrazillianguytm2186 Not necessarily
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz It works just fine
If you sent 3 people to the exit and only 2 or 1 came back, that means they found the exit
And if all groups dint found the exit, you know what the Duo os the cursed one, so you can go where they went just fine
@@thebrazillianguytm2186 Not necessarily. The ones that didn't come back could be cursed and not found the exit
Couldn't you just tell the people who find the exit to escape? Then when you all came back the people who didn't come back would let you know that they escaped and that that's the right path.
But if the liars were the ones who found the exit they could come back and say they didn't find the exit
they only lie when communicating, therefore they wouldn't come back.
But if everyone else said they didnt then you can know they are the two cursed ones because you know you aren't currsed
What if those two cursed students got paired together and came back saying they didn't find the exit. Or one of them was cursed and lying and the other one was telling the truth but u wouldn't know! Then u would have wasted time and probably none of you would make it out. Just my thought but that was pretty clever though😋
Miss Panda! The thing is this is a theoretical problem so everything is exact. Your always running at the same pace and no one is too scared and it isn't realistic. It is like a math problem.For example "Jeremy has 679 watermelons he sells 403 how many does he have left?" In a math problem it's 276 but in real life it is Why the fuck does he have 679 watermelons

If I found the exit I'm wouldn't be coming back
I said the exact same thing
and im distracted by their fingers
Call up the dean and tell him I need more grad students. Yes, again!
I think there are three solutions to this problem. The first, obviously, is above, but I think there are two more:
1) Split into three groups of three and try three of the four paths. Tell them if they find an exit, go ahead and escape. If everyone returns, the exit must be path no one checked. Since three people are in each group, at least one person would escape if he found an exit, regardless of who he's paired with. If fewer than 9 people return, you know one of the explored paths is the exit. You can safely take the path fewer than 3 people returned on. If three are missing, all three were not cursed. If two are missing, then one was cursed and decided to to return to deceive the others, and you can ignore his testimony. If only one is missing, the two that returned are cursed, and you can ignore their testimony.
2) Split into three groups of three and try three of the four paths. When everyone returns, if there are two disagreements, then the cursed individuals are in two different groups and you can side with the majority in every case. If the majority of one group found an exit, take that path If the the majority in all three groups failed to find an exit, take the unexplored path. If there is only one disagreement, then both cursed individuals are in the same group, and you should side with the minority. If either one of the two consensus groups or the one minority found an exit, take that path. If they didn't, take the unexplored path.
Edit: I acknowledge the fault in my second solution below.
Scott Simmons 1) if only one returns you can't know whether the other two are telling the truth. So if they say, it's the wrong path, they could either be lying and the third one escaped or they are telling the truth and the third one is cursed.
I think you forgot that they could also be telling the truth.
Julia Hörmayer Sure, I don't know if they're telling the truth, but I don't need to know. I know that one didn't return, and that shows that this path is the exit. If it weren't the exit, then all three would return. He says that the curse only affects their communication--that is, they would lie. It does seem that the problem assumes that they would do as they're told.
However, if we allow that the cursed ones may hide to trick the others and deceive them, then I think we're still okay. If one returns and says "There's no exit on this path the other two are hiding," then if true, everyone else who returned would agree with the others in their respective groups, and we could safely identify the two who didn't return as cursed. If two return and say, "There's no exit on this path, the third is hiding," then if true, there would be at most one disagreement, and the truth tellers would be in the majority. In effect, that altered scenario 1 becomes almost identical to my scenario 2. The difference would be there are two ways to deceive--either by returning and lying or hiding.
Scott Simmons You're right I forgot about the part where it affects only the communication.
If it wouldn't though and one would come back and say that the other two in his group were hiding, he could also be lying.
Julia Hörmayer Yes, but now you have me rethinking my #2. Since it's possible one cursed person might decide to tell the truth, if there is only one disagreement, it could be that both cursed people are in the same group, or it could be that one cursed one is in that group and the other is telling the truth in a different group. If that's the case, then we would need to side with the majority, even if there's only one disagreement. I think I may need to retract my second solution. If there's only one disagreement, I'm not sure you could determine what the truth is, since only 3 of the 4 options were explored.
What if the other students think you're the possesed one and want to go with you to make sure you aren't lying?
they dont know about the possession
In which case you can just leave them there to rot in hell for all you care...
you go with the group of two, do the same thing and then use process of elimination to figure out the forth tunnel
the Problem with testing 3 doors is you Need 3 sure "truths" (true sayings about a passage). if there´s a disagreement in just one of the gr.of 3 you never know if there´s 2 liars or just 1. i´ve tried such poss. too, but you Need 3 sure truths in any way wich leaves you at Groups of three or five and above and yourself for any door you wanna check if you wanna afford the possibility of a lie. Going with the others still gives you a poss of a lie only checking 3 doors wich leaves you at at best 2 sure truths with the System ( you might fall on 3 sure truths in a given case but the System doesn´t assure you of that)

Asking the real questions
I’ve seen a couple saying that you should follow the path of whichever group doesn’t return, but reasonably you can’t be sure if the group didn’t return because they found the exit, or because they died.
If you tell each group to leave just one student outside if they find the exit, you can immediately tell which way to go (and that it is safe) even IF the liar is in that group.
Even if the liar claims one person in the group is missing because they died, the absence of anyone missing from any other groups proves that is a lie.
The only way you’d have trouble is if someone from another group really does die, and the liars are able to manipulate the rest of the group into heading down an unsafe path… but this is all adding another element into a riddle which doesn’t really need that.
You’re supposed to assume no one dies that’s why he included the thing bout none of the cursed attacking or killing anyone but I don’t know much
What if there is no exit and the liar decides to stay back? The truthful guy has to return but the majority won't believe him.
But, wait. What if the ones who find the exit simply don't come back? Then you wouldn't have to worry about lying, because only those who returned didn't find the exit.
i agree,, seems logical
BEcause the liars might just sit in the tunnel if they're paired togeher
But the video specifically says that the curse ONLY affects their communication.
Jared Jensen
Oh yeah you're right... That's a stupid curse
This method doesn't work because returning or not returning is a form of communication, and hence could be "lied" about. If you think communication only affect speech lying than let me ask you this. Why not have one person go down each path (left overs just chill out in the center and rest) and then return. If you have found the exit simply raise your hand. Then only one person raises there hand and presto, you are free. Is this acceptable? I don't think so.
Trick question, the 4 minutes and 13 seconds you took to think about it destroyed the whole operation so everyone dies
3 groups of 3 doesn't work. Yes, you'd know what's at the end of the passageway you went through, and if both groups disagree you can count on the majority, but if only one group has a disagreement then you have a problem. The liars don't necessarily lie, that's the catch.
They could either both be in one group and both lying, or split between them- in that case one of them could be telling the truth. Knowing that, you can't count on either group.
Thanks for explaining why it doesn't work!
+Lan Des It does work even if one tells the truth. If everyone else says their path is wrong and only one group is arguing then you know thats the right one no?
In that case you'd still have a problem, because remember, the choice to split off into 3 groups instead of 4 was predicated on the assumption that we could go about it by elimination: If it's none of the 3 then the 4th must be it. But if you see a group arguing it means that there could be either 1 or 2 liars in that group. So that leaves you two tunnels to choose from.
Lan Des But you eliminate the path that you took by yourself no?( assuming its a dead end) that leaves only 3 possible tunnels that lead to escape. each with 2, 3, 3 people respectively
so if the other two groups say "dead end" and one is arguing then thats the right one,
if one group of 3 says "this is the right one" then it must be the right one
if you see 1 group arguing then you look to the other 2
am I missing something ?
+MedicEne
Oh, but that's not 3 groups of 3 then.
1 (you), 2, 3, 3 as demonstrated in the video, is actually the correct answer.
i like how 9 people went throught the tunnel but dont remeber where the exit was
Why am i red?
+Navindu Amarakoon `
Cause you be a native american
+Navindu Amarakoon You are wearing a red shirt.
+Navindu Amarakoon TRIGERRED!!
+tazydevil93 Indeed
+Navindu Amarakoon Because you're immune to green.
I figured out that solution, but the riddle is stupid. you don't trust them, but they will trust you? why would they send you alone?!
+Anon Iman
3 groups of 3 will solve this riddle and you won't be left alone either
+Anon Iman It says that you are the only one studying the inscriptions in the near darkness, the rest of the students dont know about the curse
+Tommy Thai 3x3 groups wont work.
Juhiss Care to prove it?
Tommy Thai You need to realize that cursed ones don't have to lie. So if both cursed ones are in same group, and lets say they found way out and come back to save others. 1 cursed choose to talk true and 1 choose to lie, so ther's 2 telling that "we found way out" and 1 is arguing. If you automaticly think that 2 must be lying because you they are arguing, you end up believing the 1 guy who was telling lies in a first place. So going into 3x3 groups wont work because you can't be sure if one group is lying or telling truth, and you got that unknown path too left.
Wait but hold up, YOU know you're not possessed. But you're friends don't. Why would they automatically believe you? That's not realistic.
It's a logic puzzle, so stuff like that can be ignored.
Perhaps it could be explained by saying the inscriptions you were reading were far away from the treasure, so the students know that you were too far away from treasure to get affected by the curse. It really doesn't matter. In these kinds of puzzles, you're supposed to have full control over the situation anyway.
*your friends - it's bad enough seeing people CONSTANTLY getting it wrong the other way round!
As I am a Stargate SG1 fan, my automatic reply is - cause you're Teal'c.
Jonas Quinn: "First time possessed by a Goa'uld System Lord"
Though "you were far enough from the altar" works too.
Jimmy Butler Its Because Your Red.... SCIENCE
Your the only one who saw the inscription.🤓🤓🤓
According to the setup, the leader (you) can also be infected with the smoke. You should split into groups of 3, and leave one path unexplored. There are only two possible outcomes when the groups return. In Scenario 1 there is conflict in only one group, which means that both liars must be in that group, and the correct path is either a) the one they took (if the two liars are saying it's the wrong path) or b) the unexplored path (if the two liars are saying the path they took is the right path). In Scenario 2 there is conflict in two groups, which means there is one liar in each group of three, and the majority will be correct.
NO! NO! NO! How many more times? The possessed students only MIGHT lie, so that method doesn't work! If there's only one conflict then one possessed student could be lying and the other telling the truth
Do these puzzle videos make anyone else anxious/nervous? Or am i just a wuss
Why not both?
same
+nemothefish heart stops every time I press play to see the solution and whether im right
+nemothefish just skip the build up, you get immersed into the story too easy :P
Bogs Binny This might sound weird, but it's not even to figure out. Riddles just freak me out lol.
"2 have been cursed"
*_Crewmate_*
*_there are 2 impostors among us_*
I SOLVED THE RIDDLE ON MY OWN! WHERE IS THE VACATION I HAVE BEEN PROMISED?
WHY YOU ALWAYS LYING
I did it too!
WHY ARE WE SHOUTING?
+nex LOLOLOlololoo
IJUSTCAMEHERE,WHYAREWESCREAMING!!?!!?!!
Nice puzzle. Solved it!
Everyone go in a trio into the three paths. If all three don't agree then go in the passage no one went into yet and all leave together
that was my solution too...
but if there is two liars in the same group, there will be only one person saying the truth, right?
since the other groups all are honest, they wont be disagreeing within their own group.
ir there's one liar, there will be two groups disagreeing with each other.
so you can still tell where the liars are.
Say we used your method, what if both liars went into one trio, none of the trios found the exit, which is a 25% chance, but both liars said they'd found the exit? The two trios consisting of truthful people would say they hadn't found it, so you'd follow the trio where the majority said they had, and you'd go down their path and find a dead end. We're looking for a solution that works 100% of the time, and yours is not it.
Luke Davies
shit... right... thanks! i didn't think of that...
+Luke Davies not true bc if the group with the two possessed people said that it is an exit then you would know that that group had two of the possessed people because otherwise one would be in another group arguing with that trio
YES I FIGURE THIS OUT!!!!!!!
after watching the video...
ha
I would just ask them if 2 + 2 = 4 so the liar be no and I get to burn them
@Angie Patel well i thought they had to always lie
0:42 says that you have LESS than an hour. The video later states that if you go at a fast pace it will take you 20 minutes. So even if you assume that nobody gets tired from moving at the fast pace, they will likely not be able to go any faster. This means that since there is LESS than an hour left, they will not make it in time no matter what. Also, this theory doesn't even assume the fact that they will need at least a minute to figure out that some are possessed and develop a reasonable plan.
i didn't think about the fact that they would argue, and just i just firgured i could send 3 people down 3 hallways, and if none of them are the exit, the one that went unexplored must be it.
Laziness is often the path to despair. You have the time and the resources. Assuming is dangerous.
@@starsiaeve4649 wha-
Won't work because the possessed students only MIGHT lie! How many more times?
“After that ordeal, you never bring drunk grad students on dangerous expeditions again “
Just say to every one to take the grass if they walked outside
999 iq
oh thats good so you could tell if someone lied or not.
What if its a desert outside?
0:48
Totally looks like he is flipping the bird to the rumbling xD
Alternate ending: You tell your friends about your plan and now you have friends
