Question: A difficult riddle, can you work it out!?
There are 3 men in the room, Person A, B and C, arranged randomly and you do not know who is who!. One is always a liar, one is always telling the truth and one randomly goes from telling the truth and lying and changes with each question!. You have to determine who is lying!. You can only ask 2 questions and you cannot address the whole group but you must ask an individual that question!. You can only ask the person 1 question than pick someone else to ask the second question!. How do you determine who is lying!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
Answers:
You ask A 'If I'd previously asked you if B is a liar what would you have said!?'
If A is the liar and said No, that means he would have previously said yes and so the real answer is no!. So we can determine that B is not a liar!.
If A is the truth teller and said No, the answer would be No either way!.
If A was to alternate between lying and truth telling, the above two statements explain that bit!.!.!.
So now if we assume A is a liar and said No, making B the truth teller and C the alternater!.
And with only one question as well!.

will you give the answer when it is over!? anyway to determine the liar - ask one of them something about the way they look so you will know whether they are a liar or not, then the second question ask to one of the others another question that cannot be lied about because you know it would be a lie and then you have found that there are either two truth tellers or two liars i think!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I can't see at first sight how this would be possible with just two questions, if you could e-mail me the answer it would be appreciated!. Does it work on asking can you tell me who is telling the truth!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
