    I like to think that Gorbak genuinely wanted to help you and knowing about his curse, he figure out a way to lie such that we were able to find the actual values.

      How to be sure ? I mean if 1 match played is false then it cud be either 2 matches are played .. or no match is been played both .. how do u conclude 1 option

      @@insiya_taj The scorecard says the elves played 1 game and won none, meaning you know they have played either 2 or 0 games, and won 1 or 2. Because you know they have won at least 1 game, you can rule out that they have played 0 games because you can't win the game if you don't play. Therefore the elves have played 2 games. You also know from the scorecard that the goblins have not played two games. With that knowledge the only possible answer left is that the elves played 2, the goblins played 1, and the tree folk played 1.

    Tree folk and Elves ended up getting the same score, and center realm's new owner could not be chosen. This sparked a catastrophic war between the two, which is on track to wipe out both nations. You, as a goblin war tactician (and former jousting score keeper) must decide when the tree folk and goblins are weak enough to be attacked and destroyed by your armies, and do it as soon as possible, to minimize damage dealt to center realm. The cursed wizard "helps" once again, and another riddle begins!
    And so another riddle begins...

      @@washada but then that would be violating the curse. At least depending on how the curse actually operates. Like for example how roundabout you need to be to convey true information? I imagine a curse like that would easily block that, but maybe a method that has a extremely roundabout to convey info might work. We could try testing these methods by questions with answers are obvious. For example 'is the sky blue?'. If these methods are proven to work, there. But what if it doesn't work like that. What if the curse looks at the mind directly and sees if it should be modified. What if it just alters it directly? Well getting a working method would be very hard. Very, very hard.

  • @markgearing
    @markgearing 5 років тому +18

    I’d really like to solve this for myself, but I have no idea how the “hits scored” and “hits received” relate to the wins and losses. Am I the only one who doesn’t know the rules to jousting? Is it first hit wins? Best two out of three? First to be two hits ahead of your opponent? I can’t help feeling that the narrator should have explained this.

    • @Chizypuff
      @Chizypuff 4 роки тому +7

      You can solve it without knowing the rules. Doesn't matter how many passes, most hits wins.
      In real jousting, they do 3 passes. 1 point for landing a hit on your opponent, 3 points for breaking your lance on your opponent, and 5 points for knocking your opponent off their horse. Both opponents can score on the same pass, i.e. if they both get knocked off their horse it's 5 points each.
      This scorecard however is only marking hits dealt and received, so point values don't matter.
