If the guards themselves do not know who will lie or tell the truth .. it changes the problem entirely .... (however, I'm not sure if there's a solution in that case ... O.o )

I might suggest: imdb.com/title/tt0086379/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_17 ;)

I was on this track as well, but I found that "famous" quote by working backwards .. ;) start at the end of the text, and look for common words, that famous quote kind of starts leaping out at you :)

"or the opponent choosing to do something suicidal." aside from playing with a deck of nothing but lands ?? O.o lol

Nice explanation Lopsy ... simple, clean :) I was going to say, take 4 angles and visually start reducing them to 0 .. think about what the star looks like as this happens ... the 5th angle keeps growing to accomodate ... until 4 angles are 0, and the 5th is 180 (ie a straight line) .. :) But I like Lopsy's explanation better .. ;)

I'd make a lousy detective :(

What's the significance of the quo at the start, then ??

I'm impressed on fast you got that :) well done.

@rand: Perhaps 45 is what you're missing? webelements.com/rhodium (I was trying to count letters at first :) lol )

This is the one I first thought of (but forgot how to spell exactly) :) lol
