    Hey… Forget Me Not. I’ve forgotten the question now!

    I suppose you’re both right, points for everyone with the first round on me

    One day whilst walking around I lose my way. Eventually I come across a fork in a road, but unfortunately the signpost is broken though I find the two broken arms of the post. One says ‘To Town’ and the other says ‘To The Forest’. As I stand there pondering which route to take to go to town, two twins whom I am aquainted with walk past. I know that they know the local area well and I also know that one of them is a compulsive liar and one always tells the truth and that they also don’t like being asked lots of questions. Given these facts what question should I ask (they’ll only allow me one and only one of them will respond)?

    “May i join you on your way to town please?”

    if i was to ask the other twin which way to go what would he reply the one who lies will say the wrong way the one who tells the truth would also say the wrong way

    khb no (they are heading in the direction I’ve just come from)

    either twin will reply but I can only address the question to one of them and only to ask a single question (I can’t ask one and then the other see)

    #344663

    i kinda see what you mean FMN, but my head hurts to think about it too much! lol

    #344664

    I do have it that was it :lol:
    if he asks the lying twin he will say the truthful twin will say the wrong way (which is a lie) if he asks the truthful twin he will say the lying twin will say the wrong way which is the truth so he takes the opposite way whatever either one of them say
