That's the whole point of them having a meeting.[/quote'] 0.0orly Then wouldn't one person come in after each prisoner and 'reset' the lever? That works. No one enters the room except for the prisoners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Mousy Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 During the meeting, the prisoners choose a person. This person will declare if everyone has seen the room. This person counts the number of prisoners and remembers this number n. Anyone who enters the room will either leave if the lever if it is up, or flip the lever up if it is down. Only the selected person can turn the lever down. When the selected person pulls the lever down 2 x n times, he calls that everyone has been in the room. 2n is so if the switch is down originally, then each person flipped it up twice. If it was up originally, however, then 1 person would have only flipped it once, but if the leader flipped it n times, then that person may or may not have gone. This is so Dark doesn't get it.
