11:16:26 <ash-> hey all
11:20:38 <ash-> thanks carson, yeah we drink protein drinks
11:27:27 <JarZ> hi
11:27:43 <ash-> stef, i don't get it, wouldn't they already know that fact given they can see eachother's eyes?
11:27:59 <ash-> ey
11:30:13 <JarZ> none of them would leave on the first morning, assuming that the person was talking about someone else
11:30:40 <JarZ> however, on the second day, all of them would have to leave, all of them knowing now that they are the one with red eyes
11:35:49 <damian_> wat u crappin' on about
11:35:50 <damian_> ey ash
11:38:09 <JarZ> [02:37] <stefan> too early for this, but
11:38:09 <JarZ> [02:37] <stefan> An island has no mirrors or reflections & 2 rules: 1) Anyone finding they have red eyes must leave the next dawn; 2) Nobody can talk about eye color. There are 100 people & all have red eyes & perfect logic. A visitor innocently says "At least one of you has red eyes". What happens afterwards?
11:39:24 <damian_> the visitor gets evicted straight away for mentioning eye colour!
11:45:01 <ash-> lol
11:45:32 <ash-> i don't get that
11:49:03 <damian_> logic can tell you both things
11:49:08 <damian_> one .. all of us have red eyes!
11:49:27 <damian_> two .. they all have red eyes, surely not all of us do
11:50:55 <ash-> i don't get that either
11:51:58 <ash-> the stranger's comment is redundant because they would have already known everyone else has red eyes
11:52:19 <ash-> so "at least one of you had red eyes" is already known
11:52:46 <damian_> that's why i said the visitor gets evicted .. you're not allowed to talk about eye colour!

15:56:32 <stefan> ash, they can see each others eyes, but given they can't talk about it, assume that they are the only person without red eyes
15:57:13 <stefan> given 2 people instead of 100, first day they'll both hope that the other person will leave
15:57:33 <stefan> when they don't, they know they must both have red eyes, and leave on the 2nd

16:15:25 <stefan> ah, forgot andy's answer
16:47:42 <Timegrinder> I prefer damian's answer
16:47:48 <Timegrinder> It's the most correct no matter how many people there are
16:47:57 <Timegrinder> It's also the FIRST logical step
16:48:09 <Timegrinder> ...and the easiest to overlook
