I notice the forum is very slow again.

[HB-IHC]

The Chief FA is talking to the Brian "Bow Bells" o'Bleary the BrianAir Boss... I've heard reports that Brian "The Green" Whitelegg has been seen. His parachute is still under the seat in front and there's some left over crispy duck rolls on his seat.

Aaah, good!... me ol' China might not 'av bailed out then. Cor blimey, can you eeemajin wot the Air Transport Safety Board would make of thaaaat? , says BBBoBBB.

Yes, point taken, says the Chief FA... if I see him I'll let him know that all the information he needs for Challenge 6 can be found by reading through from the start of the challenge... that's if he feels up to a challenge. After all, I have a feeling he might be prawn crackered.

Now yer talkin' my langwij... I fink I might launch a noo root frum Stansted to Milaya an' call it "Rhymin' Slang to Penang". Wot do ya fink?

"Bow Bells" and the Chief FA continue their chat and the FA addresses you all...

Poland.

The FA says:

Ja!... the Aurochs' final resting place was indeed Polska!

The person saying that is a man. Either an honest SPON or a dishonest GILS.

[Moose135]

Work out as much as possible from the following statement made by the 4th speaker, D:"I am from the SPON tribe”

From that statement, all we can determine is that speaker D is a male.

[HB-IHC]

The FA says:

Peter.... you are, as you probably already know, correct.

From that statement, all we can determine is that speaker D is a male.

And the same for you Moose.

The FA says:

You are, of course, correct Brian... and we see that Peter has helped you settle back in.

FYI Brian, the next part of the challenge is a logic question based on the text given at the beginning of Challenge 6. You may want to take 10 minutes to acquaint yourself with it and the questions / answers to the other parts.




Hector Decimal is talking to The Poet... mmm, from what Peter has posted, I can see that everything seems to be on track although, as we expected, there are going to be slight discrepancies due to rounding errors. It will be interesting to see the final differences but it looks like they won't affect the way we release the next piece of information.



Part 9 will be posted up shortly but, for now, here's your Google Earth instructions...


Your new Google Earth waypoint is (h)

To get there, travel 11140 Km from (g) on a heading of 36.5 degrees

Middle of nowhere, Saskatchewan, Canada (no surprises then)

In fact, this time we are so far into middle of nowhere, that G-Earth and G-Maps show a black and white photo!



edited to add:

Here's the data that has to be used to solve the challenge that I assume Paul refers to. Saves you some looking as this thread can get very slow. In particular in the evenings (CET/GMT):

SPON males tell the truth
SPON females lie
GILS males lie
GILS females tell the truth

[HB-IHC]

Challenge 6, Part 9

6.9

E, F and G make the following statements:

E: “I am female”
F: “I am from the GILS tribe”

What can you say about E, F and G?



As usual, brief final conclusion(s) only please.

Thanks, Paul

[Petertenthije]

E: GILS male
F: female, tribe inconclusive
G: SPON tribe, gender inconclusive

[HB-IHC]

E: GILS male
F: female, tribe inconclusive
G: SPON tribe, gender inconclusive

The FA says:

You have 2/3 correct Peter.

[Petertenthije]

The FA says:

You have 2/3 correct Peter.

Ooops, answer E is GILS tribe but inconclusive gender.



Anyway, I'm going to eat. Be back in an hour or two.

[HB-IHC]

Ooops, answer E is GILS tribe but inconclusive gender.

The FA says:

Verbeter Peter. Congratulations at completing 6.9 sleuths!
