Event Description

Logic puzzle idea: Clues are given in fragments, of the form "if X is true, then 'fragment 1' else 'fragment 2'". Players need to visit all 4 oceans to determine these. At least one clue will be a falsehood; clues to determine which clue is false will also be provided (err, constructed).
To clarify: Clues will be provided either as a template with blanks (labeled), and other clues/puzzles/screenshots that indicate how to fill in the blanks, or in the form of "Clue 9 begins with ...", or similar construction instructions.

Judging

Based on completeness, accuracy, and quality of submission. Completeness and accuracy are definite items; quality (ease of understanding) is subjective.

Prizes

To be raised after being shortlisted.

Help Required

Volunteer Assistance

None needed. Some people to help determine "Easiest to understand" of the final solutions would be useful.

OM Assistance

none

Workshop Coaching

???

History

Previous Similar Events

Several past logic puzzle. None based on "Construct clues". Puzzle with a "lie" was submitted during the "Write about the OM's" event; the zero response rate from that is assumed to just be because it was "buried" inside the other event.

Qualifications

Many events, from poetry to logic puzzles. From paintball sloops to PvP races. Etc.

Additional notes: This edit (selecting the logic puzzle) comes AFTER the deadline; previous entry was still indicating either this or a blockade board event. Given the large number of blocakde board submissions, I choose to go with the logic puzzle instead.
