Print Page - Zendo Questions

Pretty sure this game will be somewhat of a hit here.

This post is mostly copied from mafiascum: http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=23946

Those of you familiar with both Twenty Questions and Zendo already know the rules. For everyone else, let me break it down.

Each round, there is one Oracle and a flock of Petitioners.
At the beginning of the round, the Oracle invents a secret rule, completely mechanical, based on - and solely on - the exact wording of the questions asked. This rule will, given the exact wording of a question, tell the Oracle to reply either "Yes" or "No". You must be able to answer the same question the same way, regardless of the context of the question. Examples include:
- Any question with an even number of words, reply "Yes"; otherwise, reply "No".
- Any question beginning with a consonant, reply "Yes"; otherwise, reply "No".
Bear in mind that, first, any overly-complicated rule (e.g. "Any question whose SHA-1 hash ends with an even number, say 'No'; otherwise, say 'Yes'") will get you mocked and shunned; second, every rule is more complicated than it initially appears; and third, if you screw up three times, you must concede (and thereby become an object of pity and lose 1d6 points of respect).
During the round, any Petitioner (i.e. anyone other than the Oracle) may either ask questions, or attempt to guess the rule. Each question asked shall be answered in order by the Oracle, according to the rule. Guesses the Oracle shall deal with in one of exactly two ways:
- By conceding, and revealing the rule that had been used.
- By replying with a question whose answer is different under the actual rule than according to the guess.
- For example: if the rule is "beginning with a consonant = yes" and someone guesses "beginning with a W = yes", the Oracle might say, "Had it the ability, would a woodchuck chuck wood?"
The Oracle shall include in each post answering questions and responding to guesses a list of all prior questions, answers, guesses, and responses.
If the Oracle takes longer than 72 hours to answer a question, the Oracle shall forfeit. If no Petitioners have submitted questions or guesses for 96 hours, then any Petitioner may ask the Oracle to reveal the rule and step down.
The Petitioner who first guesses correctly shall become the next Oracle. If there is no such petitioner (such as after an Oracle is forced to forfeit) [edit: or if said petitioner does not choose a rule within a reasonable timespan], the first poster to so choose may become the next Oracle.

Start!

I have a rule

My rule is: Yes if a yes will make readers more heartbroken /notreally

well the answer to my last question ruled out "second word has three letters"

oh wait no it didn't

my guess is

if the second word has three letters, the answer is no

If the question contains a word that starts with "m", then yes. Otherwise, no.

I thought of that, but the first clause here is not part of the question, it is a statement:

"That looks like a question to me - are you going to answer it?"

I interpret "question" to mean the entire statement supplied to the Oracle.

Then I think you have the rule.

You and me both. I just throw out random questions hoping they'll help somebody. Usually flipping words around or changing just a single word is a good strategy, since it helps narrow and define the field of possibilities. I'm just bad when it actually comes to guessing.

The more you randomly ask questions, the more likely I'm gonna come along and guess the answer.

FAKE GUESS: YES if you put a yes after the question no otherwise

It's not just me being arbitrary, there's a very strict rule. It has a quality that the other rules did not have, which I think is what's confusing everyone.

How many guesses do we reach before Oracle wins?

So, "AB?" is "no" and "A B?" is "yes". Does that mean that spaces are somehow important?

Am I correct in saying that the "yes" or "no" can only depend on the text of the question, and cannot depend on other things such as the user who asked the question, the time of the question, or what question was asked before it? For example, no matter how many times this is asked, it should always be "yes":

A B?
A B?
A B?
How now brown cow?
A B?

A? ~~Yes.~~ Correction: Actually, this is a mistake because I wasn't interpreting the rule strictly enough at this point. This should read: No. Everything else is correct, including "a? Yes."

At the beginning of the round, the Oracle invents a secret rule, completely mechanical, based on - and solely on - the exact wording of the questions asked. This rule will, given the exact wording of a question, tell the Oracle to reply either "Yes" or "No".

I believe that I am. It is mechanical and is solely based on the exact wording of the questions asked. If there was a FAQ for this game it would probably answer whether or not I am for sure, but I can't be more specific than that. Suffice it to say I believe I am following the rules.

Guess: Answer yes if previous question shares any words with current question; no otherwise.

Which, if I'm correct, does not seem in the spirit of the game. But, oh well, at least I'd be correct.

Correct!

I thought it did. There's nothing saying that the questions can't refer to previous questions, and the rule itself is very simple. It's a mechanical rule that relies only on the questions. Just because it made people think a little differently to get the answer doesn't mean it's a wrong rule. Anyhow if I get to be the Oracle again I will definitely consider making rules in a similar vein again. I actually kept expecting someone to do something like this and was surprised when I was the first. Anyhow congrats you are now the Oracle.

I have a rule.

I'm fine with this, although... the issue I see is people pushing the boundary. I can't say for certain though.

What's the rule, Scheau?
Did you like Jorbles rule?
Do I like Jorbles rule?

Is it as sweet as my rule was?
Is it an omelette?

Are you a lawyer?
Yore away rule?

123456789101112?

In the original Zendo, rules may only refer to the pieces of the koan under consideration and the surface of the table, which is assumed to be infinite and featureless. This is "the Spock rule," since we should be able to build a koan here and beam it up to the Enterprise without in any way affecting its legality.

Anyway, question:

Captain, is that logical?

I think the most important rule is that the rules be simple. If people do that then the boundaries probably won't be pushed too hard. Anyone who makes a rule that's too hard should be mercilessly mocked and shunned as the rules state. That'll be a deterrent for anyone who gets too imaginative.

I wasn't aware of that rule. It wasn't stated and I'd never encountered this game before. I did read the relevant section of the rules before crafting the rule, and thought it fell well within the bounds. If Axxle needs to clarify the rules he should include that there, though I (obviously) think the expanded playing field I was working with is more interesting.

BTW Schneau you hadn't invalidated my guess until way later with Logical

No, "Is it as sweet as my rule was?" is 22 characters and wrong.

I'm fine with this, although... the issue I see is people pushing the boundary. I can't say for certain though.

I think the most important rule is that the rules be simple. If people do that then the boundaries probably won't be pushed too hard. Anyone who makes a rule that's too hard should be mercilessly mocked and shunned as the rules state. That'll be a deterrent for anyone who gets too imaginative.

In the original Zendo, rules may only refer to the pieces of the koan under consideration and the surface of the table, which is assumed to be infinite and featureless. This is "the Spock rule," since we should be able to build a koan here and beam it up to the Enterprise without in any way affecting its legality.
I wasn't aware of that rule. It wasn't stated and I'd never encountered this game before. I did read the relevant section of the rules before crafting the rule, and thought it fell well within the bounds. If Axxle needs to clarify the rules he should include that there, though I (obviously) think the expanded playing field I was working with is more interesting.

Logical, is that captain?
If a question can be asked twice and be given two different answers, it's not within the parameters of the game.

That's not clear from the rules which state: At the beginning of the round, the Oracle invents a secret rule, completely mechanical, based on - and solely on - the exact wording of the questions asked. This rule will, given the exact wording of a question, tell the Oracle to reply either "Yes" or "No".

My rule did state that the Oracle should reply either Yes or No, was mechanical, and was based entirely on the exact wordings of the questions asked. If you want the questions to be considered in a vacuum I'd suggest appending the Spock clarification to the rules to prevent future confusion. (I expect this thread will go long and people won't read through all the old conversation.)

Bolded sentence indicates that the "exact wording" that matters is of the question asked, not the entire list of questions asked up to that point.

Exactly correct! I had to make a judgement call about " ?", and decided that the average length of 0 words is "no" even though it's undefined. Your turn Squidd!

Your rule was also based on the *order* of the questions asked, so it wasn't solely based on wording.

edit: I added this to the rule in question "You must be able to answer the same question the same way, regardless of the context of the question."

Need to think of a new rule AND step away from computer for a bit. May not be back right away, but should be back with a rule within a couple of hours.

We should put all of the rules used so far in the first post so we don't get repeats.

Done. -Axxle

I have a rule.

Rule does Volt have?
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog?

AAA is an acronym, so are the others, and I don't think you can do that. What if I asked you in French, you wouldn't answer either?

I can do whatever I want, it's my question.

Quote from: jotheonah on December 17, 2012, 04:13:08 pm

That's intentionally withholding information that may or may not be helpful in guessing the rule. You could choose never to answer questions that result in "Yes" too, but it would defeat the purpose. Those questions are as legitimate as any others. If they crack your rule, so be it. That's the point.

It's quite the opposite. But if I say anymore about why I won't answer the questions, that would give too much away. I am not withholding information. My rule simply does not work on questions like that.

If the rule doesn't work on such questions, isn't the answer just simply "no" for each of them then?

It's been my understanding that all rules follow the format "If XYZ, the answer is 'yes'; else, the answer is 'no.'"

I can't believe how much you guys are pushing this. I respectfully request you guys refrain from questions like that this round, and I promise that they will not make the question easier to solve if I am forced to answer them, they will make it harder.

WHAAAAT!
I always pronounce Galzria in 2 syllabuls! (Galz-ria)

I can't even figure out how you would pronounce Galzria with 2 syllables.

I struggled with "actually" too, but I looked it up in Merriam Webster and it broke it out into 4.

This is correct.

Fun with diphthongs! You're lucky no one posed a question with the word "fire" in it.

Gotta go do RL work stuff but will be back with a rule in a few hours, I think.

GALZ - Ria
(Its one syllabul to me, rather than Ree-ah)

And while I don't think joth's rule was necessarily out of bounds for the game - and certainly wasn't INTENTIONALLY so - I am concerned that any rule that hinges on pronunciation is bound to get into difficulties, seeing as how they can get... inexact. Especially when proper nouns are involved.

Especially when there are so Americans here, we all know how wrong you get words!

*Runs and hides*

Was a tricksy rule, I'd never have got there! Especially when it was highlight Galz was the difference.

But as a collective we did, so yay us!

Wooo.

My apologies for any who feel cheated. I wanted to ask about pronunciation of Galzria, but it would have given it away.

I'm just glad zxcvbn wasn't playing ...

Also, apparently I've been saying Galz's name wrong in my head for a long time...

How were you pronouncing it jo, I've always thought of it as Galz-Ria hence the shortening to Galz.

Probably Galz-REE-AH, which isn't incorrect exactly, but it's an extension of the natural flow (to me).

Y'know what? Let's proceed.

I have a rule.

GUESS: No questions have the answer yes
GUESS: No questions have the answer no

;D

I've always said "Galz-REE-YAH" I can also understand "GALZ-RYE-YAH"

But I can't think of a way for it to actually be 2 syllables.

Quote from: Voltgloss on December 20, 2012, 12:48:08 pm

Y'know what? Let's proceed.

I have a rule.

Guess: must contain no words longer than three letters = yes
Guess: must contain no words longer than four letters = yes
Guess: must contain no words longer than five letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than five letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than four letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than three letters = yes

;D ;D ;D

Ugh is Galz-ree-ah a troll?

Didn't the original game have rules about how many guesses you can make?
Isn't that important so it doesn't devolve into 20 questions?
Does your rule smell like a cat?
Does your rule smell like a dog?
Am I larger and more terrifying than your rule?

Did Joth actually look at the rules on page 1 before suggesting that I cannot simply post all guesses and no questions?

FWIW, I knew joth's rule was about language or grammar or pronunciation but as English is not my first language and it sucks when it comes to stuff like pronunciation and spelling I wasn't too hot with guessing it..

Guess: has a word that starts with a lowercase "h" - answer is yes; otherwise no.

Guess: has thirteen words and odd number of non-space, non-letter characters - answer is yes; otherwise no.

How about this? Is this it?

Bah I'm wrong unless Volt accidently answered "If a question had eleven words, would that make a difference? No." incorrectly

Will that produce the desired results of helping us win this terrible game?
Will it at least provide us with additional information about Voltgloss's new rule?

No, No, Yes.

Guess: Answer contains a "MEME!" = yes

(http://i.qkme.me/3seu6f.jpg)

More specifically, "question contains the letters in 'meme,' i.e., at least two m's and two e's = yes." ;D

Given that I myself made an error the first time on the "larger and more terrifying" question - because my eye skid right past the m in "Am" - I'm giving this one to Galz.

If the question has m, followed by e, followed me m, followed by e (there can be letters in between), answer is yes, otherwise no?

eemm?

Holy crap! Whoooo!

But will it, really?
Are you prepared to handle long lists of questions from Grujah that are all slightly different?
Based on which, I hope you made the rule something you can apply in just a few seconds per question - did you?
Does the rule hinge on letters?
No pronunciation involved, right?
How long have you had this rule in your back pocket?
Will Grujah solve this one?
Do you expect more players here now that my rule is finally revealed?
A perennial favorite: Why DO birds suddenly appear?

I now want to put a William Tell role into a game with an IC.

what?
how do you know?
why hasn't anyone posted questions for 6 days?
Did you know I figured out Voltgloss' meme rule before you, but didn't post the answer because I didn't want to come up with a rule?
Are you lying?
Is he the gargoyle that always tells the truth?
How's it going?
Does this rule have anything to do with # of letters?
How does it respond to punctuation changes?
How!?!
Is it parity related?
Does it relate to parity?

Does Galzria even care?
Does Galzria even remember the original rule?

Am I the one?
Is there anyone more awesome than Grujah?

Well, since Galz obviously does not care.

I have a rule.

Sorry, it was creeping along sooooo slowly. I can't update up from my mobile, and by the time I hit my PC the thread has slipped away back into the nether. My rule was awesome, but alas. I'm happy to turn the keys over to you. You asked the most questions in a dying thread, so you deserve to be the oracle.

I think I got the first "yes" answer w/out capital letters... though it might have been because of the periods.

meanwhile, capitalization clearly does matter somehow.

haven't checked all the questions so far, but:

If there are 3 or more characters that aren't lowercase letters, spaces, or questions marks, yes, otherwise no.

pretty sure that's it. could also be the same thing, except question marks aren't included and it's 4 or more instead.

This is correct.

Edit 2: Okay...I got confused and mis-read it when I re-read what you said, so I thought you were wrong, but you are correct. The rule is: "If it contains 4 or more characters that are not lowercase letters or spaces, the answer is 'yes'; otherwise 'no'." Which is what you are saying, so that's right. Sorry for the confusion!

I probably made my rule too hard. I'm sorry. It's hard to predict the difficulty of a rule for the first time.

Still, I think it is very possible to solve, given enough motivation.

If someone is interested, I can give a very small (or not so small) hint.

I've just been trying so hard to collapse this camel, I've been distracted.

Guess: If the question has at least as many words with five or more letters than words with 4 or fewer letters yes, otherwise no.

Yes, that's basically it. You can do the next one (and thank jotheonah for the almost-correct answer).

The way I formulated it is "If at least half of the words contain at least 5 characters, then yes" (so the accent in "can't" counts, which is why "Can't I?" is "Yes"). It's a bit arbitrary why I accept scott_pilgrim's answer, but not jotheonah, though (but I didn't want to get to pedantic and also mark scott_pilgrim's answer as wrong).

I feel like I stole that one from jotheonah since I was totally on the wrong track until he came up with that. If he wants to do the next one, I'm fine with that. Otherwise, I have a rule.

I AM REALLY REALLY SORRY GUYS I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I WAS THINKING BUT APPARENTLY I ANSWERED A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS WRONG LAST NIGHT. (Seriously, I have no idea how that happened, there is no reason I can think of for answering all those question yes.) I fixed them in this post and I'll go back and edit my other posts. I think they were just in the group asked by florrat near the end.

No problem, that can happen! But actually I'm glad those questions have a different answer. I was really confused before, which you might have been able to tell, since I repeated some earlier questions :)

Yeah, it's just that that sort of thing can totally ruin the game. I remember an actual game of Zendo that I played one time where the master had told us a particular structure was wrong, I asked him several times if he was sure it was wrong and he assured me it was. All of the things I had been thinking were contradicted by that structure, and it wasn't until much later that he caught it. So I know how awful it can be to be on the other end of that, but hopefully I caught myself quickly enough that it didn't cause too much trouble.

Ah, finally!

Guess: If the question contains a word with the same number of letters as the number of words in the question, then yes (otherwise no).

(for example, "Is this the answer?" would be yes, because the question contains 4 words, and it contains the word "this", which contains 4 letters)

He said it was just a coincidence! :P

Correct!

Well found, xeiron! I thought it would be easier than it was. Should I make my next rule (if any) easier, or do you like big challenges like this one?

I have a rule.

Does this sentence with both a y and an n in it follow the rule?

or do we need more than fifty?

What about these?

If any n-th word has exactly n letters, than yes, otherwise no.

To make it clear, that was a guess.

Guess: If any n-th word has exactly n letters, than yes, otherwise no.

Correct! Well done, Grujah.

Also you worded it much more eloquently then my original formulation, which was: "If any word in the question has the same number of letters as it's ordinal rank in the question, yes. Otherwise, no."

It helped cuz for a long time I though that was the solution for one of scott's questions.

I have a rule.

Me too! That's how i thought of it.

Is this rule also derivative of a previous rule?
Will it therefore be guessed easily?
Or will it be fiendishly difficult and nigh impossible to guess?

Me too! That's how i thought of it. Yes.

I think spaces and letter order don't count?
Unless, of course, I just missed some stuff?

spaces, case and non-letter characters probably don't matter, but I think letter order does?
My most recent questions will test that?
order of the alphabet seems to matter?

Am I mistaken in believing it's a math problem in disguise, with the answer simply being a 0 (no), or 1 (yes) based on a simple mathematical statement (ie. "Number is whole, result even = yes, else = no)?

all rules are math problems in disguise, as you describe?
this one isn't as well disguised though, yet is still quite hard?

If a = 1, b = 2, c =3, ..., could the rule simply calculate based on some formula the first 'x' terms to determine odd/even, then apply "odd = no, even = yes" type result?

yes, exactly. Letter order might still matter though.

Yep!

I could do another rule, but if someone else wants to go it’s all yours.

I do have a rule... but I’ll save it for my Holiday break so I can be more responsive.

Joth, go for it!

i have a rule

If I played a Young Witch, would you reveal your Moat?
Would you, could you, do it on a boat?
Would you do it on a plane?
On a train?
In the rain?
Would you do it if I bought a card that curses you on gain?

I have a rule?

(Not a question to be answered yes or no)

Do we have somewhere that all previously done rules are listed? The one in the OP is out-of-date and probably always will be.

We would probably have to start a new thread. Is Ozle lost and gone forever like Voltgloss?

I messed up.

“Would you do it on a plane?” Should be Yes

We're coming up on 2 years since last activity - so... maybe not as gone as Voltgloss, but yeah, probably better to create a new thread once this rule is over and try to list all the used rules in the OP.

Correct! Incidentally, if it had less than three words it was no automatically.

Does the person guessing the rule get to make the next rule?

I believe so; I'm ready to start a rule, but there was some mention of starting a new thread for this so we could have an updated list of all rules so far.
Is it the case that the thread starter is the only one able to make edits?

I'm creating a new thread, will start my new rule there, and update it later to contain the list of previous rules.

New thread is here:
