I'm not arguing who's a Noble and who's a Savage yet. You're right...it could be either combination (until we apply logic), but my argument is they're not all of the same tribe.

just realized a flaw in my thinking.

And you did say the third man answered friendly. Where there was no context of how the first two answered. Since Nobles are kind you could assume the third one was truly a noble lol. I dunno.

"He said he was a noble." was the remark. Not that he WAS a noble.

if savages always lie, and nobles always tell the truth than the first person had to say 'im a noble' because no one would ever claim to be a savage. That means the second guy is also telling the truth, he said hes a noble, I am also a noble. Therefore the 3rd man is lying. I would still eat him.

no one will ever say they are not noble, because you will either tell the truth, noble. or lie about not being not noble. Noble.

The 2nd man has to be lying. so if he is lying he is not noble, he is also lying about the first man being noble.

the 3rd man is telling the truth. I would eat him.

Why do you say the second man has to be lying?

I can make the tag, but someone else will have to install it.

I still do not understand how my obscure thinking led me to the logical answer.

Well BLNK, thats whats called a gut instinct. Apparently the size of the gut correlates to the size of the instinct.
