A week ago I posted the following "Ultimate Multiple Choice Quiz"
Which of these five choices are true?
(a) All of the below
(b) None of the below
(c) One of the above
(d) None of the above
(e) None of the above
Two people answerered a, nobody said b, 2 said c, 3 said d, and 2 said e. One said no choice was true, one gave an answer I don't understand, and one just commented. I left open the possibility that more than one choice might be true, but nobody went there. In the vote for best answer after the question closed, one of the people who said c won, but c isn't the right answer!
If a is true, then a says b is true also, but a and b contradict one another on the truths of c, d, and e, so the supposition is wrong. Thus a is not true.
If b is true, then one of a and b is true and so c is true. But b says c is false. Thus b is not true either.
Since a and b are both false, c is false too.
a, b, and c all false makes d true, and that makes e false.
d is the correct answer.
