Imposter Among Us
Suppose on a space ship, among the 9 crewmates, there is 1 imposter. Imposter tries to kill off crewmates and destroy the ship. The imposter has advantages to sneak through the vents. While crewmates are required to do tasks and fix the ship, you are given a map of the ship and usage of the rooms.
Now for the problem: Brown was found dead in security by Pink, The rest of the 8 crewmates made the following statements:
Red: I was swiping my ID card in admin
Blue: I saw someone with light colour goes into the vent
Green: I was investigating in admin and I'm certain that 3 people were at the Navigation and 2 at Medbay.
Lime: I was fixing wire somewhere but I can't remember
Cyan: I was with Black
Yellow: I was at Medbay
Pink: Before Brown die, I was at security and found Cyan passed one of the cameras
Black: I saw Blue nearby
Suppose all innocent crewmate are telling the truth and the imposter lied, who was the imposter?

everyone: votes me*
and I'm new to Brilliant community
@Nathan Soliman - Yes, that is a dead giveaway, which can be used to solve the problem, but how can green see from the cameras. Is he at Admin, or Security? Because the camera zones don't the rooms, only the pathways.

@A Former Brilliant Member – oh i see what it means now
ig u only type ok it says you have to make ur comment longer but by putting litterally some text you can say it i just say it and then use as the space filler cus it doesnt appear but stil counts as a word somehow
he didnt see from cameras
most likely pink will get voted tho if this was a real game cus yellow will lie and say pink self report and even green wouldn't know bc they only know the amount of people in there but not who and most among us players have dumb logic and will just believe the first accusation they hear as long as another person confirms it who could be the other imposter helping
in a real game of among us pink would be under heavy suspicion since nobody was with them and they could have self reported regardless of whether yellow was at O2 or not

Or everyone would just vote Red because it seems all are sus of Red nowadays lol

not really
it would just depend on what kind of players are also in the server
if u plan to play i recomend you dont go to electrical alone and slo two ways to check i somebody is imposter is by checking of task bar goes up before they leave a "task" and for weapons go to the edge and look for the guns firing animation also medbay scan has its own unique animation which will prove 100 per cent they r crew mate

@Bithiah Koshy – the pain is worhth it
@Nathan Soliman I'm going to change the question a bit because that wasn't meant to be the solution LOL.
Log in to reply
it kinda makes the question unclear bc yellow could be teling the truth he was at medbay because green was "certain" that 3 people were at navigation

@Nscs 747 – Wishing that I can change my name tp "Cyan Sus"
Why does everybody hate Yellow so much!!!???
Mhmm I agree @Lâm Lê that Yellow was quite suspicious .
Yellow
if yellow was at 02 then green would have said there was 1 person at O2
also the yellow guy in the picture literally has red name lol
