I wrote each of their names in a large circle and then drew arrows with "H" (human), "C" (computer) or "NC" (not computer) based on what each said. It was pretty fun figuring it out that way. Now I'm stuck on the actual solution.

Out of curiosity, how did you all set up the logic portion of the puzzle?

Oh, I missed the interrogate the humans clue until reading this forum. I tried every combination of turning human/computer into 0/1 for binary, expecting a date like 1997.

Just went crazy because I was convinced I had the right answer, went round and round in circles and discovered the final answer is two words not one grrr, but the answer in the book has it as one word

Almost, but not quite! Shirlyanne says "Margarette is a computer", but if Shirlyanne is a human, she would be telling the truth, meaning Margarette would have to be a computer, but you're saying Margarette is a human. So you get a contradiction there.

The logic test has two possible solutions. Humans: Maximilian, Bernadette, Washington, Margarette, Shirlyanne, and Francisqui also works but doesn’t get you to the answer.

Basically, I used a 10x10 table, with the left side being the "accusing" subject and the top being the "accused." Then I filled in each accusation made, and looked for contraditions. Those showed me which subjects had to be different (i.e. not both humans/both computers). From there, I tested Montserrat as both human and computer, and only Montserrat as human lead to an arrangement with no contradictions.

And further significant that each name has ten letters

It's significant that each name has a subject number.

I don’t understand how you get the answer. It seems like, other than being an example of AI, it has nothing to do with it. What process do you put the names through to get the answer?

Oddly I noticed the unconventional spellings and circled the letters associated with the number problem just as a doodle and noticed the word then I went back and did it the way it was intended.

I think the fact that M says “interrogate the humans” is supposed to be the clue.

I was able to determine which were the 6 humans, but I had to read Hint 3 before I was able to find the word to solve the puzzle. How were we supposed to know that the solution was a single word derived from the 6 names?
