Deduction Exercise 4: “At Least One Fact”

Objective: State at least 1 fact about every person in the room

Details: Go to a place where you can find large groups of people for long periods of time (e.g. Waiting rooms, coffee shops or cafeterias, bars, restaurants). Sit down and look around, the objective is very simple: deduce at least 1 fact about everyone in the room. What’s the catch? you can’t repeat them, once you deduce someone’s handedness you can’t count it again when you deduce someone else, once you deduce marital status, that doesn’t count when jumping to the next person, and so on and so forth. If you want you can keep track of what facts you’ve already deduced on your phone’s notes app or on a piece of paper so you make sure not to repeat them, but try not to use these to write down your specific observations or deductions, keep your attention focused on looking around and deducing

Happy Observing!
