Game Setup
The explanation video outlined the rules of the game as follows
If History is taken, then neither statistics nor music can be taken.
If music is taken, then neither physics nor theater can be taken.
If writing is taken, then neither physics nor statistics can be taken.
1) H then Not S and Not M
S or M then Not H
2) M then Not P and Not T
P or T then Not M
3) W then Not P and Not S
P or S then Not W
I am confused on the wording of “nor” as I thought it would be “or” rather than “and” I diagramed the game as -
1) H then Not S “or” Not M
S “And” M then Not H
2) M then Not P “Or” Not T
P “And” T then Not M
3) W then Not P “Or” Not S
P “And” S then Not W

Hi, neither nor sets up a group. That is, if we say neither X nor y, then we know it's BOTH not X and not y. Or would be setting up a choice between the two, nor means that neither can be true.
