School quiz! This is about the rules of multiplayer Lix. Consider a 4-team game, with teams red, yellow, green, blue. A red lix enters an exit.

Question 1: The exit shows the team colors of red and yellow. Who gets points for the red lix?

Question 2: The exit shows the team colors of green and blue. Who gets points for the red lix?

Question 3: Is Simon happy about this? Why?

Question 4: What design do you think he will propose instead?

Question 5: Why is wrong to implement the design that you think Simon will propose, and what should he implement instead?

Answers to Q1 and Q2
Exit has red and yellow, red lix enters: The red team gets 1 point. The other teams (yellow, green, blue) get nothing.

Exit has green and blue, red lix enters: The green team gets 1 point, and the blue team gets 1 point, too. The other teams (red, yellow) get nothing.

Questions 3-5 don't get a spoiler immediately. I will eventually write down my ideas. But I'd rather not stir the pot before I've seen other people's opinions. There will be no failing grade here; everybody who answers will pass the course.
