The switchers will ALWAYS switch from lie to truth to lie to truth.

HOWEVER, you do not know which one the switchers start with. They could start with a lie or a truth, but they will always switch every time.

Is there an answer yet? Or is this one of those, "I'll let the suspense build, then let it die, then forget this ever happened." sort of things?
