He always speaks the truth, so he never got approved to get a credit card.

The right guy, presumably the liar said "the other only tell truth", then it should be a lie.

And both said she may ask one question, which can't be true and a lie at the same time.

So they are both occasional liars and whatever they say is no help at all.

Saying you may ask one question can be interpreted many ways

It could be permission, a command, or just a prediction

The truth teller could be giving a command, the rules of the interaction. The liar could be predicting you'll ask more than one question and lying about it

I think you got them on the first, but if the liar would answer more than one question, while the truth teller will only answer one, "she may ask one question" probably falls under a lie

If we assume "you may ask us one question" implicitly entails "and get an answer from me"... Yeah, maybe.

If the guard that lied started with 4 or 5 it may have worked, I doubt she knows how to validate card numbers on the fly.

This reminds me of the time my hotel rewards membership was shared to a timeshare and the guy who called me would not take no for an answer and was practically begging me to sign up. He tried to convince me he had all my information already to gain my trust by doing the “your credit card starts with number 5” trick.

Just write down both responses and try both

We are in 2026 I'm pretty sure there are vending machines and ATMs there now

Edit: please ignore this stupid comment I just woke up and I don't know what I'm saying

No, no. I want to hear more about the vending machines and ATMs in dungeons.

Are they the actual loot or do they teleport the stuff from a safer place?
Do the ATMs hand out cash or coins?
Can I get some instant healing for a fee when running away from monsters?
Is the fee subject to dynamic pricing?
Actually, how high is the margin? Is there a wizard that casually TPs to compete with a slightly lower prices?
Are there reverse vending machines to sell the loot without coming back to town?
Do some people just live in the dungeons, getting whatever they need from the vending machines?
Can the monsters use the vending machines?\

Probably some underpaid employee comes every week to refill the machines

Whether it's coin or cash I guess it will depend on which ATM and which bank you're using

No you can't get instant healing currently since that machine was broken and we are waiting for the IT department to send a technician

Since the adventurers guild is a bunch of communist losers the prices are legally fixed by the government after countless strikes and demonstrations

Every few levels there's an old wizard running a kiosk where you can get stuff cheaper

No reverse vending machine, the government deemed it illegal under monopoly/antitrust laws as whoever gets to control the selling machines can control the entire dungeon economy, but you can some times sell to a wizards kiosk and if you found coins or money you can deposit them at an ATM

The dungeons are still dangerous so nobody wants to live there but I would imagine some small communities or commercial centres and motels in some safe levels

And yes anyone can use a vending machine if they can pay this is capitalism after all

There is a whole show on this with 3 seasons. 🤣

Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Wander Through the Labyrinth

Not the best but least original.

The first season was pretty good, second wasnt great but watchable, the third season really dropped off in quality.

Wait, they both say "To find the exit you may ask us one question". Shouldn't one of them always lie?
