I just want to make sure I am clear on this. You know how some ruthless souls immediately start looking for loopholes with the express purpose of exploiting them mercilessly.
This is why both the questioning Seer and the answering Dead Guy have to hand their questions/answers to me, and not to the person in question. That is also why the game manager is titled "Moderator".

However, in answer to the question, yes they do have to ask "What do you know about so-and-so?"

Also, I really like the idea of the apprentice!
They cannot lie. If they don't actually KNOW, then they can dissemble to a certain extent, (very useful for a dead Cobbler), but they cannot lie. Again, this is why the questions and answers are being handled through me: to prevent cheating.

And, as a notice to people playing who might be tempted into dissembling too far, or lying outright, I, as Moderator, reserve the right to edit your replies as I see fit should you die.
