Puzzle 1: Red-Eyed Nose-Pickers

(based on 16 votes)

The inhabitants of Planet Conformity all pride themselves on being, well, conformists. They follow rigid, though strange, rules of behavior and appearance. Recently, they have been infiltrated by a team of spies from Planet Cheapcopy -- and the Cheapcopies never quite do as good a job of conforming as the Conformists do. Can you root out the alien imposters?

The following facts are known:

  1. All Conformists under the age of 37 either have red eyes or don't have red ears, or both.
  2. All Conformists who are at least 37 years old either don't have red ears or do have a name that starts with a consonant, or both.
  3. All Conformists who have red eyes and a name starting with a vowel pick their nose.
  4. All Conformists who pick their nose either have an odd number of letters in their name, or red ears, or both.
  5. All Conformists who have red eyes and an odd number of letters in their name are at least 37 years old.
  6. All Conformists who pick their nose have red eyes, red ears, or both.

Which one or more of these apparent Conformists can you prove to be Cheapcopy imposters?

Glibo, who is 26 years old and has yellow eyes
Ixa, who is 19 years old and picks her nose
Ophm, who has red ears and picks his nose
Qiv, who has blue ears and doesn't pick her nose
Ungl, who is 52 years old and has red eyes
Zorn, who has orange eyes and red ears
