Logic Problem:

 

During the Thing, Gregor, Tarl, and three other men were each awarded talmits and the kiss of a slave girl, two of whom were Gunnhild and Pretty Ankles. Each of the five men won a different contest and received a different colored talmit (one was blue). Can you determine, from the information provided, the names of the five winners, who kissed them, which contest they won (Wrestling, Singing, Axe Throw, Swimming, and Oar Walking), and what color talmit each received?

  1. Ivar won the red talmit, and was kissed by a slave with a descriptive name. A slave with a descriptive name kissed the winner of the yellow talmit who did not win the Singing contest.
  2. Gunther kissed a girl with a descriptive name, and Gorm who won the green talmit was kissed by one of the girls who did not have a descriptive name.
  3. Pouting Lips did not kiss the winner of the Axe Throw.
  4. Olga did not kiss the winner of the Oar Walking contest. The winner of the Oar Walking contest won the gold talmit.
  5. The winner of the Wrestling contest was kissed by a slave with a descriptive name. His name does not begin with a "G".
  6. Hilda kissed the winner of the Swimming contest and kissed a man who's name does not begin with "G".
