Immunity Challenge

You're standing at three light switches at the bottom of stairs to the attic. Each one corresponds to one of three lights in the attic but you cannot see the lights from where you stand. You can turn the switches on and off and leave them in any position. How can you identify which switch corresponds to which light bulb if you are only allowed one trip upstairs?



Please post your answers here. First correct answer wins immunity for their tribe.
 
Turn on the first two switches and leave them on for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, turn off the second switch, leaving the first switch on. Now go upstairs to the attic. The light that is on is connected to the first switch. A light that is off but has a bulb that is still warm to the touch is connected to the second switch. The light that is both off and cold to the touch is connected to the third switch, which was never turned on.

Good job Leah. I am proud of you. You're just so smart ;)

OK, just as a heads up, the next challenge is going to be timed and therefore I would like to do it when the most possible people in this game can be available. Please discuss amongst yourselves when your tribe can be available and then let me know here or via pm. I'll work out a time for it based on that. :)

Ok, we'll do that. Right now most of my tribe are asleep tho, so it will be a little bit later when we can give you that answer :)

btw - thank you for putting up with us all and organizing this whole shindig :)
