*SPOILER* Inaccuracy in the game... :P
2 truths and 1 lie... Rachel Amber says she's a leo... but she isn't she's a cancer... I know because I remember the file from the first game... it's got my birthday so it stood out to me 22nd of July = end of Cancer.

Well as it turns out she has the exact same birthday as me (I thought hers was 1995)... so this is easy maths as I already know it... if she was born sometime after quarter past 7pm GMT she was a leo. I was curious with this stuff when i was younger cuz yeah - cusp. Crazy that. :P

Rachel were born on 22nd july 1994 in Long Beach, California. That year the sun entered Leo at 1:42 AM GMT on 23rd July = 6:42 PM 22nd july in California. If she was born after that time she is a Leo, otherwise a Cancer. Unfortunately no Birth Certificate exsists so the exact time for ther birth remains unknown. Too bad, would have been cool to make an astrological chart for her. Maybe she knows that her her birth time is in the evening and thus is Leo.

The uncertainty doesn't make her i lier.

The time for entry varies from year to year around 22nd and 23rd, e.g. in 1993 it happened at 7:52 GMT PM the 22nd.

I ignored that. I ended up choosing the ambidextrous claim, ignoring that the New York claim was a lie. I committed a brain fart, forgetting that she was actually born in Cali.

Although I did end up googling this now that I read this post. The 22 July date puts you on the Cancer-Leo Cusp, so you are generally both. So that is neither a truth nor a lie.

So you do have 2 truths and a lie. Just one of those truths is more of a half truth, but she chose to identify as a Leo.

No the devs got it right... if she's born in cali - she was a leo if she was born passed quarter passed 12 midday her time on the 22nd. The results from google are arbitrary/use out dated methods - simple charts that cut signs up randomly that don't actually reflect where they cross in the zodiac) - you have to divide the year evenly - 180 days for winter and autumn signs (because equal sunlight days are about 181 days difference... with equinoxes about 179 days difference... you split the difference and add the remainder to get 180 - 2/5ths of the remander added later for the spring equinox and 3/5ths of the remainder added earlier for autumn equinox - autumn gets extra because libra starts half way through a year which is "as above so below" to half way through a day but you split the difference again - half a day is 12 hours so kinda like 6 hours when the difference has been split but the equinox's time off from 180 isn't exact to 1 day 6 hours but closer to 1 day 4 hours but still a 2/5ths 3/5ths thing of that)... then you have what's left for spring/summer (365.242... - 180) so around 185.242 days make up those 6 signs... then divide that by 6 which is around 30.873 days for each of those signs.... finding the exact time of the start of the year is given by both times being the same when finding the differential of the equinox to the equal-sunlight day - so yout have to add 4*30.873 from the starting date which comes to about 7.30pm in GMT. (There's a subtle 15min shift that's another TL:DR to explain but actually sure which way though) This is depending on whether you're looking for accuracy though - as libra itself is supposed to start very close to the autumn equinox - despite mainsites are off by 2 days here (which isn't really justified to start libra on the 24th of september when the equinox usually begins on the 22nd - never on the 24th).

TL:DR... the only way to get something done right is to do it yourself. :P and equinoxes are the most reliable way of measuring signs due to precession throwing charts off etc and I don't think any mainstream sites use up to date data... I think I got a source for a few hundred years ago but no one could look at the whole zodiac at the same time back then.

Not sure it really seems to matter anyways, Rachel basically admitted that even though the game is called "2 truths and a lie", that perhaps they may not have adhered to the rules... as Chloe also had the option to do so. You get thanks if you trusted her to stick to the rules and follow them yourself.

What the 3 options was lies ? Oo
New york obviously was, Idk about the fact of her being ambidextrous BUT I'm 100% sure she is a Leo.
Unless she had lie to Franck aswell in the first season...

Well i guess i'm gonna try the 3 options to see what she say about it. ( I have only seen "new york" anwser atm.

I ended up doubting she was ambidextrous at first, forgetting she wasn't born in New York. Turned out to be true.

So, does that mean Rachel is full of imagination or full of ♥♥♥♥, now?
