Lie and truth

As no racoon can hear any other racoon they need the monkey to give a message to another racoon.
Well, we all no monkeys. They are nice and funny animals but they don´t always tell the truth. If, for example, the racoon at the very bottom says "YES!" then an honest monkey says "YES!" while a lying monkey tells "NO!". A clear "NO!" is switched by a liar-monkey to a "YES!", what a little bastard. Every racoon believes what the monkey tells him and communicates what he heard further up the tree.
In an easy example it could look like this:

Starting with a "YES!" at the root of tree, a confusing mixture of "YES!" and "NO!" is received at the top of tree. This leads to a question that is described at the next page.
