Then again... If on 1st weighing, ABCD vs EFGH, ABCD is heavier, Weigh ABE vs CDF. If ABE is heavier, weigh A vs B; Whichever is heavier is fake. If balanced, then F is lighter. If CDF is heavier, weigh C vs D; Whichever is heavier is fake. If equal, then E is lighter. If ABE = CDF, then Weigh G vs H; whichever is lighter is the culprit. On the above, if EFGH was heavier, use the same procedure as above, but draw from the opposite sets.
