You weren't spoiled so it's super okay. The only downside was that it was distracting and putting ideas in my head that didn't belong there. As soon as Sooh confirmed no one that was dead except the mafia were spoiled, I was able to move on with the game.
Still, I'd be way in favor of a no thanking posts during the game rule. I pushed for it at one point and people were like meh.
As we've seen on MU, dead chats tend to get spoiled as the game goes on, so when dead people are thanking posts, it can be read into, even involuntarily. Even if the post isn't alignment indicative, just thanking someone's post, gets people to think hey, he might be thanking a townie's post. Who is he gonna agree with the most? Probably the townie he's rooting for.
I'm glad it largely didn't impact the game. And even if people were spoiled, I'd consider the thanks to be innocent mistakes before suggesting it had a nefarious motive.
People don't realize that they might accidentally be giving stuff away. That idea is largely how I hunt wolves even, looking for the things that they don't realize give away their alignment or the alignment of others, but do it anyway.
It's a fairly effective way of reading the game. Not foolproof as we've seen, but... people often don't know what they're revealing when they do things. Spew happens.

But in the end, that desire should not be the main goal. It's consuming more important concerns to only be concerned about having a extraordinary town game.
I will just come to grips with the fact that I'm an ordinary townie. That has to be okay from now on.
But it's somewhat comforting to hear I'm not the only one struggling to have that perfect game.

Do you understand the meaning of the word ‘helvete’?
Also, Mr. pizzaguy has proven an adept host for dinner parties.

It's already in effect whenever I host.
Re: Chess - Game Thread [Concluded]
I'm more like 1 for 2 on adept hosting of dinner parties, actually.
You know when you host a great game people still talk about years later, but they neeeeeever mention the "sequel" and neither do you?
Yeeeeaahhhhh.....

I've seen that. Kind of made me have all sorts of second thoughts about things actually.

Re: Chess - Game Thread [Concluded]
On the plus side, now I understand why Hollywood makes a lot of sequels, but they suck.
Sometimes, you cannot perfectly copy a pretty snowflake. Sometimes you just end up with a ball of slush.

Anyway, is the RL poking of the pizzaman the good kind or the other kind?

Helvete
Depends on the situation. Also may differ from POV. For instance, I might have fun doing so, while he might have not fun experiencing it.

It does sound like something I should attempt.
