    Unlike most contradictions, this one might even be meaningful. Bam!

    Like me, Csargo is overworked, except he's defending two contradictory positions at once.

    Although some say I'm actually "overloaded".

    Both Logic and Csargo have claimed to be inferior players. I don't believe that, I just think they're playing with the opposing pieces.

    I think this post makes Csargo most likely to be town.

    Multiple interlocking defensive arrangements are effective when you haven't yet made contact with the enemy, so that when you do you can exploit more opportunities?

    Ehhh, no. I'm not convinced that scum stages that kind of joking breakdown so early and easily, I can't really see Csargo actually deciding to make that kind of post as scum, rather than a more standard rebuttal or backing down.

    Dp posts his reasoning, Double Question Mark.

    Like the confidence though, random and inappropriate as it may be.

    ...have I not historically posted my reasoning here? Cause I could have sworn that I get scumread here moderately often for trying to solve the game too fast, or at least, me posting analysis on D1 is definitely not unusual for me.

    Csargo town based on what you reasoned is a double question mark conclusion. Class dismissed!

    After a couple of opening blunders, black is in danger of either a lost rook or queen or both.

    However, there hasn't been enough time to make even more mistakes. White still has several pieces to develop to fully capitalize.

    Morphy would get all his pieces involved.

    I'm hoping for some pawn moves that allow for full piece development without opening too many weak squares in the position. If they stay in front of the pieces, there's a chance that black can still develop and get a checkmate in spite of the bad opening.

    And when I said class dismissed I do kind have to log off. See you in the next video! Yes, you, in the audience! You can donate to my chess club, and remember, no donation is too large.

    I posted in another language, yet I think I was still more understandable than this. I think you are saying that you think you might have caught 2 scum, but haven't got town on board yet due to them not being obvious enough, but I have no idea what you mean by the last sentence.

    Pizza translation attempt 2: He wants low posters to post more to allow people to read them, but hopes that they don't screw up and get mislynched. If they do nothing, then scum wins. At least this one was more straightforward.

    I did a quick re-analysis before log off, and this is the position:

    White pieces:

    1) Askthepizzaguy (King, obviously)
    2) Zack (Queen, how scandalous. Sorry, Sooh. Needs to reposition, IYKWIM)
    3) reinoe (Knight, solid development)
    4) dp101 (pawn pushed too early leaving weaknesses for black's knight)
    5) GH (pawn on a solid square)

    Black pieces:

    1) Logic (Queen, gonna get trapped, already in danger)
    2) Csargo (Knight, albeit on a good square for his team)

    The rest of you:

    ??????

    Computer says I'm at plus 5. Also, Zack and GH both in my town, double exclam. Nice.

    Well turns out the translation attempt wasn't necessary. Also not sure if I should feel insulted for being called a pawn or not.

    Type of piece = day one confidence level, to be adjusted on subsequent days with cause.

    Ok seriously, class dismissed. That's as much help as I can give you on this salary. What salary? Exactly.

    White's blindfolded, can't fake not knowing what's happening.

    Black on the other hand, not blindfolded and the pretense at imperfect information is your largest blunder so far.

    I calculated it out, and it doesn't look good for you. RAAAAAAWWWWWRRRRR!!!
