Chess - Game Thread [Concluded]

[Dp101]

Given Zack commenting on pretty much everyone except Logic, he's either scum with him or mason with him or neighbors with him. I think they're talking to each other.

Regardless, Zack's quality vs quantity isn't very good at all. There's almost no gamesolving other than OMGUS.

Unvote: Logic

Vote: Zack

ATPG and GH probably town.

Quick, give a read on me, I don’t think you’ve seen me play before so I’m curious as to what you think of my style.

It has potential. Needs more confidence.

You need a goal, so here you go: When you become a GM you can move your rooks diagonally.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Also the kids in the 1 o'clock class do that too. But for them it's illegal.

Sorry in a bit. TMNT: Mutant Apocalypse is on and I didn't prepare the DVR because I didn't expect it to be on.

Expand on why Pizza and GH are town while you're at it.

Pizza lock town, solid.

Like another famous GM, I'll only show you the games I win. ;)

I'm gonna choose not to just to be obstinate.

Ok apparently I'm not stepping away to cool down, because this is the most hypocritical post in the thread. You literally call me lazy, and then in the very next post, decline to do some very simple work asked in a friendly matter by someone who is most likely not scum at this point. Vote: reinoe because not only is your behaviour not helping town whatsoever, but you also seem determined to tilt people to put them off their game.

I am seriously going to take a break after this because this game is just making me angry right now, and I really really don't want to get tilted.

Do something useful, make a read.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I feel like you posted this exact pic as mafia before in a similar situation.

Well, you're clearly familiar enough with me to realize that I'm not going to town read someone just because they have a high post count because you quoted this post of mine earlier in your 271...

Regardless, Zack's quality vs quantity isn't very good at all. There's almost no gamesolving other than OMGUS.

So it's clear that I don't care how often someone posts: I care about the quality. You can't possibly claim to be confused about this because, unlike ATPG, I've made my opinion on the matter unambiguously clear. As for "not helping town whatsover", You're more than welcome to think that. But I think in my 4-5 posts I've shown more determination to solve the game. Or I could make 1/3 of my posts talking about how confusing everything is because you appear to believe that's something that's helpful to town.

Posting that I am not understanding something is useful to town, because the point of posting is to communicate ideas, and if I'm not understanding someone's posts when they appear not to be jokes, it is very important that I say something so that everyone can cooperate and read each other with minimal confusion.

At no point did I say "please clear me, I posted a lot". When someone comes in and does one post of analysis that reads like it's a personal attack on me, centred around me apparently doing nothing, then refuses to answer a simple question, that's what ticks me off, not me not getting townread by you simply by posting a bunch. I don't care if you scumread me, I just want you to be consistent, and when you criticise me for something and then immediately exemplify it, can you understand why I'd get a little ticked off?

Why?

[reinoe]

Why?

Not telling. Just to be obstinate.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Not telling. Just to be obstinate.

Correct!

No kibitzing with reinoe. Focus, class. If you want to beat your head against a brick wall by all means, do it outside the chess center.

reinoe plays at his own tempo, it would seem. Snap read.

reinoe still solid. Don't worry about him yet, maybe not ever.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Why?

Hot take:

Reinoe is like Bobby Fischer. Good chess player but maybe not someone you wanna have a cup of tea and a long conversation with.

Less kibitzing with reinoe, very distracting.

Are you living in the 90s?

AS OF POST #271


My read: maybe scum.

Post #167 and #198 Are lazy. I'm already tired of hearing how confused you are. What pizza is doing is really not that complicated. You clearly have access to the internet so you should have access to some sort of search enging like Yahoo or Google. A quick search would have given you the context of what ATPG was saying. You don't need to know about chess: you have to have an interest in actually trying to develop an understanding and you've shown no interest in doing that. #228 seems to be you being confused, which I've already grown tired of hearing about.

Post #236&242 "I DID A THING FOR NO REASON". Saying "I made a read and it's null /= I'm just gonna say NAI". I've seen people make a reaction test and decide that the reaction is null. You have eschewed that to just "meh".

#247. No effort read.

As for your style: it's spectacularly lazy. I don't mean joking around not solving kind of lazy. I mean just flat out lazy and posting to post.

So it's lazy for me to expect that other people should post in a manner that is easily understood without having to google things? More specifically, I have literally no chess knowledge, and so I wouldn't even know what part of the post quoted in 167 to put into google. I'm already tired of talking about how I tried joking about something and thought about reading someone off of it, but retracted it, so I'm not even going to address that point. I would love to know what you think I need to do to make a read worthwhile, because while you call post 247 a no effort read, you are missing 2 things: Firstly, me reading him town there was not just from that one post, but from his consistently natural behaviour congruent with standard town Zack gameplay, and secondly, I was joking in how confident I was because of his comment about him being annoyed with people strongly townreading him for no reason.

I love hearing someone call me lazy when I've posted 3-4 times as much as them. You claim that I'm posting just to post, but it's D1, that's my standard thing until someone actually makes a post that I feel I can make a case on them off of, and that hasn't happened yet. Thus, small jokes and reads. Quite frankly, the way you phrased this post makes it seem like you are trying to provoke me/insult me, and I think I should probably take a break so that I don't lash out more.
