INCORRECT!

And when these other students figure it out, you'll be down a knight as well. The truth hurts!

Every time I see you write incorrect, I imagine you yelling it at your screen as you type. It's highly amusing.

The truth is only the truth if it is in fact true. Time makes fools of us all.

Oh man, that's good I'm can't stop laughing.

[Csargo]

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!!!

Oh! Two posts now, I kinda understand this one as well. I'm learning!

[reinoe]

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.

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.

[Kagemusha]

Btw why doesnt this site have any good forum skins ;_;

Insta Vote: Slaan. I made two of those crappy skins you whipper snapper you!

[reinoe]

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

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

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.

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.

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?

[Cuthillius]

pizza there's this guy in one of my classes who reminds me of you quite a lot

it's kinda funny

[Cuthillius]

i have no hot takes to drop

feel like getting >twice as much sleep as i did last night and coming back to this thread is probably the best course of action

[Cuthillius]

i did think dp's been a bit weird and the reaction test was really... stiff and ???

[Cuthillius]

also

logic i think i've always assumed you've played chess because y'know

[Dp101]

Any comments on the current push on me?

I just got annoyed, I'm back now.

[Cuthillius]

I just got annoyed, I'm back now.

fair enough

why do you think you got particularly upset over that in particular in particular in particular?

[Csargo]

Do something useful, make a read.

I'm not a fan of Zack's lackadaisical(not sure if this fits entirely, but I think it does) attitude tbh, which is why I voted him. There's a lot of posts, but I expected more from him even though it's early. It's D1, so I'm not sure if I'm just reading too much into it or not.

ATPG is just sowing confusion imo, being cryptic but posting like it has a deeper meaning, and I feel like that's more likely scum pizza than town. He might just be having fun Rping though, that's also a possibility.

Don't think GH deserves a townread, but I think he's been slightly town, but more null really.

Your actions are odd, not sure what to make of them. Could go either way.

Think WH's posts have been good, but I've been burned before and that's still fresh. I'm suspicious.

Like reinoe's posts so far, look good. Time will tell.

I've got nothing else.

[Dp101]

Being repetitively called lazy for expecting other people to talk in plain english (and yes I know I jokingly wrote a single word in another language but it's not even close to the same order of magnitude) was pretty tilting, as was the apparent expectation that every single thing I posted needed to be 110% solving. In particular, him zeroing in on me as lazy and not having done anything when there were multiple people who have spent far larger portions of their posts today screwing around really annoyed me, especially given that my initial stance entering the thread was that people were screwing around too much. Idk, as much as I call my own town play terrible or worthless occasionally, I don't appreciate it when other people do. The way that the whole thing was phrased also stuck out to me as being designed as insults. I think you'ld agree with me that basically every point he made could have been made in a nicer way, and I could not figure out why he seemingly went out of his way to antagonise me.

Ok, seems reasonable to me thus far. I feel though that right now, Pizza is more likely to just be having fun as town, rather than being scum. I'll probably wait and see with him, maybe his pushes are correct. You can have an extremely light town read.

WALLS OF TEXT ON PAGE FIVE

Zack's good, Csargo is good, DP is good.

Pizza slightly scummy for read on reinoe after they had only posted like 3 times sassing Zack.

Speaking of which I'm going to scum read reinoe for wall of texting.

Just because I think it'll make voxx mad.

[Manasi]

I feel like Slaan is less comfortable than he should be (given that he's played with a lot of people in this game), so chances he randed wolf in his first org game pretty high.

[Manasi]

I chuckled at Winston's posts. +1 for him

Gonna get ready for class and proceed to ignore al of class.
