Chess - Game Thread [Concluded]

[Choxorn]

I think if GH flips scum then it confirms a few of Pizza's musings, it helps lock DP and Winston and looks fairly good for Fred off his exchange with GH (see Part IIB above).

Winston is confirmed town, by virtue of being dead and confirmed town by the host.

I ran past the deadline making up the post, in case it wasn't clear.

Walking into the worst joke ever. No one makes fun of the French except me, but in your defense, that's a far too advanced variation for you.

Oh no, you don't have a monopoly on the French even if they gave you letters of marque.

I hear Nigel Short wrote a book, that one might be more your speed, know what I'm sayin'. It's got 15 pages, and most of that is the notes section at the end of the book.

Translation.

I tried catching up with the last 2 days ish and then I saw people voting me so I just came to check if I was lynched and guys look I wasn't.

Logic scum?

This is why I don't want to rationally break down and compare Zack between those games. Someone else needs to step up for that to happen.

Skimming through the other game just to read Zack's posts D1 with fresh eyes took 30 minutes.

ISOing GH this D1 took me 3 hours.

Zack? We have a long day phase, but it's not gonna happen.

[Askthepizzaguy]

He's got enough variance within his play where I don't know how conclusive it would be anyway, and worse, who is gonna read it.

If it might not be right by a big degree and it's not gonna convince anyone anyway, then your efforts are better directed elsewhere.

Take a look at Fred, take a look at reinoe. I claim these two people belong in the town, and if that's wrong, I need someone better than me to explain why.

Those people either don't have much org meta or don't have infinity posts to analyze or both, and I think they might actually be alignment readable.

For Zack, he's got a profile that looks really townie at first glance, and he managed to wriggle into most people's town lists. Once there, he began acting like a classic Zackthescumbag, and it might not be a coincidence, maybe that's alignment related.

What I can say is that you'd be forgiven at this point for not knowing how to alignment read him. Other people, however, have a game that isn't so wildly up and down with confusing positives and negatives. Some folks here did some seriously good play yesterday and I just wanna know if those people are town.

We find enough townies and it doesn't matter if Zack ever gets iso'ed. I don't care about that.

And in the meantime, if he or GH or anyone who is a fundamentally good solver but looks kinda iffy has a good idea that solves the game, they can do that. Maybe it'll take them flipping town to persuade people, but I'd like to think I'm open minded enough to give it a good look before then.

They got a minimum of 3 days to wow us. In the meantime I'm more concerned with town-building that finding the exact correct person to lynch today. I just want to know who belongs in my town and who I can't safely let pass.

[Zack]

I can't think of anyone off the top of my head who is even that wolfy right now, other than Barto and Choxorn. Maybe Monty or DP for what I still think were red flag EODs. Someone should take a closer look at the wagons.

I'm in an offsite game that starts tomorrow and will be much more active than this one, and Shadow of War comes out on Tuesday. Things seem to be well in hand anyways, don't need me much.

This is not true.

I've made an effort to play differently recently anyways, this game included, so it's a moot point.

I'm keeping an open mind.

In case I'm wrong about what I find suspicious mode helps me to not tunnel. As mentioned, no one was anywhere near as close to confirmed scum yesterday for me than Logic, who was just obvious to me, less obvious to those who don't know his meta.

This is choxorn's only post so far.

This is what he found important to point out.

I feel really weird agreeing with you, but yeah, somehow, he managed to have a weaker post than Manasi, who completely misunderstood EoD.

Before I continue (It's 5am and I'm apparently not sleeping on a school day, so forgive my lack of work so far) the poll question to all remains as such:

Does anyone think any of the above names do not belong as town reads, and why.

Particularly if you suspected them yesterday I'd like to hear your reason for still suspecting them, or if you've changed your mind.

A couple people answered but I have not gotten feedback from everyone. All opinions wanted.

I still think dp had a pretty weird eod

other three are fine, not interested in lynching there anytime soon

Are those other three fine enough to be lock for you? Is anyone lock town other than the dead Winston?

lock is really a term I reserve for someone who is mechanically confirmed town

Differences in terminology aside.

Who would you think it would be a big huge mistake to lynch?

[Askthepizzaguy]

I really posted too soon. An even more relevant question is, can you name someone else besides those names that belongs in the town more than they do. Did you see anything I didn't see.
