Chess - Game Thread [Concluded]

[GeneralHankerchief]

GH Old friend. You do have style, but i dont see you having a case. Is this round about you being scum or not, or do you have a better lynch in your pocket? Because if you dont, going in circles does us little good and is frankly waste of time.

I just want everybody to check in. This is our last 72 hour day phase, we need to use the time well.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Our old scallywag friend has a point. Since he's not doing anything productive, the rest of us should be.

Instead of waiting for a shoe that isn't about to drop (peg leg and all), the rest of us should stop waiting and start isoing.

EOD1:

[El Barto]

Who, Zack? Some might say that's alignment-indicative. Some would say yea, others would say neigh. But then again I do like horsing around.

Have a good knight.

It would seem that you're a bit be(k)nighted by all your puns.

1. The very beginning of the game is not the same as middle of the phase.

2. You can horse around, I don't really care. It's a problem when you do nothing else.

1. Do as Zack says, not as he does
2. Have I really not done anything else?

vote: choxorn

Don't really want to lynch barto anymore

I'm going to bed

and you conveniently skipped over this part too

Thanks for drawing attention to the fact that you were on the counterwaggon.

I feel like making GH cry today and voting for him.

Actually, I think he'd be kind of grateful to me at this point. And dead. So you know what that would make him?

It's not winning unless your opponent cries.

Their tears taste sweeter than liquorice.

cabbage

noose

calzone

Right.

[El Barto]

It's cute that you still think I'm dying today.

Anyway, I never said I thought Logic was "for sure town", I said I thought he was in his town meta.

And Dp's post/reaction was terrible. My read on him changed.

Please explain all three in more detail.
Are you claiming godfather?

[Csargo]

Csargo dont let him slip away. Not now.

I'd prefer not to hammer <24 hours from the start of this day is all.

[Montmorency]

You gave it your best shot. You tried.

The lesson is, never try.

The lesson is, always make the same mistake twice.


Re: GH, the thing about the CFD is that it's hard to believe that the read on DP changes so quickly and dramatically and loudly, for a 'slip' that's at worst a ping in the pocket to confront him with during night or the next day.

Could GH really be a wounded Vietnam vet who's visiting his daughter in town and needs just a few bucks to get gas so he can drive back to the base?

[Slaan]

Boy I'm just overall bothered by GH this game... just skimmed his ISO and nothing makes sense.

- Randomly votes around. First Csargo, then me, then on Cuth which was a seriously vote apparently (since afterwards he tried to get other ppl on it) but didnt bother to give a reason (Post 477). Maybe I missed it since I only skimmed but I dont think so
- Post 487 bothered me, it suprises me that he read me and Fred so strongly even though GH saw a max of 3 games from me apparently (Anni, 1 day of Champ game, Wild West)... over the duno how many games you guys had here on the Org.
- His Logic defence being wrong... for most ppl I dont mind them much being wrong and maybe I expect too much but still
- And most importantly: Where is his solving? Today nothing so far, there wasnt much yesterday as well as far as I've seen... I mean I get he has to kinda defend himself today but why isnt he wolf hunting?

He is just playing bad all over in my eyes... which is annoying as I don't see this happening from either scum!GH or town!GH. Only thing I can think of is him being a bit bored for random mafia yet again. Saw a post from Lime on discord lately and GH apparently randed wolf in at least 4 games lately: Wildcard reuinion, The thing, Xcom, Wild West ..

So yea GH, give us something. If you hand us your partners we promise to lynch you last :)

EOD1:


(I will be away from the thread for at least 6hrs now and then later for another several hours while at work. If hammer falls, whoever is lynched is to stop posting, and the rest can proceed to post in twilight until I'm available to do a flip.)

[Slaan]

I'd want for GH to do _something_ before he is hammered so I'll keep my vote off him for now.

[El Barto]

I'd prefer not to hammer <24 hours from the start of this day is all.

This would mean that you actually have something to do regarding the game during those 24 hours, right?

Belated, but that's too much man.


There's a problem with this game. Despite yet another record-breaking D1 for post count, there isn't really all that much left to analyze. There haven't been many twists or turns, D1 had been relatively straightforward in its course and D2 is non-existent.

So there's not much to speculate on and not much point in striving for that speculation. We blew the load D1 and left D2 without a natural progression.

What that means is there's nothing much left for us to do other than get a flip and suck up the info, which then further railroads the game course and leaves us with even less to do or discuss.

[Montmorency]

Unless GH is town, then it opens up again. But that doesn't change the field today, as it is.

[Csargo]

I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

[Slaan]

There are different definitions? I was referring to end the day early by having (currently) 8 votes on GH which would end it prematurely. Which other definition is there?

I'm fine with hammering GH tomorrow at roughly 24:00 CET (so 24h before the day would be regularly over) if he hasnt done anything until then, as I'd just assume scum!GH to be wasting our time at this point.

100% agree here.... The Logic flip doesnt do much so far... but I'm afraid a GH flip wouldnt do much either since ther eis hardly any controversy about it. Manasi checked inf or a sex and said she thinks he is town without going further into it and thats about it. Idk how would defend GH at this point anyway... especially if he is mafia.

I'm gonna laugh hard if manasi/chox/GH are our last 3 mafia and they feel so defeated rn that they don't even really attempt to play.

[Zack]

I don't get why so many people are acting like gh is outed

[Dp101]

I don't get why so many people are acting like gh is outed

Have you not read the cases against him? They are pretty damming. I don’t get why you can’t see why so many people think he’s outed.

[Slaan]

I don't get why so many people are acting like gh is outed

Why do you think GH is mafia? Who would your lynch be?

[Slaan]

Why do you think GH isnt* mafia

[Zack]

how about you read my posts instead of asking stuff I already talked about

[Zack]

I've skimmed some

I'm unconvinced and it's certainly not enough for the entire game to call him an essentially outed wolf less than 1/3 into the phase

[Choxorn]

It's cute that you still think I'm dying today.

What makes you think you're not dying?

My bad about the double post.

[Askthepizzaguy]

If my townies are all correct the game's over.

Pretty sure one of Cuth or Xiahou is town and if I pick the right one it's gg.

Then it's just a shit ton of phases where we kill the POE starting with the scummiest people.

And it's kind of obvious who even needs to die first. Like Barto seems fine now, for example.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I even think they're both town, so.

Basically what I wanted to talk about today was who doesn't belong in my town, and even the POE'd suspects haven't given me a real good reason why any of them don't go there.

DP101 is not mafia, so that's a no sell. Surprised people aren't even pushing reinoe, he doesn't have meta on this site and enterprising scumbags should think he's gettable.

Starting to see why end of day 1 went so badly for the wolves. They probably saw before we did how badly the rest of the game goes for them, had to do something.

[Askthepizzaguy]

So again, just putting this out there

Askthepizzaguy
Kagemusha
Dp101
Slaan
-------
Fredwood
Monty
reinoe
------
Cuth
Xiahou

Who doesn't go there? That's my tiers and people aren't even pushing against them. The top 4 are just rock solid, and all of day 1 looks fantastic for the next 3.

Xiahou hasn't done enough to look scummy. I mean even if I somehow sucked at reading Cuth, where you gonna put the black pieces to avoid checkmate here?

Basically you gotta wait it out and hope town gets into silly time and lynches above one of those lines. Boring.

I like POE/spreadsheet thinking, but let's not get too excited when the game just began.

Including today we have 7 lynches (assuming standard 1 death per night).

[Reinoe?]
[Xiahou | Cuth]
[GH | Zack]
[Chox
Bart
Manasi]

So there's some margin of error, even if there are no sleeper agents among your lock town.

[Dp101]

What makes you think you're not dying?

Hi. Would you kindly clear yourself if you have the time, or at least, post enough that you become readable. Having half your posts this phase being either duplicates or apologising about duplicates is not the greatest of looks.
