I’m at exactly ms/you/nanook fwiw. Yes, I’ve been consciously outsourcing my read this game. Why? Because when shit hits the fan I don’t trust myself. I was taken aback when chess Poe’d and voted you. I wasn’t particularly surprised by ms/starv. I felt between those two ms was more likely scum.
that isn’t to say you’ve done nothing that I see as sus this game, like discrediting starv and chesskids read of you which def seems self serving.
To be fair nanook has done that on chesskid a few times except in reverse.
Sorry I couldn’t quite hear you, could you say that again?
Yes but I’m in a perpetual state of being ready to hammer

Without the space obviously. suboptimal is the same but with the size set to 2.
this is an odd post
Rationally speaking, even from your POV, one of me and nanook is town so it seems that trusting chesskid here is a play that at least one townie made. If that’s the case, it also seems true that me and nanook could both be town. Thus, perhaps you should try to disregard that particular thing.
I suppose if you aren’t being particularly generous with your interpretation, yes. I’d like to think my decision to sheep chesskid is based on more than just confirmation bias. His reads are prob second best on site (after my own ofc. nah Elli is king) and I think I’d be willing to adopt his poe no matter what it was here.
Again. Not generous, and this one is just markedly false. If you consider the previous ranked game I was sus of nanook and wanted to vote him and chesskid smoothed that paranoia over and he was right. I could name off several games where I’d be better off sheeping chesskid a little more purely.
Actually, we’re exactly playing the game! In a game with a scoring system, it’s silly to get mad at people for playing to it. Actually there’s a strong argument that it’s less sporting to play against the scoring system than to play towards it.
Guys you know that if you treat me as lock town I’m going to get NKed if the game continues right? Like I don’t want to coach you in the middle of the game, but uh…a) I should be fairly obviously town, and b) if you pretend that I am I get NKed and you don’t have to worry about my slot.
It’s silly to put me in the POE, especially based off Urist’s attempt to tank other people’s elö!
I think jake and co.’s contention is that this game does not mirror traditional mafia which is valid
Can you say that one louder so the mafia can hear you.
If nanook dies tonight then I’m mafia
That’s how you actually bait a nk
I wasn’t in the previous ranked game, so I cannot comment.
I don’t believe you will be NKed now that Jake is in the clear.
You do realize this is ridiculous right? Do I even have to point out why this is flawed?
No, I don’t agree to be in the POE. If this wasn’t Ranked, I probably wouldn’t even care all that much. But a POE of MS/Me doesn’t win. That much seems clear to me.
And if you really thought that POE just wins, you wouldn’t be adding Nanook to it now would you?

Sure, but like…to me it’s silly to play a game with a scoring system then get mad at people for playing to that scoring system 
Let’s POE everyone
Maybe this didn’t come across clearly the first time - players aren’t perfect. Nobody has a 100% score here. Not every POE that has ever been formed by Chess/Elli/whoever you want always wins the game. And what you are trying to do here is force me into agreeing to a POE that includes me and a player I TR. You can stop trying to force it and just agree to disagree.

Just for the record, this interaction
Coupled with chess TRing me should honestly clear me. Anyone arguing differently is either disingenuous or dumb
