i dont see a forced single solution only a "no matter what black does its mate" after Nd4...

[DkKoba]

been trying every combo of move, only lines that lead to a 2 turn mate are after Nd4

[DkKoba]

all this puzzle talk really is doing the opposite of what we want to happen

I want to have fun, what are you here for

when i'm playing mafia my morality is simply winning is good and losing is bad. i love chess but i don't want to lose, ya dig?

its ok i just claim king here and scum have to wonder "is that koba wifoming or not?"

[DkKoba]

I'm not interested in the chess playing either, really. Just want to solve or whatever.

VOTE: Virgo

[DkKoba]

Someone wanna give someone who has never used dice tags a super quick rundown?

If winning actually gets you something I want to try

glory at showing off being good at chess puzzles.

so far they have been fairly simple.

i used to do these within like 5-30 seconds on chess.com, 2 seconds for the easy mate in 1 puzzles

[DkKoba]

what do yall think about after we lim d1 we force mafia to kill?

a mafia controlled kill for me is easier to read than a town controlled one.

[DkKoba]

I tr bugspray and Koba. perfect question from bug to isis, and Koba flipping the vote when yall are trying to speed wagon me, feels really towny to me

pocket attempt denied.

[DkKoba]

That took me a long time to work out

>.> i already figured it out well in advance i just didnt list the exact solutions because a proper puzzle has only 1 solution.

[DkKoba]

I have an idea on who it is

[DkKoba]

welcome to the era of multiple epicmafia players on MS who are used to nyoom gameplay

[DkKoba]

I tr bugspray and Koba. perfect question from bug to isis, and Koba flipping the vote when yall are trying to speed wagon me, feels really towny to me

weird to say "yall trying to speedwagon me" when i'm the one trying to create a wagon

you need a wheel?

[DkKoba]

shit ive been duped into tryhard mode

[DkKoba]

Maybe but you couldn't have felt you were in any real danger. Scum wouldn't quick elim you even if you were at E-1

i can link you to so many games where scum just quickhammer .. its usually a scum thing to do and it happens often

[DkKoba]

There's no night kill; a 1 for 1 doesn't sound as good as a 2 for 1

Idk what the benefits of quick hammering day 1 is for scum so perhaps I'm not qualified

It's so easy to go "oops didn't realize E1" or "yeah I also SRed X" and everyone would just believe it

thia ^^^

[DkKoba]

hey some towns aren't the brightest

[DkKoba]

DK can you link an accidental quick hammer by Town then?

no, only intentional ones

[DkKoba]

i quickhammered a person i said i townread into getting nightkilled once, thats how powerful i am tho. and then that person got sitebanned.

[DkKoba]

here's an exercise for everyone though, how many scum do you think there are?

[DkKoba]

White to Move, Mate in 2

Don't you just move the rook to F5 and that's mate? lmao I'm bad at chess, this could be so wrong

Rf5+->

Nd5->Ne6++

Nbd5

i mean theres also a queen line that works...

how many solutions do i need to give

[DkKoba]

oh wait the queen line is the one thats the solutions

[DkKoba]

Qd5+, Rxd5, Ne4++

[DkKoba]

ez puzzle just need to write out the notation lol

[DkKoba]

andante what do u think of raya

[DkKoba]

wait nvm im so dumb

[DkKoba]

I like raya, she’s seeing exactly what I see I think

i think she is scum here

[DkKoba]

Ra6 forces either:

B(b-h)(7-2)->Rxa7++
bxa6->b7++

[DkKoba]

tbh im just tunneled on raya rn and i dont see that changing for now until i feel otherwise.

[DkKoba]

tr virgo

[DkKoba]

im actually 3rd party my wincon is

solve as many puzzles as i can and if i reach a certain number the game ends and i solo win

[DkKoba]

its page 12 lol

[DkKoba]

cmon just join me on raya

[DkKoba]

when you find the black king right away >>>>>>>>>

[DkKoba]

Koba, you think that Raya's the flagbearer here?

potentially

[DkKoba]

i think the fact that t3 is convinced theres only 2 scum is a townslip

with 9p and nightless and a flagbearer on both sides i would say that 3 scum is the most likely.

[DkKoba]

I just read and reread the setup and it doesn’t say anything about this at all.

nice try but the number of scum needed to be confirmed before game started(the number of which is "unknown)

ok there is but like it assumes a blunder on the side of black

[DkKoba]

(assuming black's goal is to stall as much as possible)

[DkKoba]

Qe3, fxe2, Qf3++ is mate in 2 but relies on black not seeing the rook being able to take instead of taking the pawn,

[DkKoba]

if it relies on Kf1 then Nd2+ will slow it down to not be 2 moves...

[DkKoba]

are you sure its 2 and not 3

[DkKoba]

A1 Rook take A2 knight
King D2?

if rook takes knight then a2 pawn promotes to queen

[DkKoba]

and that just leaves you with a wasted move

[DkKoba]

(if Kd2+ then Qxc1 unchecks)

[DkKoba]

i am confident enough that whatever solution gypyx came up with can be debunked by at least 1 move by black in between that I will wager 1 point on it.

[DkKoba]

i have tried everything

[DkKoba]

i am confident enough that whatever solution gypyx came up with can be debunked by at least 1 move by black in between that I will wager 1 point on it.

I can pm you the solution if you'd like to formally give up but everyone else should get their fair chance at it.

sure

[DkKoba]

there's a BS mechanic that i wasn't aware of that works >.>

[DkKoba]

bugspray's play already seems very different to electoral college mafia basically in the way it reads.
Koba has been very towny and I honestly don't think scum would wifom pres.

Can you explain what about it feels different?

I don't feel strongly one way or the other on Koba so that sounds like a good wagon to me VOTE: Koba

yes please 1v1 me

[DkKoba]

Andante whats your stance on raya

[DkKoba]

wheres the puzzle i just got home

Sounds exhausting but let's do it

My biggest impression of you rn is you're playing a lot more chess than mafia. Tell me why you aren't scum hiding behind the chess.

tell me why being into the setup theme makes me scum

[DkKoba]

i already think that andante / you / amy are scum

[DkKoba]

tbh maybe i should throw and push a town so we can get more chess puzzles :3

It doesn't. I think the mechanics are cool and if I knew how to use the tags I'd try a puzzle or two. But the majority of your posts being around the puzzles is scummy

no its not

[DkKoba]

ur just reaching LMFAO

[DkKoba]

this is chess mafia. play chess or gtfo

[DkKoba]

ur abusing the fact im super into the theme in order to shitpush me - you have done this kind of push in the past when you were scum which confirms my scumpings about you. this kind of push meaning you latch onto some NAI bullshit part of my game and try to frame me as scum.

[DkKoba]

i literally have been simultaneously playing the game and making stances/comments about the game.

[DkKoba]

the game being... solving as many puzzles as I can

[DkKoba]

i'd buy this a lot more if you weren't seemingly 100% reactive. it seems like you're trying to avoid advancing the game and only doing it when other people want you to like it's a chore which aligns with a demotivated mindset and i'm pretty sure that's more likely to come from scum!koba here than town!koba just because of how i've seen you be super proactively solvey as town a bunch of times before including the recently finished electoral college

no im not

[DkKoba]

also i wasnt in electoral college?

[DkKoba]

if pooky stops posting puzzles ill be more inclined to tryhard more and focus on the overarching game


if im scum im more likely to be panicking harder because theres a flagbearer that isn't me that i need to somehow hardcarry - bc clearly if im scum im not the flagbearer

[DkKoba]

idk i just came up with that logic and it feels pretty sound in my head.

[DkKoba]

no..i never joined that game

[DkKoba]

So, I feel like Koba has done more than Isis this game, sure they haven't done a whole lot towards finding scum, but like, idk, the people constantly playing chess just distracts from this.
I like how Koba unvoted me when votes were flying at me, Koba's the reason I wasn't at E-1 so I kinda tr them for it

i really don't like this. koba voted isis after she did a naked vote and you went from e2 to e3 and then afterwards someone voted you. i doubt that the person who put you back at e2 would have put you at e1 if koba didn't move their vote.

isis has done less than koba, but doing more things does not equal more town. koba is a high volume player (i once made a graph titled why you should shut the fuck up when they had nearly 50% of posts in one game)
it's like the difference between apm and epm in starcraft. if you select units and don't do anything with them that's not a useful action and doesn't count towards epm because it's a useless action. if you look at the amount of non(chesspuzzle/fluff) posts in koba's iso and then scrutinize them it probably won't look as townish as i think you'd expect

Is hyperposting scum indicative for Koba?

Absolutely fucking not

All raya is pulling is trying to frame me with NAI stuff.

[DkKoba]

That being said: there's a part of me that thinks Andante actually leans slightly towards town for how other people are rallying around them?

I'm leaning towards this. I think town!Andante genuinely sees those protecting them or whatever to be in good faith and easily townreads people who do that

Why does scum!Raya who is presumably white knighting town!Adante make this post?

I said andante is scum with raya so go off.

[DkKoba]

Koba has put out a reasonable amount of content and I agree with their Raya read.
bugspray is my NEVER EVER WAGON EVER read so I think this is tvt.

bugspray just dislikes my playstyle and attacks me for it as town consistently so i just ignore.

[DkKoba]

also if you actually look at my content i give a solve, am confident in that solve, and am pushing the game in the direction of said solve. To say im not trying to play is dishonest and the only reason raya is trying to pull that is bc i am v interested in the puzzles and the theme and happen to be pushing on her

[DkKoba]

raya scrambling to find nai reasons to justify a scumread is scum indicative for her. Period.

[DkKoba]

i literally have been simultaneously playing the game and making stances/comments about the game.

Up until you asked to 1v1 me you had 72 posts.

For content you have:
-A rvs vote
-You said andante town stonks are going down
-Voted virgo in response to them saying they want to solve and not play chess
-A post about controlling mafia's kill
-Said andante attempted a pocket
-Voted me
-Said you could link me to games with quickhammers
-"^this" to a post
-2 more posts on the quickhammers
-Asked how many scum we think there are
-Asked Andante what they think of me
-Said you think I'm scum
-Said you're tunneled on me
-Said you TR virgo
-Asked people to vote me
-Said I'm potentially the flag bearer
-T3 townslip
-Mech stuff

That's 19 posts out of 72 and some were 1 word or 1 vote or very short lines

Yes and? Posting style is 100% nai for me LMAO you know i can rapid fire fake analysis for many posts especially on d1

[DkKoba]

I cant read
