Tower of God - 5F

[ika]

right now looking at this game, white has the advantage in position and material

[Numbertwo]

D6

[42shadow42]

I think we may have scared the guardian off with our OP Pawn advance.

[ika]

im already trying to see like 3 moves ahead to help you guys XP (even though you prob dont need it)

gaurdian is going to lose something no matter what basically

[Euphoria]

Pawn sacrifice op

ND5 is best move for white from what i was playing though on the move ideas

it forces black queen loss or a huge maerial loss regarless of what happens next

[Euphoria]

Ika, I appreciate that but I don't think you should help us because then the Guardian might not count our victory as our own.

And yes, Nd5 was the whole point of the sacrifice.

[Apache]

Well mobile internet is slow in the rural area i am atm sry

There are no rules about getting outside help

last time when it was team vs team fragos said you can use any recorces around. And fragos/gardrian has yet to say anything about me posting in here or giving advice. So ya but if yoy dont want it i will not post.

TBH if he disqualified it b/c of my posting it would be quite unfair and imo a jerk move to do such thing.

[Apache]

well, there was also no rule that said we couldnt make up a way to minimize point loss for everyone

[ika]

the fun thing is i ran so many diffrent scnarios and it either ends in one of the following:

A)black being checkmated
B)black losing the queen

and the later eventaly to A regardless

good times

You know, white team has already used 85 or so hours. I'm keeping the track on time, after all. I've checked the chess clock - and right now the Guardian has the time advantage.

You sure you can make it in time?

[_Q2]

Out of 400 hours? Yes. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

If I need to make a move, tell me here, because I don't have Skype access right now.

[Fragos]

The clock is still ticking...

[ika]

85+48=133

400-132=267/24= aprox a little over 11 days...

[Vantas]

Anyone on for this, please get on skype. We need to discuss the next move and not waste time like this.

Attention to all regulars! The test has been ended. The Guardian has conceded from the game.

It is true that while contolling 16 different chess pieces was difficult for each regular, the fact that the white team consisted of 16 people against a single Guardian is what exactly allowed you to plan your moves and win the game against him. You showed up excellent teamwork - especially Astrid, who made few good moves on his own. And now, here is the order of turns in this game:

Turn number	White	Black	Score change
1	e4	e5
2	Nf3	Nc6
3	d4	d5
4	Nxe5	dxe4	+100 for Raven, -100 for Tonex
5	Bb5	Bd7
6	Bxc6	Bxc6
7	Nc3	f5
8	d5	Bd7
9	Qh5+	g6
10	Nxg6	Nf6	+100 for Raven
11	Qh4	Rg8
12	Nxf8	Rxf8
13	Bg5	Qe7
14	0-0-0	0-0-0
15	d6	cxd6	-100 for Numbertwo
16	Nd5	Qg7
17	Bxf6	Rxf6
18	Nxf6	Bc6	+500 for Apache
19	Rhg1	h6
20	g4	f4
21	Rge1	d5
22	Nxe4	Ee8	+100 for Apache
23	Nd6+	Concede

Here are you current Test Points after the chess game:

Vantas	2250 (500 more can be distrubuted between everyone else)
Apache	1450
_Q2	1150
Astrid	1050
Grovylite	950
Raven	950
Cay	750
Euphoria	550
Tonex	450
AlphaStorm	450
Numbertwo	400
Glip	350
louiswill	250
NoctiZ	200
powerofdeath	200
42shadow42	150
Citrus	50

Citrus was not in the last game, but Vantas can still distribute Test Points to him if he want. It's rare to say that, but everyone managed to pass the test succesfully! Congratulations to you!.. is what I would want to say. But it seems than we'll continue onward without one person.

Cay chose to leave from the forums (both Mafia and Marriland), and as such, we most likely will not see him in the future. However, I will keep his Test Points as they are now.

Now that 5F trial is over, time to fulfill that promise. The tests on the next floor, 6F, will be supervised by Vantas! He will have complete control over that floor now. It will take a while before he'll create a new series of tests, and of course he should talk with me on Skype first so that those tests will be balanced and give a fair chance for everyone. After test(s) on 6F end, I will prepare for you a brand new challenge on 7F for everyone, including Vantas. Look forward to it, folks!

One more word. There is also an additional way for you to earn few more Test Points. And that is participation in M-FM Nasty Rumours Too! If this M-FM gets chosen as the next one, and you manage to win that Forum Mafia game, then you'll earn Test Points based on your alignment. So until Vantas prepares the next series of tests, you can bide your time by picking next Mini Forum Mafia in the official M-FM XXIII Poll!

That's all for now, folks!

[Numbertwo]

you promised to reveal the guardians identity. who was it?

[Glip]

you promised to reveal the guardians identity. who was it?

'Twas Fragos himself, of course.

Isn't it obvious?

[Numbertwo]

I know it's obvious but i wanted to see him say it.

[Apache]

fucking guardian wanted me not to get the 500 points, fuck this

[ika]

the guardian (fragos) should play game to end if hes outing points. its unfiar for all players who could of won points

inb4 players do mass boycott

[Fragos]

There was no rule that would disallow the Guardian to concede the game. If you would haved ended up in similar situation, you would probably have conceded the match as well, in order to avoid losing even more points.

Reveal the Guardian please

actualy i would of continued playing as guradian to let players get their points. the fact that you did that is just so someone couldnt reap points.

if it was a regular chess game then yes by all means i would of. but scince players could get points, i would of played to very end

[Apache]

no one would have given up at this point in a regular chess game i think
guardian just did it so we dont get more points => guardian can only be fragos, because if it was someone else he wouldnt give a fuck about us gaining points and just try to win the game

[ika]

yellow: no its a lost cause at that point for black assuming both players are skilled enought o see, so in a regular game blacks ideal position is to resign. however due to the nature of how this game was bing played (for points) its unfair for him to do that.

regular game= could see it
point game (how it was being used)= should be played to very end

OJ: kinda why fragos is being unfair about it it just comes to show he doesnt want to hand out points b/c he made a bad move. i say if this is to be redone have an outsider play guardian and played to very end or at least be fair to players

[Fragos]

Ok, I admit it. I really was The Guardian.

Who else would be able to test your teamwork skills to a full extent? All this time I was serious on trying to beat you, yet I was so sure that combined efforts of 16 people would lead then this far. So let's just close this talk and say that you have earned a well-deserved rest. How long your break will last depends on Vantas. He'll be making tests for the next floor, after all.

[ika]

you could at least compenstate by letting apeach have his 500 points. the next 2 moves were set up in chain pretty much

i personally like this dicussion that was made and tbh, criticizem and stuff like this is needed to help improve adn learn, sometimes the truth hurts but its more or less a fact of life overall

As for 16 players, even if only half or a quater of them knew. Its still favors them IMO b/c they have near infinte resorces to look into.

I may not be playing but i was a player and things like these are what made me (prob RLVG and many others) go kinda IDGAF if host is going to do what he like and makes it unfun for players.

[Fragos]

Sigh... Apache already captured one rook and two pawns for free. And I allowed his knight to roam around the board. You think it was easy for me alone to deal with the most annoying chess piece?

I may not be a pro, but at the very least I tried to enjoy playing chess. I believe everyone else enjoyed playing chess round as well. What can be better than satisfaction of a victory?

The Tower of God is cruel sometimes as well, and already claimed many lives. Many more will be lost in the future. It will be only the matter of time. Well see wherether Vantas will be a cruel host or nice person for the duration of 6F test. Depending in his performance, even Apache might be able to creats future tests for 8F or 9F, so keep that in mind! He already has just as high score as Vantas had just before the chess game began.

[powerofdeath]

I did completely nothing, most people just gave Glip their password and Glip play for us.
