I find hydra's really frustrating to deal with. Since they are generally formed because the 2 players don't have time to play the full game by themselves, I think it is perfectly legitimate for them to post less because both players admit they can't give the game enough time. So if there are big gaps in posting I think it is easily explained away by a lack of communication between the two players. Also, their ability to having 2 different sources for posts to be coming from makes it really hard to make reads.

I fell hard into the trap this game of not holding questionable play against people. I felt really adrift on the criteria I was using to scumhunt. That really showed itself in my speculation on how scum were acting and my lack of hard stances early on. I felt like I was having to decide whether questionable play meant scum or if it meant town. Instead of NMM3 where I just pointed it out and pushed for it. Acknowledging the WIFOM aspects of newbie meta really hurt my confidence.

I definitely got lazy towards the end. Already I am pretty uncomfortable repeating myself or making spammy posts. But that was exactly what I needed to do day4. My case against slOosh was already made. I wasn't going to add much more too it even if I went back. But I blame myself for not bringing it back up over and over to keep it in the spotlight. I made my point against slOosh, figured that should be enough, then moved on to trying to figure out the scumteam. I never should have moved on until slOosh was dead.

slOosh did a great job of controlling the thread without immediately being drawn out as scum.

NightFury played the hapless noob extremely well.

J&H confused the hell out of me (though I blame most of that on them being a hydra).

Phagga tunneled Chocolate a little too hard, though I blame myself for not bringing him around.

Alderan, I really should have just started pushing people who would have cleared you early. Right from the start I realized we were thinking pretty similarly. If I had taken action to get a town read on you I think we could have torn the thread up.

Ghost, when you posted those 2 quick posts after slOosh's defense, I decided you either just made a very very bad play or you were scum. They did sound rushed, they were contradictory, and they showed you sided with slOosh at that point. Whether or not that was true, that is how they came across. I didn't have a full case against you. But for me, just those 2 posts were enough. I should have realized that slOosh wouldn't have taken the risk of bussing you with his day1 case. But with how easily those suspicions were dropped by slOosh and Alderan, I thought slOosh might have been just being extra sneaky.

k2hd, the fact that you were not posting often and you were posting extremely safe put you on both my radar and Alderan's. It took a scum vouching for your innocence before we would believe you. The scum team had you pegged as the DT day4. You in all likelihood would have been hit that night even if we lynched correctly. If your schedule permits it you have to take a more active role if you want to avoid being hit for looking blue by scum.

gumshoe, it saddened me a bit to watch you get frustrated with the game and just start posting things that were wrong or had no benefit to the town. You showed last game that you can look at the game from a different angle, which is extremely valuable. Instead of looking at the lack of activity as a bad thing, take that opportunity when you know that the town isn't going to be posting new things that you need to respond to to read filters and generate content.

zelblade, you need to start siding with me over slOosh. This is the second game you have picked up his cause and then offered a weak case against me. I wanted to believe that you were town. But the way you pushed me felt so much like SNMM7 that I started getting suspicious, and it also reduced my suspicion of slOosh. You threw a monkey wrench in my understanding of the game.

Janaan, sad you got hit.

With the lack of a vig hit night 3 and with a roleblocker in the game. It is a pretty safe assumption to think there is a dt in the game.
