Wouldn't a hydra account have the potential to look extremely scummy? There's gotta be some discrepancy between the players' reads/thoughts and that's gonna be extremely obvious in their posts.
Typically you have a Hydra QT or just IM/chat with your partner and plan out your posts appropriately. Also maybe the two heads will disagree in public. It's not really scummy on its own.

Are they required to disclose which person is the one making the post? I can see it causing the game to be unnecessarily difficult/confusing for everyone else.
Varies from host to host. Most hosts say "yes you have to disclose"

Much like in the RTS we all love so much, hydras seem to be just bad marines

You need 3 games or fewer - Xalatos has 3 previous games and qualifies. You're playing your 4th atm (Normal Mini III), right?

Ah. Thanks for the clarification.
E: I was only counting newbie games.

Typically no unless the host changes the setup. Don't worry, all things in time

The last game I played only had 9 players and it was kinda boring/slow

slow in terms of activity level... after the first lynch everyone agreed on the next lynch during N1 and there were only like 2 pages of posts created for the rest of the game

Is it adviced to obs a game or two before joining? I'd be interested to join, but I've never played before. This forum section just recently caught my eyes and had me interested in it? What information do you exactly get as obs?

/obs just means that the host will send you the forum where observers can talk about the game in progress; you get no special information but you might get some insight from people watching.
You can jump right into a game just fine, but also I'd advise to read everything you can. There's a bunch of guides in the OP, and you could read through Newbie XXIV and XXV if you want to get a feel for the games.

Already read through a bunch of guides, so I think I got that covered. I'll give it a shot then, I suppose a few newbie mistakes are expected, or at least accepted, in these games. =)
