Another issue with meta is that people change styles between games based on PR and IRL factors.

I get meta read wrong basically 100% of the time.

Reck isn't a shitty player by any stretch, just that he didn't really have a good grasp of my meta. Or maybe being a treestump gave me the freedom to do whatever i wanted without fear of comeuppance. I do feel like my meta swings drastically depending on my role. In short I should always be a treestump.

None of that happened

Reck was scum that game

I was the only player scumreading you and I hadn't played with you before



I wasn't saying I got called out for not raging, I was saying that Reck played with me assuming meta that he thought he knew about me. Go back and read the scum QT

Yeah this too. When I'm having real life issues, I tend to take it out on the people I play with

I always sign because it infuriates me when I get scumread for dissonance when the problem is both heads going different directions at a specific time.

As a general rule, if my hydra partner and I post very similarly (like me and AP) then I will sign the first post I make in a string of posting. If my hydra partner begins posting, I will stop posting, or begin signing again. Otherwise, I usually don't sign, mostly because I forget. Kind of depends on my hydra partner. If they are pretty active then I'll sign more often.

These were the good old days, before F-16 got banned for sexual harassment. Apart from that I liked him.
"i have the sickest grossest feeling that even if it's my lynch today, my townflip still won't lead to a tso lynch, and then he'll find some bullshit way to reason either shooting or lynching gm tomorrow because if there's anyone who can strongarm a mislynch despite his reads or cases being proved wrong time and again it's tso"

I've never played in a hydra but I absolutely wouldn't sign and would actively refuse to.

In fact, I didn't know this was such a contentious subject - I'd probably only agree to go into a hydra if my partner(s) also agreed no signing.

I think it would work even better if the Hydra had 1 nominated poster and we wouldn't tell anyone.

What's the point of doing it, if not to slightly mess with everyone's heads :)

The goal of a hydra is not to mess with people
