I think mechanics - not being able to talk about whomever you had a room with, really hurt, so if you could find a game of mine to critique without those specific mechanics, it would be more helpful. I suggest either/both Starcraft Mafia, 1 and 2. Thanks. :)
My 30 second advice re the starcraft games is to post less. In both you (including your hydra buddy, and idk who posted more) were the #1 poster, and it's easy for the good points you want to make to be drowned out in the noise. I cannot speak for the people in the game, but I don't think it's tremendously unusual to substantially ignore whoever is the #1 poster in the game, particularly if there's a substantial amount of posts that aren't actively useful (it's 30 seconds, so I can't say what % of posts were actively useful, but at any rate, a posting rate of >20 per day is on the high side, and in particular was on the high side compared to the other players in the game).

I also think that large themes seem to be particularly poor examples of town play in general, and thread bloat is almost certainly a big part of that story. IMO the standard that is required to have people care about what you have to say is even higher in those sorts of games, given that there's just such a massive amount of noise that goes up against the actual signal of useful info. I'd probably tend not to overweigh those kinds of setups too much in terms of how people engage you, though if there are particular pushes you made or things you said that you thought deserved more care and attention I'd be happy to look into them. Just much harder to try and sift from a >500 post iso and figure out what things in particular you feel like you should have gotten more traction on.
just want to add that i think town play in the large theme queue is typically the worst on site besides normals
