If they were going to fake a restriction though, wouldn't you expect them to be doubly sure how they were going to go about it before committing? It strikes me as an especially convoluted and weird thing for a hydra to make up in particular on D1, when coordinating a hydra can be a difficult job anyway, especially if said hydra is scum. And given the size of the game, being able to successfully coast through D1 could be of limited advantage anyway considering there'll likely be lots of phases.In post 490, T-Bone wrote:

What a fake post restriction if I've ever saw one.
I'm skeptical for other reasons that I'll discuss with the other players, but we can start there.
Look, I am aware that if the restriction is real I risk wasting your word counts or whatever, and you're limited in your ability to explain... but how everyone else reacted is exactly how you would want if you were faking a restriction. Sorry, thems the breaks.- Enchant

That's a correlation != causation. It's players who aren't getting townread by myself or my townreads. I'm hoping a few of those players will say more and get ruled out.In post 496, Enchant wrote:Did you just pull all lurkers in list.Bruce: Terry.

are where I'm most expecting to get a successful D1 hit, based on PoE combined from myself and the players I (relatively) trust.
Right now I'm most interested in any takes which can help narrow down that pool of 11, including elaboration from those players themselves.

The mistakes are the reason I decided to call attention to it. I was suspicious when I first saw it but wasn't gonna bring it up right away. Maybe I should have let them make a few more mistakes before I said anything but that's on me.In post 501, MalcolmTucker wrote:

This is a strawman, I'm valuing townreads from the players I read as town.In post 506, Galron wrote:

I wouldn't say I've dug in particularly hard so far as such - just that I'm getting a decent town vibe from them. I wasn't keen on Frogster's push where they basically backed off at the same time but that was more me being suspicious of Frogster than anything else. But, of course, if Frogster is scum feels unlikely they'd want to throw any shade onto Luke at all this early in the game if Luke was a teammate.

Are you asking why Malcom thinks it is hard for me to dig in?
Can you tell me what led to that question, because pretty sure that Malcolm never said that about meI have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!

This is funny to me, because this is the least serious I have taken a game in a while.
I would not say that I was being particularly serious until the moment I did meta on Rad and voted himI have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!

My opinion on the Hydra posting restriction, is that if it is real he is likely in a neighborhood with Sun.
That would give the slot an outlet to talk as much as they waty, and a way to keep communicating after they have run out of words (Jin getting Sun to "translate" for him). We also know that there is at least 2 claimed neighborhoods at this point. Could be with Toog, or could be a 3rd hood.
That being said, I don't really have strong feelings about whether the PR restriction being town or scum indicative. I feel like, if it is real, STD had the idea as a way to represent Jin's flavor of struggling to communicate early on in the show before he learned english, and it likely would have been an idea before he randed the flavor alignments.I have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!
