hydrae are inherently hard to read, and if you're playing a 13p with 12 hydrae, it means it is 12X as difficult for you to get a coherent reads list in place than it is with 1 hydra. by limiting the number, htey are reducing the degree to which those who dislike attemptign to read a hydra with conflicting inner-head opinions ave to tolerate it.

Sure, there are those who pull of hydraing AMAZINGLY well, and they use a QT or PT to fight amongst themselvs, then show one unitied front to the other players, and don't let their protrayed opinions differ by who's posting. But then there are those who will explicitly state that they disagree with each other in-thread, which makes life uber difficult.

Also for hydra who don't distinguish who is posting which post, when people make requests for further comment on a past post by the hydra, they can often times get told "that was my other head", and get thrown off of their reads.

Thirdly, some people are able to obtain reads based on a personality style/psychological trait/ specific things a person says/does, and for those people getting the same level of confidence in a read on a hydra can be impossible because of the two differing personalities.

Note, I have no problems with hydraing, have hydra's myself before, and am willing to play with non-obscene nubmers of hydra in games I play, so this is not jsut someone hating on hydra's, this is my personal experience from what I have seen/experienced in games.

EBWODP:

"inevitable" isn't quite true. It's quite simple to avoid it. Use two separate internet browsers for your two separate accounts (hydra and personal), and make sure to not post in the game for egopost on your main, then when you log into site to check status of games, hit egosearch button, and when that really interesting game you remember beng in doesn't show up in egopost, facepalm yourself, and switch to other internet browser which is already "remember log-in"'d to hydra account, and therefor you use correct account. combine this with not attempting to read the game while at work, and you should have no difficulties with accidentaly hydra slipping
