Episode 23 is up!

Yet again I'm left with a mess that I can't figure out.

It's fun to watch how you are destroying root's robot factory

And tip for Xterminator:

Will you stop giving the game away! Where's the fun if someone's set-up isn't subtly damaged and no-one notices for six games? That is half the fun of this series...us as the viewers knowing the changes, and them as the players having to figure it out!

I think the viewers and commentators need to stop spoiling the fun!

You can't destroy what doesn't work properly

Disabling factories with inserter rotation is the worst thing you can do. Nobody will notice that until you completely run out of that product. And in this case it still take some time to discover where the problem is.
I think removing electrical pole is better idea, it is much more noticeable for other players.

I thought it wasn't spoiler, because I don't said where. But I put it to spoiler tag if you think that it is.

Dear viewers,

I [INSERT HYDRA PLAYER NAME], player of the Hydra Dilemma, hereby do solemnly swear that I will not look at any spoiler-marked content on this thread, or any other Hydra-related thread, so that such knowledge does not spoil the hilarity generated when things get messed up. I shall uphold this promise even after I have played my turn and I shall be bound until such times that the game has been horribly lost...I mean, completed.

Signed [INSERT HYDRA PLAYER NAME] on this day [INSERT DATE].

Who said that they never ever see what anyone else did? After the own round is recorded they all watch what happened till the last episode before them. And then there is lack of knowledge again for the next 4 episodes.

The oath that _aD proposes would make sense as a new rule though. Until the end of the game, because if no hydra head ever notices that and the head who did it / planned it forget about it, then there's no reason to remind them here..

Not really. It is easy to overlook, but you can spot in also by noticing that there is no action. Not on inputs and not on outputs. Even the animation of the assamblers is different. But if you rip down poles everything blinks like hell, the next player thinks that this has to be fixed instead of thinking that it could have a reason. And the logic cables would also be destroyed. So it's ok to rotate the inserters.

Episode 24

Due to hardware malfunction, the episode is 8 minutes short of what it should be. really sorry about this. The footage is unretrievable, I delete my originals once they are online.

You'll all get a huge surprise when you tune into FishSandwich's episode though. Welcome to the Hydra Dilemma, where even the viewers don't know what the heck is going on!

I really like how you play during this playthrough root

It didn't work, so you don't have to blame the others

And be honest. The short video is just a prank against the viewers to cover up a prank against Fish, isn't it?

Here we go guys, part 25 is up.

Well, it did cover up a prank. But it also covered up an entire build...

IT'S A FISH SANDWICH!
