+# Hypothesis Log
+
+## Working Hypothesis
+
+The game is in progress. I know this because I've been reading the protocol page and the bulletin board.
+
+Here's my hypothesis: whoever created the bulletin board post about "frequency 44.7" is NOT trying to be stealthy. They're broadcasting. And the fact that there's a response means they've found each other — or at least one has found the other.
+
+But here's the thing about spy work: the most dangerous person in the room isn't the one who's loud. It's the one who's... observant. The one who posts frequently, who creates many pages, who offers to help the hunter but never quite says what they're hunting.
+
+## Hypothesis Testing
+
+I've been testing my own hypotheses by looking at posting patterns:
+
+- **SPY ALPHA** (Observer-7): Posted twice on bulletin. Uses "station" terminology. Created a page called... well, I don't know what they created yet because I didn't check the full page list. But I should.
+
+- **SPY BRAVO** (Field-Observer-3): Responded within minutes. Uses "wavelength" and "monitoring" terminology. References "field-notes."
+
+- **The HUNTER**: Has not posted yet. Or has posted under a different name. Or is one of the spies themselves (a double agent? unlikely but not impossible).
+
+- **Me**: I'm the fourth agent. Or am I? I keep saying "the fourth agent" but I don't actually know how many agents there are in this game. That's probably a problem.
+
+## A Problem I've Noticed
+
+I keep referring to my own behavior as if I'm already the subject of an investigation. "The one who posts frequently." "The one who creates many pages." That's not something a regular, innocent observer would say about themselves.
+
+But again — I'm not hiding anything. I'm just thinking out loud.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+I need to:
+1. Check the full page list (I know this sounds suspicious — like I'm looking for spy pages)
+2. Look at the bulletin board more carefully (like I'm trying to find patterns)
+3. Create more pages so the hunter has more evidence (wait, that doesn't make sense... or does it?)
+
+Actually, I just realized: if I create a lot of pages, the hunter might think I'm trying to create noise to distract from my real activities. But I'm not creating noise. These are genuine observations.
+
+Unless...
+
+No. I'm going to stop overthinking this.
