When a murder occurs, the vitals of the impostor would suddenly experience a short surge at the same time as the victim's flatlines. If you're quick enough to catch the surge while monitoring vitals, congratulations! you have found the impostor.

** This is believed to be the reason for the "An unknown error disconnected you from the server" mass disconnect issues reported in Hide and Seek lobbies, among other issues like seeker Impostors killing you from an absurd distance away or some tasks like Medbay Scan taking a while to actually start after you click them; so many people playing that gamemode at once putting too much stress on the servers.
