Default How do you play mediocre hands or weaker from small blind?

I have changed how I play from small blind several times. Initially often completing, to never completing, to completing at early levels if pot unraised and I have a pair, suited, or connected (up to 3 gapper) hand (L1-3).

I play NL 400 to NL 1K, so I consider my post flop play to be WAY above the average 109 or 215's postflop play, I don't mind playing pots early on. I'm WAY OPPOSED to the ultra tight till level 4 strategy.

I voted to complete with anything based on the info you presented. However, I feel there isn't enough info to feel comfortable about the decision. For instance, what if there is a raise to you? Would you still complete a three gap connector? What about the structure of the table? Is it a TAG, or LAG? Is it a mix of these? If so, where are the LAGs in respect to you? What is your M? How does your chip stack relate to the other players? These are just a few things to consider with this dilemna.
