When I participate as a Player in Mafia, I just get confuseder and confuseder. Even as a Spoiled kibitzer, the game is too confusing for me. I’ll play if I can be a Spoiled Player. > [@Tom\_Scud](#): > > It’s not a huge deal because (a) you only have about 5 minutes to do it and (b) even though the mod allows it, other players might lynch you for editing. Uh, doesn’t this give a big advantage to the computer nerds whose software polls the thread every two seconds? **Vote: Tom Scum** 😃 ---
