Obviously Newbie games are written such that they expressly allow this
But even then, only with one dedicated mentor
Sorry, it doesnt damage the game in any way if I speak about it with my irl sister. Thats riddiculous.
What exactly do you mean by backseat playing? Just so that Iām sure I understand.

Talking about the game.
Talking about your reads.
Not ācopy+paste the words of the other guyā
To someone else thatās not part of the game with the intention of getting their advice?

With who
I would agree discussions with your sister are probably fine
But if youāre, like, actively coaching someone, or getting advice from someone much more experienced on the forum/giving advice to someone much less experienced on the forum, then thatās pretty expressly against the rules
There may be no leaderboard
But people are putting the time and effort into the that youād expect from a Ranked mode
Iād expect you respect that and honor the rules
Oh well. Should have written that down anywhere. Is that another one of these unwritten rules no tol player knows?
Thatād be cheating to me. You donāt represent your own skill anymore then and you take credit for someone elseās thoughts.

And sure
Occasional bending for fun? Go right ahead
Iāve definitely messaged both @Arete and @Mistyx when they were the last Mafia to ask them who they were killing and wish them luck
But like
I havenāt ever started giving them advice because thatās no longer bending a rule, thatās not expressly violating one and changing the outcome of the game
Like having 2 people solving for 1 slot/figuring out how to lie for 1 slot.
Is terrible and shouldnāt be allowed unless itās a specifically stated hydra game or bastard game

There is no trap
Nothing is hidden
I canāt believe weāre painting the publicly available rules as some kind of anti-ToL-player mechanism
