I think that if people put the same amount of effort into the games as they have into this discussion, this discussion would not be happening.

I like the ideas above... Just thought if throw that in there... The idea of having a new person watch or be a civilian in a few games before they're an officer would improve the competitive spirit of the games, but that's not really the point, is it?

If you guys want us to be more expirenced, maybe requiring us to be civillians for 5 rounds won't be bad, just don't set age restrictions. Do not have the officer five times rule. A better rule would be:
1. All who wish to be officer must have been a civillian for (#) rounds.
Or just listen to mnstr.

And, because I feel the need to say this:
It's not just the officer's fault. Only twice did civilians help in this game. (Not including Koko.) And one of those times, I found the help to be in a rather rude tone. Everyone else posted something along the lines of "This clue is easy. You are overthinking it and are stupid." And Littleboy, in that PM you told me you didn't even care about the game anymore. The expirienced users did not do us much good in this game at all. If you guys want us to be better, actually step up and help. You guys are part of the problem, too, and you need to realize that.
You guys aren't superior to us. Please stop acting like we're that big of a problem and listen to TheGenius.

And I really think I know who the Sassy is. If I am an officer, I will be a hypocrite and accuse him during signups.

I know I havn't been active for much of this game, and I apologize. However, I agree a lot with Cedavis6, but I feel like you might be taking it a little too personally. I'm eighth grade, which makes me younger than most of the officers. Even though I don't post much, I do monitor the threads and try to solve clues. And ironically, as soon as I find a possible solution, someone is always already dead. It is difficult to be a younger or newer officer, but you can be very sucessful. I think that has been proved by several of the newer ones. All I'm saying is, CALM DOWN, do your best, and have fun the next round. This is a game and it's supposed to be fun. See you next round! :D
