Ok so this guy pretended to be a hacker and said someone else was mafia. He came across as extremely convincing and managed to convince the majority of the town that x, y and z were mafia and we should lynch x first. Well he didn't convince the majority, but he caused enough chaos to get the mafia to win.
Basically, he was a mafia that claimed to be a hacker and won with it. I've never seen this before and I've never seen a rule on claiming to be a hacker. Is it allowed? It seems pretty cheap if you ask me, shouldn't it be banned?
What do you think? Is it as bad as actually hacking? Is it a legit strategy in pub games?
