'mayor games' doesn't literally refer to revealed mayors, also roles that can confirm themselves. See: Escort, Transporter, any revived role, Lookout, Sheriff, Investigator, Veteran. And even if whispers are useful for Town, this still won't work. Its own ability is incredibly powerful already. Giving it whisper reading buffs it unnecessarily. I agree, we need to remove whispers entirely, or find a better alternative. Whisper reading should be exclusive to NEs and should not be used by Mafia. It unnecessarily nerfs the NK giving it less ability to communicate.
