JonathanDark has expressed concern that as soon as the next Race starts, a two-Snail conspiracy may win it immediately upon it starting (because although a single lone Snail has to wait for other Snails to move before they can move again, a two-Snail conspiracy has no such restrictions).

I’m not as concerned about a 3-person conspiracy, so no need to struggle to push it up to 4.
