The reason that I decided to make it a Prisoner rule and not a General one was because Prisoners tend to camp and to hide more often than Officers since they have the possibility to hide and to camp while they rebel or in some Special Days like Hide and Seek for example. Now this also applies to Officers of course, but the thing is that Officers are less likely to delay the game since they have to command and to support their teammates when they aren't commanding.
However, I could be wrong since some people might think that this rule should be a general one instead but that's none of my business.
