That's a terrible tack-on new mechanic, that will barely make an impact on most games, while adding unnecessary complexity taking away headspace. Expecting extra 5mins of game time per player, with frequent "damn I should/shouldn't have been underdog that round, I wonder how that changes things"

I wasn't, but now I am. Thank you!

I emailed them for refund as I can't make it anymore, but never heard back so more than happy to pass it on, just need to figure out how ;)
