This would allow me to do things such as:

- Reduce impact of a player’s vote during a talent show if they have a friend in the current performer pool
- Fetch friend stats for the purposes of making an offline friends leaderboard
- Reduce likelihood a pair of friends are both the murderer and sheriff in a murder mystery game
- Spawn friends closer together in social or combat environments
