Also, as a massive aside, someone I knew (back from the IV community) made this a very long time ago. Quite a bit of a giggle really.

The general rule of letting an NPC be killed off the first night is quite nice to let the villagers start talking, and make sure no one doesn't get a single day at least. The problem with giving the villagers 2 days (or other advantages) is that you make it more difficult for the wolves.

There is a sort of reasoning behind the "7 villagers, 1 wolf; 8-11 villagers, 2 wolves; 12+ villagers, 3 wolves" layout that gives the game a pretty standard length, and gives the villagers chances to play the day, while still giving the wolves the ability to win.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't try and mix things up in order to increase the enjoyment of players. I'm just saying won't someone please think of the wolves?
I've gone for two wolves in this game (even though we have 8 people) to finish it off quick as people seem to have forgotten to sign up (bloke, xarlaxas, bob) and those who didn't have the time at the moment to spare to it (or also forgot) like elD, Wol and Vibs :)

I'll see about getting a larger game going for next month, musing on the idea of 'day' being two days and night being a normal few hours. Trying to get people to talk with having the same processes for the standard game but making the time period last longer? it'd also mean during the course of the game people can / will forge alliances without feeling they have to rush their decisions so much?

I wonder what you guys think of that idea though.

I'm just too pressed for time to play this time around. House first.

However, happy enough to look over the game afterwards and provide analysis, albeit a bit later.

That's fine Ronin, my above post was more about changing the day length to 48 hours or something
