Seems bad because the only way to kill wolves will be either seer checks or complete random luck. The whole idea of the game besides using whatever powers you have is to try to read people's behaviors, and nobody is going to act any differently or suspiciously if they don't know whether they're a wolf or not. Could be a fun meta game maybe, but not a regular game because it eliminates one huge aspect of the game.
Oh I was thinking it could be a stupid fun kind of game. Were we would end up killing people for random dumb reasons and just gambling to see if they are a wolf or not. I think it would work better without jobs. Just village voting during the day, and everybody submitting a night vote, but only the real wolves count in that vote. People could share if they voted for the person that is eaten or not, but are they lying? Do they even know if they are a wolf or just happened to vote the same as the wolves.

I think taking away roles would make it even worse. Although that gives me an idea for a modification: everyone is assigned a townie role, but the wolves and solos get fake townie roles and it will be up to them to figure it out because if their powers don't work then that would be a clue (imagine if a fake gunner or priest tries to use their powers publicly and nothing happens, lol). Everyone can submit not just a wolf kill but also take a stab at a wolf power just in case they think they might be shadow or shaman or whatever. At least one player has to be alpha wolf to guard against ties for wolf kill each night (no wolf chat would make it impossible to coordinate).

Maybe wolf chat could start forming when two or more living wolves figure out that they are wolves.

One meta game I ran, Vash had me assign him a role without telling him what it was, and he had to do that to figure it out. It was incredibly entertaining for me, but I'm not sure how fun it ended up being for him.

I’ll catch up. I only just realized I was dead.

Local is good, so unless CG is the SK, Zell is coupled with quagmire the SK

Just my theory

My whole plan for the game was "drop hint that I'm gonna try and kill a wolf to bait one" and if that didn't work then I was looking forward to the eventually NO I SWEAR IM A BEAST HUNTER EVEN THOUGH EVERYONE LIES ABOUT THAT which would have been fun

Shoulda stuck to the plan
I did that once
Also we should probably tag people when they die. Hi @Kat !
someone forgot to do that for me :crossarm
Most of all, you were unlucky that Ants and kut did such a great job quickly picking up the wolves who are dead and dying.

@Ants!

Damn, so Zell is coupled with Fools?
which means i'll have screwed up his interpretation of the game haha

Don't you dare
That’s how I roll
Zell already killed me so he can't kill anybody else.

He rudely didn't even give me an opportunity to say any final words!




Definitely this, but also there can be strategy beyond picking particular players. Maybe you want to avoid targeting the same player that others will target. Maybe you'd like to target the same one. Choosing by some method besides RNG gives you a chance to do that.
i targeted magnet so I could post the ICP gif with my knowledge

it's the theme of the game but... he's one of the coupled.

Or just make a meta where no one knows if they're a wolf. Everyone gets a villager/solo role and everyone submits a nightly kill.

Only the wolf kills will be accounted for at night.
I told Zell about 12 Zell-games ago to make a meta game where all you do is PM him saying use my action on someone and RNG makes shit happen

Assuming Zell is indeed the one coupled with a wolf, killing him takes both out, leaving the town to lynch Ben... the last wolf and known tomorrow. Town wins.

I don't know people's roles for sure, because I haven't been paying a lot of attention, but Alu is on the right track now questioning if the SK is alive. The couple is banking on the idea that the SK is still alive. And maybe it's me, but Zell's played differently. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. Ben is a known wolf and they know there's a couple. Right now the town has played scared of a SK, because they buy Kat as a wolf (which is what the couple wants).

Because I am too lazy to go back through everything, the couple did target Kat to make her look like a wolf?
