yes, i like it.  the good guy role could be called JAFO (just another 
observer) and it's random who/what he sees.  he might be told that A was 
seen doing something.  A might be a seer, or an angel, or a wolf.  (but 
the JAFO is not told who A is or what he was doing, just that A was out 
at night doing something)  And i REALLY like the idea that a single wolf 
might avoid that by selecting "no one" to kill.

this might work to the wolves' favor ... on night one they all select no 
one.  in the morning,  no one is dead, and the angel might come out and 
say, "well, folks I protected myself last night and i guess the wolves 
tried to kill me so now they know who i am, so i'm coming out!" and he 
didn't "need" to.

i like it.
