Re: [werewolf] Options: recruiting and simultaneous nights

[Joe Christensen <jchristensen@mcm.edu>]

I thought somebody said a failed-bite target should live and learn the 
identity of one of the wolves/mafia.

I also think that the bite conversion gives the baddies a pretty strong 
trump card.  If the village only sees "NOBODY is dead", then nobody can 
trust previous information turn-to-turn.  Especially if we allow the 
seer to turn.  I think the seer should lose their seer powers when 
bitten - they can still pretend to have the powers.  I think this 
because the seer role is to balance the advantage of the wolves knowing 
who the wolves are and converting an active seer would over-tip the scales.

Are we including the hunter/vigilante role - gets to shoot a wolf/mafia 
each night - might shoot an innocent -- Or is only allowed to kill 
people who chat during the night! Alternatively, perhaps there should be 
a role to cure a wolf or rehabilitate a mafia.  I wonder if, since the 
wolf/mafia have the choice between kill/convert, maybe the angel or 
police should also have optional functions - either traditional role or 
cure/rehab a villain....
