Wow, I must say it looks really very interesting (now that I finally read the rules as whole). Only let me raise some questions. First, what bothers me, is what
Macalaure already said, yet it did not seem to be answered:

Because I imagine it the way that every Night the sub-mod simply cannot sleep but stay awake 24 hours, and the wolves anyway need to send their kills a long time before the DL so that there can be eventually some re-sending if they pick a wolf etc. And still the Wizard needs to be informed and everything... so did it really work, or was it that every night only half of the wolves voted or something?

Well, that's another thing that bothers me after I read
elempi's last note that
Nogrod posted. After thinking about it, I realise it can be really bad for the GW to scry on Night One, on the other hand, if he cannot pick a Gifted, he already has significant deficite. I disagree with what
Roa said here, however, because you have to count with the possibility that both the Wizards pick the same people, or worse, the GW picks two wolves and the EW: this is almost total victory for the good team even before the game itself started.
Concerning the possibility of GW picking the EW on Night 1, let's not forget that the EW can likewise pick the GW on Night One and we have the same problem. No, I think the possibility that one Wizard reveals another on Night One is not such a problem: after all, they can now decide whether to try to tacticise and wait or whether to bet on the village (resp. wolves) and choose to duel the other Wizard right on Day 1. But I think, after all, that the GW should be allowed to pick his one Gifted on Night 1. In the worst case, he saves a wolf and so the village will start with two wolves on Day 1. But I don't see this as a big problem and anyway, how often this happens?
