A few things concerning the roles.

Little Red Cap is told she's an ordo, right? And I take it that Fairy Godmother's identity is revealed to the Fair Maiden if she guesses her?

Also, the game looks maybe a bit unbalanced in favour of the village as there are several roles with the ability to find out/kill a baddie. Like, in theory it's possible every baddie is found out by the lover teams/Fair Maiden by day 2...
Uhm, well 9am EST for me, I guess in GMT it's 4 hours before...I think.

Little Red Cap is told she is an Ordo. The Maiden would actually only know that one of her 5 guesses belonged to the Fairy Godmother, not which one was her, she'd only be told about the extra guess she's earned, after she's given them all. I was thinking the same thing about the balance, that's why there are roles I'm willing to drop. Though the guessers would have to be pretty lucky to be able to guess all the baddies, especially if there are 18 or more players. And let's say you all lynch Cinderella Day 1, well then Prince Charming becomes basically and Ord, so he wouldn't be guessing anymore. I will think of a few changes though to some of the roles (eg, Cinderella will not be given Prince Charming's guesses, so if he dies by guessing Old Witch she won't know his identity) Aswell, the lovers can't reveal themselves, so if they discover a baddie they can't come forward and say "I'm the Princess and this is who BBW is". And really they may not care, if they become lovers their goal will then be to last until the end, they don't really care who wins aslong as they survive. So it may not even be in their best interest to reveal the baddie they may or may not have discovered. See it's very hard to know exactly what could change the whole game, and what may never even happen. But I am reviewing everything very thorougly, so there will no doubt be some changes.

Rumpelstiltskin was the only honest, helpful character, and he gets played by a spoiled brat!
I will go find it and read it, right now. If Rumplie makes it to the end and wins then that exert could be useful. Thanks for the tip, and thanks for playing!
