So, the basic question is, do the Queen's powers go through or not, right?

Self-interest says "yes," but a coinflip is a heckuvan entertaining way to go (especially if my side wins after it all!)

I'll try to approach this from as unbiased a perspective as I can:

1). If the Queen's triple vote pick does not go through, the game is decided by chance.
2). If the Queen's triple vote pick does go through, the game is decided by her judgment.

So 2). looks marginally better, but it's still not quite fair...

If we want some reaaaaaally interesting Night dynamics, what if to even out the race we gave the last Wolf an extra kill?

Game is now decided by Queen's and Wolf's judgment, a nice little "guess what I'm thinking" dance. Also really stressful, and would slightly skew the stats in the Wolf's favor, since the Queen could pick the (surviving) cobbler.

And just to be sure: did the pick go in before or after narration came up? "same minute" does not equal "same time."
