And it was mad fun. Remember how Kuruwolf convinced the village I was the one in need of a lynching?

It was amazing...

So yeah. I'm up for just a seer. I really don't care about the other roles.

I agree we need a seer and don't need a hunter. Ranger is nice, but not necessary. And Valier's playing? I pray don't make me a wolf and her and her gut-feelings innocent...

You *were* in need of a lynching. ;-)

As for my playing this time...

I guess I'll leave it up to everyone else. I'm not sure its entirely fair to anybody that I'll be going into it knowing that I'll be missing a Day.

I'd say you should play.

Firstly it would be nice to have you around from a long time.

Secondly it's not that unusual that someone has to skip one Day. It becomes a problem if someone has to be away longer than that. And with a village this big it's even a smaller deal.

Thirdly your joining in would stop our wawering between four or three wolves as with 19 it would be pretty clear.

That's my viewpoint. What do you others think?

That's exactly what I expect to happen the moment I'm not here to defend myself.

For some reason I generate fear and paranoia...I have no idea why.

But I'll play.

Farael has just left Hobbiton.
Now, I don't want to be a pain, but am I the only one who thinks that adding an extra wolf is MUCH more of a disadvantage to the villagers than adding a couple extra villagers would be a disadvantage to the wolves?

Let's face it, it's darned hard to nail a wolf (Unless you are Farael who always knows ) whereas having a couple more villagers does not make THAT big a difference. True, the wolves need to survive an extra day or two, but then they also have more people to hide among. The higher the amount of villagers, the less likely they'll stumble into a wolf by pure chance!!

Therefore, I vote for 3 wolves, no matter how many villagers we have... and as such, I'd only like to have a seer. The hunter is a bit of an 'unnecesary' role, and not having a ranger makes it all much more fun!

Hope it's not too late to add my cent and a half.
