Whoops, sorry. Yeah, that's how I understood it - one day cycle meaning at least 48 hours. If she came back at the beginning of the night, the wolves could just finish her off again.

Yes.

Obviously. therefore I was wondering about some kind of a limbo...

But yes, it sounds more practical that a Night killed visiting-gifted just stays here longer than a Day-lynched one.

So no-one goes back to the Living Thread in 24 hours aka. spending only one "shift" here?

That's actually even worse I thought. Totally freakishly slow looking at the situation we're in.

So a Night-killed spends 48 hours here (D+N), but a Day-lynched spends 72 hours (N+D+N)!

Yeah, if it's that way, the game will be over by the time they go back. (If they do.)

Yes. Well almost.

Quick counting with average ratios of dead...

lover lynched D4 - goes back D6 (if goes back): the tally then 6 villagers left - add the lover (7 villagers left) and it's still a game if there are not more than three wolves living at the time...

Blah.
