Hmm...being in Storma's shoes I can understand how this will sound because balance is always hard to establish, but there were too many strong power roles for the villagers with only 3 wolves. I think the wolves did fantastic given the odds against them. Especially good job neutralizing the witness for an extra day. Also agree with limiting the Mason's power to a leader.

Great to be on the other side to see how it works in application.

And thanks to Storma for running a great game.

This was one of the more entertaining things to watch. I enjoy being behind the scenes. It took more time than I thought. It's been a while since I've run a game..

I was thinking about how the wolves could have won and as far as I can guess, it seems like the only way was if they somehow managed to convert the Cursed. But even then, there were 9 people left and 5 were masons. So they would have controlled the vote and even if they managed to lynch the 2 players who weren't wolves, and one of those would have been the cursed. So there was really only 1 chance in 4 that they would NOT have picked someone furry or furry adjacent.

The wolves still had the night though so if they went with the odds, there was a slightly better than 50-50 chance of getting a mason but only a 1 in 8 chance of getting the cursed.

So under the best circumstances, the next day, there would have been 4 masons and 3 wolves. So now the 1 in 4 odds comes into play and it is 75% probably that they would have gotten a wolf (assuming the Cursed was recruited).

Let's say the villagers were very unlucky and the wolves were very lucky. Then the next day, the masons lynch the only villager left. Then that night the wolves would be certain to pick a mason. So now we would have 3 masons and 3 wolves. Then the next day, the masons would be sure to lynch a wolf and that night the wolves would be sure to lunch a mason.

So as far as I can tell, even with all of the picks favoring the wolves, they had no chance.

edit: This does overlook the fact that if both groups voted as a block, there would have been a tie. So more than likely one of the masons or one of the wolves would have had to have voted for their own kind for the lynching. Either that or there would have been a tie vote.

But thanks to Storma for running the game and everyone who participated. Also thanks for setting up the graveyard thread. It was nice to be able to still talk with someone about the game.

Reading over my last post, I realize it's not that clear and it would have only been 1 out of 8 not 9 after the lynching. But still seems like the best the wolves could have done was a stalemate with equal numbers of masons and wolves. But if anyone can think of a way the wolves could have won, I'd be interested in that. Dissecting the games makes us better players the next time around.

...demoralized by how badass the wolves were, the rest of the village ran away.

I think, towards the end, the only thing that the wolves could do is eat a mason, and the masons recruiting a wolf the same night.

Who's running the next one? If no one volunteers by tomorrow around noonish, I'll start the next game.

That would be great! If you want to go ahead.

I would but I can't manage my schoolwork much less a game like this.

@PenguinPower
Why does everyone get your name wrong? Is this some inside joke or something?

I would volunteer, but I'm not sure if you guys want me to.

Go ahead. You did a good job with the last one. I would suggest modifying the Masons into either a limited recruiting model or only one that can as was previously suggested. Going back through my games, the Masons as are seem to make winning very difficult for team bad.

Since I just saw that movie last weekend... I may consider it for next time as an actual role.
The wrongly lynched villager should have some recourse.

Maybe for non power roll villagers, 1/game.
