It seems balanced to me - if the village wants to bid for the night kill then they're spending money they can't spend on other services, and allowing the wolves to bid for things like the seer. In addition, in my experience giving the village a kill usually works to the wolves' favor - they most likely kill someone they shouldn't, then become a lynch target, etc, etc.

But maybe you're right that just having the wolves bid for it would be the way, I'm not sure. There was an imbalance in the sense of the village having a lot of bidders, and while the wolves could pool that didn't help them out in this game much. Maybe limiting each person to one bid.

I see what you mean about the duke role - I guess I expected the role to be a bit self serving and so not necessarily helping the village. But as i think I said to you privately I probably wasn't considering that in a game without roled villagers there's less downside to duking. My original conception the Casino Owner's victory would be having more money than anyone else, in which case it definitely would have not been a help to the village. I thought that would screw things up too much though.
