Small Game - Vanilla WW (Village Wins)

Looking back to do the history thread I see the small games are not given numbers. Because of that I will do a quick basic small game for a maximum of 8 players.

The rules are very generic WW. No backstory other than you are trapped in a room and can only get out when either the wolves win (1:1) and only they get out or the village wins by eliminating the wolves.


Village Roles:
Seer - you can scan someone to find out their allegiance once a night

BG - you may protect someone at night (you will not learn the identity of the attacker upon successful block), you may not protect the same person on back to back nights


Wolf Roles:
Brutal - when/if you get lynched you take a villager with you


Day Deadline: 9 PM EST

Night Deadline: 10 PM EST

Sure, I can play too though if someone who is new or hasn't played in a while wants my spot, feel free to give it to them.

I like this guy.

Now if he could teach my wife to listen that easily....

Just to clarify since this is a message board and sarcasm doesn't always translate. No need to vote for PB, he just has some odd paranoia that I actually vote for him every day one. Not sure where he gets that from...

Wasn't sure about that one to be honest. If the thought is that it will unbalance the game I can remove the cunning.

EF, I was actually going to send a PM, I definitely think having a cunning wolf, with only 8 players is a bit much. It'll be a challenge for the village as it is, without the wolf roles.

Does a seer and BG tip the scales toward the village if there is no cunning?

I don't think so with 8 players. Two bad lynches and kills and the wolves win. Usually two wolves have 10-11 players, so having the two roles in there is fine since there is only 8 players.

Game on. Day one deadline is 9 PM EST Tuesday. Night one 10 PM EST Tuesday.

For the record, the vanilla villagers received the following PM:

You are a vanilla villager.

For lynch votes please bold the vote and seperate it from the rest of the post, if it includes more than just a vote.

No major background to the game. You're trapped in a room. Last night you woke up and found EagleFan mauled horribly. At least one of you is a werewolf and you aren't getting out until you rid yourselves of him/them.

Regarding strategy, since we are in such a small game and there are only two wolves, the seer should reveal after day 1 if they can clear someone or find a wolf. That guarantees another scan as the BG can protect them.

For example right now we are 6-2. If we miss on the first day which we likely will that puts us at 4-2. If the seer reveals, clears someone that puts us with a 50% of finding a wolf and not losing the game on day 2. If the BG or Seer are up for a lynch, don't wait too long to reveal, especially the BG who can protect themselves night 1 and then shift to protecting the seer night 2 after he reveals.

Wouldn't that be the best choice given the lack of information so early in the game?

not always. I know when I am the BG there are times I don't self protect night 1 so if I need to reveal day 2 I keep the wolves guessing.

I think provided that the seer is not revealed that the BG protecting themselves night 1 makes by far the most sense. That way the seer can reveal after night 1 and be assured of getting one more scan in.

In bigger games, it can depend of course. But I think in this small game the BG protecting himself is a good choice.

yeah, but as long as the BG didnt protect the seer night 1 they still can protect them, plus, the wolves would never know anyway.

I'm just saying it isn't so cut and dry.

Clap is his own technical issue. If you talk to him, ask him if he's asked out that girl from the Metro yet. If he hasn't, then I may have to vote him.
