Yes, this one leaned slightly toward the village after I reworked it for fewer people. I think it was balanced in its original implementation (28 people, one more wolf), but I pretty much had to remove a wolf to make it work with fewer. And I didn't want to screw with the Gollum or Mouth roles, because I liked the way they matched the real story.

I don't use a "point system" like Luckay did, and I don't think his assessments are quite right (the Rider is stronger than the Nazgul, not weaker, for one, and Aragorn is not as powerful as Frodo by a longshot).

The Mouth role needed to be actively "leveling" the village to make an impact. Yes there's a risk that you're giving information away, but that's the risk you take. Voting for random people who aren't in any danger is just self-neutralizing the role's power, and a second roleblock in the first 5 or so days is worth quite a bit.
