the problem with going past 17 is that there is no consensus on when to add the second seer. The pattern used from 9-17 dictates that the seer wouldn't even get a n0 peek in a 19er... which means there is a big chance that the seer dies before getting enough peeks to be useful. But with 2 seers the village can get a lock on the game if neither one dies in the first few days.

also at just 3 lynches per week, games with over 17 players will take 3 weeks or more to play, so I think 17 should be the max
