Game concept: werewolf in sheep\'s clothing
This is an idea that's been kicking around my head for a couple months, and it's time to flesh it out. Here it is, in a nutshell:
I start a werewolf game by posting a round of sheep questions.
If the wolves get a better average score than the villagers, it goes night, day, night. If the villagers get a better average score than the wolves, it goes day, night, day.
Then the surviving players play another round of sheep, to see if phases 4-6 will be night-day-night or day-night-day. The same for 7-9, 10-12, etc.
On average, it should result in the same number of nights as days; in practice there'll be some randomness (and, yes, some unfairness according to which team has the best sheep players on it.)
Soooo...
* do you like the idea? would you play it?
* would you trust the wolves, just on their honour, to submit independent answers to the sheep?
I wish I could, but frankly, I don't. I could use "outside" questions, which makes it more like family feud than sheep, so that identical submissions don't automatically boost each others' scores, or something, but I'd like a better solution for that.
Suggestions welcome.
