Even though this was a village of 20, six wolves would be really much. How many innocents there usually are against one wolf? Five? With six wolves it would be one wolf against about three innocents, not to mention two nightly kills...

Can the wolves kill each other during the Night? If they don't know who the others are (see my post above) that could be possible I think. Now Menel is the first thing that came to my mind, but on the other hand his death narration doesn't look very much like that his death was caused by wolfish creatures.
Wolves killing each other would however balance the situation, even if there were six (or five, as Menel's dead) wolves. In the best case they could do our job and finish each other off.

...or then not.
There are 13 of us still alive. If there were two wolf packs with three wolves in both, we'd still have five wolves left.
If we lynch an innocent toDay and the wolves kill two innocents toNight, toMorrow there would be 10 left - five of them wolves. Now I don't know if the wolves could win as separate groups even though the number of them matched the number of the innocents, but I'd rather not take the risk.

It's 3.45 am, the sun is rising, birds are singing, and I have to wake up way too early 'cause I'm going to see Lommie and some other friends of ours at noon. I'm not sure if I'll have time to post anything in the morning, but I'll be back by evening.
