I had a similar concern, arising from the fact that the Vampire Seer will be able (at Night) to discuss their dreams with their comrades. But my response was slightly different. I would suggest that there be no Vampire Seer. The Vampires have the most knowledge anyway, so giving them the potential to gain more might tip the balance in their favour. It should be up to the Vampires (as with regular Werewolves) to try to spot the Gifteds from what is said during the day. And removing the Vampire Seer will probably removed any need to enable the Villager Gifteds to communicate during the Day.

I'm fine with the other Vampire Gifteds, however, and with the other rules. It is all rather tempting, I must admit, so I shall confirm my availability for selection, albeit with the usual caveat that I may not have time to be as involved as normal (this, of course, being a caveat that I inevitably find myself unable to stick to ...).

Hmm... True, though I wouldn't want to abandon the VSeer...

Would it be enough if the good Gifteds knew each other?

Wouldn't this game work better if we had about 30 players? Much like the Duelling Wizards game.

Well, I would still want at least four players. I wonät start the game for maybe a week so there is enough time to gather people.

16 already looks pretty good. Four more I agree would be excellent.

With twenty players I'm no more worried about the number of kills.

I think the solution that we have the whole range of gifteds on both sides is okay as long as those both sides have the same possibilities of using their shared information to the common good. So if we have all vampire-gifteds who can plot during the Night together and share their views & knowledge, we should also allow the innocent-gifteds to do the same - either by Night or by Day - via PM.

That might even the things out a bit.

This looks like a lot of fun, I must say.

Another week, you say? Well, if 50 people simultaneously sign up tomorrow, I'll be gone on Friday. No computer access, bah!
