(lets try again!)

If Le Temps Du Loup passes, replace the following text:

If it is Nighttime, if all living Werewolves have the same target, if they have not killed anyone since the most recent Daytime, and if their target is still Alive, then the Mayor may post a blog entry announcing that their target has been killed. That Villager is now Dead.

with

If it is Nighttime, If all living Werewolves have the same target, if they have not killed anyone since the most recent Daytime, and if the target is still Alive, then the Mayor shall generate a random number from 1 to 10. If the result is 2-10, the mayor may post a blog entry announcing that their target has been murdered. That Villager is now Dead. If the result is 1, the Villager escapes death with a clue. The clue is three names; a list of quorum/2 random villagers, including one werewolf. The clue shall be delivered to the still alive villager secretly via e-mail or some similar means.

for There’s the danger of unlucky rolls giving away a werewolf quite quickly, but I suppose they’ll change their targets a lot, and there’s no way to determine whether a Villager is lying about the clues they’re repeating (or even lying about the attack happening at all).

I don’t understand “The clue is three names; a list of quorum/2 random villagers, including one werewolf.”

What is the clue, exactly?

A nifty Idea, but poorly worded, as per Hix’s comment.

I *think the proposal *means* “A list of villagers of N length, where N is Quorum / 2. The list must include one and only one werewolf, the rest of the list being random villagers.”

I think chivalrybean was giving three as an example, as the quorum at the time was six.

against CoV; the “three” needs fixing. Should also clarify that the Mayor sends the clue via email.

against S/K. I’ll reword, unless someone gets to it first. I will be busy for a little bit.
