Uh, it just makes it harder for your team to win?

EDIT: I have it in for Buzz.

As far as I can tell, that summarization of the Lone Wolf is incorrect. The Lone Wolf will only slaughter all members of a party that he is escaping with. I don't see anything that indicates that if only one school remains on the island and the Lone Wolf is a member of that school and not dead, the Lone Wolf will kill all remaining players in that school. I believe at that point it would be a mad dash to discover the identity of the Lone Wolf. If I am incorrect, I'd like to see what I missed, but I don't think I'm incorrect.

In any case, that's a pretty extreme hypothetical anyway.
If only one team is alive, and the game hasn't ended, it's because someone is still trying to meet his win conditions.

The game ends when one team is left, but since a lone wolf is not truly a part of your team, it will not end.

No. Lone Wolves are supposed to do this.
Well I mean if you aren't a lone wolf. I figure with most schools outed and people not believing anyone is from that school now. Would it be bad if we accidentally killed one, being that we didn't know they were in our school or trusted them about being from our school?

Right, so he'll be slaughtering the remaining players, but it's not an immediate win for the Lone Wolf like leaving the island with him in your party is.

The best strategy I've come up with, once you find people from your school, is to meet them someone and then analyze each other, ensuring that neither of you is the Lone Wolf. Then, instant network!

Assumably, once we meet up with people from our school, we should stick with themA

Of course, if they are the lone wolf they are gonna mercilessly kill you while you analyze them.

Well right, but it's more advantageous for the Lone Wolf to stick with the group until some time just before they are the only ones left, and then the school group has the advantage if the Lone Wolf tries to attack. It's hard to explain, but there is a period of time where it's to the Lone Wolf's advantage to act like a normal student.

Yes, that's true, but I would imagine the lone wolf could easily work at subverting his group and picking off members one by one, until he has the advantage.

I disagree, it is always in the lone wolf's best interest to act like a lone wolf so he or she can be identified and summarily executed.

Man, I leave for a few hours, and the thread goes from 9 pages to 17... I have 50 posts per page. Anything worthwhile reading in all this craziness?

ps: go to the lighthouse tonight, safest place!

Unless everyone went everywhere in a group together, so the attack would be fended off by everyone else.
