That would keep people from playing the "I don't even know the rules so I can't be a Wolf" card.

In this game we must consider who it is that appears to have done this to some extent and determine if they are the sort of person who would play such a card.

Just a comment: off the top of my head, I can't remember a wolf playing the "I don't know the rules" card. It seems to be more of a hypothetical ploy than a real one– or is it something wolves used to do, before my time?

I can remember one who really did have no idea what was going on or what Day it was (and yes, she was considered innocent because of it).
