I will say right now, that I probably won't have time to start the game until wednesday.
Would that put someone above me on the queue?

A note of caution: games where the win conditions depend on a few specific roles (i.e. Geralt, Ciri, and Eredin, in this game) tend to self-destruct fairly quickly, in my experience. Neither of my Tarkirwolf attempts, for instance, lasted beyond day 3.
Also, order of powers?
If you open the signup now, and start the game on Wednesday, then the signup will have been open for 3-4 days. That's pretty typical.
Of course it's werewolf. You can still play it in a very similar way, just with the difference of lack of wolf communication.
Which makes it technically not a werewolf game. I'm with Pyure on this one.
However what you could do in a game of not-technically Mafia/Werewolf, is make there be more wolves, design a leadership tree, and let each wolf only know the wolves that are below them in the tree, or one level above them. Then add the win-condition that wolves have to survive to win as well. (I'm not thinking straight, I know.)

How is it not? That's just one part of the ruleset that makes it werewolf. It's like saying if you take the mast off of a boat then it's not a boat any more.
Righto. Its not ice hockey w/o ice, its not baseball w/o a ball, and its not werewolf w/o a werewolf convo.
Or to put it differently: I'm joining games that sufficiently represent the standard framework.
I like what I like? (its like asking a gay person to try hetero. ok maybe thats a bit strong
)Honestly though, I've been "tricked" into enough fringe games that I know I don't enjoy them. I've already "tried", and i'm not willing to try every single variant anymore.
At least I clearly stated that the lovers' game that I ran not too long ago, was not technically a werewolf game.I like what I like? (its like asking a gay person to try hetero. ok maybe thats a bit strong

First I need to say this @Robijnvogel that's what she said
Second and more importantly, it's not strictly werewolf... but that doesn't diminish its ability to be fun. So I'd be up for trying it

The game of Werewolf is, at its core, a battle between the informed minority and the uninformed majority. If the wolves do not have their convo, they're no more informed than anyone else- so they're an uninformed minority facing an uninformed majority, so it doesn't really work.
If the wolves are partially connected, perhaps if there's a network of two-wolf convos spanning the entire wolf team, or if the wolves have strong seer-type abilities so they can locate their teammates, it could work... but I think we can all agree that just throwing them all into a convo is simpler, more reliable, and generally leads to better gameplay.
Not really had the chance to look back at this yet. As far as I'm concerned, it's not yet in a position where I would consider it playable.
on the morning ride i normally check between werewolf and current events( which is nothing but politics) and the idea to combine the two popped into my head.. so i wrote it down.. and passed it by shazam.
