At some point, I'll upload an expanded version of that spreadsheet, with things like Census and this variation on White Flag (which perhaps we should just call White Flag, since I don't think anyone has used the other win condition part of the original White Flag suggestion). Maybe some Mason stuff. Anyway, I've saved the change I made, so it'll be there when I update.
Thanks a ton. That was sort of around where I estimated, but I wasn't sure. 40% EV seems pretty promising, balance-wise.

Note that for a Vanilla game, correct play with day start 3:9 is to no lynch to start the game; so 3:8 has the same EV.

Just checked what the original definition was. Yeah I prefer this one.
