I wouldn't waste today's lynch on Roa, if I were you, but perhaps she's left a bit of a trail in her voluminous contributions. After all, she probably has a good idea who the faithfuls are.
I am perplexed. Our village is really going from bad to worse. Not only our numbers have thinned somehow in a very quick way, not only that Rikae is most likely doomed to die this night, but Roa is a cobbler!?! I was quite inclined to consider her a helpful villager at first, seems my judgement is not as good as I thought.

And to that what Rikae mentioned - what to do with Roa now. I agree it would be better to let her go, she cannot do much if we don't heed to her advice, or can she? If she can somehow help the wolves yet, I think it would be safer to get rid of her instead of risking lynching someone innocent. And, by the way, does she count into the villager count since she's been already revealed?

I still feel the same about Mänwe, I think he acts weird and I do suspect him, but for some reason at the same time I have seriouse doubts that he is a wolf. . . It is hard to explain, but it was kind of the same feeling I had about Garin and that was why I mentioned that I would rather lynch Legate.
Oh, Rune, I can assure you I am not a cartoon bad guy. The thing with Hookbill I already explained. I am trying to collect as much as I can from what is going on around and then understanding it, and since I don't see anything much clear, I try to clear it up as much as I could. Brinniel at that time seemed replying seriously to a joke and I came right after her, so I asked. Nothing more, nothing less.

Exactly. After all, the plurality allows us to come to a better conclusion, one can correct what someone else has misinterpretated or overlooked, etc. Now I really see the power of the Seer and realize what loss it is to lose Rikae.

I don't see anything wrong with Lommy. She is as much suspicious as anyone else, but I found her thoughts rather logical so far. Unless she is masking herself too well with some inventive thoughts, like Roa did.

While his comments do seem sincere, there is a small part of me that wonders if his confusion is just a ploy.
In "response" to this I would quote one of Hookbill's earlier posts:

I tend to believe Hookbill. Again, as with Lommy, if he is not bluffing very good, which I doubt, I think he speaks the truth.

I think this is nonsense. As I said above, we need the plurality, otherwise we are stuck.

Lastly, my own inventive thoughts from what has happened here. I see we cannot bear as true what Roa presented to us, although it fills half of this thread. And at first I was going to thank her for this. *sigh* Now, I will stay focused on my own point of view, since other peoples' hints might prove to be wrong as they did now. Ah! Seems I finally caught the point of how this game is to be played. All right boys, will be back with some constructive thoughts.
