I don’t believe Roa’s protests for one moment (particularly as she was so quick herself to accept Rikae’s declaration when it came).
When there is a seer reveal in the last few moments of the day, I vote to save the supposed seer, based solely on the premise that if they are faking, it will soon be found out anyways. It's safer to save the "seer" and wait for the next Day than to start doubting all over again.

Unless ofcourse, no one believes you.

Her mischaracterisation of my participation yesterDay was so breathtaking (to my mind, anyway) that I could not believe that there was no malice behind it. As I read through, I was coming round to the conclusion that she must be the Cobbler, since she has been behaving way to boldly for a Faithful, even by her standards.
The only "malice" in that case was toward someone whom I still believe to be a Wolf, and I'm not surprised that you're only too happy to support Rikae. After all, it "saves you the inconvenience" of having to answer my accusations. How very convenient for you.

One productive line of enquiry, it seems to me, will be to review Roa’s “handy dandy” analyses and see who she may have been trying to draw suspicion away from.
At least those aren't getting ignored. If that was your plan, you failed, Rikae.

EDIT: X'd with Nogrod

Even though what Roa says is perfectly possible I would also like to remind us - and myself the most - that bogging down in this issue and not hunting for the Faithfuls would be an excellent masterpiece of Cobblery, the very thing Roa is here suspected of!
If you believed me, you'd have a baddie right now. And a second, because this is far too convenient for SPM. Maybe that was Rikae's plan- she knows SPM is a Faithful and wants to completely discredit my case against him. By the time you know she's lying, it will have been forgotten.

Okay, seeing as I started crying when I read Kath's post, I think I'm getting way too worked up about this. I'm going to take a break for a little while. Ask questions of me, if you want. I'll answer them when I get back.

No. I've no intention of forgetting Spm and indeed his last post awoke pretty similar reactions in me as it seems to have aroused in you. But remember also my dear Roa, the way a good Cobbler works is by being reasonable as often as she can and I have no doubt that most that you did at least on Day1 was quite straightforward and open. What else could you have done not knowing the identities of the Faithfuls?

Trying to say then: I think it much more probable that you're a Cobbler than Rikae as so many things seem to fit. As I said, I admit it's not fool-proof and there is a chance it being the more improbable way.

But I'll try to think of other things for a while just to refresh my mind.
