The reason why it doesn't work to try to develop consensus as to whom the Seer should dream of, whom the Ranger should protect, and whom the Hunter should hunt, is because there are no known innocents. We don't have someone whom we can implicitly trust to lead the way. As soon as one of the shirriffs is revealed, that all changes.
There are a few alternatives to the above, however. By perhaps Day Three, there could be consensus that one of the villagers must be innocent because of how s/he conducts her/imself; that individual could be appointed the leader in organizing the gifteds. However, if and when such leadership occurs, it has to be respected by a strong majority of the villagers so as to counteract influence and votes of the werewolves and cobbler. And any plans that are made, must be agreed to by enough villagers such that the werewolves and cobbler can't destabilize it in some way.
Admittedly, the above has not been garnered from the heavens, but perhaps you might see the merit in it anyway.
