In this game, we don't know if we even have gifted, let alone being able to tell if a "revealed gifted" is lying or not. Remember- we don't have retractable votes this game. There won't be a last minute turn around or sudden random bandwagon. At least, such an occurance is highly unlikely. If someone is feeling pressure, gifted or wolf alike, they would have to do something well before the last minute. A gifted being suspected may choose to not risk waiting it out. At the same time, a wolf may do the same, banking on the fact that the pretended role may not even really exist. Yes, it would be risky for them to do so, but far less risky, since we don't know what we have and what we don't. The wolves may be planning on using that to their advantage, and I wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of it and on the look out.

Gifteds, if they are in this game, will just have to be more clever than that.
While at the surface, it seems Roa is trying to be helpful with this reasoning, I can just as easily see a wolf doing this to confuse people. In my last game, Roa was the cobbler and her comments were not the least bit helpful. This game, we don't even know if we have a cobbler, yet I do not doubt that a werewolf would use Day One to confuse. Roa could be innocent, but right now it is difficult to say. At this time, I am more inclined to think her a possible wolf.
