Anyone who says it like B is just wrong.

I don't care. Saying it like the B version just sounds weird.

IMO, because it has the word 'roll' within it, should be enough evidence that it should be pronounced like A over B.

I have no explanation for that.

But the troll thing is just cause of where I live I suppose. Everyone I know would say troll like A rather than like B, so maybe that's why it sounds so odd to me.

People don't want the right answer, they want their answers to be right.
