ADK doesn't normally lay so low. One of the hallmarks of ADK play is early RVS and then pressure for everyone else to vote, followed by a bunch of questions. None of that has happened in this game. Additionally, I was late to realizing this game has started. When I finished my initial (late) read, ADK was my top scumread because they were in favor of keeping LLs role information secret, whereas Space was in favor of sharing flavor information that about half the people had and half did not. I agreed with Space on that so found ADK a bit scummy and then they have haven't done much to change that.
That said, I have a TERRIBLE record of misexiling ADK so I am not taking my sense too seriously because of how often that sense has led me astray. But that is where I am right now.
As someone that typically townreads everyone that agrees with them, why do you think ADK being in favor of keeping LL's role a secret is scummy? Would town!ADK not do that?
I can answer this one - I meant to post back them, but never got it it - become scum only needs 1 person to know the background and can share in their QT. Town needs everyone to know it. SO if scum does know, hiding it is pro scum, while it's only possibly pro town if no scum knows.
Hah! That explanation took me some effort to get my head around, because I was looking at things opposite way round, but yes, I agree with you! Hiding the identity of LL's role can't possibly be pro-town unless it's assumed that none of the scumteam already knows it and shares with others. I would see it as being "possibly useful" to all of town, and only having a penalty in the less-likely situation where none of the scums already knows and can therefore share with their team. If we assume that half the people know flavour, then for a 2-person mafia team not to have one of those people, it's a 1/4 chance, or for a 3-person mafia team it's down to 1/8.
Anyway, ADK's disapproval of me revealing info didn't seem to be accompanied by a scum-read particularly, though they were still saying they thought it was anti-town. I'm not sure where that leaves me reading them. Didd's case had more to it, but I'm not sure I'm really feeling it. ADK's play has actually been really variable across the game-day: they started out quite nit-picky and rules-heavy, but later made an error on how the Curfew card works and went all lurky. Is that sort behaviour pattern something people would expect scum to follow sometimes? I'm not really sure.
