Sowing chaos is a valid strategy. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
Hidden role games really depend on the group playing. If people are being super serious and competitive I'm just gonna go through the motions. But a casual group, playing for fun, is ironically one of the few times I feel comfortable letting the mask slip a bit.
I go very outsized in all my reactions, regardless of role. Instead of trying to straight-face everything and being given away by an eye twitch, I keep up the patter/jokes. Suspect everyone, especially teammates. Be confused about "mistakes," blame getting up too early/staying up too late/drinking too much. An unreliable narrator, if you will.
In some ways, this is "me" turned up to 11. In other ways, it's just a different mask. A role to play that does not depend on the in-game role assignment. I have no idea if this actually helps with winning lol. But it keeps things manageable for me. And it's fun!
