Do you all take Town Elders to a Showdown

[StayPuft]

When I played with my group of friends, the person who ended up winning did take two elders that we had proved to be good (they had secrets that instructed the person reading them to reveal to the group, so we all knew their status).

I have to agree with MoonSylver and Tommy. As long as you already investigated their secrets and are sure they are good, why would you ever not? Heck, even if they don't wind up helping that much, or their specific abilities aren't terribly helpful, they still take each take one fight dice from the villain that is now no longer rolling against your hero. So, it gives you just that much more of a chance of surviving the fight.

As it is, I was trying to make my way to a showdown at the time, and was definitely planning to bring either those two, or one of them and the other elder I had personally investigated and revealed to myself to be good. When I play, if and when I go into a showdown, I certainly plan to bring them so long as I know they are not evil.
