I recently found an awesome party/social game called "The Resistance" that my friends and I love to play. The premise is very similar to games like "mafia" and "werewolf"; you have a group of players, in which some of them are working against the group and have knowledge the others don't.

In "The Resistance", you are basically members of an underground organization known as "The Resistance" attempting to destroy the establishment. However, among you there are counter-agents, or "Imperial Spies" who are working to sabotage your efforts. The spies know who they are, as well as who else is a spy, but will for all intents and purposes appear to be working toward the goals of the Resistance.

The game takes place over a series of 5 "missions". The Resistance is trying to complete 3 missions successfully, while the spies are attempting to sabotage 3 missions. First one to 3 wins.

Also, Cekuray for the record, Special K never admitted she was a spy. She said she KNEW Jason and Illicit were spies, which she would because on the first mission between her and Jason, one of them voted SABOTAGE. If she had voted SUCCESS she knew for a fact that Jason was the saboteur. Which also means that Illicit was a spy because she lied about his identity.

Okay you had me there for a moment....then, going, going GONE. Yep im lost and Im just voting no on principle from now on. Just to be difficult. :) *plugs fingers in ears and hums* i cant hear you!

Its established if you know you're resistance and you're not on the team to vote down the team, so im not just being difficult, im voting no for that too. *puts fingers back in ears*

Oh Jason, too much protesting ;) You're starting to give yourself away here. The obviousness is right out there for everyone to see. "Yep im lost and Im just voting no on principle from now on". Funny how that happens when you're up for a vote of the five people you know aren't spies. Principle = spy in this case. Also, Cek is right, if I'm a spy, who are the other two? You're very focused on just me (are you flirting with me? haha)

Nic, I think its cool you did a spreadsheet. I don't think you have a problem <.<

PS I might owe you if you believed me from the beginning. ;) Right now, it'll just be a big I TOLD YOU SO ;)
