Once again, turmoil is brewing in the underground crime world of New York. The city is slowly being taken over by La Cosa Nostra, the New York underground mafia. They are recruiting members at record numbers and they can be seen in every night club and bar scaring away customers. And now Joseph Hollis, the High Philosopher of the Order of Socrates, and mayor of New York, has learned of a secret plan by his rival faction, La Cosa Nostra, to go on a crime spree and make off with money, valuables, and ultimate control of various establishments in New York.

Mr. Hollis, being not only concerned with the livelihoods of the patrons of his city, but also with his rival faction gaining too much power, has decided to put together a team of trusted Order of Socrates resistance operatives to foil the plans of La Cosa Nostra. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of attrition lately, and certain people have been going to the highest bidder to offer their services as a spy working from within the Order of Socrates. Joseph is aware of this and he's put together the best possible team he can think of, but unwittingly will be inviting some spies for La Cosa Nostra to his team of operatives.

As long as the loyal Order of Socrates operatives can figure out whom amongst them is untrustworthy, their mission should be a success. But if they trust the wrong people, La Cosa Nostra will succeed and cause severe damage to the New York economy, while gaining enough power to take over the city.

Will the mayor and his team be able to restore order to New York? Or will the underground mafia, take over the city's resources? That's for you to decide in this version of The Resistance: Order of Socrates Restores Order

Could have done? Haha. You are a spy who knew who other spies were, and sadly, no other spy except you was in the first team. You needed to disguise yourself, as this was the first mission.

But you couldn't risk the 2nd mission, obviously.

And making an argument is no use if it doesn't get you to win, Special K :)

You are spies, you are sure what you're doing, just like we're sure because we've got the cards and Serges and I know that we are Resistance.

And that's why the rest of the Resistance just keep watching. You are talking too much, indeed :) And so do I. But you don't have a point, whereas I have many!

Lol don't get mad I was referring to chat board discussion, when Biggie said you know what!

I think I should get serious.

As for "huh?" It's quite clear. You have no points to make as to why the same team without illicit, all voted "succeed".

I think anyone who was a spy in the first round would have voted SUCCESS simply to avoid detection.

There's no way you can be detected if your card isn't shown.

So you'd still sabotage it, only accuse others of being the spy whereas you are the one. It is very simple, so no need to complicate it.

(in case it might be taken seriously : just writing in 2nd person's point of view)

I'm not mad :)

But I see you are still trying to justify yourself rather forcefully don't you think?

(For the record I take no offense to what anyone says, it is after all only a game)

Forcefully?

What I consider forceful is when claims are made without rationale. So I repeat my justifications because... I am still asking why, lol.
