Mob history is to be made tonight, and you are along for the ride.

Sonny Capellini, The La Cosa Nostra boss of the Brooklyn area and a few of his closest compatriots were found dead in his home two nights ago, victims of blasts from sawed-off shotguns. Fuggheddaboudit. Theories suspect rival Emil "The Butcher" Bocelli, a higher-up with no small means at his disposal. Emil wanted to assume his place as the top man in the Brooklyn outfit.

However, the Santanelli's have cracked open the books and are hesitant to appoint the wild-card Bocelli, for fear they might have trouble from him later on down the line. They favor Jimmy "Legs" Tarabotti, a well-respected mobster who has no beef against the Santanelli's. However, La Cosa Nostra isn't about to lose more manpower over this.

Jimmy "Legs" Tarabotti has been sent for, and if he makes it to the meeting in a warehouse on 34th tonight at midnight, he will assume the mantle of the entire Brooklyn outfit. If he doesn't make it, the outfit goes to Bocelli.

You are a close-knit crew of Tarabotti's supporters, but word on the street is that Bocelli bribed a few of his men to the other side. Its possible, with their sabotage, that Tarabotti will be dead far before midnight. Only the final strike of the clock will tell.
Can you keep Legs Tarabotti alive until he becomes the most untouchable man in New York? Find out in this game of...The Resistance!

Nic your theories are sound as always. Except if you're a spy, in which case your theories are a way to throw suspicion off yourself.

I admit that without the use of nic's infamous spreadsheet, I missed the ms Helen/ riza connection. However, my feeling is that nic is the spy from the first mission.

Aug-1-2012 05:17

Oh and also in light of that connection I'll be voting no to my own mission proposal

I still think Squirrel is a spy. Then I am lost.

Biggie, Nic. I am going to trust you are resistance. Mostly 'cause you make sense even though I am exhausted.

Riz & Squiz, I think you are spies.

Cek... you'll usually more vocal as resistance, so maybe you're a spy this time?

Ms Helen, I don't think you've posted much either but maybe I've just missed you posts. So you're a maybe spy.

Then there's Marc. (Is there? I can't even remember who is playing :( and just want my bed and Blue.) Right, once again, you usually post a lot more

To sum up:

Me, Nic and Biggie = Resistance

Riz & Squiz = Spies

Cek, Marc and Helen = Maybe

So I am going to vote no as there are 3 maybe spies.

How many times can we vote no though?! I thought if you kept voting no, the spies just win and I am a lettle worried about that.

This is only the second proposal for this mission Danny, so we have three more.

Aug-1-2012 20:15

I'm here. I'd be posting a lot more but I've been getting home really late at night the last few days. That's why I've been relatively quiet

Danny, if you are Resistance, you definitely are very confused and uncertain on the facts up to now (even doubting if Marc is playing or not). Considering this, I don't know how much help you can bring to the other Resistance members, except voting. If you find a really strong Resistance player who will tell you how to vote is enough for you. This is the impression you left me. Other help you cannot offer for the time being to the Resistance. Maybe this will change.
As for my part in this, I can start throwing some accusations here, some comments, make people expose themselves or not, but this is just guessing for the time being. We all need more facts to uncover the identity of the other players. All except nicnic, of course, as she has 5 different scenarios already on her sheets by now, I'm sure. :D

Aug-2-2012 17:12

Do we know what we're waiting on?

Aug-2-2012 18:32

Uh, yes nic...votes.

Aug-2-2012 18:36


(Bigz, do me a favor and send me a pm with your vote as well so I don't miss it on the boards. Thanks! :D)

And Riza and Marc, nics going to chew through her straitjacket in a minute and get you, I suggest you vote.
