One of the most prominent yet elusive people of Sleuthville, the legendary Big Lucy herself, is hitting a new milestone in life. While none are bold enough to inquire her age, rumors say this is a momentous occasion. The guest list is comprised of the most prominent and affluent people in Sleuthville and beyond.

However, some of Sleuthville's own working class have been invited-- not as guests, but as special operatives to patrol the event. They have been selected for their swiftness, skill, and intelligence. They will be entrusted with making sure that Big Lucy's Birthday Bash goes off without a hitch. But, as always, there are those who would rather see the event go down in flames.

A mere three minutes before the event is scheduled to start, the operatives are informed of an alarming development. There has been a breach within the ranks, and a number of spies have infiltrated the group! Having never seen each others' faces, there is no way to discern whose allegiance is true. The team has been compromised, but there is still a chance to save the evening.

The operatives' job this evening is to make sure Big Lucy's birthday celebration goes off without a hitch. If she is pleased at the end of the night, it is almost guaranteed that they will lead easy lives from thereon out. Whispers say Big Lucy may be more forgiving on her big day, but even she has her limits...

Will Big Lucy's birthday bash be a huge success, or will it succumb to the sabotage of the spies? Stay tuned to find out in this installment of The Resistance.

I don't want to play into Yeti's scheme; what if it was his plan to plant someone into the group he proposed? Of the people his suggested, I am sure one is a spy, but perhaps no more than that. The question is, would that be Autumn or Kiera? (That doesn't mean Jroepel & Devi are clean. Devi could be using the same strategy as before to freign innocence. As she described it, she did not have the time to do anything else. It would be a convenient cover. As for Jroepel, he seemed honest enough, but is he concurring with Yeti's ideas as they are both Spies?)

I'll just have to choose a team. I just have a take a bet with Autumn as the alternative is Marc. Jroepel can be in it for being least suspicious (for now), and same with Sal since he voted No in the first round (although I still don't quite agree with No=Innocent, but given he did it in the first round, there's no point in suspecting him), between Devi and Keira, that's a tough call. Keira can still be innocent and strung along by Yeti, but between the two Devi does seem less likely to have anything to do with that scheme. Wait, or maybe this is how the spies want us to think... Perhaps Keira is innocent.... Ugh! I'm pulling my hair out on this!

You guys are right, I am suspecting my own shadows by now. Okay, I've made my choice. I think this group has the least likelihood to have a spy in it (without putting myself in, which is the greatest pity as I know at least I can trust myself): Autumn, Jroepel, Sal, Keira.

Joseph is pulling his hair out over how to slip a spy into the team. He's gone with Sal. Let's vote this one down.

Jul-19-2016 10:02

The last mission with Autum in it failed. I do not dulky trist that she is resistance. My vote for this mission, proposal is No.

Mission 2, Team 2

Team Leader: Joseph Zeo
Team Proposal: Autumnsprings, jroepel, Sal Iva, Keira Ann

It is now time for the players to vote to either approve or reject this mission proposal. When you do vote, please send me a PM stating "Mission 2, Team 2: YES/NO."

Note: Except for Autumn, everyone else MUST send me their votes via PM. Whether you also want to say it on the boards or not is up to you.

Joseph and Sal have both been listed as spies by Yeti. I am thinking that he might really be on to something here. I have suggested a roster that I would be more comfortable with, as has Autumn. But both of these teams were rejected. That seems fishy to me. If Joseph were truly one of the resistance, why not take one of the proposed teams? It is starting to feel like Joseph is trying to maneuver a spy onto a team that was clean. As it stands now, I can't support this mission team, so I vote no.

Jul-19-2016 11:09

Marc, the mission failed because Joseph sabotaged it. Once we vote down this proposal we'll presumably have to vote down Ms Helen's too. It'd be really great if you could go with the Yeti-Keira-Devi-Autumn unity team, as we'll only have one more shot at putting together a team after you.

Jul-19-2016 11:48

Sorry I'll be voting this down as Autumn is on it and of everyone she's the one I seriously think to be a spy.

Jul-19-2016 12:01

Oh, Autumn's the problem? I thought I was the problem. Or Keira was the problem. Maybe I think we should all go and have a Spy party together, and that's why I'm gunning for us all to be on a mission together.

Whoo! Spy party!

Jul-19-2016 12:14

I never said Keira was a problem? I said I don't trust you or Autumn and as Autumn is on the team I've voted no for it. Which I said I would do earlier on so it's no big surprise.

Joseph dear, my son is 14 months old. I haven't even been doing my cases in the past few days due to exhaustion. He's being a lot more active than my coffee can cover. I'm sending in my vote in a second, too.
