Hello everyone. It's been some time since we've had a game of Resistance, so I'll be hosting one (without story) for everyone to enjoy. If you've never played before, feel free to jump right into the world of uncertainty and lies. I promise lots of fun. :)

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.

I will serve as game master. Once we get enough people to play (5-10 total), I will PM everyone their allegiance (either "Resistance" or "Spy"). If you are a "Spy," I will also PM you the names of your co-conspirators.

A "leader" will be chosen at random for the first mission. The leader has 2 important functions:
1) The leader will assign various "role" abilities to players. These are one-shot special powers a player can use to learn more information about someone.
2) The leader will assign players to the "team" for that mission.

Missions will have a varying number of players who are selected; the leader picks a team, then every player will vote on whether or not they approve the team by PMing me. Once all the votes are cast, I will post the voting results. If a majority approves the team, the mission starts. If not, the mission does not start, and the next player in line becomes the new "leader" for that round. This continues until either a mission is approved, or 5 consecutive mission teams are rejected (in which case the spies win automatically.)

Once a mission team is approved, those players will PM me their choice of action during that mission. Resistance players will ALWAYS choose to have the mission succeed by sending "Success," while spies have a choice: they can either elect to have the mission succeed (to throw off suspicion), or they can "Sabotage" the mission.

From this point i don't see everyone will agree to a team. At least 2 will say no. Except if random.

And be being a spy wannabe is very accurate. I would love to be a spy. But i am not in this round. But spy hunting is not bad either.

Sindy, you included Devi in the mission you proposed. Do you think Devi is resistance? And you didn't include Yeti in the team?

The only thing i can think of is because you think that Devi has 2 spy in her team back in mission 1 without knowing? Or you have other reasons?

Otherwise, Yeti is resistance to your point of view. Because if Devi is spy, and obviously Bela is spy to you. I means Yeti can't be a spy. I mean 3 spy in 1 mission and only 1 sabotaged it is very unearthly.

I picked Devi for my team because at the time I was certain she was Resistance. The fact that Bela didn't use IN THE SPOTLIGHT is what makes me suspicious of Devi. Of course, it could have been Lou or Autumnsprings as well. But Devi is the one calling me a spy and Lou and Autumnsprings have remained quiet.

I just noticed The Announcer's post: :)

Sindy proposed a team of
-Bela
-Devi
-Lou
-Autumn

Little slip of the tongue there. :)

She just got the IN THE SPOTLIGHT card, and we haven't in a mission yet. Read the use of the card Sindy. She will definitely use it. If she still reads our post. I will just tell the announcer to remind her about the IN THE SPOTLIGHT.

But do you agree with me that Yeti is not a spy? As I said, Even if Devi is a spy or not. It's very unlikely for Yeti to be a spy unless you think Devi has chosen 2 spy in her team and she is a resistance herself.

I'm saying I'm having a hard time reading Yeti and I'm still having a difficult time with Devi. It's hard to wrap my mind around either one of them being a spy.

And that's another thing, you'll note I hope that Bela certainly hasn't been around subjecting herself to interrogation.

Of course, I'm sure she's busy...

Yes of course she can use it on me in another round, but since I'm a spy who's going to put me on their team? Or maybe she was hoping the last team would go through and her associate spy would be able sabotage and it wouldn't matter by the next mission because the spies would be ahead 2 to 1.

I'm sorry

would be ahead 2 - 0

And now I have to go to work because my boss is going to be out of town for the next two weeks and I have to help him get things ready.

Just in case anyone wonders where I am...
