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.

(Gameplay in next post)

Sorry y'all. I am a different time zone to everyone and couldn't stay up last night waiting for everyone to vote.

Yeh, I'll use the card.

I should read the rules properly, sorry Serges. I should also have coffee before I start :)

I think I believe Illict about Jay.
Not sure if I trust Biggie but we'll see.

I'll use the spotlight card on Molly.

OK folks, its finally time to send the team on the first mission!

The team for this mission, once again, is:
Molly Maltese
Jason Arends
Special_K

Molly, since Danny used "IN THE SPOTLIGHT" on you, you must announce your action on this mission publicly. After that, Jason and Special must PM me their action, and I will post the results of the mission.

A few key points to remember:
Resistance members MUST choose "Success", but Spies may choose either "Success" or "Sabotage". Also, it only takes 1 "Sabotage" to fail the mission. Lastly, when I post the results, I will NOT post who played what action; only Molly's will be definitively known, since she's "IN THE SPOTLIGHT".

So Molly, do you choose "Success", or "Sabotage"? Post here.
Once she has, Jason and Special_K, PM me your choices.

Well darlings, you know I'm the pinnacle of a team player! So of course, my pets, my darling little cupcakes, I choose a resounding SUCCESS!

MISSION RESULT:

Jason, Molly, and Special ventured out to the location of the weapons cache. It was heavily guarded, naturally, but thankfully the team was able to circumvent the patrols and searchlights.

Upon reaching the entrance to the warehouse, the team spotted a keycard reader next to the locked door. The team used the keycard that had been stolen from an Imperial guard they had ambushed the night before, and attempted to gain access.

Sirens and floodlights immediately filled the team's senses, as they realized they had been set up. They barely escaped with their lives, avoiding trigger-happy guards and search dogs as they made their way back to base.

It was discovered that someone had switched the keycard that had been taken from the guard with a fake. The only people who had access to the real keycard were Jason, Molly, and Special_K, and Molly had been put under surveillance by Danny. Molly never touched the card.

MISSION 1 IS A FAILURE! (Spies lead 1-0)
Molly-Success (through "IN THE SPOTLIGHT")
???-Success
???-Sabotage

You are now free to discuss this result, as I set up the second mission in the game. Will post details later today.

SHOCKING. I mean that's really shocking to me. I can't believe that mission failed. :-P

Since I am next up, I will post what is going on in my head about this. Get thoughts from others who are Resistance. And then post the mission.

My opinion is that Jason is Resistance, like Illicit said. Molly said SUCCESS just because she was in the spotlight. It doesn't mean she is not a spy. Especially if she already knows that there is somebody in the mission who will SABOTAGE it. I think that the only one who voted SABOTAGE is Special K.
One question for you Serges. You should not communicate to the players how many votes were for SUCCESS and how many for SABOTAGE?
Some doubts remain on M. Lacrimosa as well. We need to cancel some missions maybe in order to find out more things about the saboteurs.
Let's see nicnic's team. :D
