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.

Jason was proved by Illicit being a Resistance. He must tell the truth, at least this I understood. Nicnic and myself are resistance for sure. Illicit is the only question mark in the mission. Vote sent.

Im mostly quiet so i dont confuse myself guys. Sorry. *tries to keep up* Everything gets so 'conspiracy theory' though. So what next?

I am currently waiting for 2 players to submit their vote on the proposed mission team. Once those votes are received, I will reveal the results of the voting. If the team is approved (barring any "NO CONFIDENCE" plays), then the mission will start. Otherwise, leadership will move to Molly Maltese to propose a mission team.

Nic, you confused me. I thought we were supposed to vote no. So I did what you said. But now you voted yes? I have a feeling this *is* a case of the lay doth protest too much.

Right now: I think Jason and Illict are resistance as is Cek and Molly.

I think Biggie and Nic are spies which leaves M. Lac as a spy too.

Please pay no attention to Jonny and Emma's child.

LOL Danny. I was on the fence. And I only voted yes because I know I have a card that can veto the yes vote.

In one sense you are right... the resistance probably should vote at least a couple down so we can see voting patterns and try to gather information. I think maybe if I didn't have this card, I would have voted no. But because I know I can trump a Yes vote, I just went with yes for the time being if we feel comfortable sending it through.

I'm not a spy. You guys have no proof that I am and not every leader HAS to go on the mission. I admit my choice was not the smartest choice and in all honesty its only the first mission. For all I know the two that voted no on the first one are spies.

Ok I just want to make a quick apology. I lost my temper over something ridiculous with my last post. So I'm sorry you guys, for that. Let's move on with the game.

Jason is the spy people. I'm TELLING you! When have I ever not been trustworthy?

you know who else isnt trustworthy? Illicit since she clearly lied about Jason's allegiance. Which means we only have one more person to figure out.

I would say M., but I'm afraid he'll get angry again ;)

No, I won't. I'm sorry for that. I just..haven't been in the best of moods lately.
