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.

I would like to play my NO CONFIDENCE card.

Nicnic has played "NO CONFIDENCE", so the mission vote automatically fails.

Thus, Special_K, you are now the leader. Please propose your 5-player mission and we'll take another vote.

*raises eyebrow* Nic, you're resistance and yet you choose to allow a spy to lead the next mission? The final mission? Hm.

*strikes dramatic pose, gestures with cigarette*

What is this about face? This turncoat? Handing the next mission to a known spy? Be on your guards, ladies and gentlemen. I don't know what miss Nic has up her sleeve, but it must be something quite good to make her put all her faith in the hands of a spy. I must admit I am quite flabbergasted- confused- stumped, bamboozled, questioning.

Well um Jason, the Resistance can vote it down. We can actually vote down 3 more missions before we have to send one.

And Danny and Cek have NO CONFIDENCE cards to use just in case the Resistance members vote like bumbling bafoons and approve something suspect.

I didn't like the votes on that one bit.

Need to ponder on things.

I wanna see a couple more mission proposals and votes Cek. We have 3 more chances to vote the missions down. And yes.... I am in the fourth position so it's not like we will get stuck sending a spy proposed mission through.

At least one spy voted Yes to that mission going through. I don't like it at all. And I'm beginning to question whether Special K really is the spy.

Again, here are the possible scenarios unless I've completely lost my mind.

Spies are either:

Jason, Illicit, Molly

OR

Special K, Illicit, Marc

On a five person mission, if you are Resistance and you are not on that mission, you know it's going to fail. Special K and Marc voted NO, as they should have, but Illicit voted yes. I don't know of a scenario where Illicit is not a spy. And she voted yes.

All of our initial feelings were the spies were Special K, Illicit, and Marc. I'm really doubting that and it may be Jason, Illicit, and Molly. Actually at this point it seems more evidence points that way. It's late. I can expand more tomorrow.
