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)

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.

Too much going on.

We've all been working under this assumption that Special K is a spy, and Jason Arends is Resistance. And Jason's weird actions are due to him being cute and confused. I've been re-thinking this for a bit and maybe we jumped the gun on clearing Jason. I think this is more difficult because at least one, perhaps two people who are Resistance, have done strange things which makes it more difficult to understand what is going on. And honestly, Special K's actions make more sense as Resistance than as a spy.

I'll say it again. The two spy scenarios are:
- Jason, Illicit, Molly
- Special K, Illict, Marc

This is based on mission results and unless the spies just wanted to drag this game out and didn't feel like winning the last mission, these are the only possible scenarios. (There are two other scenarios of Special K, Illicit, Jason and Cek, Special K, and Illicit but for my own sanity I am going to rule these out and never think of them again :-) )

OK now everyone open your minds for a minute. And instead of going down the path of Special K is a spy, assume Jason is the spy and look at what has actually happened in missions and voting. Let's review this assuming Special K is actually Resistance....
