Once again, turmoil is brewing in the underground crime world of New York. The city is slowly being taken over by La Cosa Nostra, the New York underground mafia. They are recruiting members at record numbers and they can be seen in every night club and bar scaring away customers. And now Joseph Hollis, the High Philosopher of the Order of Socrates, and mayor of New York, has learned of a secret plan by his rival faction, La Cosa Nostra, to go on a crime spree and make off with money, valuables, and ultimate control of various establishments in New York.

Mr. Hollis, being not only concerned with the livelihoods of the patrons of his city, but also with his rival faction gaining too much power, has decided to put together a team of trusted Order of Socrates resistance operatives to foil the plans of La Cosa Nostra. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of attrition lately, and certain people have been going to the highest bidder to offer their services as a spy working from within the Order of Socrates. Joseph is aware of this and he's put together the best possible team he can think of, but unwittingly will be inviting some spies for La Cosa Nostra to his team of operatives.

As long as the loyal Order of Socrates operatives can figure out whom amongst them is untrustworthy, their mission should be a success. But if they trust the wrong people, La Cosa Nostra will succeed and cause severe damage to the New York economy, while gaining enough power to take over the city.

Will the mayor and his team be able to restore order to New York? Or will the underground mafia, take over the city's resources? That's for you to decide in this version of The Resistance: Order of Socrates Restores Order

This is working out BIG for the Resistance early on!
Eden came up as Resistance, and so did Illicit!
Adding me in the mix, and we have a solid core of Resistance players that should be on EVERY mission in the game.

Still, not changing this mission team because even though I know me, Illicit and Eden would be a guaranteed success, I want to do a bit of fact-finding if I can on Ms. Helen, as well as see how votes break down.

Again, mission team is me, Eden, and Ms. Helen.

...for the record, I recommend everyone hold your votes until Eden is around to confirm my identity. I keep forgetting that so far I'm the only one who knows I'm clean :)

Serges has decided to keep his mission proposal intact.

Mission 1, Team 1

Team Leader: Serges
Team Proposal: Serges, Eden Zweig, Ms Helen

It is now again time for the rest of the team to vote to either approve or reject this mission proposal. You may wait to vote until Eden decides whether or not to reveal the allegiance of Serges to the rest of the team in this thread.

When you do vote, please send me a PM stating "Mission 1, Team 1: YES or NO"

AGAIN.... Don't feel rushed to vote. 80% of the team hasn't even posted yet ;-)

I do want to say for the record in case I get a "why did you pick me as a spy PM" lol. The spies, the player order, and the abilities that are being handed out based on me picking pieces of paper out of a GLAD tupperware bowl. So there is nothing nefarious or any preconceived results by me :-)

So apologies if I'm way off base here but I'm still trying to get my head around the game. But wouldn't it be possible for Serges and Eden to both be spies in cahoots with each? Or am I way off base there?

It is very possible Ms. Helen. Is even recommended if they are spies to be the first ones to talk about not being... :) You can vote NO Ms. Helen to this mission anytime. Beware, Serges is experienced, Illicit the same and I don't know about Eden.
Serges, my friend, you jumped to quickly claiming your innocence. Looks odd at least. Let's wait Eden now, to see what he has to tell about you. ;) I mean, I think I know already what he will say to us.

I find this conveniently suspect. However, after being scapegoated almost the entire last game, I won't jump to conclusions yet.

Knowing how to play now, I think I'm voting no to this mission to fact find a little.

*Well guys being 9.5 hours ahead of the server time, maybe it wasn't very considerate of me to participate in this game*

I confirm that Serges' allegiance is with the Resistance. Now it's up to you to figure out if we're spies.

But do the math, Resistance! I will not tell you how to do it because the spies could turn that info into an advantage, but there's a very reliable way to find out whether we are Resistance or not. Lol. Very mystical. ooh.

If you vote without taking this into regard, we might not get the chance to know whom Ms Helen is working for, AAAHahhahahaaa :) If she's pulling the naive card suggesting that we two may as well be spies, she's doing one hell of a good job with it!

And why do I get the feeling that Mr Cedric Kurtis Ray is very careful with his words :) I think you should have chosen him as the third one, Serges!!

:)))) Long time people didn't speak my real name! I thank you Eden for reminding me of my family, when I was just a boy, with no concerns and worries, when I was just Ced! Happy memories!
About the game situation, I can see you are experienced as well and your post is an informed one. I think it's too early in the game to jump to conclusions, as I made this mistake last game, when I was just a rookie. Let's see the votes now.
