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

Eden does your initial mission proposal still stand after the information you learned?

Eden has made his mission proposal.

Mission 2, Team 1

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

It is now again time for the rest of the team to vote to either approve or reject this mission proposal.

Because Cekuray has the OPINION MAKER, he must post his vote here on the message board, as opposed to PMing me. You may wait to vote until Cekuray posts his vote.

When you do vote, please send me a PM stating "Mission 2, Team 1: YES or NO"

This worked out great for us!
I'm glad you used your ability to unveil Jason Arends, Eden; it's exactly what I would have done in your shoes. Now we know that Jason's upcoming mission proposal can NOT be trusted.

In addition, I ended up with "IN THE SPOTLIGHT", which means I can make a potential spy think twice about wanting to play sabotage.

As far as this mission goes, you picked the perfect team, Eden. You, me, and Illicit are all confirmed Resistance, and Ms Helen at least "acted" Resistance, which for now is good enough for me.

The Resistance is in a GREAT position here. Assuming we win this mission, then the spies are REALLY hard-pressed to find a way to fail 3 in a row. And now that Jason is out in the open, I feel very comfortable that we could win this in only 3 missions.

Vote (YES!!!!) sent.

I voted NO on the first mission just to find out more informations about people patterns of voting. Usually the first mission gets voted down, not in here though, as I see.
The mission was a success, which means two things: it consisted only of Resistance members (this being delicious, as I am a resistance from the first edition of this game) or, somebody was a spy and covered for himself. Now, the second team being almost the same, for sure I will vote YES (if only resistance there we will have another success and force the spies to play openly after, or, if sabotaged, we will see that not all the 4 names mentioned earlier to be resistance for sure, really are). Mission 2, Team 1, YES.

I'm sure a lot of people voted "no" just to get some info from multiple mission proposals, Cekuray. Like I said, I didn't suspect anyone who did of being a spy, but for my own info-gathering purposes I wanted to hear people's reasoning :)
