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

How can I prove that I am not a spy?

Probably only by not sabotaging the mission. Not that it would matter if you were, and you did, because the spies need two saboteurs.

Regardless...if Marc is a spy, he needs another spy on the team to sabotage. I dont see any other way that this mission could be different than any other combination we could select, so I tentatively vote yes to the mission.

I just can't make my mind up. I think I'll decide as I write. It makes me focus and think better.

The Resistance would still win even if these two turned out to be spies and I have this desire to reduce the spy suspects pool to a smaller size, to make sure who's a spy. This would be the perfect moment to do that. Letting them sabotage it would make us only even, if they are spies and we'd then never approve a team where we have all 4.

If at least one of them isn't a spy, the mission succeeds anyway. Game over.

If they sabotage it there are only 2 people left to make team proposals: Ms Helen and Riza.
We'd reject Ms Helen, go with Riza(as then we'd know all 4 spies and Riza wouldn't be one of them).

The mission succeeds again. But... Marc can veto a team proposal.

I'm not informed of what would happen in that case. Do we go back to Serges proposing a team? Or does the game end with a tie?

If the former, I shall vote yes. If the latter I shall vote no.

Eden, the list wraps around, so Serges goes after Riza. There is no tie. The game goes until one team wins.
