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

I'm not going to NO CONFIDENCE the team I chose.

Apparently Marc made his decision while I was posting :)

OK, in that case, my mission action is sent. Nicnic, I am officially using my "KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON YOU" on Biggie.

Sorry Serges, i didnt' now you were still posting lol

Hmm. I don't know if this mission will fail. The spies (hypothetical as they may be) now know they're under suspicion, and know they will be identified if they sabotage. Its sort of a rock and a hard place for them, even though Resistance has the advantage anyway.

M. Lacrimosa has decided not to use his NO CONFIDENCE ability.

Marc proposed a team of:
- Serges
- Eden Zweig
- biggie528
- Illicit
- M. Lacrimosa

The mission is now ready to proceed. Eden Zweig, Serges, Illicit, M. Lacrimosa and biggie528 must PM me whether they vote to SUCCEED or whether they vote to SABOTAGE the mission.

** Remember Resistance members must vote SUCCEED, while Spies may choose to vote either SUCCEED or SABOTAGE

*drums fingers on table*

I'm trying to pick up the hamming since my ex-wife has dropped the ball in that department. *says with furled eyebrows* I know, i know it needs work.

Jun-26-2012 22:35

I know Molly that there are only 6 Resistance members. Just my point!

I don't have time to ham, I'm trying to figure out who your compatriots are, spy.
