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 mission was a bit different from the previous ones. The team of OOS operatives set themselves in the Tricky Mister in prime time, amongst the influx of customers. Each team member was assigned a different La Cosa Nostra thug that they were carefully monitoring so they could make a move before the assassination could take place. Each team member cozied up to their mafia counterpart at the bar, waiting for an indication that they were about to make a move. About an hour passed and then all of a sudden....

... Two shots rang out...

And Ran Bin-Sun lay there on his bar stool slumped over, and clearly dead.
M. Lacrimosa went running to the corpse. "What the hell guys? How did this happen?" But unfortunately due to the poor acoustics and high level of activity and noise in the bar, no one could determine where the shots came from and who amongst them had sabotaged the mission.

Mission 4 consisting of a team of Serges, Eden Zweig, biggie528, M. Lacrimosa and Illicit was a FAILURE.

The team members voted as follows:
???? SABOTAGE
???? SABOTAGE
???? SUCCESS
???? SUCCESS
???? SUCCESS

Both Serges and Biggie have KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON YOU abilities, so they may ask to receive any team member's action via PM.

Biggie and Serges, please post here if you wish to use your ability before we proceed.

The game is now tied at 2-2.

I don't have to play the card to know who the spies are here, but I will play it on Biggie just to prove it. Biggie SHOULD play hers on Marc, but it doesn't matter, since they're both spies.

BELIEVE ME when I say the spies are all uncovered; they are:
Jason (via Eden's power in mission 2)
Ms. Helen (via failure in mission 2)
Biggie (via failure in mission 4)
Marc (via failure in mission 4)

So, the 5th team must have any 5 of Serges, Eden, Illicit, Riza, Molly, and Cekuray on it. Hell, I'll even opt to sit out of mission 5 if that makes everyone more comfortable.

WE WILL WIN THIS.

Nicnic sent me Biggie's mission action, and as I knew it would be, it was
SABOTAGE.

You only have my word to go on there, sadly, but it is true.

The only shot the spies have now is to try to force us to reject 5 mission proposals in a row. We can't let it get to that.

Haha I knew it! And we nailed it! This game's become just like I imagined it would be.

Well you know what Steven Tyler says: you gotta lose to know how to win.

So we'll definitely win when it's Serges' turn but spies, hear me: Don't bother, just give up, lol.
