Mob history is to be made tonight, and you are along for the ride.

Sonny Capellini, The La Cosa Nostra boss of the Brooklyn area and a few of his closest compatriots were found dead in his home two nights ago, victims of blasts from sawed-off shotguns. Fuggheddaboudit. Theories suspect rival Emil "The Butcher" Bocelli, a higher-up with no small means at his disposal. Emil wanted to assume his place as the top man in the Brooklyn outfit.

However, the Santanelli's have cracked open the books and are hesitant to appoint the wild-card Bocelli, for fear they might have trouble from him later on down the line. They favor Jimmy "Legs" Tarabotti, a well-respected mobster who has no beef against the Santanelli's. However, La Cosa Nostra isn't about to lose more manpower over this.

Jimmy "Legs" Tarabotti has been sent for, and if he makes it to the meeting in a warehouse on 34th tonight at midnight, he will assume the mantle of the entire Brooklyn outfit. If he doesn't make it, the outfit goes to Bocelli.

You are a close-knit crew of Tarabotti's supporters, but word on the street is that Bocelli bribed a few of his men to the other side. Its possible, with their sabotage, that Tarabotti will be dead far before midnight. Only the final strike of the clock will tell.
Can you keep Legs Tarabotti alive until he becomes the most untouchable man in New York? Find out in this game of...The Resistance!

I'm going to hold off a little while, but as of right now, I'm planning on voting no. Maybe if Cek gave some sort of explanation for why he picked the people he did I might change my mind.

I picked people who voted No on the first team. Just an automatism. To me, people who vote NO on the first team proposal are people who want to learn more about their fellow players, generally people who want to unpuzzle the game, generally Resistance players. Maybe is just a wrong opinion, but for the time being this is what I'm thinking. Anyway, is too early in the game to draw any conclusions and we know for sure the first mission will be a success. That's why I vote NO on the first team proposed, desiring to know more about people and voting patterns.
Biggie, is the third time I play this game here and nothing changed in the PM's I receive in the beginning of the game. So, same duty for me, finding the rotten ones. :)

I think this is suss, and I know that I must
On principle simply vote no
Why play the same way the game's always played?
Is this all you guys seem to know?

It seems to me, you've all gotten stale,
base your play on what's happened before
When serges was quoted, well I nearly voted
To leave and play nevermore. (nevermore)

Yes base your perceptions on the king of deception,
Your own thoughts must be quite oblique.
Please try and think with your own woolly heads
At least let my interest pique.
