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 using OPINION MAKER on Biggie.

I’d like to ESTABLISH CONFIDENCE with Ms Helen.

(Explanations to follow)

My gut feeling explanation: My English-y senses are tingling.

I’m leaning towards Biggie being the spy. There’s something weird here, but I can’t place it. I’d like to see how she votes on the mission proposals to see if I can get anything out of that.

But Nic could also be the spy. I know her to be crafty. But I’m leaning towards her being Resistance. At this point it’s still a gamble. :S

I’m establishing confidence with Ms Helen because I’m suspicious of Biggie, and she’s up after her. Best outcome, Ms Helen’s resistance and can at least know I am as well. Worst outcome, she’s a spy and I just wasted a card.

My team proposal:
Riza Hawkeye
Nicnic
Ms. Helen
Danny Mack

That seems very Resistance-y of Riza. Hmmm.

I'm SO GLAD you used a card on me. I wish it was overheard conversation to prove it though. I'm absolutely not the spy on this team. I voted success for this mission.

I'm pretty sure that nic is the spy here. Methinks she doth protest too much. Your team proposal is crap, though, because one of the two of you is a spy and you're both on it. So I'm voting No.

PS Using this card on me is pretty useless, I always post my votes on the board anyways.

Jul-27-2012 13:29

Someone's angry. :-D

I'm not a spy. And I was getting a spy sense from you. Or maybe I'm just paranoid about you. LOL. I'm waiting to see what Ms Helen says about Riza and how these votes go before I think anything at this moment. But I was just saying from the beginning my spydar was going off on you.

Jul-27-2012 15:30

I have to admit that I'm there with nic
in thinking that biggie's the spy.
But I'd still like to see if this passes of fails
I vote YES, I'm just that kind of guy.

At least if it fails, and we're behind the eight ball,
Riza and nicnic are out.
Ok Spreadsheets or not, I admit that I've got
little idea what I'm talking about.

Oh dear I've just done, what that great number one
ranter and raver keep's doing,
half way through my post, I've completely changed tack
with all of my froing and toing.

I think I may know who all three spies are LMAO. Not going to say anything; want to see if my theory plays out.

In the mean time, this mission has two people on it that were on a team of 3 with one spy on it, so if anyone doesn't give this proposal serious pause, something's not right.

I voted No.

Jul-27-2012 16:02

Ok Riza is resistance, so that at least arrows it down a bit.

However I am going to vote no for this mission. We know that either Nic or Biggie is a spy but personally I have no clue which and there's no way to know yet unless I've missed something. So because Nic is on the team, I think it's better to be safer rather than sorry, no offence meant hun :)

Jul-27-2012 16:08

With all due respect Ms Helen, the only thing "we" know is that YOU say that Riza is Resistance. ;-)

Jul-27-2012 16:13

Lol true can't argue with that.

So let me rephrase that to 'I' now know does that help? hehe

Jul-27-2012 18:12

I am resistance/ I vote yes/success. Haven't read last results yet.
