After a period of absence, THE RESISTANCE has returned to the Sleuth boards with a healthy Yeti-flavoured taste.

For those unfamiliar, The Resistance is a social game of limited information. Players are split into two teams, one team being true members of the resistance, and the other being spies who have infiltrated the group. Over a course of five missions, resistance members aim to have three missions succeed, whereas spies aim to sabotage three of them. The only way for players to communicate with each other will be through this thread.

I'll post a detailed set of rules once the sign up process is over, but to give you an idea of how the game goes the first The Resistance thread on the Sleuth boards is here: http://noir.playsleuth.com/map/cityhall/post.spy?id=34582&first_record=302111

We'll need five to ten players in order to start the game. I'd like to keep this game flowing, so before putting your name down please make sure that to the best of your knowledge you'll be able to log in at least once a day for the next two weeks. You will not receive financial payment for playing THE RESISTANCE.

Sign up today!

Yeti, great job. A fun game. I think I have a better understanding of things and anxiously await the next round. Good work on the part of the Resistence and my fellow spy Mac. Just a thought, I would think that a "resistence" and spies would both be anti-establishment figues. How they became antagonists has me wondering a bit.

You're all very welcome for my setting up the game, thank you all for playing it. It was wonderful to have something going on here. :)

I suppose one would expect a "resistance" to naturally be anti-establishment, but would spies not normally be thought of as part of the establishment? This particular game twisted things around in that the spies were actually the anti-establishment ones, whereas the resistance were trying to maintain the current establishment.

Any of you are welcome to set up another game if you'd like. I personally don't want to run another one quite yet, but I am open to the idea of doing it again in a few weeks.

I am also open to the idea of an immediate bar chat.
