One of the most prominent yet elusive people of Sleuthville, the legendary Big Lucy herself, is hitting a new milestone in life. While none are bold enough to inquire her age, rumors say this is a momentous occasion. The guest list is comprised of the most prominent and affluent people in Sleuthville and beyond.

However, some of Sleuthville's own working class have been invited-- not as guests, but as special operatives to patrol the event. They have been selected for their swiftness, skill, and intelligence. They will be entrusted with making sure that Big Lucy's Birthday Bash goes off without a hitch. But, as always, there are those who would rather see the event go down in flames.

A mere three minutes before the event is scheduled to start, the operatives are informed of an alarming development. There has been a breach within the ranks, and a number of spies have infiltrated the group! Having never seen each others' faces, there is no way to discern whose allegiance is true. The team has been compromised, but there is still a chance to save the evening.

The operatives' job this evening is to make sure Big Lucy's birthday celebration goes off without a hitch. If she is pleased at the end of the night, it is almost guaranteed that they will lead easy lives from thereon out. Whispers say Big Lucy may be more forgiving on her big day, but even she has her limits...

Will Big Lucy's birthday bash be a huge success, or will it succumb to the sabotage of the spies? Stay tuned to find out in this installment of The Resistance.

Yes, Autumnsprings trusts Yeti's judgment because she and Yeti are spies! That has been my thought from the very first because they were the ones posting and trying to persuade others. The resistance has nothing to prove, it's the spies who have to influence others' opinions. I think Keira is resistance because I think she was just a pawn of Yeti's in his game strategy. My third strong suspicion is Devi because she can rest on her record of always voting "yes." Good tactic for when your turn comes to be the spy. I am also a little suspicious of Joseph and M. Lacrimosa.

Viva la resistance! *she cries in a very bad French accent*

Okay, you don't like the team as proposed because Autumn is on it. Fine. Then send out Kiera, Devi, Marc, and myself. I guarantee you that the team will succeed. After thinking this over all day, I am convinced that the spies are Joseph, Sindy, Helen, and Sal.

It is interesting to see the spies try to argue against an attempt at a clean team. Let us try one run without one of the 4 on it... The spies don't want that to happen because it will prove that they are guilty as charged.

Sindy, you wouldn't know this, being a spy and all, but the resistance members are trying to prove their allegiance to the resistance.

And I'm betting your reaction to finding out you were a spy and the names of your co-conspirators was much closer to, "crap! How do I act like a spy?"

But I do agree with you on one thing. Kiera is resistance.

Ms. Helen, this is your chance to convince me of your resistance loyalty. I beg of you to put forward the team I proposed of myself, Kiera, Devi, and Marc. Doing so will verify the resistance loyalty of these players, and it will also prove that Yeti was wrong about your being a spy. Show me that you are on the resistance. Send this team out to save Lucy!!!

Autumn, my dear spy, the thing that made me say, "oh, crap" was when I saw how Yeti was able to direct Keira, yourself and Justin to vote "no" in the next round by suggesting that it was better to err on the side of "no" rather than voting "yes." Mr. Face is a very subtle beast, but a spy he is. And all his little spy sheep are following after him.

Let me clarify - not that I think Keira is a spy, but she *was* influenced by Yeti's kindly, avuncular and seemingly wise and helpful advice. As were other people who voted and are not necessarily spies.

I believe it is better to err on the side of NO in the first couple of rounds. Obviously you don't vote NO until the Spies win, that would be silly.

Sindy, let me clear with you as well. Yeti did not direct me to vote no. I already doubted Joseph just four posts before yeti made his post. Before that I had privately doubted Helen (although I can't remember why at the moment. I'll have to go back through my notes.) but didn't feel I had enough information to go public with it.

That's where I was when I read yeti's post. It gelled with my thoughts, and filled in gaps. It makes perfect sense.

I believe you know me well enough by now to know I will bow before very few people. I will bend to the will of even fewer. Ask Justin about it. I'm not arrogant or prideful, but I detest being "led" or commanded. I would not tolerate it for a stupid game.

But it'd make perfect sense if you two are spies and are pulling each other's legs. Already it is working to sway many in trying his list or else. It is highly dangerous and in no time true spies will strike out and sabotage the missions.
