As Miss Hawkeye will be quite busy doing background work on the Olympics, this round of Resistance will return to its original format. There will be no story to accompany the missions, but everything else will work the same as usual.

The game takes place over a series of 5 "missions." The Resistance is trying to complete 3 missions successfully, while the spies are attempting to sabotage 3 missions. First one to 3 wins.

I will serve as game master. Once we get enough people to play (5-10 total), I will PM everyone their allegiance (either "Resistance" or "Spy"). If you are a "Spy," I will also PM you the names of your co-conspirators.

A "leader" will be chosen at random for the first mission. The leader has 2 important functions:
1) The leader will assign various "role" abilities to players. These are one-shot special powers a player can use to learn more information about someone.
2) The leader will assign players to the "team" for that mission.

Missions will have a varying number of players who are selected; the leader picks a team, then every player will vote on whether or not they approve the team by PMing me. Once all the votes are cast, I will post the voting results. If a majority approves the team, the mission starts. If not, the mission does not start, and the next player in line becomes the new "leader" for that round. This continues until either a mission is approved, or 5 consecutive mission teams are rejected (in which case the spies win automatically.)

Once a mission team is approved, those players will PM me their choice of action during that mission. Resistance players will ALWAYS choose to have the mission succeed by sending "Success," while spies have a choice: they can either elect to have the mission succeed (to throw off suspicion), or they can "Sabotage" the mission.

I have PM'ed Sal with Bela's allegiance.

---

Mission 2, Team 1

Team Leader: Sal
Team Proposal: Sal, Joseph, and Justin

It is now time for the players to vote to either approve or reject this mission proposal. When you do vote, please send me a PM stating "Mission 2, Team 1: YES/NO."

Please feel free to discuss.

I find this odd, did Sal receive Belas allegiance before he proposed this team? If so does that mean she's a spy? I would figure we want Known resistance on the team. Or if he already knew Belas allegiance it would be because he is a spy and would know the remaining players allegiance... I'm not feeling confident about this one.

Mmh. If nothing else we certainly need to learn Bela's allegiance before we can vote on this. Molly and I can agree on that at least.

Why Yeti, I think these are the first words you've said to me that don't end with "filthy spy"

Oh dear, I must be becoming too trusting again. Filthy spy!

Even though I am on this proposed team, since Sal is on it I have to vote it down. I don't know if it is Yeti trying to sabotage Sal, or if he is an actual spy... but for now I have to reject the proposal.

I feel like my head is going to explode, but then I look over to the Olympic teams and feel a lot better :P

Okay, this is no fun because it didn't go the way I thought it would - long post coming later. From the time-stamps, it does seem as though Sal proposed the team before Dashing could PM him with my allegiance. Sal, could you post my allegiance here? Or could the Announcer confirm whether Sal was PM'ed with my allegiance before or after he proposed this team?

Justin, you're making me think that YOU are a spy now, although I had given you a pass up until now.

Bela, at least 3 players in the game know your allegiance already. IF we are resistance then 5 know it.

When Yeti knows something, he's like a dog with a bone that still has meat on it. When it's not obvious that he does, watch out.

Since Sal seems to be being coy with Bela's allegiance I'm going to vote NO to this one. Something doesn't smell right.
