Hello everyone. It's been some time since we've had a game of Resistance, so I'll be hosting one (without story) for everyone to enjoy. If you've never played before, feel free to jump right into the world of uncertainty and lies. I promise lots of fun. :)

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.

#1 = most likely to be a spy. :p

I don't know Molly. I know you (#1 spy) and Sindy (#2 spy), Bela (Resistance at heart) and Jintan (Spy irregardless of real allegiance 😂)

I just got to read the last portion of this thread (while waiting for another Resistance game's results :P) and oh, this game was fun. :D Thank you very much, jintan; unless my math is off I'm a liar queen and...okay, 'supreme goddess of this game' is a bit much. :P Cathy's got it right though, I still prefer being Resistance.

Yeti, I'm fairly sure Molly has been Resistance exactly ONCE. Because I've read these threads so many times. XD

Having gone through the whole thread, I really want to apologise to Cathy again for any grief we caused her; also, I LOVE your summary (your last post ^ here). You're a pretty great Resistance player :D (which again makes me so sorry you were fed up with our game).
