Hello everyone. I’ll be hosting another game of Resistance, and I encourage all lurkers from the previous game(s) to come out and play! We’ll keep it simple with just gameplay and no story this time. And if you’ve never played before, feel free to jump right in, because we all need more imaginary problems to worry about. :)

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.

Yes, Happy (belated) Birthday, Ty : )

I feel that Ty’s team suggestion is perhaps the best we have to go with right now. I’m as confused as anyone in uncovering the spies. The only person that I strongly suspect as a spy is Bela - therefore I could not vote for any team that includes her.

I’m interested to see what Sal himself proposes. Maybe he will surprise us all.

Happy belated birthday Ty.

I have been reading the thread and everyone's suggestions. I have however, found it hard to follow some of them because (don't tell her I said this because I love her dearly) the announcer has sometimes indicated Missions 2 or Mission 3 and then not follow it with a team number. I am totally confused as to some of them. I wouldn't care but some of you are numbering the teams, which is perfectly understandable, but I can't seem to be sure which is which.
Since I have tried to be cooperative this entire game, I wish that those of you who have suggestions (which right now, I'm sure are better than any of mine) PLEASE just paste and copy them on the thread so I'm sure that I'm looking at the teams YOU want to suggest. I thank you all for your help in advance.

Bela suggested: Sal, Missy, Aspen, and Bela

Sindy suggested: Ty, Sindy, Aspen & Shell

*I think Ty suggested this but anyone please correct me if I'm wrong here:

shell, Ty, Sal & Bela (but remove either he or Bela & replace with someone else)

Thanks, Sal, for your wish.

And thanks, missy, for your copy. That's my suggestion. But it's only for the case you are willing to take risk with this mission. I really don't like it.
