Members, please submit your actions

Fellow Resistance Fighters,

May you execute your mission swiftly, aptly, and safely. You have our confidence and support (except those two silly naysayer heads over there, don't mind them), and we await your return and anticipate the results.

*prrr* *prrr*

Hey. Does anyone know by any chance, if the shipment is fragile? We are thinking of rolling those boxes to the base, but if it's rum, we can carry it.

I'm sad to see the votes, I anticipate the result alright, but not happy about it.
The mission will fail - or spies are totally worthless and the game is over, which I doubt.

JMich, sorry and a pity you are not finding this more enjoyable. :(

Your analytical mindset suits the game perfectly, but you are right the uncertainty in Resistance is usually only resolved much nearer the end. It's a more constantly tense experience - another example is that not being lynched ever, you will always be playing, even if in a real bad position.

I can tell you that personally I'm also finding the prolonged nature of it versus tabletop format wearying.

But on to less meta topics - looking at the votes, you see the mission is very likely failed right?

@all

Next mission is also 4 players, so if we had lucked in to a resistance team spies would have done all they could to derail the team choice. Otherwise rinse and repeat the team and we get to 3 wins.

Yet there are 3 spies and only 2 no votes. Even with you being unsure of my alignment (and Ix) that already tells you all you need to know.

And with so many yes votes, reading anything into it is a wash...



Fellow Resistance Fighters

You do have my support, even if you don't think I am being helpful.
But my confidence you need to earn - please stop being so trusting.

We have only 3 voting rounds to look at, when we could have 8 (and 10 team choices)

I'll take a few steps back and stop pushing everyone so hard now.
It's probably being counterproductive and if you think it's super fun for me, you'd be wrong.


I leave it to you all to think who if anyone are the people that were apparently agreeing with me how the votes and analyzing them is sooo important, yet voted yes. For whatver mysterious reason.

[Hopes for a miracle]

Did you just command your fellow spy/-ies to fail the mission? By the looks of your posting, current team is infiltrated and you have knowledge about it.

No, he's just seeing the obvious. In my experience, the second mission fails probably 95% of the time. It's nigh impossible to get all Resistance on it, and spies will rarely let it succeed, as that puts them in a bad position.

So being able to know the future through logic means I'm spy? :)

Turns out this isn't Shakespeare but rather https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra]
an older tragedy[/url] then.


I "know" the team is infiltrated because if it wasn't the spies would have voted no. I currently actually even think Ix is also Resistance and so I believe all 3 spies voted yes on this particular Stooge Squad.

Don't blame me for what is about to happen. I voted for the other guy.

Still, nice try Dess. Keep it up, but aim elsewhere for improved results. :)

We'll have an interesting conversation about the way you're voting after the game is done.


Also want to say, not editing the link is physically painful. x(

We do understand your pain. There is always EBWOP (edit by way of post).

Good luck! Curious how this one turns out!

Not a try - an observation from a different angle than you initially intended. I could go through two possible scenarios now, but there is good in doing so until after the mission has passed.

And what takes so long?

you mean for the mission results?

there has to be a standard time to pass before a result is given, the result can't simply be given once all results are in, because:

If all Resistance are on the mission and it's an auto-pass, the "pass" would happen instantaneously essentially and the result could be posted ASAP, but this then could almost be seen as to confirm to the rest of us that those on the mission were in fact Resistance and not just Spies who sent a "pass."

If there is a spy who is uncertain what to do, or multipe spies who have some thinking to do or some talking to do in the thread to try and signal to each other who is going to pass or fail or if they are both going to do the same thing or what, the amount of time to make a decision could vary greatly, it would not be fair to almost confirm to the rest of us "oh, it's not a quick pass, there must be a spy on the mission."

If you do a standard time each time, the speed of the result keeps the submitters affiliation ambiguous without question.

make sense?

FARKING MISSED MY APOSTROPHE OOHHHHHHHH IT BURRRNNS!!!

Please please ppleeease can I change it??!!

Prod preventing post while waiting for results.
