Resistance 3.0: Medieval edition!

about 9 years

Post if you wanna join, this is a game for 8. I've run this twice before and both times were quite successful.

From the Wiki:

The Resistance is a game where players attempt to deduce one another's identities. The setting of the game is an imagined battle between a resistance group trying to overthrow the malignant government and the government spies infiltrating the resistance group. It is similar in structure to party games such as Mafia and Werewolf, where a small, secret group of informed players attempt to disrupt a larger uninformed group, while the larger group attempts to identify the spies and eliminate them. The Resistance uses slightly different mechanics from similar games, and was designed to avoid player elimination and increase available information for player decisions.

Better than mafia as no one is lynched and everyone participate till game end.

This game will be for 8 players, 5 Knights of Arthur, and 3 Minions of Mordred.

For those unfamiliar,

Each day, a player is a quest leader (this follows a set order) and nominates a certain amount of people to go on the mission.

Everyone then votes on whether the quest should push through or be aborted.

If the quest is aborted, the day ends and the next person becomes leader.

If the quest pushes through, those on the mission proceed to PM me their action for the quest. Knights of Merlin members are required to always pass the quest, whilst Minions of Mordred can choose to either pass or fail. It only takes 1 fail for a quest to fail (except on the 4th quest, which takes 2)

Win Cons:

  • If 3 of the 5 quests succeed, the Knights of Arthur win the game.

  • If 5 nominations fail in a row, the Minions of Mordred win the game.

  • If 3 of the 5 quests fail, the Minions of Mordred win the game.

Next post for roles.

When Stragger starts inexplicably changing his read on me, and he will, please don't question it. We don't want to accidentally code anything to the assassin after all.
about 9 years
I'm waiting for Stragger to come around on me being town because he's probably Merlin and just using me as a scapegoat to out bad reads to make the assassin think twice about murdering him.
about 9 years
Also looking back, honestly I still think we made the best move we could have. We now know there's scum in the pool of 4 which we couldn't be sure of previously. Unless you're Stragger apparently.

Stragger and Pinche are town. Sonrio is also likely town. I too am town.

Pst, hey scum partners.... sup.

Pinche thinks scum is coding, despite no feasible way to set up codes. More on this after your local weather.

Stragger dislikes that I out fake reads to bully people into falling into line. More on this at 11.

Now how the hell am I on anyone's scum list when I'm literally town af this is ridiculous. Is every single one of you really this dumb? I literally sent the last quest through again because AS YOU SAW, I thought scum could discuss quests outside game. When I realized they didn't I thought oh crap probably two scum on that and both scared to double flip which is why I expected it to fail once I realized that. ALSO, because of the success on 2 and not 3 I am THOROUGHLY convinced that 2/3 in that group are bad and that ONE of them coded to the other that they'd do the bad in mission 3 and that code is somewhere in this damn thread. THIS BEING because I see no reason to succeed 2 but fail 3 as scum unless there were two scum in it and one was scared. No reason for one solo scum to fail Quest 2. #PincheOwnage #LearnMechsYouIdiots I AM TOWN.

i just think that was uranus was trying to push that whole thing through knowing that she would just fail it immediately after, i sort of elaborated on it throughout and i also dont like how she always gets defensive when anyone accuses her. i've been going mostly off logical instead of emotional and i've given you more benefit of the doubt given that your read during quest 2 was much more logical while uranus has mostly just spoke incessant FUD.

Who I prove hm okay um

Me....Me...hm oh also ME!

There's 1 scum in cat and jack and i'm trying to think on who that is use your best call on that despite the feud I feel like Nicki is scum over Uranus so if you can tell me what's so bad about Uranus so I can see it to that would be really helpful so I can change my read in Pinche/Sonrio I think if jack is scum so is pinche

So my scum read for teams atm are: Nicki/Jack/Pinche
or
Nicki/Sonrio/Cat (leaning on the first one atm)

yeah, one of the 3 scum is just labeled assassin which obviously only matters postgame if good wins
deletedabout 9 years

jack says

no but like what do you mean by indy

deletedabout 9 years

Stragger telling you right now if you take nicki on the quest I am aborting it and not coming back until I get a pm saying so

i thought assassin was indy unless im reading the rules wrong lol
about 9 years
what's the indy? you should take me i'm good
deletedabout 9 years
i'm not bringing jack/sonia or uranus. i think uranus is scum fire and foremost and i'm not really trusting the complacency that was bothering me last night with people thinking it was just autowin. im a little skeptical of jack but i legitimately just think he's the indy unless im reading this game wrong.

I want to give Sonrio a chance tbh and I don't think i'm ever not taking Stragger on a quest with me I'm thinking this over a lot don't worry that's just first glance
deletedabout 9 years
wow it's like i have esp this game.
