Resistance 3.0: Medieval edition!

almost 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.

So obviously Uranus FOS me for.... Yeah idk forced reads or something(???) , what say you guys about me?

Also, to note, this is not a game where you buddy teammates seeing as the objective is to distance yourself from your partners so you all are sided or agreeing with different people (therefore no matter what at least ONE of you makes the mission) so the read that I would buddy and protect Nicki because we are partners is, frankly, ludicrous.

kinda disappointed retti somehow has made a switch to me appearing evil, i hope that's not sincere because i am indeed merlin

erm honestly i think nicki might be evil which is why i chose the other two and i liked retti's thought process up till that point so thats why i did the other 3 for this quest

well uh thanks for clearing yourself i guess lol

Stragger says

what we know from quest one:

nicki uranus sonia - PASS PASS FAIL

see the discrepancy? putting both uranus and sonia on the same mission allows it that even if they were scum they would not risk revealing themselves by failing, because it's confirmed one of these three did so.

no. putting them on the same quest will not scare scum away from failing it. they can sack themselves completely as long as town doesn't find the other 2, they would be up 2-0 and win in the final 5 person quest. There is absolutely ZERO chance this town wins if me and Uranus are both town, due to Uranus having a terrible read on me.

so do you think the optimal route is to choose to abort a mission yet again? bare in mind that we're nearing the 5th quest where scum would win by default if town doesn't magically pull through at this rate.

Also, a lot of the novelty of the game is lost in this being forum based. I know we can't change it but nothing is better than playing irl and 3 people go on the quest and 2 people fail it because they don't have any way to communicate who will play the black card and who will play red. Sad. :(

Btw, I change my vote. I PASS the mission. I actually don't know if there is a mission nominated but if there is I pass it.

Back to the salt mines with ya, Jeff my boy.

What you are applying isn't heat. You are literally saying without a doubt that I am scum and you won't considered the opposite. What the hell am I supposed to do here? Anything I do you will call forced and we are in no better of a situation.

Reminder! The push on me from people came when I said I wouldn't pass a mission I wasn't on when we are down 1-0, HOW TERRIBLE OF ME TO SAY!!!

deletedalmost 9 years

Ok man. I already know we have lost the game because if you are town it's over. Thank you for making us lose on quest one, bud.

nah for real Uranus you're annoying. If you are town I want you to know that the reason we will lose is purely on you. I am not scum here and if you are town you have already lost us this game and we have only been on one Quest.

yo, host. can i sub out of this? this is insanely annoying and I'm not enjoying myself. I hate to be a baby about this but this is just not fun when I have Uranus literally not even thinking about anything. People like you, Uranus, ruin this otherwise fun game because you are completely blinded by your tunnel vision.

You say, as you openly scumread me but attempt to swing away from yourself all responsibility if you're wrong.

You attempted to join the bandwagon of people scumreading me by making one of the most flagrantly fake reads I've ever seen in any game which involves reading other players.

Uranus says

I sort of get the feeling we've already lost this one because we're probably going to get to mission 5 at the rate we're going and most likely at least one of the people tunneling me for a completely idiotic reason is town.

my sentiments exactly to you. ;)

It's not an OMGUS, you're blatantly scum.

Let me tell you that I have outed reads that I find legitimate and real and that if you are town Uranus you will have no right to blame it on me when we lose due to the fact that you are completely closed off and persistent in your bad read on me.

failing everything i'm on is an absolutely terrible terrible terrible idea. talk about your salty omgus LMAO
