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.

I JUST REMEMBERED ABOUT THIS

im currently in class and i remember retti asking me abt my uranus fos so its that she picked herself in the first mission and idk its just convenient. it wasnt that much of a serious read so i wouldnt discuss more of it. ill do more laterr


so there's basically 2 schools of thought about being the leader on the first quest. the first is putting yourself on because you know you're good and you have 1 less good person to find in a sea of complete unknown. likewise if you're evil you put yourself on because it's an easy fail and you don't want to make any relationships apparent between you and your evil mates

the second school of thought, one i generally subscribe to, is put 3 randoms on to find more good people and get more information. that's really only applicable if you're good, if you're evil you'd put a teammate on instead of you but that's less popular

so, it's a good fos tbh. i'm not sure on uranus but it's certainly a decent read to say the least. this is also why i agree with stragger that sonia/uranus on a quest together would be good since they're playing kinda curiously

that being said i want to put them both on a mission because i believe that even if one were scum, they would both choose to pass because they would want to look town so they don't look incriminating, or at least that's what i think.


really good post here

uranus is right in the sense that we do need to be relatively perfect from here on out. the quests go 3, 4, 4, 5 (2 to fail), 5; which means that we need to get a success out of quests 2 and 3 to have a very solid shot at winning. it's balls difficult for evil to fail quest 4 with the 2 to fail so if we have 2 up on them by that time we should win.

as for your question sonia i don't know yet, i definitely agree radio should be dropped and pinche added. at least that way we can get some reads off that character.

i'm not going to vote just yet but i'm heavily leaning reject on this mission, heavily influenced by the fact that i get to pick next

i also think nicki's reasoning isn't all too stelllar so that's why i want to abort this too, though i didn't understand why uranus would because i haven't seen her have problems with me or jack (maybe nicki) but passing at first was telling in that sense that she hasn't really thought about nicki as much unless im completely wrong.

the other side of the spectrum is sonia getting at uranus because of that and earlier i liked uranus' hesitance before but i'd say sonia is actually the more logical here, which what matters to me more.

I'll most likely be saying this more then once but sorry if I say anything hurtful in the heat of the moment when I get passionate in games like these I say my anger when things like very clear to me in a hurtful manor that's not needed of me

I would like to ask anyone on the mission who passes this who you think the other 2 scum are out of Sonrio Cat and Radio (if you pass this you auto think I am one)

Also, please replace RadioYouth with Pinche.

Please.

Anyway, I actually have to go. Sonia is right that from a data collection point of view, this is probably a poor mission to let through. I'll check back later.

Unvote

the only thing i care about with current events is why you redacted your pass uranus


Well initially my pass was to try and make her drop her idiotic gimmick, so I redacted it when she dropped it. But then she started scumtelling out of every orifice so I revoted pass.


xSoniaNeverMindx says

It's to be expected? Someone show me the rule book that says I should just make a new post instead of edit by all means if it's to be expected why did you not say anything Please teach me more on the forum posting 101 tips


You shouldn't make significant edits in forum mafia-esque games without at least putting a note on the post explaining what the edit was.

You're pretty sure it's me... but you also think it can nicki just as much as it can be me... which makes... what kind of sense?

I said i'm pretty sure it's you smart one and I still do me posting logic on how it can be nikki as much as it can be you is a crime now please
Everyone else will abort this because if you think there's not 1 scum on that your saying they picked near prefectly AND if your not on it already you are saying they DID pick prefect and the other 3 are scum this is going to fail and were aborting this so stop wasting my time

"Slow on the uptake" PLEASE I have played this game FAR LONGER then any of you people the only person who can dare even try to say they played this longer then me is Jack I understand everything that's happening this game

Even if it was to fail that's data of course the main goal is to get a quest that will pass but picking someone in the same group besides yourself and it failing where is that going to leave us the same place we started

xSoniaNeverMindx says

So you're saying you would risk a 50/50 shot at PICKING SOME WHO WILL OBV FAIL IT LIKE LAST TIME over someone else who has not been on a mission to collect more data?..Alrighty I don't get who's scum in u2 your whole day 1 was ugh but Nicki picking those is almost like she has no need to care and that's very true for scum when all you need is for this to pass


Two posts ago, I was the scum in us three. Now you're painting it as nicki all of a sudden?
