Let's give Squinty a chance to play, if he wants, since he's hosted the last 2 resistance games.


If you're unfamiliar with the basics of the game, it's right here. Here is an example of one played out on NGA (it began with a rocky start on figuring out the rules). If you wanna see one played out, watch this video:





1: Zherog
2: squinty_eyes
3: Mown
4: Roaring Mouse
5: bentz



6: razorborne
7: altimis
8: seTiny
9: aaarrrgh
10:

We need at least 5 players, and as many as 10.



Despite the name, goblins have taken over the forum. It's up to you, the resistance, to reclaim all of the areas of the site from the goblins.

Who will step up and rightfully reclaim NGA from the dreaded goblins?

(*) Two Mission Fail cards are required for the mission to fail

As long as the game starts on or after the 7th, I'm in. (Now to keep reading the linked thread and figure out how the game works - five pages in, it still isn't too clear.)

I'm pretty sure we can hold off till the 7th (assuming we even have enough players by then).

And, it's actually less complicated than it looks.
Someone starts off, and picks X number of people to go on the mission (X depends on the number of players).
Everyone votes on if that mission should happen. If it does, then the players on the mission send in cards (via PM to me) saying Pass or Fail. Resistance members can only send in Pass cards. Spies can send in either. If it fails, the spies get one point, if it succeeds, the resistance gets one point. First to 3 points wins.

If people vote no on the mission, then the next player in line gets to pick a team. Same thing, propose a team and vote on it. If 4 teams are voted "no" then the 5th team automatically goes.

Oh, the rules I've got pretty straight. That doesn't really tell me how the game works though.

Callin' me out, are ya Neo? Well fine, I'll play this game!

Pretty much!

Don't let Neo on any missions, he's always a spy!

Hey. No goblins allowed.

Dibs on Assassin.

In!

Mouse is the spy. I have seen the future.

**Snicker**

It's fun being a spy.

Looks fun, I'm in, never played this game before.

Welcome to PbP, Bentz!

I've only ever played this twice...it's pretty easy to pick up, once the game started. Just watch out for those spies!

Oh - and while we have the minimum number of players, I'm going to keep signups open till the 6th or 7th, to see if we get more people, and so we've got that Zherog guy available. What a troublemaker that one is...

More true words have rarely been spoken.

NeoSilk, are you going to run vanilla or play with any roles/cards/tokens?

Most likely, it will be vanilla. I could do Merlin, but, since I've only seen that once...dunno, we'll see!

Is there a reason for the resistance members to send you pass cards? you know they pass, and no one else knows if they sent you PM or not.

Don't we also get cute actresses to play with us?
