Man even if all the townies voted together in the final election, we didn't have 5 townies. We had VE, GreyMist, myself, and Radfield, and two townies didn't vote: Zona and Jackal.

With 4 town players you can't get a majority of 5.

I guess one thing with resistance-style games is that elections come and go quickly since new ones can start when 5 nays come up, so you have to preemptively vote based on your reads or check back a lot, or else something like this can happen.

I'm actually comfortable with my level of activity. I wish I had argued better against Radfield. I think I was suspicious of why he picked me, then the delayed explanation, then the non-self-vote then he and jackal hammered it home... then the mission failed and I was like "man clearly Radfield has some long convoluted plan to make me the fall guy" and things only went downhill from there. Like, everything I did makes sense if you think that Radfield had no reasonable reason to chose me for his team D1.

I was always very aggressive with my votes. That being said, I actually think we would have STILL been fine, even with this crunch time, if jackal and Zona checked in before the game end deadline.

Just wanted to provide an outsider's point of view:

In Resistance, one of the most effective ways to gain information is through the voting process. In fact, once the players become more experienced with the game, it is very common to go through multiple leaders each day.

I was going to post some guides before the game began, but no one seemed interested enough.

I was interested! I even posted links to other forum games of Resistance! D:

But the thing is you were so tunneled in that when he provided a reason (verily, TWO MINUTES after you commented that he had none), you weren't hearing it. You had already made up your mind.

Take it from the tunnel-master...tunneling is bad to the nth.


This guy knows it!


Radfield's accusations of me were all terrible, and the fact that he tunneled me didn't help. I didn't think he had a good reason, and I honestly still don't. It didn't make sense to me that, as a town player, Rad would grab someone who had made a "scumslip" AND be following my pattern BUT not admit it. The fact that he went after me rather than Palmar later on only further convinced me.

Also, I don't know why everyone was obsessed with passing the first team that came by day 1, or that it's scummy not to do so. I saw a team that looked suspicious, so I nayed it.

Good game guys, next time you should try to be a little more active. I can see how judging people (like zona or jackal) is hard when there's so little information. I don't think scum did well, not at all, but we were able to do whatever we wanted to do, given that nothing was happening.

You had no valid reason for calling it suspicious, and it included yourself.


Dude I totally did! The fact that I was wrong about radfield doesn't mean it wasn't a weird way he went about things. In fact, he was suspicious enough that Zona thought he was scum.

Oh, I want to be picked for a night team because the chance of scum for an N1 mission goes from like enormous to small. But something felt off about the way Radfield made his post. If you think the guy who's picking you is scum, IF YOU REALLY THINK THAT, are you still gonna vote yay?

Obviously if I am unsure I will vote nay. But I thought he was scum. There IS information D1, and that's how Radfield picked me. He read me as town. I read him as scum, and so I tried to "unpick" him by voting nay and passing leadership to the next leader.

Look if every townsperson just yay-votes their own team, then a scum player could easily pick two townies to go with him and get a free sabotage N1, right? That's terrible. People should use the time to talk, form reads, and have rounds of nay-votes. Like, ok here's the other thing-- everyone else just yay-voted the team without much discussion. that was also a problem.

This game is impossible to win as town.


Strong disagree. Town only needs to win one of the first 3 missions, and mission 4 is free for them.

Even near the end, if we had won N3, we'd also win N4 and have decent odds going into N5.

I don't think we lost by a huge amount, honestly, despite the 3-0 score.

This is wrong too. Down-voting teams IS IN ITSELF a valid reason. You gain information about the other players and who THEY support.


I agree with KJ. Ideally, we'd all be super active and everyone would have to propose a team D1 and people would vote, etc, and lots of info would get recorded, then a team would pass and we'd have several pages of votes and evidence to look through.

No, you always need a reason to downvote, because if you do it without reason, scum can do the same randomly if they're smart, and suddenly the voting patterns become useless. If you want to use voting patterns, they have to mean something. Randomly downvoting teams for the simple reason of downvoting them actually destroys evidence, instead of providing it.

See, this is a fair statement, but on day 1 we didn't have any voting patterns-- the first team passed. If I voted yay, it'd have passed unanimously, and then where would we be?

I wouldn't want the first game to be too low-level. It will still be fun but it may not be as intense.


Here are some completed game threads I found on mafiascum to get an idea of how this plays out:

http://mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=17111
http://mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=14946

In case people are looking for reference/research.



Did anyone read through these sweet games?

Look what happens in say, the second link. Guy proposes the first team and instead of everyone blind yayvoting, there's discussion, and tons of people vote nay, and it establishes a body of evidence, and the game goes on.
