Oh well.

Before doing anything else, I want to know if I was right to trust Audren and Jacksonian. I'm thinking I can achieve that by giving Open Up to deathbywombat. Any comments?

No. I thought it was a bad idea letting him on the team in the first place.

I suggest proposing a team of Audren (depending on what IH got), Jackson, yourself and myself (giving me the card as I'm unknown).

I just don't like the entire "Audren and Jackson have to be resistance or we've lost" thing. But I guess at this point we no longer have the luxury of making only safe choices and kinda have to make assumptions.

####Pass Open Up to Daffius

Will wait for the result before distributing the other cards.

I was wondering how you'd hand that out. It's an important card, and we want to maximize information from it. Thus giving it to Ironhead or Falc would be most useful, since we'd then have more information on their claims so far. Instead you give it to Daffius, who hasn't been on a single passed team and thus having someone claim his allegiance gives us little information. I'll also point out how illogical Daffius has been with his actions so far. He claims he never wanted Deathbywombat on a team to begin with, yet he just approved the team proposed by Deathbywombat, containing Deathbywombat. Though he had rejected the previous team proposed by me also containing Deathbywombat, yet lacking Panzer. And now he's utterly convinced that Panzer, audren, and Jacksonian are confirmed resistance. I'm having a real hard time not seeing this as confirmation that Daffius and Panzer are spies. This would also mean one of Falc and Ironhide must also be a spy, since Daffius wouldn't want to out himself to a resistance member. Or maybe he does, so he can claim Ironhide or Falc is a confirmed spy for "lying" about his role. Suffice to say, I'm rejecting any team with Panzer or Daffius on it.
 
Okay if Audren passed this and since I passed this (I'm resistance) then probably the spy in the group is probably wombat, since I believe Panzer's actions have been shown to be worthy. The next team I'd propose is me, Audren, Panzer, and Aeden
 
I am increasingly liking aedan777 as Resistance, which necessary means I have to view Panzer Commader and Daffius with suspicion for the passing of the Open Up card. However, I agree that the card should be played on either me or Falc.
 
Putting Panzer, Daffius, and Avatar on any future team would be absolutely insane. The only discrepancy between aedan's proposal and mine was switching panzer for aedan. Aedan's proposal (which was the obvious correct proposal, namely people that hadn't okayed that second failed mission and the two scanned goodies) failed 5-5. 4 people switched votes away from this team, (Avatar, Ironhead, Panzer, and Daffius), and the failed mission was passed 8-2. (I thought Daffius voted no on my proposal, but madchemist's update indicates otherwise - PM vote?) Panzer took the no confidence card from Falc, threatened to veto any mission except one with him on it, and gets an 8-2 vote for a mission with one sabotage. He then proceeds to waste Open up, an extremely powerful card, on Daffius, which gives us precisely 0 provable information at a critical time in the game, rather than breaking the Falc/Ironhead deadlock or figuring out if Jackson or I sabotaged the 3rd mission.

Exactly this. I'd like to add that Avatar voted down aedan's mission, claiming that "all members having been accused with varying degrees of support of being a spy," (#129)
and then accepts 3/4 of the same team the next round. That's either sloppy, sloppy spy play, or lunacy.

Avatar, Daffius, and Panzer are all likely spies (or one of them is cosplaying as an intellectual dumpster fire), with Ironhide or Falc as the 4th probable spy. At this point, I'd say Falc is more likely to be innocent than Ironhead - Panzer Commander swiped a no confidence card from him, and Ironhead voted for the failed mission while Falc voted against it.

Regardless, this team should be clean:
Audren
Jacksonian Missionary
DeathbyWombat
Aedan
Ironhide G1

Please be careful in distinguishing between Ironhide and Ironhead. Either Falc or me is Spy. Ironhide is not part of that calculus. However, I have contended (and continue to do so) that Ironhide is supsicious for giving Falc the No Confidence card. If he is a Spy, then one of Avatar/Daffius/Panzer cannot be.

Apologies - didn't mean to mix you up.
 
So to clear things up. Aedan and Falc rejected the mission. I made no secret about the fact that I find them suspicious. Since both rejected there was a chance for this being a clean mission. I was hoping if it was, then my public reject would get other spies to reject publicly and we could weed them put.

As for revealing my role. Audren has been confirmed goodie by Falc and has been confirmed support by Ironhead. I believe he is the most clear of us currently.

Reveal my role to Audren

Ah, so because I was against the mission, any other factors regarding it were rendered null. That worked real well, didn't it? That's a terrible defense anyways. Even if your random accusations were right, there would still be two other spies approving it. And you can't do that. Open up has to be given to a player next to you on the leader order, and Audren isn't.

Shit. I didn't register that part of the rules. Panzer please give it to someone else? It hasn't been used and my neighbours are Falc and Ironhide from who we'll gain nothing.
Come to think of it, panzer you knew the rules... did you check this before giving me? If yes that's a huge spy point.
 
In regards to my rejection and then approval, that was sloppy play and I do concede that that does give me severe baddie points, a result of my own idiocy(but not lunacy).

Looking at dbw clean team:

Audren - Very likely to be clean, it would take a lot of seemingly unrelated people in terms of actions for him to be a spy.
Jacksonian Missionary - Same situation as Audren, though without some of the extra support besides from the scan
DeathbyWombat - Very keen to pin the blame on someone else for the sabotage, with many new "calls" of spy coming from him right after mission failure, suspicious much?
Aedan - Seems to be teaming up with and agreeing with dbw a lot, also went extremely on the offensive as soon as the mission failed.
Ironhide G1 - Made lots of what could be construed as baddie tells, though could just be bad play and terrible wording like my "tells".

I will admit that considering how badly I have been playing, though it is my first game, that any of my above conclusions should be taken with a pinch of salt, but not outright discarded.

Anyway regardless, would it be considered bad play to deliberately "forget" to vote? Because I admit that right now I have no clue who I should actually be listening to.
 
I asked for help handing it out and actually went with what I was told instead of my original idea. Nobody has any right to come out now and say there was a better use for it. If so, why didn't you suggest it? Unless maybe you *didn't* want us to make the best out of the card. It's quite convenient, really, you get to not help us use it correctly and then put the blame on someone else as well.
 
Oh dear. Daffius is a spy!
 
Oh dear. Daffius is a spy!

Ok, that just lost the game for resistance! Good game spies.There is no way I can prove that Audren is lying considering both Falc and Ironhead cleared him.

For all those resistance out there, why would I give the card to the pressumed most clear player?

So spy team:
Falc
Audren
Pressmued mates:
Ironhead
Ironhide

@aedan777: apologies for doubting you.

To be fair, that would explain why Audren gave both Falc and Ironhead the scanning cards. A bit too obvious perhaps but that kinda stuff often works here actually. We also mustn't forget that both Audren and DBW could've been spies, and Audren wouldn't have sabotaged given DBW proposed the team.
