UV2 23:18:17 – Remind me exactly what you’re thinking.
UV1 23:18:19 – Well, ever since we brought him on we’ve been getting hit by the fuzz. He hasn’t completed a single mission yet.
UV2 23:18:26 – Could it be coincidence?
UV1 23:18:28 – Yeah, of course. We’ve got other guys that you can say the same thing about. All came around the same time, no inflows, no reference.
UV2 23:18:32 – Jesus, we’re taking guys without a word now?
UV1 23:18:35 – Yeah, well the boss is desperate. Cash is low. We need an influx bad, or we ain’t gonna make it.
UV2 23:18:39 – Okay, well then do what you have to.
UV1 23:18:42 – Understood.
Mission Assignments
The room seems lighter than usual. You instinctively reach for your lighter but find that you can read the notices without it. Maybe you are getting used to this place after all.
The first: Grim prognosis. Send gift basket. Need 4 - $35,000.
The second: Roxy signed #10. This was inadvisable. $25K and 5.
The third: Listening post crypted. Mop up and find source. 4 for $35,000.
For the first time, the temperature inside the room is the same as that outside.
Choose a mission by mentioning the flyer number in limegreen
Day 1 - $145k available
Day 2 - $125k available
Day 3 - $100k available
Day 4 - $95k available
Pretty sure we're boned on the money front. Even assuming we pull in all the money from today, we'd still be $125k away from what we need (if $300k is the goal), and the pot has been decreasing each day.
Now, the big question is if the undercover agents must sabotage any mission they're on. The OP indicates not ("The agents (“mafia”) have the option to sabotage any mission for which they have a member enrolled. If a mission is sabotaged, the mission fails, and no money is gained by the syndicate."). Emphasis mine. So we can't totally rule out folk who have been on successful missions.
No, I'm 0 for 3. I belong down at the bottom, on the chopping block
We're not counting the failure of your night 1 mission because INANTP was on it. His presence means we have no information on whether or not you sabotaged on night 1.
I mean I'll vote for you if you want me to but no reason to throw yourself under the bus. There are plenty of us here willing to do it for you.

Oh, gotcha! I wasn't sure if you were still going with that rubric after the dots debacle from premium's awesome infographic. In that case, nothing to see here fellas! Who wants more chicken parm?

Day 1-3 union: Baidol, Iron Weasel, kime, vertroue.
So... are we basically boned? This is the idea that I am getting.
By not killing anyone, they have made it harder to eliminate targets. We only have three days left. Actually I don't know how we can win at all unless the mafia is very small.
We know at least one of the following in each set is a saboteur:
Day 1: (KetBra, kime, Mikey CTS, premium, Retaba, vertroue)
Day 1: (Baidol, GrimmyTOA, Iron Weasel, jdarksun, ObiFett)
Day 2: (Baidol, Iron Weasel, kime, OminousLozenge)
Day 2: (bliss101, Invictus, Phyphor, premium, vertroue)
Day 3: (Baidol, Iron Weasel, kime, vertroue)
Day 3: (CesareB, Cythraul, OminousLozenge, Phyphor, The Anonymous)
The Bad Guys have ~5 members. There are six data points, so there is at least one degree of commonality here.
Who has only showed up once?
bliss101, CesareB, Cythraul, GrimmyTOA, Invictus, jdarksun, KetBra, Mikey CTS, ObiFett, Retaba, The Anonymous. These people are not cleared, but they're not the most likely.
The way I figure it, one of the following is definitely a Bad Guy: Baidol, Iron Weasel, kime, OminousLozenge, Phyphor, premium, or vertroue.
Baidol, Iron Weasel, and kime are especially toxic.
Next task: go back through and see who picked missions vs. had it assigned to them.

The boss is pleased to see that none of his men managed to get nabbed by the police.
He is less pleased with the continual police presence at your perfectly legitimate activities.
The current pot is $80,000

Also uh?
I'm guessing Mission 1 succeeded as well. Implying 2 and 3 failed.
Penny Arcade Rockstar Social Club / This is why I despise cyclists
So either mafia weren't sabotaging any others, in order to hide, or the quarantine was a resounding success.
No, we already had 25k. Mission 3 failed as well.

So we have a short list of kime baidol iw and Vertroue
And group 2 got a Mission Failed message.

It's right if everyone went where they were supposed to. Did they?
