Captain Blackadder, I think it is a given that the mob wants you to kill them both. Just in case you weren't aware :beam:.

And if you don't do this you will be next:whip:

[thefluffyone93]

Oh phooey....
I really wanted to muck up everyone's plans...

Well it is what I want as well we have an embarrassment of riches in terms of who is acting scummy.

[landlubber]

Just how much am I allowed to do while dead? Can I offer my opinions on who to lynch, vig, and protect?

[GeneralHankerchief]

Please send your orders to GeneralHankerchief ONLY. Do not send them to issaikhaan.

"Drove back to town this morning with working on my mind
I thought of maybe quitting
thought of leaving it behind
went back to bed this morning
and as I'm pulling down the blind
the sky was dull and hypothetical
and falling one cloud at a time

That night in Toronto with its checkerboard floors
riding on horseback and keeping order restored
til the men they couldn't hang
stepped to the mic and sang
and their voices rang with that Aryan twang"

8:19PM Saturday 5 November 1951
The Executive Meeting Room (Small Ballroom)
Fatlington Convention Center
Fatlington, New Jersey

It had been a very hectic Committee selection, most of it probably due to the fallout from the previous day's meeting. Askthepizzaguy, hamming it up for all the world to see, had essentially proclaimed his guilt and made references to odd things that reminded many Fatlings of the old Flash Gordon serials with a bit of mysticism thrown in. Somehow he had gotten his way out of a lynch due to some legal trickery, and exited the ballroom that evening with an air of supreme confidence.

The following day, he was as confident as ever. Clearly having made some telephone calls the night before, it seemed for a while that landlubber would be the target instead, but a late surge in voting had actually tied the two up. Pizza, for his part, was starting to look around nervously. They were cutting things close, time was running out, he adjusted his tie...

"Fermanagh," Director Blackadder called out to the police commissioner, "If you wouldn't mind escorting Pizza, landlubber, and myself down to Club 30 in your car. The closed-circuit cameras are still set up, yes?

"I believe they are," the Commissioner replied. Blackadder nodded and grabbed both "candidates" by the wrist. Exhibiting surprisingly strong grip, Blackadder summarily dragged the two out of the room, out of the Convention Center, out on the street, and into Fermanagh's cop car where they all drove off and left the rest of the Committee with nothing to do but wait.

"He's never going to do it," one member said, breaking the silence. "Pizza's lawyer is probably already enjoying a drink at the Club anyway."

"Yeah," somebody else replied. "Besides, Blackadder's in bed with landlubber anyway. After all this, he'll probably just get his fellow scumbuddy off and the two will have a big laugh at our expense." Needless to say, the mood in the ballroom was glum.

Interlude -- The Streets of Fatlington

Both perps sitting in the back seat of Fermanagh's cruiser were nervous, although they showed it in certain ways. Pizza had mostly clamped down on the hamminess, instead visibly starting to sweat and glancing around for another car every two seconds or so. Clearly he had not given up on a last-second pardon. lubber, on the other hand, had put on a facade of acceptance, trying to make small talk with the other people in the car to no avail. However, in a moment of silence, he pounded his fist on the window in frustration at his predicament.

The Director, for his part, was changing into what appeared to be a World War I-era British officer's uniform. Certainly not typical Club 30 fare, but after all, he was Director. Reenk would have to let it pass. Besides, his business inside the establishment would not take long.

8:40PM -- The Executive Meeting Room

Back at the Convention Center, the closed-circuit televisions had all been set up and the Committee members gathered around to watch what was currently a normal night in the Club. There was a view of the bar, where Reenk was serving his customarily-stylish drinks, another one of the dance floor, where there was *not* a masquerade going on this time, another one of oddly enough the bathroom where, had the televisions been of futuristic quality, one may have seen the hint of old bloodstains.

The Committee members watching the television that gave them a view of the club's entrance shouted over at everybody else; three new figures had walked in and were heading over to the bar. It was very obvious that the three were Blackadder, still dragging Pizzaguy and landlubber behind him. Oddly enough, at that moment a very strange tune began playing through the television's speakers.

<object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/56kfYoyTTqU?version=3"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/56kfYoyTTqU?version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="25"></object>

They all watched as Blackadder took a seat at one of the stools, smartly propping up his two perps in the stools alongside his. Reenk, tending bar, came over to them, looked at all three of them quizzically, and then just shrugged. What could you do, honestly?

"One ale and two specials, please," the Director said, and everybody on the Committee waited. landlubber was staring off vacantly into space, looking vaguely angry about his entire situation. Askthepizzaguy was still looking around the club, hoping to find a certain person he knew dancing.

"One ale and two specials," said Reenk, back with the drinks. "You'll be quick about it?" The Director nodded. "Good. It's Ladies' Night here at the club and... well... to be frank you're scaring them away."

Blackadder nodded, pushing the 'specials' in reaching range of Pizza and lubber, who looked as if the very last thing they wanted to do in the world right now was take a drink of what was inside. "Don't worry," said the Director, "it's simply a very strong drink. You'll want the edge off, trust me."

That was good enough for lubber. He finished his in one large gulp and felt woozy instantly. Right before he passed out for good, he heard the Director's voice, coming from far away now and yet still coming through clearly:

"Lubber you fool, your brain is like the four-headed man-eating haddock-fish-beast of Aberdeen."

"In what way?" lubber managed to mumble.

"It doesn't exist." Back at the Convention Center, everybody watching swore they heard a laugh track as lubber slumped to the ground.

Next up was Pizza. "Jig's up, mate," everyone at the Convention center heard Blackadder saying through the television. "Nobody's coming to save you. So why don't you just finish it now instead of dragging it out?" Pizza, defeated, looked around for one final time...

...and then on one of the other televisions somebody gave a shout. A familiar-looking man waving around a piece of paper had just entered Club 30. Everybody groaned. They all knew what happened next.

*post not bolded

[GeneralHankerchief]

Additionally, those of you submitting investigations, please tell me what level of investigation you are on. Thanks. :bow:

[Montmorency]

But why did Pizza get himself lynched? I get the feeling his last post wasn't reverse psychology. There's something deeper to this.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Disregard current writeup, there's been an error.

[Montmorency]

:Then he lives. :worried2::shame:

[Ishmael]

Aw, dang. We were going so well, too.

EDIT: Although considering all the references in the write-up to ATPG thinking he'd get off, it looks like our hosts had the lawyer thing covered. So I wonder what it could be?

EDIT2: ...or maybe not

[GeneralHankerchief]

Writeup has been altered.

[Montmorency]

Let's take a look at all those who argued strongly against the existence of a Mafia Lawyer.

[classical_hero]

I can't believe you guys fell for it again. :laugh4:

[scotchedpommes]

Lubber you fool, your brain is like the four-headed man-eating haddock-fish-beast of Aberdeen.:inquisitive:

[GeneralHankerchief]

Blackadder's request, don't lynch me. :hide:

[Askthepizzaguy]

Askthepalpatine- 2
Barzini- 0
Town- 0

[Montmorency]

How about them Tataglia?

Just remember guys: Pizza himself is powerless. He isn't a made; he's just a wiseguy with a lot of information and a loyal following. He organizes, and by now the Mafia are organized to the point that his loss wouldn't hurt them. You need to take out Mades: kill the body and the head becomes irrelevant.

[Askthepizzaguy]

How about them Tataglia?

Well, they're not doing so hot at the moment. Could be because Master Necromanver was their Don, Drunk Clown was their Luca, and Jolt was their Made.

The first one never showed up, the second one gave his own team the bird and was active elsewhere on the org, but refused to help his team, and then Jolt had really no reason to bother playing, and then someone picked him off before I could recruit him into a viable family. And I'm not being coy, his death was not ordered by me. The Corleone do their own thing now.

OOC:
The tale of the Tataglia is a tragic one. And it's one of the things that still bothers me about the game. I had hoped I could have given Jolt a chance at victory but I wasn't told who he was until last night, and he was hit. One of the most unfair things that will happen to a Made Gangster.

Beating a mafia family is fine, but a guy who was essentially partnerless all game, not as sporting.

[Montmorency]

Another notice: All non-scum wiseguys should form exclusive vig groups. Do not dilute your strength through participation in townie vig efforts.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Due to lack of N7 information until now, I requested an extension.

I will send out suggestions for default actions for N8- please disregard these orders as soon as an extension is granted.

They will be functional and boring, but better than no viable group actions tonight. I'd still prefer to go with post-extension orders instead, but these will prevent folks from having nothing to do if no extension is granted.

From what I understand it's a horrible night for everyone, not just these groups, so hopefully it balances out.

Edit: Also I didn't include everyone I wanted to include. I'm under time pressure and have to sleep and stuff.

[The Stranger]

i agree. i never even got my n7 info.

ah wait i just did.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Okay, due to the large amounts of difficulties we've had with the previous night's feedback PMs, I'm forced to extend the round until we get these in order. The new timer is as follows:



If you are waiting on a PM, please tell me exactly what you are expecting and anything else that may be of help to us.

We apologize for the delays and thank you for your continued patience. The game should progress a lot smoother after this night phase is ended.

I can haz win?

[landlubber]

Should I be insulted that the writeup constantly implies that I'm a complete idiot?

[White_eyes:D]

I would blame the good Captain Blackadder for that one.:mean:

[Arjos]

Well I can enjoy Blackadder's references and having a laugh ^^

[Double A]

Should I be insulted that the writeup constantly implies that I'm a complete idiot?

No, Baulders, it's perfectly fine. In fact, I would say some of them were quite complementary to a person of your... uniqueness.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Should I be insulted that the writeup constantly implies that I'm a complete idiot?

Don't take anything in the lynch writeups seriously. In Capo III, the Director at the time implied that I was on my knees and begging him for mercy.

[sturmhauke]

Don't take anything in the lynch writeups seriously.

What's wrong with you, man? Can't you see this is serious business? The fate of all Fatlington - nay, all mankind - nay, the very universe hangs in the balance!

[Askthepizzaguy]

Should I be insulted that the writeup constantly implies that I'm a complete idiot?

OOC:
I refer you to the "Neutral Avenger" kills I wrote.

I began with Raskolnikov and basically implied he was a coward who weeps like a girl. I also sent him a message letting him know it wasn't personal in the slightest, these sorts of slapstick writeups are always implying things that aren't true. He laughed at his writeup.

I did terribly naughty things to a bunch more people, and even did the writeup where I failed hard and exposed myself trying to hit Psychonaut, and wrote the ending where I exploded pizza stuff all over myself and looked like a moron.

Definitely all in good fun, sir, and no one thinks you're an idiot.

Now, as for me, on the other hand, people say terrible things about me constantly. :clown:

[Askthepizzaguy]

Also, to all involved:

Your temporary N8 orders stand unless you get a message from me. I realize some of those actions weren't too hasty, but I'd like to reorganize a couple of those actions.

[Andres]

Don't take anything in the lynch writeups seriously. In Capo III, the Director at the time implied that I was on my knees and begging him for mercy.

While in reality, you were lying on the floor, uncontrollably crying and yelling and eventually passed out after wetting your pants... ~;p

That's what your avatar makes me do.

You're the only one whose avatar is still cooler than mine.

I think my reaction at being attacked and living can be described roughly like this (http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=209).

[gibsonsg91921]

my avatar is the greater peter von kastilien and is the coolest man ever

[Askthepizzaguy]

No internet all day long, just got it back with 5 hours left to go.

Many folks didn't send in orders, many others seem uncoordinated, and my suggestions were hastily arranged with not a lot of intra-network discussion.

There will be an apparent lack of progress on many fronts. Relax, it's due to this being a generally poopy night for all concerned.

Night Nine will go much more smoothly. Lets' begin planning ahead for that, especially you folks who had nothing to do tonight. Contact me and we'll work on your tasks first thing, or start looking for your own groups now.

Your cover is blown, D. :yes:

:wink:

[GamezRule]

It's okay. Apparently no mafia can be lynched because of that dad-gummed lawyer!

[Chaotix]

It's okay. Apparently no mafia can be lynched because of that dad-gummed lawyer!

Where did you get that idea? It's only ATPG that can't be lynched. And everybody else is mafia. So that would be impossible.

[edse]

The lawyer must be a one time possibility for each mafia family. If so, double lynches with ATPG should soon be successful.

[Montmorency]

Let's not try that one again. Last lynch, we got a double because

a. Pizza wanted landlubber dead
b. Pizza was in no danger.

If we try something like that again, then:

a. Pizza is not protected, so at the last minute someone else will break the tie.

or

b. Pizza is protected, and the other target is an important mafioso. Someone breaks the tie, and there is no lynch.

There are many ways in which this could go wrong. JUST LYNCH MADES, GUYS. Seriously, don't waste any more effort on Pizza.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Night has ended, no more orders will be accepted.

Please allow time for processing. :sweatdrop:

[Montmorency]

GH, why was your post deleted just now? :stare:

[GeneralHankerchief]

I just saw I had made a double.

[Askthepizzaguy]

A fine plan. There's only one problem....

Let me know if you and khaan need any help running the game GH. I've got a feeling you'll think 3 people might confuse matters rather than speed it up, but the offers there if you need it.

"And one morning all that was burning,
one morning the bonfires
leapt out of the earth
devouring human beings --
and from then on fire,
gunpowder from then on,
and from then on blood.
Bandits with planes and Moors,
bandits with finger-rings and duchesses,
bandits with black friars spattering blessings
came through the sky to kill children
and the blood of children ran through the streets
without fuss, like children's blood."

Eighth Night -- The Streets of Fatlington

fubbleskag never saw the end coming. He was walking down a side street, paranoid enough - you never survived long in Fatlington if you weren't, that was a rule - but he never expected the attack to come from THIS angle. Mafiosi, scum of the earth that they were, were at least supposed to have standards. That's what set them apart from the small-time gangsters, as it were. They had a code, things they would never stoop to do. Apparently ruining one's suit in the name of a kill was not one of these things.

As fubbleskag walked down the side street, a man watching from a nearby window signaled his partner by dropping a small rock onto the lid of a trashcan located directly below him. The can's lid lifted by a few inches, held in place by a head. The figure inside the trashcan paused, sighted his target, and then silently drew his silenced gun, firing it thrice. fubbleskag never saw it coming.

Upon examining his target, the attacker placed two Franklin silver half-dollars over fubbleskag's eyes, muttering that he would rather have saved the coins and taken his ruined suit to the cleaners. He then tipped his hat - the "all clear" signal to his partner at the window - and vacated the scene.


sturmhauke's attackers exhibited no such subtlety. They found their target drinking from one of the town's seedier bars - sturmhauke decided to stop frequenting the Hotel Abbatoir and Club 30 after so many incidents had happened there - and immediately zoned in, drawing their guns and preparing to open fire.

sturmhauke was taken by surprise, as were many patrons of the bar, but one such person was not. Seeing the entire thing as it was happening, he quickly stood up, splashed his drink in one of the attacker's faces, and threw his now-empty glass as hard as he could at the other. It was a hit, and Attacker Number Two went down, howling in pain. He was bleeding in a couple of different parts of his face.

Upon recovering, Attacker Number One saw his partner's predicament, and had a choice to make: finish the assignment, or tend to his partner. Another moan from Attacker Number Two made the decision for him. Cursing, Attacker Number One picked his partner up and left the bar, leaving a very befuddled sturmhauke to buy his savior a drink. Nobody noticed the picture of Alaska with the words "Seward's Folly" scrawled inside the outline the attackers had left behind in their hasty retreat.


Scienter was at her favorite wine bar, sipping on her usual vintage, trying to get to that preferred, happy place where she was liquored up enough to forget the fact that she was very likely to die soon, but still sober enough to be observant of her surroundings and enjoy the taste of her wine. The patrons seemed like regulars, she had recognized all of them there before - save by one shadowy figure lurking in the corner. Smoking a cigarette, tossing a 1951 half-dollar in the air, and not even pretending to drink his wine. Scienter knew a Philistine when she saw one. It was time to hightail it out of there.

She made her way to the bar's exit, walking very quickly, when soon she realized the trap. Somebody was of course waiting for her out front, ready to gun her down. It was a textbook trap play, but Scienter had no other choice but to go out. The man in the corner was now pursuing her, his "disguise" no longer needed.

Sighing, Scienter opened the door, fully ready to face death... and saw nothing. Shrieking with more shock than joy, she ran as fast as she could, out of sight. She found herself very much more sober now than she had been one minute ago.


Riedquat found himself in a similar circumstance. He had stumbled upon Fatlington's only all-night fashion boutique, as he was shopping for new stylish winter clothes to make an impression at the Committee meetings. The selections there were quite good if not a bit light - not much you could do with black and grey trenchcoats and hats. Nevertheless, Riedquat found a few items he liked, and went to the fitting rooms to try them on.

Upon entering, he noticed that the fitting rooms, which had several separate changing areas, had three of them occupied. Immediately suspicious, he braced himself against the wall next to one of the occupied the doors and pushed it open, immediately scurrying for cover into one of the empty rooms. Sure enough, a burst of machine-gun fire erupted from the door he had opened, followed by some movement and murmured conversation.

"You get him?" came a voice.

"Nah," said a closer one, "might just have been a breeze. Guess I've got an itchy trigger finger today."

"Well, don't let the whole store know," came a third. "Come on, let's set back up and wait for him to come in."

Petrified, Riedquat spent the rest of the night in his changing area, not making a sound until he heard the other three leave.


Scienter had finally stopped running, pausing to catch her breath. Blind adrenaline had overtaken her until now, and in truth she had no idea where she was right now. It looked like an alley, but Fatlington had too many of those anyway and this one was completely unmarked. Prime killing grounds, in other words.

Already having survived one brush with death this night, Scienter decided to take no chances and hightailed it out of the alley, doubling over so as not to further aggravate the stitch in her sides. A hail of gunfire met her as soon as she emerged from the alley, but it missed high - the stitch had saved her life. Cursing, her attacker reloaded and prepared to fire again - where was his partner?! - but Scienter had decided it was time to improvise, diving into a nearby parked car and hotwiring it to get engine access.

As her attacker heard the engine roar and watched the car drive out of sight, he swore softly to himself. There was supposed to be a follow-up. Would he ever be able to use his King of Hearts?


Khazaar was also the beneficiary of a lack of coordination this night - a common theme, it seemed.

He decided to spend his evening on the boardwalk, an activity that a diminishing few Fatlings took part in these days thanks to the change in the weather. However, there was one other person besides him that still was out, defying the elements and enjoying arguably the best part about living on the Jersey Shore.

Luckily for Khazaar, it was a clear night out, and the moonlight reflected off of two things on the other guy's person. One looked like a coin, right about the size of a new half-dollar. The other was unmistakably a gun. Glancing around, Khazaar looked behind him and saw no one. The other person was two far away. He ran off, the would-be attacker not even bothering to give chase, instead softly cursing.


Even when there seemed to be a large group of people in on the attack, it was still not enough, as robbiecon was to thankfully learn.

He was walking down from the street when gunfire seemed to erupt from every quadrant: above him, directly in front of him, and to both sides. Robbie was sure he was a dead man. All possible lines of escape seemed to be cut off, and there were four people closing in on him. But then survival instincts took over, and he saw something that might provide salvation: a manhole cover.

Rushing forward, ignoring the fresh outburst of gunfire, he threw the cover off and dove down into the hole, leaving the attacker who had been directly in front of him to swear and throw his gun down in fury. "Who was supposed to get him from below??!?!"

Nobody quite had an answer to that.


Monk had decided to take a very long and very gas-wasting drive around Fatlington. Figuring that it was more difficult to be killed while moving, Monk had trusted in the safety of his car. Big mistake.

It was dark out, and this one section of road was not very-well lit. Monk, as driving, did not see the row of spikes laid out on the road specifically for him and his car - and, of course, the 1951 Franklin silver half-dollar that accompanied the spikes, but this would not do any damage - until both sets of tires had rolled over them, completely blowing them out. Monk's first thought was something along the lines of "of all the rotten luck" - then he saw a car speeding towards him in the opposite direction, and his thinking changed. He was a sitting duck.

Thinking quickly, probably before his stupid brain took over and told him how ridiculous of an idea this way, Monk got out of his car and stood right in the other car's path. The driver of the car was not able to resist this and revved up the speed, telling his partner not to fire, that it was more fun this way. Monk leaped, but still took a direct hit and his body tumbled over the other car's hood, broken in more than a few places. The other car, meanwhile, hit the spikes and started swerving into a building.

Monk, unable to move in pain, noted with a pleasure that the ambulance sirens were coming from the direction nearest him. He would get to Mercy first.


In a nearby alley, Camikaze had just entered, coming from another bar. He found facing him a man dressed in a trenchcoat, smoking. His face was shrouded in darkness. Camikaze didn't like this. Immediately trying to get back into the bar, he found the door was one-way only. Uh-oh.

"Hello, Camikaze. It's been quite a while, hasn't it? Since that time in Baltimore, actually."

He turned around and saw that a second figure had joined the first, speaking one. Although not wearing a trenchcoat, this one was taller and more well-built. His face was also shrouded in darkness. This was looking worse and worse. The first one saw the expression on Camikaze's face and smirked.

"Ah, you remember my old friend, don't you? I know he remembers you. You know why we're here, right?" Camikaze, unsure of how to answer, at first played dumb, but then decided that wasn't the best idea. Overall his impression conveyed intense anxiety, but not much else. The first one laughed. "Good, because you now we couldn't forget."

He whipped out a gun and fired several shots at Camikaze, but they had all hit armor. This was Fatlington, after all. Camikaze, losing wind, staggered a few steps back, but he was otherwise unhurt. Meanwhile the alley door had opened again, a man poking his head out and looked ready for trouble. "Everything all right?" he said in a threatening voice, but then he noticed both attackers, one of them with guns drawn, the other one taking large strides to set up behind Camikaze Without a word he stuck his head back into the bar, slamming the alley door. Camikaze was too stunned to try to follow.

Meanwhile, the first one held his gun steady, aiming for Camikaze's head. Just as he was about to fire, though, a sharp blade appeared through Camikaze's neck - Camikaze had been stabbed clean through from the back by the second one.

"Ah, good timing as ever, my friend." The second one looked at Camikaze's corpse questioningly. "No, just leave it, though that's better than he deserved. Now, let me see..." At this, the first one took out a list and crossed out the first of a long group of names. They walked off, this time both of them silent, their faces eternally hidden in darkness even as they passed in and out of shadow.


guiri noticed the chill in the air with disdain. Say what you want about Fatlington in the summer, but these November nighttime winds made for a whole different breed of town right now.

"It could be a lot worse," one figure said suddenly, having appeared seemingly out of nowhere next to guiri. "You could be in Alaska."

"Yeah," said another one, "Seward's Folly ain't no picnic in November, that's for sure. 'Specially up north, 'round Barrow - that's where Will Rogers died, you know."

"Poor man," the first one said, and without further ado they opened fire on guiri a few times before leaving the scene. guiri, however, was not quite dead, lying on the ground and watching the blood slowly spill out from his wounds. None of his major organs had been hit, and had it been warmer out - say, Fatlington in the summertime - he probably would have died from blood loss. However, the cooler temperatures of a windy November night managed to slow down his bloodflow long enough for the ambulance to take him to Mercy and give him an emergency transfer. He would be spending some time there.


Sometime later, a third figure met up with guiri's attackers. "Did you kill him?" he asked.

"Yeah, we got him. Gave him the whole 'Seward's Folly' routine, even managed to throw in a reference to Will Rogers and Barrow. He's a dead duck."

"Works for me," the lone man said. "Partner never showed up. Guess I've got the night off." All three parted ways amicably.


Memnon was in big trouble. Unlike a good amount of his Committee peers, he was the victim of a coordinated attack and experiencing its power firsthand. He had been ambushed just as he was about to open his house's front door, the gunfire coming from the rhododendrons he meticulously kept, and now found himself fleeing for his life.

Looking for cover, Memnon found nothing, and cursed. Why oh why had he kept such a wonderfully-manicured lawn, insisting that no trees grow to spoil the symmetry of things? It turned out that, after all of this, gardening would be a fatal hobby after all. And his wife had discouraged him from rock climbing, too. Oh, the irony of it all.

His thoughts meandering, Memnon spent his last moments like this until a bullet tore through his brain. Afterwards, two figures walked up to him, obliged with the customary 1951 half-dollars over his eyes, and then one of them made the comment.

"Well, at least he'll make for good fertilizer."


robbiecon thought he was safe in Fatlington's sewers. Dirty, perhaps, smelly, oh God yes, but safe too, and that's what mattered. He thought wrong.

He continued inching along, trying not to go too far into the muck, when he heard the voice. "Hi."

"You have GOT to be kidding m-" robbie tried to say, but then was cut off by a hail of gunfire. This time there would be no escaping. He dropped to the ground, his blood slowly adding to the refuse.

Another figure stepped out of the shadows, regarding his partner oddly. "And I thought you were going to start monologuing, too."

"Nah," said the first, "thought better of it when I realized how bad it smelled down here. C'mon, let's take his toe and get out of there." And they did.


Though robbiecon was in a very bad situation by the end of his night, Frozen in Ice's predicament was even worse. Yes, the smell was better, but not by much, and he was tied up in a chair with no clue as to the purpose. And then he saw his tormentor, and his weapon, and screamed.

"Oh hush," said the man, "I haven't even started yet. You know, when this knife" - he produced a blade that was oddly colored red, and this was BEFORE the blood - "starts entering you bit by bit, you'll probably feel ashamed of yourself for having reacted so spectacularly to the preliminaries. Save some for the actual performance!" This piece of advice went unheeded as Frozen merely continued screaming.

"Wow, way to spoil the act," the knife-wielder went on, regarding Frozen with something that resembled disappointment. "It's not even 'Death by a Thousand Cuts', you know, that bit is mostly apocryphal. They usually died after about 12 or 13 cuts." Frozen continued screaming at the top of his lungs.

"Oh for heaven's sake," the attacker went, fed up with the noise, "Fine. I'll get it over with." And he did, plunging his red blade into Frozen's neck.


Andres was a classy guy. He enjoyed the classy life, and this included classy drinks at Fatlington's classiest establishment: The Hotel Abbatoir. Frequented by Committee members for over a decade now, this town landmark still managed to wrangle free of a "cursed" reputation despite the number of murders that had occurred here during the mafia incursions. In comparison, Club 30 was far more warily looked-upon despite coming onto the scene much later and having far fewer deaths take place there.

The Abbatoir probably survived because of its classy reputation, and because most of its clientele were people like Andres: men of good taste who could easily identify interlopers. And right now he was seeing two of them at a table nearby. Andres took another sip of his drink. It was probable that he was their target. He needed to think this through. He would have to escape while still maintaining an air of dignity, after all, it's what set him apart f-

*BANG!*

What Andres failed to take into account was the fact that, his attackers *not* being classy, they had no such reservations about causing a scene. Andres slumped onto the floor, dead before he could pass judgment about the calling card his killers left at the scene: a King of Hearts.


Askthepizzaguy was walking down one of Fatlington's main thoroughfares, supremely confident. He had shed his pizza delivery vehicle, he had twice defied the will of the Committee of Vigilance and lived to tell the tale thanks to some timely legal protection, and he was preparing to move into the Director's office the next day after he inevitably won his election. Life was looking good for him.

He heard a noise behind him, nothing unusual, but there was something different about this one. Instead of the roar of an engine, it sounded more like... *clop clop clop*? Puzzled, before he could goggle at the scene, some instinct took over and he ducked, causing his attacker wielding whatever melee weapon he had used to miss.

Pizza looked back up, and saw a very odd sight: it was a mounted figure, riding away, not even bothering to turn around for another shot, wielding what looked like a pair of bolas.

>>>He used something designed to capture animals by the legs to try to kill me? Okay then...<<<

Completely puzzled, ATPG decided to take this as a good omen and kept walking.


Ibn-Khaldun really wanted to see a show. He was tired of drinking, and needed something to take his minds off the town's predicament. But alas, it was Fatlington in November. No show was going to play in a seasonal town that was out-of-season... and any that did were not worth seeing. So he was back at the bar, slowly drinking his night and life away.

But finally, some drama! The establishment's main window shattered as a man came crashing through it - swinging, oddly enough, on a rope! - and this was immediately followed by the man's screaming in pain. He got up to dust the numerous shards of glass off his already-rumpled suit, and then regard Ibn-Khaldun for a moment.

"Christ! So swinging through a window hurts! Who knew?"

Whether this line was an attempt to completely distract Ibn-Khaldun from everything else going on or was just honest conversation (it was a 50/50 proposition with a man who had just swung through a glass window), it served its purpose, as Ibn-Khaldun was summarily gunned down from two other barroom patrons who had been there the entire time.

The man who had swung in tipped his slightly-bloodstained cap in a gesture of appreciation, and together the three of them removed Ibn-Khaldun's toe and walked out, this time through the front door.

Fatlington, New Jersey

Despite the numerous failed murrder attempts that went on, Commissioner Fermanagh still looked grim - and a little tipsy - as he finished up the day's report to the Committee. "And now, the post-mortem results," he said. Everyone leaned in a little closer.

"As for your lynch, it was a middling choice. Montmorency had done some minor criminal wetwork and was almost certainly not an upstanding figure, but he was not reported to have done any work with the families before his death. At the very least this deprives them of another potential recruit." He eyed several members of the Committee with suspicion.

"As for the kills, it seems as if Montmorency had some company. J.D., Nictel, and Raskolnikov were all of similar ilk, and ByzantineKnight seemed to be nothing more than an innocent townie who was caught up in all of this. It's almost as if the families were unifying first." Fermanagh pondered glowering, then decided it was best if he just took another drink.

Captain Blackadder then took the podium and began the day's voting, reminding everybody that another Director selection was on the agenda as well.

[Montmorency]

Everyone, select ATPG. If you don't, town may just lose this game.

All Pizza wants to do is retire in the directorship. He has stated this several times. And if he doesn't get the directorship, he'll get really mad.

Townies - Pizza knows who you are. He knows some of the best of you. He can direct the Mafia against you. If he stops doubling up on kills, then more victims will die; not everyone can make a saving throw.

It is true that Pizza could just refuse to lynch Mafia, but I don't think he will do that. It's possible that he might even reward the appeasers.

Remember: You need to take out Mades. Kill the body and the head becomes irrelevant.

Organize your own vigs. Do not give yourselves up to Pizza. Town should have formed its own trusted mini-networks. If they coalesce, then the vig-train will get back on track.

GET IT?

[Frozen In Ice]

Geesh that was quite unnecesary, Mr. Rogue. Had you gotten to know me better you have realized this course of action was a grave mistake. I could have done great things ya know.

[sturmhauke]

Remember: You need to take out Mades. Kill the body and the head becomes irrelevant.

GET IT?

Agreed. Look people, I know a lot of you don't trust me, but we need to get our :daisy: together or we're :daisy:. We may still be able to win, but we need to get everyone organized NOW. I don't have enough people to do much, and looking at the writeups neither do any other little townie groups out there. We may still outnumber the mafia, but they are way better organized thanks to ATPG and that WILL give them the win if we don't band together. Pick someone else as your leader if you must, but pick someone or we'll just be picked off one by one.

[Montmorency]

I'll say it again: select ATPG. He wants to retire, right? So let him retire! If he's retired, he's not organizing the Mafia anyway, right?

[thefluffyone93]

I reject the gravity of the situation!

Select: Thefluffyone93
Vote: Peasant Phil

I just need some justification for that vote....

[Montmorency]

How are you still alive? And to which family do you belong? :stare:

[sturmhauke]

I don't believe that ATPG would really stop running the show, but I suppose it would keep him from personally doing anything. The more important thing is that now 1/3rd of the players have been killed one way or another, and only a handful of them confirmed as anti-town. This is due primarily to mafia organization and town disorganization.

I remember when all the games began
Remember every little lie and every last goodbye
Promises you broke, words you choked on
and I never walked away,
it's still a mystery to me
Well I'm so empty
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me
Well you're so unclean
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me

The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, deceiving, the beatings; it's over

Paint the mirrors black to forget you
I still picture your face and the way you used to taste
Roses in a glass, dead and wilted
To you this all was nothing
Everything to you is nothing
Well you're so filthy
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me
Well I'm so ugly
You're better off without me and I'm better off alone

The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings, disaster, it's over

As wicked as you are, you're beautiful to me
You're the darkest burning star, you're my perfect disease

The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing my apart
The hatred, the beatings; it's over
Disaster
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing my apart
The hatred, the beatings; it's over
Disaster

It's over now...

"Citizens of Fatlington, on this day we mark a transition.

For two hundred years, Fatlington stood as the crowning achievement of civilized Americans. But there were those who would set us against one another, and we took up arms to defend our way of life. In so doing, we never suspected that the greatest threat came from within. They had hoped to grind Fatlington into ruin. But the hatred in their hearts could not be hidden forever. At last, there came a day when our enemies showed their true natures. The government hoped to unleash their destructive power against Fatlings by assassinating the head of La Resistance and usurping control of Fatlington. But the aims of would-be tyrants were valiantly opposed by those without elitist, dangerous government connections. Our loyal wiseguys and gangsters contained the insurrection within Fatlington and quelled uprisings on a hundred different streets. The war is over. The traitors will be eliminated. And the townie rebellion has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beginning.

The remaining townies will be hunted down and defeated!

Any collaborators will suffer the same fate. These have been trying times, but we have passed the test.

The attempts on my life have left me scarred and deformed. But, I assure you, my resolve has never been stronger!

In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, Fatlington will be reorganized into the first MAFIA EMPIRE!

A Family that will continue to be ruled by this august body and a sovereign ruler chosen for life. An Empire ruled by the majority, ruled by a new constitution! By bringing the entire city under the enlightened guidance of one individual, the corruption that plagued Fatlington in its later years will never take root. The Supreme Director will eliminate the bureaucracy that allowed the corrupt government to grow unchecked. A strong and growing mob of gangsters will ensure the rule of the majority.

Under the New Order, our most cherished beliefs will be safeguarded. We will defend our ideals by force of arms. We will give no ground to our enemies and will stand together against attacks from within or without. Let the enemies of the Family take heed: those who challenge Cosa Nostra will be crushed. The remaining citizens must do their part. Join our Family now. Become the eyes of the Family by reporting suspected insurrectionists. Travel to the corners of the city to spread the principles of the New Order to the unenlightened. The New Order of peace has triumphed over the shadowy secrecy of shameful government bureaucrats. The direction of our course is clear. I will lead the Empire to glories beyond imagining. We have been tested, but we have emerged stronger. We move forward as one people: the Aligned citizens of the first Mafia Empire. We will prevail. Ten thousand days of peace begins today!"




Select Askthepizzaguy for Supreme Director of Fatlington

For a safe.... and secure.... society!



The time has come to clean the filth from the gutters of Fatlington. March proudly, Made Gangsters, and remember.... we own this city now. No longer will we hide in the shadows. No longer will we disguise our true nature. Today we march on City Hall, and we string up the leader of this government. The police cannot stop us. The Feds cannot stop us. Nothing can oppose us!

The time of government monopoly on the use of force has come to an end. Now, the only legitimate use of force will be sanctioned by the Dons of the families of Fatlington. All who oppose these men are traitors. Let the glorious news be spread: the "townie" Director will at last be dead. Captain Blackadder will be forced to die by our own hands. I've ordered the highways and bridges and ports closed, they will not escape this city alive.

Plus you have to consider dons and lucas. That puts it at more like 50%. I remember this from capo II--the family that strikes first at the other families, and decisively, will win. It's a prisoners dilemma for them, if they play nice and try and take out the townies they can get backstabbed, if they don't they can tear each other up and the town can win.

I find it very hard to believe that experienced mafia players are so deliberately gullible :laugh4: Which family are you working for CR? :wink:

Vote: ATPG
Select: sturmhauke

Even now I am reminded of Daggers in the Night, where a one off lynch protect used on Kage convinced everyone he was the unlynchable godfather. That was a smaller sized large game, what's stopping Seamus from making it 2 lynch protections in a 100+ player game? It just means that he took a gamble that 2 stoppages were enough to convince the town that pizza was invulnerable.

Seriously guys, do you honestly think that in a game like Capo, Seamus would imbalance it this bad? If a mafia role could stop the lynches whenever he liked, how many such characters would have to exist to balance the families? You telling me that Seamus deliberately gave one family the chance to rise above all else, if they (started with the mafia lawyer on their side/convinced the mafia lawyer to join them). What utter nonsense. The supposed mafia lawyer would go against the very spirit of the game, Capo di Tutti Capi, where every man can potentially rise to victory as the Capo.

Listen to yourselves, if protections were organized on this fellow, one mafia family is essentially invulnerable for the entire game until the protection squad is killed off.

That's hardly equal opportunity for all. I refuse to believe this pig swill/hogwash unbelievable on so many levels.

Viva la resistance! Slay the pizza man! Pizza for everyone!

Really you know, its like politics. Discredit your opponent with unsubstantiated remarks (Sigurd) and follow it up by superb acting that you are the only solution to all their problems (ATPG). Classic :laugh4: :laugh4:

I just need to ask one question. Why does pizza want the director position for immunity against night kills if he has so much influence to bring to bear to organize protections on himself, and to prevent lynchings by day? Face it, he isn't invulnerable and knows that if the people think they can't lynch him, they will try killing him (an unfortunate side result of bluffing that he is invulnerable to lynchings forever).

You couldn't kill me at night and now you want to go the same path as yesterday? :no:

I'm not the lawyer, if I were I would be suing you and all the people misspelling my name :stare:

Lets put this in the open, Captain B. accused me of being the lawyer because someone he trust told him Atpg protected me one night... if I got protected I never knew, how in hell I'm supposed to defend against a supposed protection I don't know if existed? The only people who could know are Atpg's minions...

Now, yesterday I got attacked... it doesn't seems like I got any protection does it? It was something else ;)

By the way, you can see what I was doing last night, what were you doing? :inquisitive:

I agree with DiY, why Atpg wants the Director position if he is immune to lynches? And what kind of townies are you? Selling your souls to such despicable being? :no:

"Oh yes let's give in to the terrorists demands, they say they will quit terrorizing people if we give them a trillion dollars, because terrorism is just too boring."

So he'll retire because his role is non-existent? He'll retire because all of these proceedings are just beneath him? His win condition isn't retiring and doing nothing my friend, you've bought a pack of lies just as easily as buying a pack of cigarettes.

I was "exposed" as a wiseguy? But I admitted to being a wiseguy on the day of my lynch. *wak wak wak*

Eh, I withdrew my endorsement once I saw that Pizza intended to lead the Mafia from the Director's seat. I had been given to understand that his intentions were rather different. :shrug:

As for the Pizza lynch:

a. Do you really want to try this AGAIN?
b. PIZZA IS NOT A MADE ANYWAY

Someone mentioned after yesterday's lynch that each family might have a one-shot Lawyer ability. Since Pizza has the loyalty of 3 families, he could survive today's lynch, though not a 4th time. But so what? Why waste a full 3 lynches against one man?!

Pizza is not killing. He is just organizing. Now that the families are this strong, they don't need him anymore! They're not recruiting, they're just killing townies! His death would be a waste of 4 lynches. It is a foolish thing.

c. You don't have the numbers to lynch Pizza.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

So the mafia are confessing because they believe they have the majority.

[edse]

Okey, I'm even willing to cooperate with Brazini and Tataglia. You are as much threatened by the big families as the town.

And WHO is willing to run for the directors post? I can't personally, otherwise I would.

[SisterCoyote]

select: sturmhauke

Could someone summarize the reasons for voting Mades and Capt Blackadder for me?

[God Emperor]

DiY might be right though, the whole lawyer thing might be bullox, and if so then his lynch is worth another try.

and
I don't see why not DE :dizzy2:. If you need time to kill, you should get around answering my pm ! :stare: :laugh4:

[Montmorency]

Hankadder is not a threat. Neither is Riedquat. The former is wanted dead by the Mafia Empire. The latter was attacked by the Mafia Empire.

Townie or Mafia: either way, these two oppose Pizza and his ilk. They should be cultivated.

Vote Mades if you are town and don't want the Mafia to win.

Vote Pizza if you are tricksy Mafia scum or just want to get at Pizza for his arrogance, no matter what the cost may be.

:stare:

[Death is yonder]

So the mafia are confessing because they believe they have the majority.

Pretty much. Or at least they want people to believe that resistance is futile and everyone should just join the mafia, which is obviously false.


Pizza is not killing. He is just organizing. Now that the families are this strong, they don't need him anymore!

While not killing, his organizing tremendously helps the mafia, without whom they would not have a contact whom they think they trust. The mafia don't trust each other enough to be in direct contact, they are after all, inherently against each other. Pizza provides a medium and a solution to this problem.

With all the information he has, each family wants him to be fully theirs, yet he is not willing to commit for now till the chips are laid and he chooses which family to join, as a wise guy. Each family leaves him alive, and will continue to do so, they still need him if the mafia are going to have a chance at unifying at least temporarily to whack the town, if not they will eventually break into their respective factions, as the game was meant to be. Moreover, each faction holds out that fate will treat them kindly and pizza will eventually join their family.


Someone mentioned after yesterday's lynch that each family might have a one-shot Lawyer ability. Since Pizza has the loyalty of 3 families, he could survive today's lynch, though not a 4th time. But so what? Why waste a full 3 lynches against one man?!

Capo III had 17 voting phases (18 day phases if you count the finale) and 76 players.

So now Capo IV has 117 players, a 40 player increase. Even if there were 30 day phases, I find it incredibly hard to believe that Seamus would end up rendering (assuming 5 families, which was the Capo III format, if there are more than 5, then the data is only more damning) 1/6 of all the lynches worthless. Far easier it is to make it either:

a) Red text
b) Limited Uses

Why even bother to lynch ATPG? Because he has all the information, and information my friend, is power. Even if we didn't lynch ATPG, give him the directorship? You've got to be kidding me. Giving the directorship to a man who has all but declared his mafia intentions.

This is our man who said, "oh I'll abstain from politics this game, I'm saying no more after my display in the previous game", and ended up running for presidency, now saying:

"yup I'll retire after you make me emperor of the world, please ignore the fact that I have a role and I love playing this exciting game which is only just heating up, and lastly that you've made me emperor. What is a man to do with all this power? Surely not sit and dawdle around?"


c. You don't have the numbers to lynch Pizza.

Like I said. Prove it. There are 44 dead people, leaving 73 people alive. If you are telling me that there are some 40 mafia and associates, even after the death of 1 don, 1 luca, probably some mades, and wise guys who were inclined towards mafia, then I want to see it.

In Netherworld III everyone asked the cultists to prove they had a majority, by forcing the vote. Guess what, they did with a simply majority. Mafia rule the vote? I want to see 40 people selecting pizza and the same number of people voting Captain Blackadder showing that they follow his plans down to the letter.

If mafia don't do it then this Fatling laughs in their faces and calls their bluff. Kill me, go on. My bulletproof fedora stands ready to intercept shots to my body :clown:


Okey, I'm even willing to cooperate with Brazini and Tataglia. You are as much threatened by the big families as the town.

:no:

[Montmorency]

Death is Yonder, look: Pizza has admitted that the Corleones call their own lynches by now. Surely the other three can't be far behind. And why are you so sure that this Mafia Lawyer is a two-time thing? Last time, you said that it must be a one-shot!

O lol. If you'll check out my posts immediately after the writeup (you can't miss them), then you will realize that the Mafia - Pizza's Mafia -

have 29 effectives, not counting Dons, maybe not counting Lucas.
Checkmate. :worried2:

[Death is yonder]

Vote pizza if you want to cripple the conduit that allows the mafia alliance to function.

Vote Capt. Blackadder if you want to be a pawn.


Hankadder is not a threat

GH clearly had an ulterior motive when he revealed pizza. I wouldn't say let Capt Blackadder off the hook but he isn't the priority.

[landlubber]

have 29 effectives, not counting Dons, maybe not counting Lucas.
Checkmate. :worried2:
Guess what? You have a lot of your information wrong. I'd tell you more, but, then again, you guys lynched me. So maybe not.

[Montmorency]

DiY, really - what do you think will happen if Pizza is removed? The Mafia won't just lie down and stop killing. And don't think they don't have an idea of each others' identities. There will not be many friendly fire incidents.

A cornered Pizza would just info-dump on them. And town would bleed.

[Death is yonder]

Last time, you said that it must be a one-shot!

Somebody's got to call his bluff. A one shot was the easiest explanation, two shots are still within the realm of possibility in a game of 117.

Pizza's figures are obviously inflated. One doesn't win the minds of the people by telling them they have a chance. He wants to convince people to switch mafia by exaggerating figures to suggest that they don't have a chance.


Checkmate.

With 70+ players alive, the town should give up? Hardly. One would be surprised what would happen by the time the players are down to 20 towards the end game.

Really, if the mafia control the votes I just want to see 40 selections of pizza to be our everlasting emperor and 40 votes denouncing Capt. Blackadder to be against the glorious revolution. First rule of show trials, make sure you actually the power to back it up.


And why are you so sure [in general]

Call it a gut feeling really, if you want my reasoning then I've already talked about why I believe so in my posts. No broken recorders for you Monty :tongue:


but, then again, you guys lynched me. So maybe not.

Well, in the end you are a mafioso...

Maybe you can check with GH/'khaan, Tincow's revealing of information and the revelation that it wasn't against the rules brings up some interesting possibilities.

And there we go folks, a denial of pizza's inflated figures by our very own mafia informant.

[Montmorency]

Guess what? You have a lot of your information wrong. I'd tell you more, but, then again, you guys lynched me. So maybe not.

Huh? There were 25 Mafia attackers in the writeup. 4 didn't show up. It's simple arithmetic. And I never advocated your lynch. :yes:

Hmm...

Then 3 shots would be "still sorta possible"? And 4? And 5?

The Mafia has at least 14 attacks per night. And there's a rogue detective of unknown affiliation out there. In 2 nights there will likely be no more than 50 players. :shame:

And remember: these are not Pizza's figures. They are my figures, and you can check them yourselves; go take a look at the writeup, if you have the time.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Regardless of whether the mafia have the numbers, we need to force their hand by unifying around our own select and lynch choice. That cuts down on the number of mafia who can voice their opposition in the thread or lurk until the round is over. Most likely the expendable ones are the ones who have selected pizza already.

[Death is yonder]

DiY, really - what do you think will happen if Pizza is removed? The Mafia won't just lie down and stop killing. And don't think they don't have an idea of each others' identities. There will not be many friendly fire incidents.

A cornered Pizza would just info-dump on them. And town would bleed.

The mafia have been talking to each other through pizza, if not they would have to reveal at least one of their identities to set up an anonymous QT or something. With an influx of some spies into their midst, and informants like landlubber, I hardly think they will reveal their identities. Saying "Oh I dont think you should kill so and so" is basically just saying that he's a mafia.

In the end the families are role-wise in conflict with one another, this alliance is merely ephemeral and short lasting.

I strongly oppose the notion that ATPG will just reveal every bit of information he has. I will not elaborate more.


25 Mafia attackers in the writeup.

Many were vigs really. Don't be fooled by numbers. Its a dangerous assumption. If not I can likewise say that before the recent happenings there were 20 doctors in town :wink: Of course that's nonsense and you'll argue that its not the same but you get the idea.


Then 3 shots would be "still sorta possible"? And 4? And 5?

117 players, one would be surprised. I placed a limit on two, because three is verging into the realm of doubtfulness, because of the psychological impact it would have on the people. Imagine, if people thought that ATPG was not going to be get lynched, and he became the director, immune to night kills. Why, he'd have pulled off his grand psychological coup, convincing people that he was invulnerable. Something's got to give somewhere.

Anyway, Sasaki makes sense, regardless of the situation, the mafia will either show their hand, or they won't. Its as simple as that. Not showing their hand merely reveals their bluff for what it was. Revealing their hand is only going to get them killed off.

[Montmorency]

Here are your choices, as I see them:

Blackadder
Sturmhauke
Sasaki

I know which you prefer. But you are needed in the streets, so elevate sturmhauke.

Vote Sturmhauke

[Montmorency]

Any of them are a good lynch, god emperor less so perhaps. I will Vote:Cahoma for this:

Cocky comment and I remember him being attacked and having some sort of protection against kills, which means we can't vig him easily.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Ok, so there are only 9 people who have revealed themselves so far.

Think about this, other mafia families--if NO more mafia reveal themselves, the town will focus all of it's energy over the next several days eliminating these nine. If none of your family have confessed so far (or perhaps only one) that gives you a huge advantage, much more than having pizza as director would give you.

I suggest that the town agree collectively to vig the VERY NEXT mafioso who selects pizza, after this post. So they know that if they do, they die.

Enemy of my enemy is my friend? No?

Edse, Sasaki is going for sturmhauke.

[Death is yonder]

I don't really see why you're advocating lying down and dying Monty. To the mafia in Capo III's credit, even when faced with a gigantic townie network they kept fighting.

Lets face it Monty. You aren't a quitter, and wiseguys, if my role pm in Capo III still applies somewhat, win with the town unless they become mades. You have an ulterior motive, whether it be lulz or whatever. You might like to claim mafia when you're not, but I'd like to believe that you did it for the lulz :wink:


lets not forget that he is the same character we didn't trust when played by GH, the player has changed, not the role.

I would agree with you to an extent, maybe if ATPG wasn't the alternative candidate who would be saved if Capt. BA was lynched.

I believe I'm well aware of it, regardless of how exaggerated it has been.

A double lynch would be great but Blackadder's still director, so lynching pizza is the best course of action. They both need to go, but if you're saying blackadder needs to go first, I respectfully disagree.

As for the effects of pizza's death, well, only one way to find out. Maybe the Empire will be destabilized :clown:

[edse]

Just for future reference, don't edit selection/vote posts, make a new one to correct the error :bow: But the error was so huge, vote instead of select giving it a whole new meaning.

Do sturmhauke want to be director? What are the director role's positive and negative sides?

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I fear they might call that bluff, Sasaki.

I mean, it's not a bluff, since we can do it. Actually I'm sure we have enough vigs to say that we'll get the next three who select pizza.

And it's a really bad move in point of fact--any mafia family that sits this whole confession thing out will be in great position to win the game. The town will be working for them by going after the mafia who have revealed themselves and they will be free to pick off their mafia enemies and win the game.

[Montmorency]

Yep, that's pretty blatant. No doubt abou their allegiances.

[Montmorency]

Let's hope they agree.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

But the error was so huge, vote instead of select giving it a whole new meaning.

Do sturmhauke want to be director? What are the director role's positive and negative sides?

With a townie as director we can still potentially double lynch mafia. And the director is immune from nightkills, so he can serve as a focal point for the towns night efforts.

As the whole day phase has become a farce, I really don't care about who we lynch any more.

Ok, I have this vig group set up, but I REALLY want one more to make sure it doesn't fail due to someone accidentally or "accidentally" not sending in orders.

[Diana Abnoba]

Oh :daisy:, good point DIY. I know that the director can be lynched, he is only night kill immune, but if we have a tie he might be able to save himself. Didn't think of that :wall:. I wonder if he can if Pizza saves himself, then it won't really be a tie. :dizzy2: Oh and thanks for the tally Sasaki, thought that Pizza was ahead with all this talk on his lynch. I really wish we could do a tie today, but I don't think it will work. So for now Unvote: Captain Blackadder Vote: Pizza Just hope that this won't end up with him saving himself today, that would be such a waste of a round.

[landlubber]

Maybe you can check with GH/'khaan, Tincow's revealing of information and the revelation that it wasn't against the rules brings up some interesting possibilities.
Even if the possibility is open, I won't give any more information publicly. The truth can never truly die; everything will come to light eventually.

[Choxorn]

Plus you have to consider dons and lucas. That puts it at more like 50%. I remember this from capo II--the family that strikes first at the other families, and decisively, will win. It's a prisoners dilemma for them, if they play nice and try and take out the townies they can get backstabbed, if they don't they can tear each other up and the town can win.


I'm going to bed so nothing deep as far as who the best lynch is.

However powerful the mafia are collectively, they eventually have to kill each other. Anyone remember Lylat Wars?

In Netherworld III everyone asked the cultists to prove they had a majority, by forcing the vote. Guess what, they did with a simply majority. Mafia rule the vote? I want to see 40 people selecting pizza and the same number of people voting Captain Blackadder showing that they follow his plans down to the letter.

Sasaki, you brought a sword to an oar fight again. :clown:

Allowing me to predict who the town vig-kills is complete nonsense. Especially if you're targeting gangsters. I can have 3 mades protect those same people, even if I had no loyal doctors, and I have loyal doctors.

Especially if I'm director, now I'll have two more I can use.

Your suggestions to oppose me play directly into my hands. Are you doing it on purpose, or is this just a horrible mistake?

:laugh4: Pizza, why do you think the activity in the thread is so low even with the dramatic events of the day?

Most of the mafia will keep out of the thread rather than show themselves. Everyone who has selected you so far has a big fat target on your head, as will anyone else. The time will quickly come when some enterprising family realizes their best move is to strike first, I've seen it before it capo II. Then the selectors will cut down like wheat. Heck, anyone want to guess who landlubbers family will target tonight? They might even get townie wiseguy support to pad their numbers, that also happened in capo II I believe.

You are very welcome to waste three mades on protection duty, and equally welcome to take doctors away from protecting you and put them on mafia targets. Can't protect em all :beam:

[SisterCoyote]

BRB facepalming forever; for some reason I thought "Mades" was a person, not a made-mafia.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Anyway people, let's get votes piled on Cahoma and some more selections on Sturmhauke. We shouldn't take the risk on pizza having lawyer protection again.

With a lynch today and vigs tonight, and perhaps a double lynch tomorrow with a townie director to oversee it, we can get through the list of the confessed pretty quickly. It'll still be touch and go but the mafia fight that will soon break out will only help us.

[Askthepizzaguy]

:laugh4: Pizza, why do you think the activity in the thread is so low even with the dramatic events of the day?

most of the action takes place at night and the lynch has been so very ineffective, and the director selection has been GH, GH, GH, GH.

That's why.


Most of the mafia will keep out of the thread rather than show themselves.

Bah. If they're not directly affiliated with "the" townie network, then they're suspected of being mafia anyway.

They're not fooling anyone. Besides, it's a whole heck of a lot more fun to be a gangster than pretending to be a townie. Fo sho.


Everyone who has selected you so far has a big fat target on your head, as will anyone else.

Town couldn't hit the ground with a target painted on it in bright red paint.


The time will quickly come when some enterprising family realizes their best move is to strike first, I've seen it before it capo II. Then the selectors will cut down like wheat. Heck, anyone want to guess who landlubbers family will target tonight? They might even get townie wiseguy support to pad their numbers, that also happened in capo II I believe.

Your argument is absurd, and here's why.

Town shouldn't try to vote for the mafia, because the mafia might kill them.

It's the same argument flipped on its head. It makes no sense, especially since the town has been so ineffective at killing or protecting.

If the mafia can lynch the townies and get a director who can make double lynches on townies happen, then....

That's removing mafia from the lynch queue and putting the untouchable townies on the chopping block. And every single gangster wants that to happen.


You are very welcome to waste three mades on protection duty, and equally welcome to take doctors away from protecting you and put them on mafia targets. Can't protect em all :beam:

But I can protect some. And I've proven that throughout the game, some protection is infinitely superior than none.

You're acting as though if the mafia remain quiet, the townies will never suspect they are there. The town knows exactly who the mafia are, by simple deduction.

You're charismatic and experienced, my friend, but you're arguing a losing position. :bow:

[Askthepizzaguy]

One final thought before I run to work for my first ever closing the store by myself manager shift. :shocked:

The mafia were too busy recruiting and killing to even come up with pro-town alibis. Very few gangsters can explain what they've been doing for the past 8 nights. The real townies at least have some explanation.

That's why the mafia should endorse me as Director; you're already exposed because you have no cover story. You forgot to make one. I could have provided you one but only two people ever bothered to ask.

You'd have to say which groups you were in and they'd have to confirm it and you'd probably need to be visible in the writeups as well for it to be believable. And we already know which vig kills I endorsed, and those have mafia in them.

You have to be very creative to explain 8 nights without a detailed cover story that could have been provided. Some have, but it's really no longer necessary is it?

[Montmorency]

Mafia Wiseguys: This is your chance.

Maybe some of you already were double agents the whole time - you know what to do.

But the rest of you, those who have planned to turn for a while, those who have already killed townies:

| .... |
|_ __|

Hold on for one second. Are you sure that this is what you want? Is this really, really, what you want?

Think about this for a second. Just one second.

You hold the key here. You have the power to make the Mafia, and break the town (and vice versa).

You could stick with the Mafia. You could finish off the town. Glory over the fallen. Enjoy the festivities.

But then you will turn on each other, like jackals. You will kill and you will die, all for one man's greed: the Capo di Tutti Capi.

You yourselves will never become Capo. Rather, you will be struck down in the hard fighting between families. The vast majority of you.

Perhaps you comfort yourselves with the hope that your family will emerge triumphant, and that you will see your apotheosis as one of the fingers, or even hands, of the Lord of All Mafia.

Fools! Be it that you will be one of the few to emerge unscathed from Fatlington. Even so, you will never amount to anything. You will render faithful service unto your master for all your years - and you will receive his scraps under the table, like all good dogs.

You will never be upped. Forever will you remain a friend of his, rather than a friend of the family. A slave. He will rest upon your backs, and upon your bloody labor, but you will never see its fruits. Forever will you be consigned to servitude and ignominy, and always will you be watched by his other good men. Even one misstep, and all the years of your sweat shall mingle with the blood in the streets.

But if you defect - if you rejoin the Town - your profits shall be enormous. You will be hailed as heroes; monuments shall be erected in your names! You will have joy, and the honor and glory shall reside with you.

Come, wiseguys - look into your deeper souls, and tell me that you can stomach the degredation of Mafia servitude.

This is your chance to shine.

[Frozen In Ice]

I support all townie efforts to lynch ATPG hopefully once and for all today. Notice how support for ATPG has slowed to a trickle. Where is your massive support now?:clown:

Mafia, you as well no longer need ATPG. He is only slowing you down and is, and always has been your greatest liability.

[Montmorency]

Edit: Whoops. But it's still the time.

Sturmhauke stands against Pizza 8-10.

CB has 9 votes, Pizza 7.

CB will not allow himself to be lynched, Mafia.

Kill this coward who lords over you, and calls himself Master.

[GeneralHankerchief]

There are 6 hours left.

18, actually.

[Cahoma]

So tell me. Sasaki, Frozen In Ice, you two are pro-town right? There's no way you're on this list ATPG gave us of all the mafia-related people? What's your pro-town excuse? I take it you've been participating in lots of townie vig/protection groups?

@For the mafia: Hey, if any mafia family wins you atleast get a close victory. If you try to hide as a townie still and start the mob war a day too soon, then you just give the town a much higher chance of winning.
@For the townies: Sucks for you.:P

Life is a gamble. I've decided to gamble it all right now. If I lose, then it sucks but it wouldn't matter really. If I win, I'm awesome. If I had decided to wuzz out and hide behind the bigger guys, then I'd just not be in it for the fun, which is what it's all about.

[Language please - GH]

[GamezRule]

I just selected ATPG because I prefer to live.

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of your traitor corpse decomposing.
I fail to see how this qualifies as traitorous when I was never on your side to begin with.

Yeah whatever.

Yeah whatever.

You do realize that saying something like that will just ensure your death, right?

[sturmhauke]

Do sturmhauke want to be director?

Not really, no. But if that is the town's wish, then I will serve.


What are the director role's positive and negative sides?

The Director is immune from night kills but is also unable to do active night actions (attacks or protection) while in office.

[Montmorency]

Do not wagon Cahoma

Why not? Cahoma has been suspicious for a while, but just there he flat-out admitted to being Mafia.

And end up trying to get a triple lynch?

[Cahoma]

Let's lynch EVERYONE!

[edse]

Yep, everyone votes for the person following them in the list in the write up.

[Montmorency]

And end up trying to get a triple lynch?

How about a single-lynch on him?

CB doesn't factor into it, because he wouldn't be lynched even if 72 people voted for him.

[Cahoma]

I say we put in a couple of votes on the dead people too.

[GeneralHankerchief]

CB doesn't factor into it, because he wouldn't be lynched even if 72 people voted for him.

This is false, a Director cannot influence the lynch at all if there is not a tie vote. If Blackadder "wins" a plurality of votes, there's nothing he can do about it.

[Montmorency]

Yeah, vote me. Get all your Mafia buddies to vote me as well! :wiseguy:

Well, for starters, I am dead, and I can't say anything more than that until my alligence is revealed by a writeup. But ATPG should die no matter what role I have. Sometimes one must die for the good of many.

And Pizza, with all the support you say you have, why do you keep posting here? Who are you trying to convince? the doomed town? Or the so supportive mafia?

[Cahoma]

Vote for me.

Do not vote for me.

Hey, I'm running for director too btw.

Look out Pizza - Cahoma's taking over. While you gloated, Cahoma was slowly attracting the scum to his House. Now, he is ready to provoke a schism in your so-called Mafia Empire!

Oh yeah definitely. My victory conditions say that Pizza must be killed and I get a clear victory. If he lives it's a clear defeat. That's my only victory conditions.

I'm just too darn lazy to both unvote, vote for him, AND select myself as for directorship. Curse my lazy nature!

[thefluffyone93]

I'M A DON LYNCH /SELECT ME.

[Cahoma]

Nah, select me. I'm a don for 3 different families.

[Frozen In Ice]

When Pizza says "Jump!" you ask "How High?"

When Pizza says "Vote!" you ask "For Whom?"

When Pizza commands "Reveal yourselves to the public!" you respond "Quite gladly!"

Then, when everything is wrapping up, he shouts "Now die, for you are of no use to me!" You will frown, thinking to yourself that you might have made a mistake at some point in the past. But at that point, it will be too late, and the only thing you will be able to do is say "Yes Master."

If that is the tale of the life of a Mafioso, then it is a sad tale indeed.

It isn't this way yet however. Only a few mafia have done this so far. The mafia that don't want to end up like this should vote for Pizza.

Am I doing it right?

Seriously, let's not split the vote between Cahoma and ATPG, and get HankAdder lynched as a result. The vote needs to be focused on one of them.

Cahoma seems more likely to die if lynched than ATPG does, so Unvote, Vote: Cahoma

[AggonyKing]

Select: ATPG

[Montmorency]

Well, Sasaki? With the rest of town cowering in the gutters or AWOL, this will be a more than comfortable margin for Pizza.

[sturmhauke]

Hey, what's this that landed in my PM box?


It seems my kill failed again last night.

As such, I'm still a wiseguy unaligned. Technically, still townie.

I can't do kills as Director. I may yet go neutral as I originally planned and watch what happens... join the victorious side.

I can link you to folks who have no groups and want to vig or protect.

Whatever lies may or may not be present here, we can be sure of one thing: ATPG is on no one's side but his own. If you think you are his ally, you are mistaken - you are his pawn, nothing more. He may decide to betray you for strategic reasons, or simply for the lulz. I'm guessing that some of the deaths last night were mafia members who failed to toe the line.

But let's be generous and assume that ATPG simply wants to give me help so we can have a more exciting fight instead of him crushing the town like ants. He thinks (or would like us to think) he is so ppwerful that the townies will fall left and right. I don't think that is true - yet. But if we don't band together, it will be true. Even if it is too late, I would rather fight on my own terms.

Join me. Join me because you want to fight for this town against the mafia. Join me because you are tired of deceit and backstabbing. Join me because you will no longer submit to the whims of a mad would-be emperor. Join me of your own free will, not because you were ordered to. Can I promise you victory? No, but I promise you this: If my fate is to die, I will drag as many mafia members down as I can.

I have a counter-proposal to sturmhauke's offer:

People of Fatlington! Are you disillusioned with the state of your life? Do you feel that you don't know who to trust; that you hate the evil of the mafia, but don't want to live the sedate and boring life of a townie? Well now you can turn your life around, with Sham-Wow the Democratic Socialist Workers' Party of Fatlington (that's the Communists, folks)!

Meet new people! Feel elitist (don't bother pointing out the irony)! Know who you can trust, and know that you'll stand a better chance of winning the game!

This offer is for a limited time only, and places are filling up fast. So don't wait - PM today!

Disclaimer: The Democratic Socialist Workers' Party of Fatlington is not liable for refusal of entry or loss of limbs/life to traitors. Seriously, don't try to infiltrate us, it will end badly for you.

Our "democratic right to organise politically", hah! Obviously you haven't heard of McCarthyism. Nevertheless, despite such persecution, the Communist Party is actively working to help the town. Unfortunately, due to the volatile political climate we are unable to operate openly, and so need loyal recruits to help us wage our war against the mafia. We have resources above and beyond those of the town, and the more people we have the better we can exercise these. As I have said previously, whilst we are technically neutral we are much more town-aligned than mafia-aligned. In summary - Join the Communist Party!

Yes, for a game that supposedly depends on at least somewhat on recruiting new people, you've all struck me as surprisingly elitist and aloof. I'm not sure I'll ever play a second.

Also, I won't be changing my vote; I'd rather keep Pizza where I can see him.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yes, for a game that supposedly depends on at least somewhat on recruiting new people, you've all struck me as surprisingly elitist and aloof.

It may simply be that people went for folks they knew; it might not have been intentional on anyone's part. That said I understand how you can feel that way if you aren't invited to join groups. Honestly, most of the folks here are decent and inviting, friendly; I would consider it a fluke and encourage you to give us all another chance. I certainly would like to play in a game with you again.

Neri sends in orders and responds to private chat. Very reliable and engaging. A real keeper here, folks... lets try to make Neri feel more welcome in the next game, and hope he joins up.
