Capo di Tutti Capi III [Concluded]

Why is this being considered seriously? I have not helped the mafia in anyway. It was Kage who let Disco's family know about johnhughtom being a likely FBI Agent and Kage was feeding their family our investigations. You're taking his word that I helped their family? What 'detective' did I give up? This is a blatant lie.

Also, it was ATPG's disorganization of the protection groups that got my partner john killed. Kommodus organized my own protection, but ATPG went and told the person or group protecting john to switch to me. He blames it on bad timing because of the org going down for a few hours, but either way he's responsible for john's death. He knew we were both FBI and decided to just have one of us protected, when he knew we were both going to be hit.

I know the results on ATPG were reliable when they were recieved, but that was a few nights ago and knowing what I know now, I would not trust ATPG at all.

If you are protown and want to get into some protection groups or vig kills on mafioso, contact either Kommodus or TinCow. They may not be what they say they are either, but they haven't gotten any FBI Agents killed either.

The first because it has become quite clear with the deaths of Yaropolk and Count Arach, that he is involved in some anti-communist plot which has no bearing on the townies real cause. The second because she has been working with Mafia to further her own goals.

Thank you to all my supporters. :bow: :balloon2:

At this rate, I am the most trustworthy.

Whatever the case, it seems to me that slashandburn or Kommodus are good candidates. You do struck me as pretty defensive, Prole. Were not even considering you for lynching. Just not considering you for director.

I'm already being asked things like this via pm, I might as well address it here.

First of all, Reenk:

What exactly have you done that makes you qualified to dictate what the town should do?

And second,

Proletariat, I did not order anyone not to protect John, and I already explained that to you and gave you the darned proof. Please dont' slander me.

From who, Reenk? Obviously that wouldn't be a worthy source. And, of course, any detectives still alive may have decided its not in their best interests to declare themselves open to the public merely for the sake of confirming Reenk's(and a few other people's, perhaps) innocence.

Perhaps the best way to put it- if Reenk had been scum(aside from a godfather, of course), he would most likely already be dead and done. Detective would have given the info away, and the bandwagon train would have gone a a chuggin'.

Since there are two sides claiming not to vote for the other, I guess I will throw my hat into the ring.

Select: ACIN

That's pretty fair reasoning. I'll go with that.

It's just that my pride has taken a beating from the poor reasons why I shouldn't be Director. I guess I have to let that dream go. :shame:

Select: slashandburn

Do we carry out the selections in the night phase ?

Pizza I wouldn't take it too personally... you have got to decide several lynches and organise quite a few groups... gotta share some of the toys with everyone else ~;)

No, it's too early to start selections.

Oh, no, I'm not taking it personally.... there's a lot of people in this game who would like to be the director. I wasn't even going to take a shot at it until I realized I could still perform my duty while director. I was under the impression I couldn't do anything while director.

As it now seems hopeless that I'd get the directorship, and as good a move as I believe that is, in truth there is a better move and I fully support it, even if I'm not getting full support in return. I will endorse a different candidate if they feel up to doing the funny lynch write-ups.

I admit doing the lynch writeups would be awesome though.

Heading out soon:

To Atpg: I'm clearly more suitable to suggest things to the town that you, not to mention that my words obviously carry more weight than yours for a pragmatic reason (it's very doubtful you would have won had I been able to run again anyway, so don't be too hurt ~:pat:).

Let's take a look at what I haven't done (that is the real question):
-I haven't teamed up with a Mafia, you have (with GH)
-I haven't killed an innocent, you have (Yaropolk at least)
-I haven't had a detective lynched, you have (CountArach)

On the other hand, you seem to be acting as if there is any evidence of my innocence "I hear the claim but not the reason". :laugh4: :rolleyes: Again, not only did I reveal a townie PM so fast on Day 1, but a subsequent detective result has cleared me. Excuse me if I don't care much for your sources which have been wrong (conveniently) in different regards.

And now, what have YOU done? You seemed megalomaniacal when you stated that you would give us a scum every round. And have you? Your gimmies have been CountArach and disco. The first is anything but (he is either the CIA undercover commie that the FBI doesn't want to get any credit or at worst he is actually a commie). Maybe you need to eliminate commies to win, but the town doesn't. The second has yet to be confirmed, and the knowledge of disco's potential guilt was divulged by me early in the second round anyway. :shrug:

Also, there are the unsavory facts that apparently you have been essentially asking people to join your groups and vote for your selection in private/chat. :no:

To Prole: Yeah, the case against you isn't nearly as strong as Atpg, it's basically Kage's word. Still, it makes sense (there is a motive). Besides, a woman director?! :drama: :clown:

On the other hand, someone like Kommodus seem MUCH better choices with MUCH better records. It was because of Kommodus that GH got lynched. Kommodus was along with TinCow a huge reason we flushed out atheotes and his potential family. His sources seem to be giving us good stuff. It is for this reason I even had him listed, alongside my original choice.

Atpg and Prole are both covering their butts anyway, there is no need to let them occupy a position of honor, security, and trust.



Now then, back to the town at large. The lynch is a single this round, don't bother going double (you make Seamus do extra work by changing mine up last time :whip:).

Don't bother protecting me when I lose my director protection unless you have nobody better to do than a townie. I have given all the things I know to various people.

For another lead for the town to look at, read this PM:

I ask because I believe ATPG may have tried to kill you. I think he may be a communist.

My reasoning;
1)ATPG killed Yaropolk as one of only two people. GH, his partner, posted here and suggested ATPG had a special one-shot ability.

That kill method very closely resembled a real life killing by the Bulgarian Secret Police. In that case, a Bulgarian dissident was killed by a poison pellet from an umbrella in the same location on the body.

ATPG claimed Yaropolk was a communist. We know now that he's an innocent townie.

This leads me to believe several things; ATPG is a communist, he's a killer, and Yaropolk might have been a specific target for role goals (ie Yaropolk was a communist dissident in game).

2)And then the badass Eastern European lady attacked you. If you survived by luck, and ATPG is a communist spymaster of sorts, than he may have ordered it thinking you would die and he could claim the director's position easily.

In the day he begins a big push to become director. He claims it's necessary, but his only specialty is mimicking Communist Secret Police killing methods.

He did, however, go after CA, who was open about being from the Soviet Union. So I may be off here.

Does it seem like CR really wants to figure out how I survived and does it also seem like he knew beforehand how the kill was going to occur. :inquisitive: Definitely list worthy my friends. :smash:

TinCow, there was no source on Leet Eriksson whatsoever. I just wanted fiz to get to play longer. :laugh4:

To Reenk:

I have no rebuttal to your recounting of some of the facts about me, I only suggest that it's not being presented in a fair-minded way, and as much as I've explained myself this game, I feel as though I am speaking to a brick wall. I have no desire to go through the motions again when people aren't even listening. By the way, your appraisal of my record for revealing scumbags seems to totally ignore the list of criminals and guilty people I've presented.

I have withdrawn my question about your innocence and given up on being the director. No need to kick a man when he's down. I'd appreciate it if you'd refrain from rolling your eyes at me, too, for a change.

Yes, I did want to know, because the presence of somebody who can off directors seems noteworthy to me. I don't know how you get that I 'knew how the kill was going to occur'. If I did, why would I bother asking you? Though I suppose if I don't make a list it's not a real game of Capo. :beam:

And I'm still suspicious of a guy who uses a Bulgarian Secret Police killing method (ATPG and his umbrella with a poison pellet). :stare:

When that kill went through, I danced a jig. I also thought it was a pretty cool way to die.

I didn't choose the kill method, I didn't write the kill method. I don't know why that kill method was chosen. I've been getting headaches ever since over the kill method. If I had any say in the matter, it wouldn't have been that method, because apparently that particular method means that Seamus has proven that I am some kind of anti-USA communist spook (with a fetish for killing other communists?).

It isn't the case. This game is not that easy. The kill method does not reveal my role or alignment. If you think it does, then you can join the club and I'll be sitting over here in a miserable little corner with progressively fewer people I can talk to who don't think I'm scum.

FYI, multiple people were given townie cover role PMs by Seamus.

Cowhead418, Warmaster Horus, Dutch Guy, Greyblades...

I wonder why they won't post in-thread. Especially since they've all been active recently.

Strolling down the same old sidewalk
Move in for the kill and forget my name
All this time I knew that this wouldn't suffice
Make no mistake, she always knew I wouldn't break

I'd steal your eyes (I'd steal your eyes)
Just so you can never see me fall (see me fall)
I'd steal your tongue
And I'd steal your tongue
Just so you could never tell me to let go again

Who's Killing Who
Tell me again

-- Bleed the Dream “Who’s Killing Who”


Summary of Events, Night Six


Kommodus thought he saw a glint from a 3rd floor window across the street at the other end of the block, so he was already falling and rolling before the <wheeet> of the .30 ’06 round went by. If he could make it to the dumpster behind the store he’d just been passing he would have hard cover.

Kommo jumped up, moving quickly to the side, surprising Dutch_guy by nearly running into him on the sidewalk. Dutch-guy’s surprised face blew outwards from the impact of a second sniper bullet, spraying the back of Kommodus’ coat as he reached the safety of the dumpster.

As he stood there, catching his breath, a thin loop of wire whipped out of the open door on the side of the dumpster, looping over Kommodus’ panting head. The man inside quickly tightened the wire garotte by bracing his knees against the inside of the dumpster and allowing his upper body to fall backwards. The wire ripped into Kommodus’ neck, virtually decapitating him in a spray of blood.

When Fermanagh’s officers found Kommodus’ body a few minutes later, they noticed a queen of hearts had been tucked into the hatband of his fedora. On the back was written: ‘All mimsy were the Borogroves.’


TinCow expected trouble, after all this was Fatlington. When the 6-foot rabbit stepped out of the corner taproom he’d been only a few steps from entering, TinCow didn’t wait for him to level the double-barreled shotgun, but charged full bore at the bunny. He put his shoulder into the rabbit’s belly in a hit that would have done credit to an NFL linebacker. The rabbit’s gun flew out of his furry paws and into a storm drain as the rabbit – TinCow riding him – crashed to the ground.

Both men were a little stunned by the force of the blow. TinCow managed to get to his feet first, only to stop still when he felt the twin muzzles of a second shotgun gently poking him in the back of the neck.

“We’re all mad here,” said a slightly muffled voice behind him, “meow.”

The man behind TinCow pulled both triggers, only to be rewarded with two little <puff> sounds as both shells turned out to be duds. TinCow spun to attack but was clubbed down with the gun by the fellow wearing the grinning cat mask. Sirens blared close by as the police responded – no doubt called in by the other patrons at the taproom.

Groggy and bleeding from a cut to the temple, but still defiant, Tincow shouted, “Aren’t you going to try to finish the job, you freaks!”

“Eat me!” said the cat.

“I’m late…I’m late,” said the rabbit.

Both would-be killers escaped into the darkening night.



Beefy187 was walking along the damp streets, collar of his coat turned up against the persistent drizzle, when he spied the too-familiar gleam of a glossy black leather trench coat coming out of the shadows in front of him. Beefy froze, looking around for signs of golden powder, balloons; for anything weird.

“Do you like seared beef?” said the shadowy figure. “I’m serving it up ‘old-school!’”

The shadowy figure threw a large glass bottle into the air toward Beefy, intercepting it with an even more quickly thrown kunai. The bottle shattered, scattering its golden powder into the drizzle and creating a cloud of flame. Beefy, dropping flat, was spared most of the heat and searing flame – the powder had combusted too quickly and too thoroughly in the drizzle and mist of this particular Fatlington evening.

Beefy sat up, noticing without surprise that the shadowy figure had vanished, and wondering why he still smelled something burning when there were no flames visible. A split second later he figured it out, whipping off his new fedora and tossing the flaming hat into the street. Beefy had survived both attacks, but always at the cost of a fine hat.


Iskander3.1, now sporting the latest in body armor, made his way warily to his car. He paused, checking the door to see if his tell-tale had been moved and crouching down for a quick look under the body of the car. Nothing was out of place.

As he straightened to open the door, the first bullet crashed into his left knee. He half fell, catching himself with one hand and reaching for his piece with the other. The second bullet caught him in the right forearm, shattering both bones. A figure walked slowly out from between the parked vans across the street.

“If at first you don’t succeed…”

The Buntline was particularly steady in the figure’s outstretched hand.

“Try…”

A third bullet slammed into the armor over Iskander’s heart, slamming him up against the side of his car.

“Try, again.”

The final shot went straight through Iskander’s left eye.


Preferring the boardwalk because of the relatively open visibility it provided, scottishranger was reasonably secure. Like everyone these days, he wore armor and carried a handgun and like most he made a habit of not moving in a straight line or at a consistent speed. You had to make them work for it at least.

The motorcycle roared up the ramp from Glade Place and straight onto the boardwalk. Like some kind of toreador, scottishranger pirouetted and let the motorcycle race past him, crashing through the railing and onto the beach as its rider jumped clear.

But it did take his eyes off the buildings next to the boardwalk. One painful <crack> on the back of his head and scott saw nothing for a while.

He awoke, hog-tied, at the bottom of a 6-foot deep sandpit. Staring down at him were four faces – all with grim expressions and each person clutching a shovel.

“You maniacs! Why are you doing this? “I’m not one of the one’s you’re after.”

None of the expressions changed. No face showed a hint of remorse.

“Now what? You mentals just stand around and watch the surf drown me?”

They did not wait for the tide – they just filled in the hole. The roar of the surf made the screams inaudible more than a few feet away and nobody was watching the little scene in the dim drizzle that cloaked Fatlington. By morning, all signs that anyone had been there were erased by the high tide.


Khazaar, though relatively new to Fatlington, was quickly adapting to his environment. He was driving warily, wearing his armor, and had a handgun in easy reach. When he saw the two men pushing around the attractive blond – just a bit too underdressed for the weather – he didn’t stop to play the hero. Instead, he zipped up to the nearest police callbox (he’d picked up a key from a buddy in the FPD) to phone up the precinct.

His car never got there. Halfway up the block, a quick burst from a Browning heavy machine gun tore his radiator apart and cracked the motor block. He hunched down, trying to keep the heavy motor between himself and the gunner. He knew the gunfire would attract the police quickly.

A figure leaned in from the far side of the car, his hand holding a Smith and Wesson .44 “New Century” revolver extended towards Khazaar’s head. Khazaar turned, sensing something was wrong. The hollow point round, hand-loaded according to meticulous directions of Elmer Keith, made a hole just under 44 hundreths of an inch in diameter between Khazaar’s eyes. The hole in put in the far side of his skull was an order of magnitude larger. Khazaar was dead before his eyes could blink closed.


Morning Session, Day Seven


“So as you can see,” said Commissioner Fermanagh, “last night was our bloodiest yet. You MUST bring an end to this vicious attack.”

“As requested, I have also brought along the results of the post-mortem investigations we’ve conducted on Jolt and discovery1."

"Jolt had a criminal record and was probably what is colloquially called a “wiseguy,” but had no recent arrests or known mafia connection. On the other hand, discovery1 was a Mafioso – one of the Luca protection types – and his death will be of direct benefit to our town.”

"I also have one horrible point to relate. Despite having been a Fatlington detective for more than a year, CountArach was, apparently, a Red and actively working for the overthrow of the United States. Unknown to us, he'd been in the Lincoln Brigade and spent time during the war assisting the Reds in China, not Chiang's government as we'd been led to understand. I am sorry for this and I am initiating a review of all FPD personnel. I never thought McCarthy's warnings would hit quite so close to home."


Fermanagh stepped away from the podium, looking briefly at the immaculately turned out Reenk Roink, and shaking his head with an odd expression (awe?) on his face. Director Roink calmly began to review the procedures for the lynch voting and for selecting a new director.

See? AskthePizzaGuy was right all along. Give the man a medal.

Select: AskthePizzaGuy

I'll decline the directorship run, Beskar, but thank you. I couldn't get support anyway.

Select: Proletariat

"Working actively to overthrow the United States". I believe Fatlington, New Jersey is part of the United States. CountArach was NOT a pro-town role.

I for one am very interested in finding out what this kunai killer (or not) guy is up to.

Select:slashandburn

So I think I figured out Kunai Guy:

He wins the game once every single hat in Fatlington has been burned.

Uh anyway, Red = Bad, and that's a pretty good reason to trust ATPG for weeding CA out. My guess is that the Reds are like Traitors.

Yes, Red = Bad for sure, but McCarthyists/CIA does not necessarily mean good. If I recall, they actually did more damage than help to the U.S. in history.

I believe ATPG's intentions for now at least are helping the town, and I will give him credit that he has succeeded in finding several mafiosi. However, I believe that an all-but-confirmed role, which we know is not strictly pro-town, should not be given the invulnerable position of Director in any case- it gives too much power to a player who could decide to switch allegiances as soon as the other side has more to offer. Again, I don't believe ATPG's going to do this at this stage in the game, but I don't want to take the chance. Even less so with Prole, who has supposedly already been working both sides.

For this reason, I'm going to Select: Kommodus.

Kommodus just died. There's at least one or two mafias that are becoming huge right now :embarassed:

Select: prole

Unless a headless, dead guy can be Director...I think you better think it over:laugh4:

Kommodus is dead... bit late for invunerability...

Must congratulate ATPG on another mafia dead, im not saying forget his mistakes... but give the man credit he has got us at least 2 mafia by my calculations...

Unsure about this commie thing tbh...

hmm who is throwing thier hat into the director selection ring ?

ATPG and SlashandBurn ?

Ill choose a little later... must not forget to vote again as well this time...

Edit : :daisy: WE beat me to it.... don't worry about it... I have voted for dead guys a few times myself...
