[ArpeggiateTHIS]

Come out of hiding? Mine was the 1st vote this phase. I haven't been hiding all game scum.

Raise 25: ArpeggiateTHIS

Oh I think you have been. Trailing every common decision, keeping chips close by, never doing anything to draw attention.

Two can play the raising game. Raise 25: Diana Abnoba.

Raise 10: Diana Abnoba. Should have 40 on her now from me.

[Splitpersonality]

Wager 88: Diana


Sorry I've been away, this one's from the gut guys.

[Double A]

wager 8: diana

As split and civplayah have put it, I'm going with my gut.

[Diana Abnoba]

Arpeg and Split are the remaining mafia; these are their votes:

arpeg- Sasaki; Split; Split; Beskar
split- Split; Arpeg; no vote; no vote

Arpeg votes for known town 1st round, and split votes for himself (?); then 2nd round they quietly vote for each other (only 5 on each other) in the middle of large wagers; then no real action from either of them, Split doesn't vote again until this round against me to save his mafia buddy, and Arpeg votes Split again (with no danger) and runs with the banwagon on beskar. Now Both are voting for me this round because I started in on Arpeg with the 1st vote this phase. SCUM SCUM SCUM


Raise 40: Arpeg

[Askthepizzaguy]

15 minutes remain.

[Splitpersonality]

If you can really give me a good case for Arpeg I'll lynch him.

Absence was due to vacation, hosts were notified and I only returned around 9:45pm est last night.


edit

Also I JUST looked at this thread before posting.

If Arpeg is really mafia i'm sorry.

[Diana Abnoba]

Well I don't know what else to tell you in like 10 minutes (when round is over). If your not mafia, you sure made yourself look like mafia, when trying to save you buddy Arpeg. All in on me after Arpeg was ahead. All I can tell you guys is if you lynch me today town will loose, period. I'm not one of the mafia, swear.

Thank you Split.

Bye Bye Arpeg you mafia scum!

[ArpeggiateTHIS]

Thank you Split.

Bye Bye Arpeg you mafia scum!

You'll get yours next round.

"I've got a little message from Arpeg: *pulls shotgun*

*BOOOOOOOOM!!*

[Diana Abnoba]

Well at least I took down a mafia before I died.

[Askthepizzaguy]

That's nice, everyone. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lot of deaths to narrate.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

We should have realized that yesterday was lylo, and today was a mafia win all the way.

[Diana Abnoba]

LyLo? what does this mean Sasaki. You think that Arpeg is town?

End of Day Five



Michael went off to grab a large pepperoni pizza and another beer. This time, ArpeggiateTHIS dealt the cards.

ArpeggiateTHIS: All right.... Five card stud, jokers wild, the sky is the limit. Ante up.

After several rounds of betting and raising, the hand was almost over.

Diana Abnoba: I think I finally have a good hand. I have a straight. What do you have, boys?

ArpeggiateTHIS: I'm calling your bluff. You don't have squat. I am going all-in on you.

Cultured Drizzt Fan: Too rich for my blood. I'm out of here.

Double A: Yeah, I'm also going to fold.

civplayah: I also have a straight. How very interesting.

Splitpersonality: *wakes up from his nap* I think Diana is guilty.

Diana Abnoba: Split, for the last time, this is a game of POKER, not mafia.

Splitpersonality: What? Really?

Diana Abnoba: That's right.

Splitpersonality: Then why is there a pile of dead bodies in the corner?

ArpeggiateTHIS: Those are paperweights. Now will you please just fold and go back to sleep, you schmuck?

Splitpersonality: Schmuck? SCHMUCK??? NOBODY CALLS ME A SCHMUCK!!! What's a schmuck?

ArpeggiateTHIS: It means an obnoxious, contemptible person; one who is stupid, foolish, or detestable.

Splitpersonality: Oh I don't think so 'Peggy. This time, the schmuck is on YOU. I bet 88,000 dollars, and I too have a straight. Now let's see who's bluffing now, buddy boy!

ArpeggiateTHIS: Fine! Fine! Throw your chips away. When the boss gets in here, you're dead anyway. I bet.... ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!!!

Everyone just kind of sat there in shock. Even Crazed Rabbit lifted his head and went "huh?". Then he went back to being dead.

Double A: Uhh.... Arpeg? You kind of... don't have one hundred million dollars.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Quiet fool! It doesn't matter, you idiots bet it all, and I have the cards... LOOK! FIVE ACES!

Diana Abnoba: Five aces? This is a standard card deck. And I know you don't have the jokers because I needed both of them to fill my straight. What the hell are you smoking?

Crazed Rabbit lifted his head and said-

Crazed Rabbit: Whatever you do, DON'T get anything from that guy down by the freight yard. I was tripping my balls off, man.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Oh shut up! You're supposed to be dead!

ArpeggiateTHIS pulled out a shotgun and blew Crazed Rabbit's head off.

Crazed Rabbit: Ow. That stings.

Diana Abnoba: Show me your "five aces", Mister THIS.

Splitpersonality: Yeah, and put down that shotgun before you kill yourself.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Not if I kill you first! Here, look at my cards, FIVE ACES. You're totally going to lose, and when you do, you're going to get shot to death by the boss!

civplayah: "The boss?"

Diana Abnoba: Oh look, you've got two aces of spades. You're a big fat cheater.

ArpeggiateTHIS: So what? I cheated fair and square. What do you think this is, a game you can win? You're a fool if you think that. You will die, just like all the others.

At this point, Michael entered the room carrying a box of pizza and a beer, accompanied by the cashier girl, who was clinging to his arm.
They made a lovely couple. He was wondering what all the ruckus was. Then he saw Mister THIS holding a shotgun and threatening all his patrons.

Michael: Vinny, may I ask what you're doing? Did you collect the monies I requested you collect?

ArpeggiateTHIS: Yeah, it's all right there on the table, boss. I won it fair and square.

Michael: Did you now?

Diana Abnoba: Hey, Michael, he's been cheating. He's got five aces. I have a straight.

Splitpersonality: Yeah, but I also have a straight.

civplayah: But my straight is the best. See, lucky 7 high

Splitpersonality: I have 7, 6, 5, 4, and 3.

Diana Abnoba: You're kidding. That's what I have.

Michael: Vinny you dumb-dumb. You're supposed to stack the deck in favor of your OWN cards, not everybody's.

ArpeggiateTHIS: It was all part of the plan....

Everyone flipped over their cards, and sure enough, almost everyone had filled a straight, except for the people who folded early.

Cultured Drizzt Fan: You've gotta be kidding me.

Double A: How could this have happened?

ArpeggiateTHIS: I'll tell you how. Five of a kind beats a straight, right? Well I made sure everyone else had a straight, so they wouldn't also get five of a kind. It was pure genius.

civplayah: Why didn't you deal yourself the jokers, then?

ArpeggiateTHIS: ...........

civplayah:

ArpeggiateTHIS: Ohhhhh yeahhhh...... that could have worked too. I guess. If you want to get technical. But the fact is, I won. Five aces beats a straight.

Michael: Vinnie, my boy, you've done great work for me in the past, but you're getting sloppy. You're not supposed to show the patrons that the game was rigged. And you're not supposed to shoot them in front of everybody else. I'm afraid I'm going to have to let you go....

ArpeggiateTHIS: Oh I don't think so, "pops". I'm the one with the shotgun, remember?

Michael: These words you are speaking in my direction, are true. You do have a shotgun. Alls I have is this beer, and this pizza, and this lovely lady what works the front counter for me. Ain't she a cutie? Well, she's also got a little surprise for you.

The cashier girl pulled the tommy gun from behind Michael Valerio's back.

Michael: Drop the gun, Vinnie, and I'll let you walk out of here alive. Here, have a slice of pizza. I'll even give you the employee discount. With tax, only one dollar. This is the best pizza in the city, come.... have a slice.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Fine. I do love this pizza. Put down your gun and I'll put down mine.

Michael: You first, son.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Okay, okay. I put it down. Here's a dollar for the pizza.

Michael: Enjoy. See, I also put my weapon down. We're family, we shouldn't resort to violence against one another.

ArpeggiateTHIS: I totally agree, pops.

ArpeggiateTHIS grabbed his shotgun and walked to the back door, released from his obligations to his father Michael, and his employment at Papa Gino's pizza.

Michael: Hey, Vinnie, hold on just a second.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Yeah, pops?

Michael: ...One dollar?

ArpeggiateTHIS: Yeah, one dollar. Isn't that what you said it cost?

Michael: I deliver you a pizza, and you're paying me exact change?

ArpeggiateTHIS: Yeah, why, what's wrong?

*Michael picked up the Tommy gun and pointed it at ArpeggiateTHIS, who was standing there dumbfounded, and opened fire, shooting him directly in the chest.... then the stomach.... then the face.... he continued firing his weapon for a full minute and a half, emptying his Tommy Gun into the body of Vincenzo "Vinnie" Valerio, his eldest son. When he was done, he sat on Vinnie's bloodied chest and began bashing him in the face with it.*

Michael: YOU MISERABLE, UNGRATEFUL, SPOILED LITTLE BRAT!!! I RAISED YOU BETTER THAN THAT!!! YOU FORGOT TO TIP THE PIZZA GUY!!! YOU'RE NOT MY SON!

Arrivederci, Vinnie... may you burn in the fiery oven until your edges are too crisp.

*Michael addresses the other gamblers*

Michael: Thank you all for placing such generous wagers. With these winnings, you've nearly paid off your debt. But you're not done yet. You have one more chance to bring me back my money.... all of it.... or you will be a deadbeat, just like this guy lying on the ground what with the bruises on his face and the bullet holes all over his body. I can't stand deadbeats. Never forget that.

Night Four begins now. Round ends Wednesday, August 18th, at 1759 (6 PM) Eastern Time USA. You have less than 24 hours to send in orders.

[Beskar]

Hah, I should have so stuck with my original accusation of him sticking up for Jolt. It was right.

(Though looking back, it was CR forcing me to defend myself which ruined that bandwagon on THIS, so I blame CR.)

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Pizza, we're going to have words about how you are to blame for me reading too much into the pm you sent me after round 1.

[ArpeggiateTHIS]

I just wasn't cut out to do the doity woik.

You're all lousy gambling scum anyway, nuthin' betta ta do than waste your moolah at Papa's place. Only thing that made me different was the fact that I took advantage o' youse.

[Crazed Rabbit]

Hmmm. Did not realize I was dead. Should probably read the write ups more often.
