Mafia 8 - The Sign of Death

[Jamski]

Either HMTL or vB code. Poly supports both.

[alva]

Css too?

Can you make a table with vB???

[Jamski]

I don't see why not. The whole forum is running on vB isn't it?

Not really I don't speak draconian either.

See, this is why the rest of the world hates us. We don't even take the time to learn other languages, even ones as simple as draconian.

I'm sorry but when it came time to choose classes in HS I just couldn't think of a time when I might need to speak to a Dragon in its native tongue.

[Guynemer]

Just you wait until the dragon overlords come and take back Apolyton Village.

You think we've got problems now, with this Mafia running around? Hooooooo boy.

The code of the forum is a mix of PHP and HTML. vB-code is just applied to post-related stuff like smilies.

I know a little Draconian:



It means many, many ,many warm greetings from Galapagos Islands

Since this thread is going full-throttle, and has the full potential to deviate from the matter at hand, we will not wait for Spiffor.

I cast a six-sided die, where two sides belonged to Spaced Cowboy, two - to CapitanGarlic, and two - to Jamski, and here's what I got:

---

The villagers were shocked at such a turn of events. Inspector Hercules was just heading to Rah's Inn to interrogate Comrade Tassadar, when he heard the news that he had been killed during the night. It was quite shocking news for the ploiceman as well as other villagers. But they didn't loose their head. Hercules held a village meeting, where the people were trying to figure out who it was exactly that committed such an atrocity. There was a lot of finger-pointing, and it seemed that the accusations flew just in rememberance of old quarrels rather than based on any real facts.

As such, the village was greatly divided, and almost no villager was left unaccused. (And those that were, were eyed with even more suspicion when everything was over.) In fact, the spread of blame was so even, there wasn't any person, who the majority of the village thought may have committed the murder. So, in the end, it was left to chance as to who would be executed for the murder.

The choice fell on Spaced Cowboy. He was put under a large oak, put down on his knees, facing the trunk. Then Hercules shot him in the back of the head with his police revolver...

It was decided that Jamski would now take care of Spaced's Ranch, because he is the only one in the village that actually knows how to deal with a large number of anymals, and has experience shepherding, and also because Spaced's wife was so depressed by the death of her beloved husband, that she thought it best to leave this village.

Hercules places order for three coffins

Is that right?. or is it the toss of the silent coin. or should those who didn't vote for any of those three now vote for one of those three, if the wish, with a 12 hours
Deadline

Edit :Ah just note update. Just one coffin then. Did he die with his boots on?
Shall he be buried with them.

[Skanky Burns]

Do we find out if we get one of the mafia? I mean, they would probably be carying around mafia-related implements on their person or have them in the place of residence that we would loot search through after their death...

Each of the Mafiosi will have a distinct killing style. Kinda like the cord around the victim's neck the last game. (Hence the name of the game: The Sign of Death) You will see the styles alternate. But, as soon as you see it settle to a single style, you know someone got one of the killers.

No. I thought that if I kill all the people that are tied, then the game would, indeed be too short. Thus, like I said in the first post of the thread, I let chance settle it.

[Hercules]

I don't think Space Cowboy was. It would say so on the chart.

But good idea to loot examine his personal belongings

Hey Jamski, the lamb sacrifice worked that time.

[Skanky Burns]

I like how you are running this, Vovan.

[vovan]

The next morning, the sun was shining once again, but some really dark clouds were creeping up to the village from behind the mountains on the West. Jamski, the new owner of Spaced Cowboy's ranch, had already had a chance to take a look around his new property and found that the roof in the stable was leaking. He decided to pay the thatcher a visit, and ask him to fix it.

But when Jamski go to the thatcher's, a shock was waiting for him. As the shepherd opened the door to MattH's house, he saw the owner lying on the table, dead. The blood was still dripping off the side of the table and onto the floor. It looked like the man was killed with his own tools, for nearby lay a hammer, drenched in blood. Both MattH's legs were twisted oddly - they were broken at the thighs. His face was also terrible severed: the lower jaw was missing, and the toungue stuck out oddly; and his temples had holes in them.

[Guynemer]

I say we institute the 24-hour rule pronto. For both the villagers and the Mafia.

Spiffor. Its the quiet ones you have to watch, and he has had ample time since the game started to PM his kills to Vovan.

[Nikolai]

I'd say we must watch everyone.

[Jamski]

Spiffor - I didn't even know he was playing. Kill the quiet ones, and do the game a service.

-Jam

[Adagio]

My vote goes for alva...

[Hercules]

Hercules just managed to squeeze Space Cowboy into the coffin when he heard the news

" Guess that third coffin w'll come in handy afterall " he thought.


Interesting, he mused, That's the first time MattH was at home in his life when anybody called needing his services.

Hercules visits scene of crime

Hercules had heard the rumours about Spiffor. It's true that as treasurer and town clerk he would try to screw the legs of a table and he liked his pound of flesh.
My god, MattH's legs were in a quare shape as if somebody had tried to ....nahhhh. And those holes in the head. I bet there's about 500 grams of flesh missing there.

Yeah definitely a Mafia job.

Strange Nikolai is next door and he seems to have heard and seen nothing. But ADG's ( the wheelwright and cartmaker) shop was also across the street. Spiffor may have a good motive but not the physical strength to carry out this grotesque murder.

I vote for ADG

[Drogue]

alva. He's been suspiciously quiet, when he is usually quite active. I don't think it's Spiffor, since the Mafia would usually vote, IMHO.

[alva]

Too much work Drogue, too much work. I've been quiet since early january. Which just happen to coincide with me going back to school again.

To try and protect myself, I going to vote for Spiffor, the REALLY quiet one !!!

[Drogue]

You do have a point. However we cannot change votes. It is but the second round too, so it would be a lot of luck get them this early.

[Skanky Burns]

Then again two games ago we got the mafia in the first round. The odds of getting both mafia in the first two rounds now though are much much lower.
