Damn, I thought I took care of you already.

Jam, if you have that person's e-mail you may want to poke them and let them know that way... they may still think that 'poly is down (though that in itself is a nice big clue as to who it might be... who isn't as active?)

It just might be an act of deception. We have seen it before.

So Jam already has the kill orders but is trying to throw us off to who it is and blame one of the less active people?

[rah]

OR, (which is more likely) he's been active and waiting to send the kill orders to put the suspicion somewhere else.

Ah...

So who was the first one to post in this thread again?



Theben...?

[Jamski]

Well, yeah. I'm not going to post them as soon as I get them. That would be too obvious

[Traianvs]

If I were playing in this game, I would have been emperor! damnit.. too late

[Tuberski]

Not if you get killed in the first couple of rounds.....like I always seem to.

ACK!

[FlameFlash]

Of course... you could become some pre-game start ghost too... that would get you to emporer faster...

Poor Tuber.

I love it when Jamski writes his variations on a same theme

Look at his pattern:
Zopperoni: highest servant to whomever is in power
Spiffor: Senator
Joncha: pimp
Skanky: pub/tavern owner
Rah: Innkeeper
Alva: retired soldier
GhengisFarb: artist
GJRamsey: librarian
FlameFlash: priest
Rasputin: priest

The specifics may vary, but I love his way to keep consistent roles from each setting to another

Unfortunately I HATE art and believe he does this just to spite me........

[Kassiopeia]

By the way, I think Zopperoni's role is my an invention of mine too, he was the butler of the duke in the game I GM'ed.

Poser pr0n is art

Episode 1

After a hard night's drinking in Skanky's Taverna, the assembled group of mixed friends, Romans and countrymen fell asleep on the straw covered floor. They awoke to a scene of horror and butchery.

Skanky Burn's head lay on the bar, with his body nowhere to be seen. A trail of blood lead down to the Tiber, which the group followed, led by MattH who was looking for a clue as to where the corpse might be.

"We have to inform the authorities" insisted Spiffor.

The group marched through deserted streets towards the capitol, but forund nobody. Overnight the whole population of Rome, more than one million people, had gone missing.

"This is really strange" observed Spiffor
"Tetigisti acu," commented Zopperoni.
"Pah," interrupted Joncha "Si tacuisses, philosophus manisses!"

Zopperoni just glared at him.

Ghengis stopped to think.
"If we're the only ones in Rome, then one of us must have killed Skanky" he stated.
"True," replied Guynemer, "But who?"

Everyone looked to MattH, who as Tribune should have been in a position to comment.

"We shall use a jury of the people," stated MattH, "With the most votes determining who is guilty."

"Jupiter shall guide the votes" stated Rasputin, with one hand over FlameFlash's mouth, who was trying to say something.

Hercules flexed his muscles and spoke.
"Why don't one of you smart guys cut open a chicken to see who dunnit?" he asked "That shows what the gods think."

Chaunk put one arm protectively round his sacred chickens.
"The gods think that you should leave thinking to those with brains," he snapped back.

"Do you have any spare parchment?" Jonny asked GJRamsey "I think I feel an ode coming on..."

Its time to VOTE!!!!!!

Regarding clues - they will all be "in the story" in this game, as people keep sitting on them and keeping them secret.

Regarding votes - you have 24 hours from now.

Regarding the long wait - I was sitting on the kill orders and watching TV

***Clue***
The killer has left his "mark" by using the pool of blood on Skanky's bartop. A single horizontal line of blood is clearly painted on the white plaster wall behind the bar, about 6 inches long, and one inch wide.

This, and Skanky's decapitation, seem to clearly incriminate Vlad, our resident gladiator trainer.
