FG: Mafia 29: Poly Meet of Horror

[Sandman]

And in addition to the data provided on the list, the culprit of name quickly jumped on the jrabbit docpile when only one vote was accured against himself and at least three against Jrabbit... that's mighty suspicious.

No it's not. I saw that most of the anti-Sandmanites hadn't voted yet,and I was sure they'd vote for me, as they have done. Don't pretend that you wouldn't have voted for me if I'd not voted for the (regretfully innocent) -Jrabbit.

[-Jrabbit]

...and after all the lovely research I did, this is the thanks I get... a coin toss????

Tuberski, this was unconscionable and paints a target on your back.
Be advised that I have a long memory.

Actually, DarkCloud, Sandman was the 4th to vote for me. And getting props from the ListMaster on my list is flattering. Thanks for trying to save me.

* -Jrabbit ponders the wisdom of attending Polymeets, makes a list *
Rabbitpile participants, in order:
Theben, reismark, Snowflake, Sandman, Adagio, Nikolai, Jonny, Tuberski.

A note to my fellow dead men -- Please have a tall, cold one ready for me.

My new 3-wood is at the ready. This drowning will involve a lot of kicking and screaming...

[rah]

Join the club roomie.

[-Jrabbit]

Maybe I should use the pitching wedge...

[DrSpike]

I'll scare them with some ghostly antics........you get ready to whack 'em with both clubs.

Chapter 5 – Not even a snowflake for the New Year


Rah’s room wasn’t a pretty sight. Blood was everywhere and rah’s head was smashed, parts of his brain all over the place. Even though she had a fight with rah the other day and didn’t like him very much, quite possibly was pleased with his demise, Snowflake couldn’t bear the horrific sight and fainted.
Theben and Spaced Cowboy helped her. They carried her to her room, where she regained consciousness. The three then joined the others who had gathered in the now empty Aussie suite to try to decide what to do.

When Theben was just about to enter he heard DarkCloud saying: “We must vote again. We have no alternative.”
“Yeah, let me start by voting for Snowflake. She hated rah”, Whoha said.

Snowflake entered the room and said: “I may have disliked him somewhat, but that’s hardly a motif for a murder, don’t you think?”
“What we need to do is establish both the motif and the opportunity”, Theben started his analysis. “Since rah was moderator of our forums, everybody of us had the motif. Come on now, who of you hasn’t suffered from rah’s actions? Who hasn’t been given a single PCR or restriction? Or whose thread hasn’t been closed by rah at least once? I doubt there are people like that among us.”
“There are”, Sandman interrupted Theben. “I haven’t been PCRed, restricted and my threads haven’t been closed by any moderator. Ever!”

Theben continued his analysis undeterred by Sandman’s remark.
“We all had motifs. I won’t lie to you. I knew rah well and I too wanted to get rid of him. But the question here is who had the opportunity. –Jrabbit went out for fifteen minutes and in this time rah closed two of my threads, restricted me for a day, played a couple of turns of civ, someone came in, beat the hell out of rah, went out, and then –Jrabbit returned and saw what had happened. That’s what you’re trying to make us believe JR. I say not likely. I say you did it.”

“Well either he did it, or we were right last time and Sandman did it”, joncha added.
“No, I didn’t do it! Rah was my best friend! You guys are insane”, -Jrabbit couldn’t believe what was happening. He just lost his best friend and he was about to suffer an even bigger blow – be accused of his murder.
“Look, according to the order in which the people were killed it’s obviously the work of someone who hates spammers, someone who hardly ever posts, someone like you Sandman”, -Jrabbit started accusing people to save his neck.

The vote was very close, but eventually JR got the majority of only one vote.
“What are we going to do with him”, Nikolai asked.
“Drowning like the others? It has become kind of boring”, Adagio said.
“No drowning for this fruit who tried to interpret the data his way and accuse my innocent self. I say bury him alive. A fitting end for someone who would kill his best friend”, Sandman suggested.
“Capital idea”, Kassiopeia supported Sandman’s suggestion. “But we need to burry him in the sand. It would be a symbolic gesture to punish him for trying to frame you.”

-Jrabbit was dragged to the beach. There he was forced to dig a hole in the sand and then his hands and legs were tied and he was buried alive.

*******

Over lunch everybody’s spirits were up again. Snowflake mentioned she got a PCR from rah yesterday, but she joked that with rah out of picture she was going to make it to deity in no time.
But she felt ill while she was eating the desert.
Everybody got worried but Snowflake explained it was because of the strawberries in the desert as she was allergic to them. She retired to her room, while the others ordered drinks.

Theben had Cosmopolitan, joncha ordered White Russian, Adagio had Sex on the Beach, Nikolai took Jello Shooters, Jon Miller had Agent Provocateur, Whoha ordered Mudslide and Kassiopeia had Hurricane, while the others had beer or wine.

*******

In the morning Hercules discovered Snowflake dead in her room. The sadistic killer took time with her, forcing her to eat more than a kilogram of strawberries and enjoying her allergic attack. She died in anguish.

[-Jrabbit]

A cruel and unusual demise.

And, hmmm, the top remaining poster dies again...

[Snowflake]

Mmmmm, strawberries ... Now who is this sadistic killer?

Maybe I should have voted for Sandman afterall ...

[DrSpike]

Someone self conscious of their small post count.

[rah]

At least no one can blame me for Snowflake's death.

Unless there is an Agatha Christie type plot twist.

[Snowflake]

You faked your own death!

Nah, just tell us how much you paid that sadist killer.

[-Jrabbit]

Down to 15 survivors at the Polymeet.
This round of voting will be, uh, interesting...

For the lack of something usefull in the clues, I'll just go with voting for Sandman...
