No, but otherwise you wouldn't have seen them, would you?

And Ras... HongHu is often mentioning grapefruit. You just need to keep "mafia records" on everyone that is likely to play

Anyway... time has expired for you...

Episode 9

Once again the Romans voted, and the priest of Jupiter, Rasputin was selected.

"Perhaps we'll finally hear what FlameFlash is trying to tell us," complained Guynemer.
"I wouldn't bet on it," snarled Rasputin.

Theben hammered a stake into the priest's heart.
"He was a vampire, right?" asked the butcher.

The others just laughed.

"Well," said FlameFlash, "Its certainly nice to be able to speak at length."

The others indicated that he should continue.

"Ummm," hesitated the priest, "You know what, I heard a poem once that Jonny might like... er... I forget... I rember how it started...ummm..."

The others sighed.

"Come back Rasputin!" cried Snowfire.
"Tantum religio potuit suadere malorum..." commented Zopperoni

Delightful Jamski. Not only are you inflicting green membership upon some of the unfortunate villagers, but they must also put up with an unpleasant internal calciferous build-up. Well, the mafia is anyway.

I don't want to try too hard to solve this, because that would spoil the fun for those still playing, but does anyone other than Jamski or Zopp know any Latin? In particular, the lines spoken by Zopp at the end of every episode? There may well be more to those than we think, if only we understood.
However, I do want this over with soon so that I can put my name down for the next game. In fact, if you are prepared to wait until Monday then I may well run the game myself. No promises just yet though.

Benjamin Franklin was also afflicted in the same way as Napoleon III.

With this post you compelled me to post in this thread again, Jamski. Of course I know what nephrolith is. It's kidney stone.

You know Jam, I used to consider joining the medical school. Instead I finished the school for computers.

He's dead anyway. I could do the next game, but I'm afraid that a weekend break would be compulsory. And I'm not going to spend each evening updating the thread and explaining who Miss Marple is to Americans without cable repeats channels.

Episode 10

As usual, someone woke up in the night, and this night it was Zopperoni that heard the wailing from the toiletia. He woke the others, and they headed off together, only tripping over a small chain and a ring in the dark, to see Guynemer writhing in agony, with all the usual symptoms, first the green penis, waved on display, then the raving as the headlice devoured his brain. Thirdly the rumbling noise from his bowels, imminent to their explosion, fourthly the nethroliths sprouting wildly from his back, this sending him into a final foaming fit, teeth clenched, and his death.

The Romans applauded a totally overdone death.

"I think I'm being s..." started FlameFlash
"Shut it!" chorused everyone together, "We know you are!"
"I was SURE we got the killer this time," said Jonny "And I started a poem that rhyme(d)"
"Sapiens nihil affirmat quod non probat," offered Zoppi, by way of warning.

Zopp said

A wise man states as true nothing he does not prove (don't swear to anything
you don't know firsthand)

To which I say

Cave cibum, valde malus est

A small chain and a ring. What does that tell us?

Something tethered? A slave, a horse? costume jewelry? A roman into SM- so what else is new.

Ras: And while voting for you about 3 times before, I didn't vote for you the last time, no?

Okay, we've got a smart mafia, since most of the unlikely suspects are dead.

1. Zopperoni Slave Alive
Very possible. Slaves were messing with food, after all, and he has a ready made motive. Been kinda posting under the radar.

2. Theben Butcher Alive
This weird style of murder just might fit Theben. Plus knows how to season food.

4. Snowfire Aspiring Gladiator Alive
Is a gladiator, like Dr. Spike. But innocent, 'cause Jam didn't send me a message. Also due to the fact that I wouldn't be a lazy mafia.

8. Kassiopeia Slave Dealer Alive
See Theben. May enjoy killing in bizarre ways.

9. DrSpike Champion Gladiator Alive
If the stuff people tripped over really was evidence and Dr. Spike was dumb enough to leave it lying around the place he knew his poisoned victims would stop by (not even the murder site)... well, it makes no sense, but that didn't stop me from voting for him last round.

Speaking of which, if it really is poison, can't we all, you know, go live on the land for awhile? Become hearty Roman hunter-gatherers?

12. Jonny Poet Alive
Hasn't posted much. We know that the Mafia is lazy.

18. FlameFlash Saturnine Pontifex Alive
The "cursing" theory which made Ras look suspicious might work on him as well.

21. Hercules Strongman Alive
Um, no particular reason to suspect Hercules so far.

23. Tuberski Chariot Racer Alive
Somebody said that the stuff tripped over might be a chariot racer's stuff.

People who are most likely innocent since they posted in the thread on page 8 when the mafia was being slow with the kill orders:
SnowFire
Hercules
FlameFlash
Tuberski
Kassiopeia

Unless of course they were being devilishly clever and posting while holding off sending Jam a PM. Or perhaps "annoying for slowing down the game," but whatever.
