	Mafia XXV: Castle Dracula Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

My dear grandmother,

Many years ago my grandfather Jamski van Helsing traveled to the The great bleak house stands on the mountain top overlooking the village of Apolyton, and it looks, almost exactly as he described it.

A rotting tooth is indeed an apt description for the huge decaying fortress on the mountainside. Its walls are made from some kind of limestone, and against the black walls of basalt that rise around it the effect is like a skull floating in the darkness.

I plan to stay a few nights either in the village or the mansion. I feel somewhat driven by the promise I made to your father to investigate the curse he claims lies on this valley. May God standy by be if he spoke the truth, for in all honesty I have a chill feeling as I write this. It is almost as if the Castle is watching me, calling me to my doom.

With all my love, and I hope to return soon having solved this mystery.

Yours eternally

Sheepsie van Helsing Esq.

Snowflake, I didn't know that you'd taken up cross-dressing especially for this mafia game.

I'm not the mafia, and in case you are the mafia, then can I please arrange for you to kill me first.

The networks have been changed at work, and so the wallahs in Holland can now see all that we do, which makes 'poly visits a bad idea, at least for the time being. As such, I am going to have to go into 'poly hibernation for a while, popping up at weekends occasionally, until I either find a new job with nicer network gurus or can persuade the duchess to let me have broadband.

I'm losing in Nascar at the moment anyway, so my disappearance won't make any difference there, and I'm unlikely to see the next round of Gladiator either, particularly not with the "unique" orders I sent last round.

I'm not leaving, and so won't be starting another dumb thread in OT, but I will be here far less frequently than before. It's been fun, and I'll post now and again, but I really can't stay. Sorry if any of you were depending on me to play forum games.

I face similar problems DoY. I'll also try the standard solution of the proxy server when they aren't watching too hard any more. Failing that the bribery option might also get tried.

Two screams were heard in the night, but according to local tradiotns people do not leave their houses at night (too deadly to do so).

When the villagers wake up in the morning the find the Chief Jester SnowFire, and the Pig Farmer, DarkCloud, dead, drained of all their blood, two teeth marks in their necks.
