The town fell silent as the last shovel full of dirt fell on Gil's grave. Now, there was only one option... Go out and Vegas up the night!
A large portion of the town's populace shifted to the outskirts, to a decadent location of wine, women and song. Their gracious hostess? The gorgeous Lady Lugiasian, draped in fine pearls, gems, precious metals, and several very studly men. She listened to the news with a grave face.
"If this Mafia continues killing people, it's bad for business. Less people means less money. I hope that this comes to an end before it destroys our tourism."
"Where do you get your ethics? Don't your care about life?" A disbelieving townsperson asked in a shrill tone.
"I'm a quarter Ferengi on my mother's side. She got the mouth, and I got the business sense." Loogs shot back icily.
GAME 1: The Dog Races
Lady Lugiasian clapped twice, and a group of dogs immediately assembled. She looked towards the townspeople, and smiled luxuriously.
"Here's the deal. I'm making most of my money off of advertising, so I can take a bit of a loss here." She gestured towards a basset with "Geico" tattooed across its forehead.
"State the dog you'll think'll place first, and the one you think'll place last. If you call it correctly, I'll give you Drachma depending on the dog. In addition, you may wager money on a dog to to take first or last. If you call that, you'll receive that ammount of Drachma back, multiplied by the appropriate ammount."
Rules: The course is fifty feet long. All of the dogs will move a random number of squares per round depending on what it says next to them. Dogs run until one comes in last.
Contestants:
*Greyhound: This fleet animal was bred to run.
Speed: 1d12+1 per turn.

Last: Flat Pay: 35 Multiplier: x4
*Hunting Dog: A vicious brute, more wolf than dog.
Speed: 1d6+1 per turn. If it gets a rolled result of 1, it bites the nearest dog, making that dog miss its next turn. All people that chose it get +5 drachma per mauling.

Last: Flat Pay: 25 Multiplier: x3
*Mutt: A typical dog, fairly average in ability.

Last: Flat Pay: 35 Multiplier: x4
*Lassie: A movie star of a dog, the ideal animal for anybody.
Speed: 1d20, with a 50% chance of pausing for a Photo Op. Every turn it does so, people who chose it receive 5 Drachma.
First: Flat Pay: 20 Multiplier: x3
Last: Flat Pay: 20 Multiplier: x3
*Treynor: A random loony who insists that he's a dog.

It is now dark out, and impossible to follow the flow of people through the casino-like environ. People come and go, and forboding fills the land.
All Mafia, PM me your votes.
