				Because I think we really need one.<br><br>So I would like to start off by saying I really like this game. <br><br>This is for all players and future players to talk and arrange dances/progress story etc etc.<br><br>Lap dances and blow jobs are great but I like drama and action also.

				As far as the cop portion, I'm either having posts deleted or forgetting to hit enter. Probably the hitting enter one.&nbsp; Either way, I haven't said much. In the original thread, however, I indicated I was new to the beat and not yet on the payroll. As such, I'm on my way to investigate the room with the blocked camera.<br><br>I think private rooms, while having their own threads, are still part of the main story. So cameras and possible interruptions are not completely unprecedented. It builds the story portion after all. Getting a hotel room restricts those things, but as has happened, causes drama in the main building.

				No plots yet (Since we have not even got past the first night) but I do want to add a little story. <br>For my character, I wan to take over the town. Giving the story a bit of a drama touch to it, maybe even have a falling out with the South Boston Manager, since he keeps recording him in the booth. <br><br>As I said earlier lap dances and blowjobs are cool but I want a little story to go along with it as well. <br><br>Also has anyone seen Carl around?

				Well, Aidens character wants to take control over the town (Mayor I assume?). My character has the power, resources, and money to enable that. Of course, it comes at a Price. My character wants to expand his influence (having the Mayor in pocket would help with this) and perhaps use the Strip Club as a front-office type of place, making his 'dirty money' legit.<br><br>Just an idea.

				Depends on how you look at each group. You could make the argument that the Mafia is more powerful then the Cartels (family loyalty, hundreds of years of history, etc) while Cartels are basically glorified gangs that have gotten rich on drug money (basics, here, of course). Perhaps the backing of the Mafia, who has some 'connections', would ensure election as Mayor? Of course, if the Mayor was connected to a Cartel, that wouldn't look so good (hello FBI?) so maybe the Cartel has to give up some 'districts' to the Mafia (who trades in more then just Drugs) while upholding a cease-fire type of agreement? Helping each other out, in the end. "I keep your secret, you keep mine, and everybody stays happy."

				That could work too. The Cartel imports it (I assume South/Central American relations there) while the Mafia distributes it (and eliminate all traces to the 'Mayor') amongst other things they do. They get the 'ear' of the Mayor while helping put him in power (the 'money' comes in the form of donations to his campaign, making it look legit).

				Who would have guessed it was that simple...now we need to find a way to get this new plot into the story...maybe after the first night they meet at the club (After removing the bugs) unless a south bostainain wants to be found hung upside down and carved into fillets.

				Well, my character is known as 'The Devil of Levanto' for some of the things he reportedly did in Italia, so why not have him arrive on the scene in a big way? Perhaps the man is a mid-level character in the Cartels realm (maybe the head of a 'district') so killing him in such a manner says some one big has come to play?<br><br>EDIT: The Mafia presence of course would cause alarm, and make the 'mayor' want to head to the meeting table rather then engage in a war against some one who has done so before (with great success) once the rumors mills start pulling up information on him.

				I wonder if we can expand this game now and add a few more key roles<br><br>Such as the Mayor<br>DA (maybe)<br>I think we have a police chief...<br>An FBI/ATF agent <br>The GM CarlCC might need help, maybe add a GM to keep things in check or the Rpers can approve/disapprove of any thing involving a character.

				The Mafia would see it as a place where a few things can happen:<br><br>Meetings. The loud noise etc would prevent them from being wire tapped. So would naked girls (can't hide a mike on a naked girl) not to mention the level of comfort in a dark place, and the shady business that goes on there too.<br><br>Drugs. Also makes a good place to sell drugs. Lots of clients, Mafia/Cartel based security (aka no cops), etc. <br><br>Money. Turns drug-money legit, 'buying' drinks, tips to the strippers, 'champagne', etc. <br><br>Criminals. Scum get drawn to such places, so it helps keep an eye on them. Lots of information to be had too, including using the Strippers to get it.

				The Strippers would also receive a small sum of additional money, from what they can sell and for keeping quiet. Perhaps it also turns into a prostitution ring in the club? In the special, VIP members where people of importance are 'treated' (aka bribed).

				so basically the plot will be that the mafia is going to use the mayors addiction to VIP clubs to black mail him into the drug world. and the mayor not being very clean him self ? how you become mayor by the way??.<br>we need a good cop who want to do good and bust the mayor in front of the world. and will try to gain info on the hidden drug business.cop or detective?
