Mafia Plot: A Rough Compiling of Everything so Far
Okay so in the interest of A) getting everyone on the same page B) catching people up who may be lurking C) explaining what the hell I'm babbling about, what follows are all related posts, fics, chat logs etc. for the unter_allen mafia universe.
To give a breif outline of the plot, I will start at the end. The end is Tony Stark and Altair getting arrested. What leads up to that is a one sided power struggle on Lucifer's behalf combined with the police attempts to arrest the highest level of mafia members for good. Everything else is to be played out. What gets interesting are the characters and how they all relate.

Now, looking at everything, I think we've learned a great deal of things from this experience. Here are my thoughts, I invite you to write your own or respond to mine. Involved or not. From where I sit, I got the following from the event: A) If we're going to do a serious plot line we need everyone to be involved, B) We really should only go for a week, week and a half tops or take it elsewhere, C) Certain things shouldn't be threaded, but instead done in fic or log form (tangently connected to B), D) Log form, especially using MSN in real time, is a very valid and enjoyable means of moving plot along and E) Maybe next time plot shouldn't be *quite* so complex
