"The duel's over, big fella. Stop trying to cause a riot or I'll have to throw you in jail."
Jonah looks the man over, taking note of his badge, then spits on the ground to one side with a derisive scowl.
"Seems ta me like you ain't much'f a lawman, lettin' yer people be exposed to such depravity," he says, hooking his thumbs through his belt and glancing about the crowd briefly, checking that they can hear him before continuing, "Ain't you s'posed to protect folks? Keep 'em safe from scum such as what we're dealing with here? I'm startin' ta think the fella greased your palm nicely before he opened the place.
Is that it, 'lawman'?"


Make one last attempt to get the crowd riled up, casting doubts as to the lawman's care for their wellbeing, suggest that perhaps he accepted bribes to keep them from torching the place. Speak in a raised voice, preferably not a shout but loud enough that the crowd can hear me.

If that fails to incite any further excitement, give up and head to the saloon.

Hm. Inspect the arrows. Do they carry any peculiarities? Any tribal identifications? What are they made of, and what is the quality of their make?

If there are no conclusive results, get back to New Jamestown. See if I can't enter the poker tournament. If yes, play normally, utilizing my general ability to keep up a pleasant, unruffled demeanor to give me an advantage in the game.

Blood Opal Smirks. The wonderful thing about this country was that now matter how peaceful and boring times got, you could always find a stiff drink and a bar fight when you needed one. In this case, the smaller fighter was more interesting than the bigger one, he had picked the fight, and in all likelihood he was motivated by some combination of simple greed and drunken bravado. She could work with that.

She aproaches the bartender with a wide smile and a soft voice. "I have two dollars that say you end the fight early if it looks like the big guy is winning..."

"Amigos, let's have a fair game here. After all it's just fun."

I say it as a way of throwing off my competition. I will use all the tricks in the book instead. (play aggressive)

Join the poker tournament. Be agressive.

Jim smiles at the rabble rouser.

"I guess you haven't been in town long, big fella. I don't have opinions. I don't take bribes. I do enforce the law. The law that says running a brothel is not illegal, while inciting a riot is. Do you understand me?"

After the conversation is over, Jim walks over to the saloon, shooting Blood Opal a suspicious look, and notices the bar fight. He then walks over to the bartender, ordering a drink, and watches the fight.

"You want me to put a stop to this?"

Jim also signs up for the poker tournament, although he's a bit rusty, so he decides to play a standard game of poker.

Carter will try to negotiate the rental fee down, with promise of more lucrative business in the future. If the bartender doesn't agree to better terms, he won't spend too much time trying to convince him, spending more time trying to advertise the tournament.

Also, if I understand the terms correctly after a bit of Googling, I think the Small and Large Blind should be 1 and 2 poker chips, respectively.

How many chips will each player get to start with? 10? 20? 50?

Are you cheating? Because that changes your playstyle.

enjoy the celebration for a short while whilst trying to find recruits and other benefits (cash, free drinks)of being hailed a champion, then either find someone willing to lend me a room for the night or find an inn, or sleep in a barrel or something if neither is available. The next morning, head out to the Homesteads to see what kind of place it is and who lives there.

Edit:I guess I'll hold off on sleeping until the last turn of night then.

Next turn is Night, which lasts for 4-5 turns, depending on everyone's general pace. So it might be a bit before morning.
