It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Probably a little of both. I'm on the same timezone so I shouldn't be up either. But it's a weekend so I don't really care, though my body seems a bit exhausted. I'll go to sleep if there's nothing new in 7 minutes.

It's been a day, the forum got buried, no new votes. PROGRESS!!

You thank Alice for listening to your troubles then go to cool your head in the freezer of her fancy refrigerator, wait. You notice several things someone of her salary would normally never be able to afford. You ask her about it, and you see her turn pale for a few seconds. She explains to you that she is a member of the most well respected mafia in the state, she asks if you want to get back at the company and your fiance, without thinking you agree. She says within the week the company will be gone and done for with her help. And, well... let's just say the man we saw that day won't be seeing your fiance again.

1 week later
Alice informs you that the old company discovered the mafia was involved in their collapse and tells you to grab a gun from her weapons cabinet, you see several guns that interest you, but a man of your experience shouldn't be handling anything above a pistol. Alice hands you a silencer and tells you to practice some in her underground shooting range. What did you focus on most?

Alright guys, we can now pick starting skills, the introduction is over, and we have our first mission. I'll put the skill choices under a spoiler

Spoiler: Starting skills (click to show/hide)

Main focus adds 5 points to a skill
Some focus adds 4
Dabbling adds 2

Main focus: ?
Some focus: ?
Dabbling in 1: ?
Dabbling in 2: ?

[EDIT] I totally keep forgetting to mention that the maximum you can reach in any skill is 50.0

That skill choice makes you highly inaccurate, but you can reload like a beast, talk your way out of anything, and you can stab people like there's no tomorrow.

We have minions for muscle, but smooth reloading can be rather intimidating.

We have zero minions right now. And rather than minions they'll be separated as independent allies(Alice in this case) and your workers. Intimidation only works on civis that don't know anything about guns. The first mission is coming up after this, and you'll want more accuracy right now.
The ladies man skill is what you'll need to a woo any of the women you know, since you seemed confused about that Xanatos.

I don't want to use a veto yet, but if there is one more vote for reloading as a secondary I will. That starts with an automatic FIVE! that's as high as your primary, you reload pretty fast right now, you don't need more of it.
One more vote for negotiation will make that our primary focus.

I'll go with omaga. We can hit a range later if we aim THAT badly.

You're a civi being introduced to the business of the mafia, this is the VERY first time you've ever handled a gun, and this is the only chance to get 2-5 FREE levels of it. Shooting ranges cost money in this game, do you really want to spend your first bit of cash on something that time consuming?

Can't we just talk and/or fake our way through everything?

We could be FREED MATTHEWS, HERO OF THE MAFIA.

We HAVE to kill at LEAST five people in the first mission with the gun we chose, Freed isn't hardened enough to kill execution style yet. Faking our way through everything will also give us extremely low respect.

I'll post up the two most common builds, and two of my own imagination.
Just say which one you want to vote for(A, B, C, or D), and I'll tally it up.

Spoiler: builds (click to show/hide)

I'll post up the mission in the next update if a decision isn't reached by then. I won't post the kills until a decision is reached.
You may have noticed that Build C and Build D are kind of similar, but Build D is more about killing than Build C is.

I think build A would be good.

well, not so much stupid as "why would a guy be called Alice?".
WIZARD was probably the stupidest of the 4.
