Save Mafia Wars

Save Mafia Wars

This petition have been floating around my News Feeds since yesterday. It seems that Zynga is trying to kill Mafia Wars, and just yesterday, Zynga changed the way healing works.
Rumor is that Zynga's next move is aimed to put an end to programs and scripts that have been part of the game since the beginning.


By signing in the petition, we want Zynga to:

1. Restore the heal timer to its original configuration
2. Work with the script authors to modify the terms of service to allow 3rd party tools and set reasonable limits to the actions these tools can perform.

Incognito Gift Mastery Event = More Unhappiness For MW

Incognito Gift Mastery Event

The Incognito Gift Mastery Event is here. FInd it on your Home Page.

All the information can be found by clicking the help mark from the banner shown above.

The three gifts we will be sending and accepting are also boots. You get 5 boosts per gift.

Briefcase Gun

+130 Attack Skill

Good Word

+130 Defense Skill

Toe Jammers

+150% of robbing your next property successfully 

The Mastery Items for each gift are shown below.

The first gift, the Briefcase Gun, is unlocked now and can be found on the Free Gift Page. You need to look towards the bottom to see it.

To save time and not have to deal with the Free Gift Page, bookmark the link below and it will take you directly to the send page. The more gifts you send, the more you will get in return. You can send 50 at a time and can send each member of your mafia one gift per day. If you keep reading, you will see this was a waste of time as there is a nice nerf coming up.

Soon after the event started, I had a ZMC full of Briefcase Guns.

Here is the problem. There is a limit of how many gifts you can accept per day. 10 is the maximum so nobody will be finishing this event anytime soon (unless you spend Reward Points). Briefcase Guns convert to Blue Mystery Bags once you hit your limit of 10 (rant found in the next paragraph).

This is as far as I could go for the day without using Reward Points. This is really annoying because everybody is sending these gifts out like crazy. It's bad enough they totally changed gifting and now they are going to impose daily limits! We have never seen this in a gifting event and it's total bullshit. Now all those gifts will go to waste as you can't save them due to the 100 gift limit in the ZMC.

There is always the option to buy a gift using Reward Points. Don't be fooled by the message. You will not gain mastery for 3 Reward Points. Each gift costs 3 Reward Points, if you buy enough of them you can buy mastery.

To master the bronze level, you need to accept 4 gifts, silver 8 and 16 for gold . Collect your mastery item from the Home Page.

I purchased the last two needed to master the silver level so we would know how many gifts are needed for the gold level.

You can get extra items from your new feeds. You can find bonus Incognito gifts when doing jobs or fights. You want to share there as you and your mafia can get extra gifts that won't apply to the daily limit of 10. Unfortunately those are limited to 3 per day.

You can also ask for gifts from the Home Page but this is just a ruse to get you to spam. When your mafia click on the posts to help, it directs them to the free gift send page.

The mastery item is a Businessman and the stats increase with each level. Like all Gift Mastery Events, you only get one item. As you progress in mastery, the stats change.

Gold Popup Image Pending

The next gift will unlock in a little over three and a half days. I'm not sure if we will be able to repeat the event as in the past but it there are limits it will be difficult if not impossible.

The Don Can Go F***in Hungry!! And So Can Zynga!!

Thank God This Event Is Winding Down. This Event Has Made Me Nearly Give 2 Shits About Mafia Wars Anymore. Why? Because Zynga Is About The Dumbest Bunch Of Fuckheads For Even Letting An Event Like This To Be Released In The First Place. JMO. 

You Can See In The Picture Below Exactly How Many Turkeys, Turkey Protections, And Butlers I Have.

A Big Fat 0 Of All 3. Wow, Great, I Am Over Joyed As To The Results Of This Event. 

Unlike Many Players Who Break Nearly Every Single Zynga Terms Of Service,

I Have A Single Account And Therefore Had NO Chance Of Doing Well In This Event. As You Can See In The Following Picture (found on MWLootLady Blog) This Individual Has 494 Ruby Level Butler's. Did This Person Really Purchase Enough Turkeys To Have This Many? Not Likely!

This Kind Of Event And Outcome Is Supposed To Do What For the Players Of Mafia Wars? Drive The DAU Even Lower?

Zynga's Answers Are Coming Through Loud And Clear. Every Event They Do Is Designed To Squeeze Every Dime They Can Out Of Mafia Wars Because They Will Likely Be Shutting The Game Down Soon. That Is, As Soon As Enough Of Us Give Up With The Zyantics Of Mafia Wars.  

Now Get Ready For More Spamming Events And Other Things That You, The Average Player, Won't Be Able To Complete While The 'Elite' Will Have Completed Within An Hour Of It's Release. 

Ice The Family Boss Fight - Ice Queen

 

Possibly One Of The Next 2 Family Bosses That We'll Get To Fight Is The Ice Queen. Yes, She Does Look A Bit Cold. 

Another Boss That Was Introduced (But Not Yet Released) Was Dr. Sarah Swift. On November 17th A Post Was Made Here Introducing Dr. Swift Dr Sarah Swift. 

 

While Most Of Us Who Love And Enjoy Mafia Wars Patiently Await The New Releases Of These Bosses, Among Other Events etc., Mafia Wars loot Lady Has Leaked Information Regarding A Lucky Few Who Have Already Received The Grand Prizes For Beating These Unreleased Bosses. You Can Find Out More Here On MWLootLady's Blog.

I Am Sorry, If This Is True Then It Further Alienates The Majority Of The Truly Loyal Mafia Wars Fans Who Play This Game. These Select Few Easily Acquire What The Rest Of Us Can't Get No Matter How Hard We Try. Zynga Is Certainly Leaving Too Many Of Us Cold And Disenfranchised From Mafia Wars. 

Since Zynga Has Applied With The SEC For An IPO I Do Not Believe These Practices Will Help Their Stock Prices Once They Make To The Exchanges. I Most Certainly Will Not Recommend Any Purchases Of Any Shares Of Zynga's Stocks Upon Their Release For The Simple Fact That Those Shares Will Likely Tumble As The Game Mafia Wars Is In The Midst Of.

Chasing Turkeys

WHO'S CHASING TURKEYS?

Save The Don's Dinner Has Been One Of (If Not) The Worst Mafia Wars Events Ever. 

As You Can See In The Picture Above, The Clock Is Running Down On The 'Save Don's Dinner' Event And I Have No Turkeys. This Is Pretty Much How It Has Been Since The Event Began. Like Many Of You, I Have Pretty Much Given Up On Trying To Collect Any Turkeys Because As Soon As I Collect Them They Are Gone From My Inventory. 

Even My Turkey Vision Was A Bust And I Never Got To Utilize My Free 5 Minutes Of It And E-Mail To Support Never Got It Reset. 

As I Predicted On November 23 In The Post Titled  Zynga Defeating Itself In Mafia Wars The DAU Has Dropped More. 

The DAU Is Now Hovering Around 620,000 Daily Users. 

This Event Has Also Inspired Other Bloggers To Make Similar Posts (like here on MWLootLady Turkeys Are For Bullies). 

This Is All Why Many Players Are Saying;

To Mafia Wars. 

And For You People Who Are Telling Those Who Aren't Happy With The Way Things Are Here In Mafia Wars To Go Play Farmville; Let Me Tell You That Farmville Is Out Performing Mafia Wars In A Huge Way In The Facebook App Data Stats. As Is Castleville. 

Mafia Wars Is Falling Off The Charts So I'd Be Careful About Who You Tell To Go Play What Because They Just Might Do It And Leave You Cold And Lonely In A Dying Game!
