Freebies!

Looks like the Zynga Inc. Fan Page is getting in on the free point action as well. Today we are supposed to get one free attack point from this page. The post was made 2 hours ago but I also noticed this promo happened on Jan 11th as well. Hopefully it wasn't a mistake and at some point we can get an Attack Point. The link didn't work for me so I suggest that...

Are you ready for some football??? Looks like it's going to be between the Wisconsin Cheddarheads and the Pennsylvania Ironworkers...which will you chose? I guess this is the Zynga Stuperbowl event. I guess I'll get this piece written so I can go off and start collecting those helmets...
It looks to me like Zynga's actually starting to show they have a little heart with their new Valentine's promotion. Either that or they're just tired of people still complaining about the Fight Club energy refill. I rather enjoy the little bonus that I get with the eight hour energy refill. There's a definate advantage to it and if I play my strategy right, I'm sure I can get some good use out of it as well as the higher priced Fight Club refill. Either way, I'm looking forward to taking advantage of that little tidbit of "love" for as long as it lasts.
I'm sure you've noticed the new promotional items in the marketplace representing the Universal Studio's movie Fast & Furious. Dom's Supercharge looks really nice. I could actually see myself driving a car like that down these winding country roads. Maybe I could hop in it and take a ride to the zoo where I can use all that fresh meat to build a leopard. To be honest, I'm still trying to figure out what exactly animals have to do with the mafia. But, I guess someone somewhere must have a reason for it.
As far as my pursuit of bullies goes, things seem to have calmed down considerably, but I hear tell that my buddy Monad is still on the loose. There are several groups that are keeping his link handy should he start getting out of hand and those that have contacted me are still keeping all the information they can as evidence of his actions. I still haven't received a written apology to me for the words he used to reference me in his chat conversation.
I know there are others out there who like to use their virtual strength to do what they can to prevent others from enjoying the regular play of their game. Joni and her crew are still busy keeping on top of our Bully Re-Training page. If you feel that you're still being mistreated or bullied by any particular player be sure to contact her with the information so that she may take the necessary measures to assist you in putting an end to their attacks whether verbal or virtual. We may not be very powerful by ourselves, but together with the effort and cooperation of you, the gamers, we can prevent these people from continuing their unethical measures and to help keep fair game play within the Community.
As you may have noticed, we're making considerable progress at perfecting our layout and delivery system for The Daily Post. We have been getting quite a bit of positive feedback for the new look that we've implemented. Be sure to keep an eye out for our new online store where we'll be offering a variety of items that we hope you find appealing. We're always interested in hearing more of what you would like to see offered within the content of our publication. Feel free to drop us a line or post a comment to let us know what you think.
In the near future I'll be also offering specialized gift baskets that are made specifically to suit your individual needs. These will be based on your requirements or event. The cost and content will vary dependant on your theme.
So many changes, so many new friends...It looks like we're well on our way to making 2011 a great year for everyone. Thank you, again, for your continuous support to our staff and cause. Cheers to you all!

To make it easy to buy Facebook Credits we support several different credit cards, fifteen currencies, mobile payments, and now, PayPal.

JONI'S TWO BITS
Joni Kinney, Assistant Managing Editor

The mafia world has grown and changed a lot over the past couple of years… So here’s an ode to the old…
I remember when…

1) NY money meant something

2) We hated Untraceable Cell Phones and begged each other for them

3) Everyone still needed some collection items4) Some of us had Rackets

5) If you had 100 health you would rarely be iced

6) Robbing allowed you to bring your level of people to the fight

7) Robbing didn’t drop loot

8) Getting to 1,000 ices was a huge accomplishment

9) Stamina skill points cost 2 skill points each

10) We used to think that if we just maxed out on Track Loaders we would be at the top of our game

11) Lotto pieces traded for Guerrilla squads

12) We had a hard time collecting Politico Corruptos

13) Animals were in Farmville only

14) No one heard of building parts

15) If you wanted to play the lotto; you went to the corner store

What do you remember?

AMOST, BUT NOT ALWAYS... WHY IZZA 'DAT?Wired Telegraph from Da Scrappy Chihuahua (he can afford it) to Zynga.
'Ey Zynga! Almost, but not always, my Top Mafia Wheeldog bonus of no energy used on jobs and Mastermind bonus of 50% more points show up just after I've leveled up when I really don't need them. At critical points when I'm close to leveling but don't have enough Energy or Stamina to gain the points they get very scarce. If I have just enough energy to level, these bonuses rain down like cats and dogs...http://www.facebook.com/note.php?created&&note_id=49472766612

Two days ago, Mike told you all about a mysterious loot item dropping as a robbery bonus called the Love Tap(1). We still don't know all the details of this item as nothing has been said about it being a holiday item or if it is a permanent robbing bonus. If you go to the Mafia Wars Wiki Love Tap Page, there is a disclaimer that the origin of the item is "Subject...

If you go to your Inventory Page and look for those elusive Love Taps that you just blew thousands of stamina to get, they won't be there. Article written by Jennifer Patterson, Creator of the MW Loot Lady Blog, The Mafia Wars Loot Lady Facebook Fan Page and Co-Host of The Informant Podcast....
There is a special limited time Mission. Check you Home Page to find it. I'll update here when I finish it. Here is a peak at the first part. This one may be worth doing as the grand prize is a weapon with stats of 140/73.

Sorry but it's true, we will be having another gifting event starting tonight in honor of the Super Bowl. To learn all about it got to the Zynga Customer Support The Big Game Gift Event 411 and FAQ. Thanks to Luis Enrique for posting the info on the Mafia Wars Loot Lady Fan Page. Mafia Wars The Big Game mini-Gift Event 411 Are you ready for some (American) Football?...
Update:

The Mafia Wars version of the Super Bowl is here in the form of a gifting event. The NFL calls it the Super Bowl, Zynga calls in the Big Game Faceoff. The NFL calls the two teams the Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers, Zynga calls them the Wisconsin Chedderheads and the Pennsylvania Ironworkers....

In case you didn't have enough to spend your energy on, Zynga has decided that this would be the perfect time to release a new chapter in Atlantic City. Chapter 4 is called Camden County and will unlock once you master Chapter 3 on the Bronze Level. Like the chapters b...
It looks like Zynga didn't like players adding their 2 new animals to their wishlists. As of tonight, both animals are no longer giftable. BeforeAfterBeforeAfterGiftability was the main reason that the Raw Meat nerf wasn't a big deal. Why would anyone craft the Amur Leopard from the Private Zoo? No skill points are given so it was concluded that collecting Raw Meat building items weren't needed....
Another set of Release Notes was posted on the The Official Mafia Wars Blog. Looks like they are keeping up with themselves. Now if we could just get a link in the game to the blog or have the Release Notes posting in the game as well. Things are looking a little outdated in game....
Cerulean Master, Super Moderator, posted an interesting post titled Forum Chat: Questions and Answers. On Feb 4th (tomorrow) at 2 PM, PST there will be a chat session on forum boards. There will be developers and "big guns" present. To participate go HERE and ask your question. Players will get to ask one question and are asked to follow the Rules of Conduct....
