Hi Gang!

Here we are again at the beginning of another cycle for the Daily Post. We plan to bring you much more video training pieces and, a brand new podcast starring Scrappy coming out by the end of the week. Our own Five minute Mafia Show should be ready by the end of next week and, a brand new initiative to get us interacting with as many of you as possible.

As you may already know, I was invited to the PAC but, sent someone else instead due to my heavy schedule. Therefore, though I completely support any effort to truly REPRESENT the needs of the majority The Daily Post will not stop pointing out your comments and advocating for your rights as players. We will continue with our plans to gather as much of your input and, we will make sure it gets to where ever it needs to get so that you get some action. Since we never signed an agreement with Zynga and, since the person that did is no longer at the Post, we are not hindered by the non circumvent non disclose agreements signed by all members of the PAC. I say again to you:

The Daily Post is beholden to no one but it's readership!

Use us to ask questions no one else will, use us to announce your open events and conflicts. Let us know if you are being bullied or if you aren't sure if you yourself are acting as a bully. We are NOT a part of ZYNGA but, we are a part of you.So, we may not be able to get your account back or, get a bully of your back but, we will give your every tool we can to get you through your issues. We are a bona fide media organization . We have used our contacts before to help in certain general (non MW related) items going as far as contacting other media, law enforcement and, are currently trying to get an appointment with Fla Congresswoman Debbie Waserman Schultz. As you may already know, the Congresswoman now leads the Congressional Caucus for Electronic Gaming Fairness. This new body of Congressmen and women will begin to intervene at a federal level on behalf of the everyday gamer. So, perhaps we will not be able to fix everything we would like here but, we sure will try to get involved with the people at the top of this mountain. And, we do this proudly representing our fellow gamers and, our dedicated readership. Stay tuned in, remember that getting organized to deal with giants takes a very long time when there are so many wishing to voice their concerns. But, we have a plan and, it is slowly moving forward as we learn who and what we can count on to help us along the way,... one hard lesson at a time.

Honor and Respect to all of you,

Fm yr Friend,

Bill;)

Apology

Yesterday I posted about the hitlist. To verify everything, I placed myself on the hitlist from my energy account and documented my ride. I didn't think to cover up the players who attacked me as it shows they are strong. A very nice guy named John, aka [SCF] YARKO SMOKA was the one who did most of the damage to me while I was on the hitlist....

The Hurt Feelings Report

Even though our game of choice is called Mafia Wars, many players get very emotional and upset when they are attacked, robbed or a war is declared on them. To accommodate this group of players and to help take the burden off of Customer Support, Zynga has created a Hurt Feelings Report....

Old Gift Links: Expired

It looks like all those older gift links will no longer work. Many players are getting the message that "This gift has expired" when attempting to open gift links form the past. Aurélia sent the following image to me from a gift that was one month old. For those of you...
