WELCOME TO TDP’s
MW/FB OVERNIGHT JOURNAL
Weekender~Aug 20
______________________________________________
Editorial
Hi Gang!
Here is another week end edition of TDP. Things are going to continue being hectic for a while and, with me finally going in for surgery (Achilles Tendon tear),well, ...It's going to be tricky (LOL).
Ok, this week we were introduced to the new Hospital and, those handy power packs. They are still being reported as glitchy but, this time it's because some players seem to be able to use 2 in sequence. Don't get your hopes up though, Zynga will get that glitch fixed very quickly (if not fixed already).
I think you will find a good assortment of story links to keep you busy for a bit. So, go for it!
Happy Hunting!
Fm Yr Friend,Bill:)
and, all your friendy staff at The Daily Post

Early Saturday morning, two campers reported that they saw a vehicle off the roadway approximately 60 to 80 feet. When deputies arrived on the scene, they discovered both truck and the couple dead inside. The crash site was in a very remote and steep area covered with thick brush, which made spotting the vehicle very difficult.
The coroner is investigating to determine the time and cause of the couple's death

LOWMAN, Idaho -- The search for a missing Meridian couple has taken a tragic turn. Boise County dispatchers have confirmed that Charles and Barbara Rigg were found dead in the area near Lowman. Deputies said they were found off of a narrow, windy road near Little Owl Summit.

- Three days ago, Zynga introduced Power Packs to the game for about 50% of the player base (1).

- Many players think that they aren't getting twice the loot this weekend as advertised by Zynga. The reason is simple, Zynga doesn't tell you how much loot you are getting while you fight. They only show you a sliding image but there are no quantities. This is a flaw of the new Fight Module and I asked about it on the forums way back in June....Source: MW Loot Lady
- Now that the stats on the loot items that drop from the Smuggler's Haven have been increased, I thought it would be worth checking out the drop rates. We already knew they sucked but I did 1,000 job run on each level of mastery. I chose the job "Help Defend The Haven From Police" because it has the best experience payout to energy cost ratio. Here are the results of each run...Source: MW Loot Lady

- This weekend will be a 2X Fight Loot extravaganza. This means nothing to a lot of players as most have been maxed on Fight Loot for a long time. Maybe it's a sign they are going to add new Fight Loot items soon. Double loot drops start now and will stop on Sunday at 11:59PM PDT. In case you miss the popup, there is a Home Page Module just for the occasion. Comments are...Source: MW Loot Lady
- Zynga just can't seem to get the exp/energy ratios for the Smuggler's Haven right. Maybe if the people who chose the ratios in the first place and those who updated them played their own game they would have said "Hey something's not right in SmellsVille". Here are the ratios along the way. OriginalSuper Cool1st NerfNot Bad2nd NerfYou SuckHere is the same data for the Ruby Level in chart form. JobOriginal Ratio1st Nerf Ratio2nd...Source: MW Loot Lady
- OMG! According to the Official Mafia Wars Blog, they are nerfing the experience/energy ratios of the Smuggler's Haven jobs once again. They call it "balance tuning" but we all know what it really is. Here is a reprint of their lame attempt to try to make us understand. One of the things that makes Mafia Wars so much fun is that it is a living, evolving game....Source: MW Loot Lady

Mobsters, it's time to ready more questions for the Mafia Wars team! At 3:30 pm PDT on Wednesday, August 24th, Ben (aka "Don Perogi") takes over for "Blue Eyed Nate" in hosting the ninth episode of Mafia Wars Live with a studio sidekick! They'll be talking about new features coming soon and answering some of the questions you post to the forum!
As always, here's where you'll want to tune in on Wednesday:http://www.ustream.tv/channel/mafia-wars-live1
Until then, we'll see you on Mafia Wars!
Stamina Packs are being upgraded - to Power Packs!* These dual-purpose packs can be used to refill your stamina OR health, depending on where you use them and what you need at the time.
To fill your stamina to 125% of your max, use a Power Pack on your Home Screen. As with Energy Packs, you can use Power Packs to refill your stamina every 8 hours:
To fill your health to 200% of your max, use a Power Pack via the newly renovated Hospital. You can use a Power Pack to refill your health every 10 minutes:
You'll also be given the opportunity to use a Power Pack whenever you try to do something for which you don't currently have enough stamina (robbing, fighting, etc.) or health (fighting, for example). When you attempt to do so, you will be prompted to use a Power Pack (or ask your mafia for them if you don't have any) or RP to refill the one you are lacking, which is indicated at the top of the prompt:
Keep your mafia in the fight by sending them some Power Packs!*
*As with all new features, we're rolling out Power Packs and the renovated Hospital to a limited number of players at first to ensure stability. We will release it to the remaining players as soon as we can.
One of the things that makes Mafia Wars so much fun is that it is a living, evolving game. We work hard to release a lot of exciting content and extensively test every feature and event prior to release, but sometimes imbalances don’t become apparent until those features are in use by millions of players. Unfortunately, the XP/energy ratios of the Smuggler’s Haven Secret District is one of those cases and we have determined that they need to be adjusted again this afternoon to preserve the balance that keeps Mafia Wars fun for everyone. The ratios will be closer to those found throughout the rest of Brazil. We want to apologize for the inconvenience, so as a consolation, we will be increasing the stats of the loot received in Smuggler’s Haven. We hope you enjoy the better loot!

In the last post I pointed out 4 big no-nos to avoid continuous beatdowns from one player stronger than you. Here are the reasons why options 2 & 3 should not be done.BULLY AVOIDANCE & PREVENTIONAsking your mafia to attack him doesn't very often accomplish retribution. Your mafia's FB access to your bully's profile only lasts 1 hour. Most of the time he is already iced when they attack. So they may win the fight but he doesn't really suffer any loss. And once they leave the screen with his link they can't get to him any more. You get only a "moral" victory and if that's all you want then you're okay. But, as with hit listing, the bully will get an update that you asked, giving him a direct-access link to your profile.
