The new Mafia Wars limited time job, The Last Score of 2009. As advertised, there will be 3 different jobs you will have to choose between.

Each time you do a job, you get a little bit of job mastery. I am assuming there will be a nice item available once you reach 100% mastery.

After you do a job one time, you will be locked out either 5 minutes, 4 hours, or 8 hours, depending on which job you picked. After that time has passed, you can collect your reward and choose a different job. Read the rest of this entry

Thanksgiving is a special event at Zynga and they have once again spread the spirit to Mafia Wars. From 12:01 am, Thursday, November 26th through Monday, November 30th at 11:59 pm all jobs and fights have a chance to drop holiday themed items.

Here is a quick list of the items along with their stats.

Weapons

Stuffed Turkey: 19 attack, 25 defense

Mashed Potatoes: 24 attack, 21 defense

Pea Shooter: 26 attack, 12 defense

Cooked Goose: 15 attack, 27 defense

Electric Carving Knife: 34 attack, 10 defense

Armor

Lucky Wishbone: 16 attack, 36 defense

Food Coma: 20 attack, 42 defense

Vchicles:

Gravy Boat: 40 attack, 24 defense

Out of all of these I think that the Food Coma is hilarious. How many times have you eaten Thanksgiving dinner and everyone rushes to the living room to watch football and are sound asleep before the first quarter is over? It was always that way as I grew up and the tradition of “Food Coma” is alive and well still in my family. Oh well I guess that the condition saves us from the boring games that are the usual fare of the Thanksgiving celebration.

Additionally, even if you already have everything, you can get 2 free reward points associated with the event. Every time you get an item you can publish it for your friends to get 2 free reward points.

Yes, the American holiday of Thanksgiving has already arrived in Mafia Wars. While it may not be a four-course meal at your parent’s house with all the fixings, players of the Facebook game can now give Thanksgiving gifts to their mafia. From weapons (Turkey Silencers, Potato Masher or Tomahawk) to a defensive Pigskin Helmet to a Parade Balloon in the shape of a smoking mob boss, there’s something that will fit the tastes of everyone in your mafia.

There are five new Thanksgiving-themed free gifts available for Mafia Wars. Here is the loot list:

Weapons:

Turkey Silence (28 attack, 13 defense)
Tomahawk (23 attack, 19 defense)
Potato Masher (26 attack, 17 defense)

Armor:

Pigskin Helmet (18 attack, 24 defense)

Vehicle:

Parade Balloon (14 attack, 28 defense)

Double mastery and double loot in New York, starting this weekend and running through the 22nd. What this means for you is if you’re still working on mastering the levels in New York, you’ll have the opportunity to finish much quicker than usual. This is also a great time to collect loot such as those untraceable cell phone and blackmail photos .
