Even The Mob Celebrates Christmas

Mafioso might all seem to be big tough shoot first ask questions later type of people but they do celebrate Christmas. Sometimes I imagine what a mafia member might get their family. I picture t-shirts with catchy sayings. Some of these might fit the bill.

  • Mafioso Morgue – We Stab em Then We Slab em
  • Carmine’s BBQ – Grill em Then Kill em
  • Anthony’s Cleaning Service – Let Us Handle Your Dirty Work
  • Mikie’s Dry Cleaning – We Launder Anything
  • Who’s Yer Godfadda?

Zynga is in on the Yuletide season as usual and is holding a holiday event through January, 3rd, 2010. During this time they have made special Christmas gifts available for you to put under your mafia’s tree.

The Safe House

The Safe House is another Christmas feature but it should not be confused with the free gifts listed above. In order to get gifts from the Safe House you need to click on the “ask for more gifts” button and select as many of your mafia as possible each day.

In order to ensure that you get as many gifts as possible you should select members of your mafia that you know are active players. Daily players are your best of course. Make sure that you return the favor when your mafia members request gifts from you too.

The gifts that you receive are completely random but I am told that the items are some of the best yet in Mafia Wars. You can open your gifts early but it will cost you Godfather Points. Best wait until Christmas Day.

Limited Time Job

You will also have access to a holiday limited time job called “Bring the Family Together.” Completing this job results in special holiday gifts and is a multi step process once again giving you the chance to get you hands on some hard to get loot.

In Mafia Wars Christmas Is A Time for Giving

All around the world the Christmas season has traditionally a time of giving. Some give to “Da Family” and others give to friends and acquaintances, but there are some who choose to give to charities to help those who are not as privileged as they are.

This Yuletide Season Zynga has chosen a charity and asked that the members of Mafia Wars help. The charity that they have chosen is called FATEM and is based in Mirebalais, Haiti. The group is dedicated to bringing information technology to the people of Haiti which will help with economic advancement in the area. The group also supports the general education of Haitian children and ensures that these children receive meals that will help them grow and learn.

For you contribution Zynga has chosen to offer a special Limited Edition item that you can use in Mafia Wars at the cost of 25 Godfather Points.

Haitian Drum – 44 Attack – 46 Defense

As Mafia Wars players I can guarantee that none of us know what it is like to go without a meal or live in live in the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Haiti is the 7th poorest nation in the world and we have the chance to help Zynga bring needed food and technology to the country.

The cost of the item is 25 Reward Points. Many of us have that many saved up from leveling but using these points will not help the people of Haiti. You can purchase 42 reward points for a measly $7.00, less than most of us pay for a fast food meal. If you can afford it please invest in the future of another country.

Help Zynga change the lives of the children of Haiti if you can.

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.

last-score-of-2009

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

Repeatedly being robbed in Mafia Wars?

Robbing someone in Mafia Wars can be fun and of course happens often. However, it is not so great when you are on the receiving end and very annoying having to pay out for repairs. Then to add insult to injury your property income will be less until you have paid out for the entire repair.  So, I have put together a few tips that will help you to hopefully not get robbed as often or never again.

Get the target off your back or you will be robbed in Mafia Wars!

The number one and easiest thing to help you stop being a target for robbing in Mafia Wars is to make sure you have enough family members. You definitely need at least as many family members as the level you are currently on. For example if you are on level 30 then you must have at least 30 family members. Robbers check the list for players on higher levels than their family count.

Don’t do unto others….Do not rob other Mafia Wars Players.

Simple – If you start robbing people, they will most likely rob you back! Read the rest of this entry

Mafia Wars Tips-Complete Armor List

Armor is used by the player for job prerequisites and in heists, war, hitlisting, and fights with other players or bosses. Each piece of armor has an attack and defense rating for whichever the player is currently doing. The higher these ratings, the better the chance of victory. When fighting, a player can utilize 1 piece of armor for as many people are currently in their mafia – up to a maximum of 501.

This page contains the list of Armor available in Mafia Wars. There are no statistics here: just links. Read the rest of this entry
