A Few Tips & Rules For Playing MAFIA WARS

Just a few TIPS AND RULES to help in Mafia Wars Gaming. Our Goal is with these Tips will to help you become a more Knowledgeable & Efficient MW player. Most of you may already know this information...

1) All Energy Gaming ~ THE GAME ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE. Don't be in such a hurry to level up just so you can be abused by some A$$ who has a HIGH Attack and Defense power....

2) BANK YOUR MONEY ~ always BANK MONEY 'before attacks', and 'after attacks' & in between healing your MW character when money has been won. Therefor if you get attacked back you don't lose anything you have gained!

3) HEAL In New York! ~ the $$ money $$ is much easier to come by!!!

4) ENERGY PACKS ~ Use your existing Stamina first! then your existing energy first to level up. Always use your ENERGY PACK last to level up.

5) GIFTING ~ Always Gift back when ever possible and keep an eye out on the trading posts in the topics. Help your fellow lower level players and hardcore fighters. Support your group!

6) STAMINA ~ Always use it like clockwork! built your "fights won stats"! not your "fights lost" stats! don't wait to get attacked..visit your local topics for enemy and bully links!

7) WAR TIME ONLY~ Bookmark your enemy..The ones you can beat! not the ones you cant! when you look in your player updates..look for the ones that have attacked you and you won the fight.. then bookmark their A$$ and teach them a daily lesson!

This does NOT apply to the fight list/ hitlist etc.. only during war time with another clan! you are allowed up 100 attacks in under a min. several times a day until it is considered "abusive behavior" ..don't be shy!

8) Fight List ~ try not to attack someone more then 5 times..there are Millions of people to fight!

9) Mafia Mikes ~ buy as many MAFIA MIKE'S as possible, you never know when robbing will come back! Mafia Mikes cannot be robbed! buy CASINO'S 'NOW' while 'robbing' is down... BUYING THEM 10 AT A TIME..

10) 2nd & 3rd Profiles ~ Not a bad idea for hardcore MW players to have multiple accounts! built them for individual purposes!

11) BUSINESSES ~ GET the ASAP! Get that Cash flow running! Bump those businesses up to full capacity! then worry about everything else! This is a Big help!

Helpful tools: your choice to use them or not!

WHERE IS THE LOOT???
When doing jobs, you will notice a little yellow box next to some of the jobs. This yellow box next to certain jobs indicates loot can be found on this job. Placing your cursor over the box will reveal what loot can be found by doing this job. The loot drops about 33% of the time, or one piece of loot every time you do the job three or four times.

Perform the following tasks DAILY:
(PLESE NOTE: 24 hour clock used for the game, not a calendar day...)

1. NY - Go to NY and bank money. Buy mafia mike's and casino's. 'Get help' with top job available to you.
2. CUBA - Go to CUBA starting at level 30 and bank money. Collect 'politico's' (every 6 hours). 'Get help' with top job available to you.
3. RUSSIA - Go to RUSSIA starting at level 70 and bank money. 'Get help' with top job available to you every 12 or 24 hours. (JOBS IN RUSSIA 'POP EVERY 12 HOURS FOR SOME PLAYERS...)

200 WAYS TO REVIVE A HARD DRIVE (PART II)

DROP IT

From: Bob Matott

Besides the typical use of sys C: to transfer back the system files deleted during "housecleaning" by
typical users, I've gotten lucky by turning the drive upside down and setting it on top of the power supply
(which seemed to remove "a static charge" that had built up).

Also have used various Disk Manager packages to "talk" to drives with FAT/NTFS corruptions just to...
recover the data. If drives are being reformatted from an operating system that doesn't want to "fully go
away" (can name a few!), the disk manager software has also worked in this scenario many times to get
rid of the old and allow you to reformat with the new.

Of course, there's always the "drop it from 4-5" onto a flat hard surface" or "smack the side of the
case with the flat of your hand" approaches. Believe it or not, both techniques have worked. Rumor has
it that sometimes the heads "stick" to the platters during parking/cooldown.

From: Kenneth Lillemo

Sometimes a hard drive that has been running since nearly forever won't spin up after being shutdown for
a while. This can be caused by the heads sticking to the platter. As a LAST resort, I will drop the drive
onto a firm surface from approximately eight inches . Inevitably, this will solve the problem and the
drive is useable long enough to remove the data. My Sys admin spouse gives me a funny look every time
I do it but can't argue with the results.

From: Peter Tello

If the low level diagnostics fail, I declare it officially dead. At that point, I have nothing to lose, so I pull it
out and over a thin carpet, drop it 6" squarely on all 4 sides, repeating this 2 or 3 times . I have
approximately a 50 percent successful boot-up rate, usually enough to copy the data off and save my
behind for not having it backed up in the first place.

From: TDC Tech

This is a one-time fix—long enough to revive HD to get data.
· Take the HD out of the computer and squarely drop it on the closed side of the drive (to your
bench) with perhaps a little slam.
· This seems to free up the bearings long enough to copy data off of the hard drive. I have quite a bit of
luck, but 90 percent of the time it only works once.

STEPS FOR OBTAINING A MAFIA WARS PLAYERS LINK

How to obtain a Mafia Wars players link:
1. click on the person that attacked you and on the web address highlight and then go to file and click on "duplicate tab". Use the address in the duplicate tab.

2. Or go to your Mafia Wars update box,...
right click on the name, not pic, and select copy link..then paste in the comment box

In order to get assistance from another player, you must have the link of the attacker, otherwise there is NO way to identify WHO is attacking you!!

MAFIA WARS TIPS FOR GETTING GODFATHER POINTS

We wanted to share some Mafia Wars tips that can help you obtain more Godfather points. A very popular (and easy) way of doing this is by simple purchasing the points. For a lot of people...
that is the route they take because it’s really that easy, but for most of us we just don’t want to buy points. That’s why we decided to compile some of the best Mafia Wars tips to help you get the points for free and in the fastest manner possible.

The first thing you have to understand is that you get one point for leveling up. It’s a slow method of doing it, but it’s an honest way to earn some points. Doing the free surveys is a popular way of doing this. The surveys can be a bit tedious and time consuming to do. If you plan on doing a lot of surveys than you should set up another free email account and do all the surveys with that email. It is just an easy way to avoid all the promotional emails you’ll get from doing them. Take the time to understand you won’t instantly get your points after doing a survey. It can take up to an hour for your points to actually show up.

Another one of our Mafia War tips is taking advantage of the pay offers that will give you Godfather points. This method does require you to spend money, but it functions in a much different manner than when you’re just buying the actual points. The idea behind it is that you buy an offer, so you get something in return and the points. The reason that this works so well is that you can buy something that you’ve been looking to buy and you get the points for free. Doing it this way is generally less tedious than doing the surveys and you typically get more points too.

The last Mafia Wars tips that we want to give are on the use of the Godfather points. We suggest that you use the points to help refill your energy or use it for 4 skill points. You may feel the need to use the Godfather points on money, but typically it isn’t that hard to get money in the game. You merely have to buy some properties and after a while you’ll end up with more money than you can spend. You don’t need to refill your health because you can simply refill the health by going to a hospital. Refilling your stamina can be a useful thing to do, but players will typically refill their energy.

Well, these are all the Mafia War tips that we wanted to share with you. The free approaches are generally more time consuming, but it is the frugal way of obtaining them. In this game, it really comes down to how you use the points, rather than how you get them. Read More...
