You come from a humble Bronx family and begin your climb up through the mob's chain of command, leaving a body behind on every step. You must train in the gym, get an education, and find a job to use as a cover for your illegal activities. Once near the top, you can try and eliminate a rival family's don and assume control of the nation's most powerful crime family. The choice is yours but it won't be easy. There are many others out there just like you, a poor Italian kid from the Bronx. Do you have what it takes? Will you become the Don of the most powerful family in the mafia? Only time will tell!!

In other news. We are working on upgrading the "normal" war system, adding a way for you to "kill the rat" during wars. While this is being worked on I am not allowing new families to be formed or wars to be started. Once this is finished all war function will go back to normal until the next Free For ALL, so use this "Cease Fire" to drop members you no longer want, bring some in and to train knowing no one can take you to war!

Free For All, BOGO, and some other news!
March 1, 2013
WHATS UP EVERYONE!!!
Got some things going on for March!
First off, we are going to have a Free For All (FFA) contest. Rkkiller has been working to set us up a way to have a FFA contest and be able to track the respect and personal respect gains during the FFA. At the end of the FFA, the top 3 families with the most respect gained and the top 3 individuals with the top personal respect gained will receive prizes. The prizes will include rare weapons, armors, and other Support Packs. This first FFA will run from 3/4/2013 to 3/31/2013. On 4/1/2013 the winners will be announced and prizes awarded.
Im announcing this today and giving you the weekend to prepare. If you are in wars and want out, make that happen this weekend. If you have people you want to drop, again do that this weekend. We have NO INTENTIONS on ending any current wars. YOU want them ended work it out between the families. ONLY the respect and the personal respect gained during the FFA will be counted for the contest!
To help you prepare I will turn on BOGO but it will be turned OFF when the FFA starts. BOGO will run from 3/1 to 3/4 when the FFa starts.
Im going to be filling the Import House with things all weekend and through out the month, so keep an eye out there too.
Additionally I am working on some type of March Madness Promotion, so watch for that! If you have any ideas, let me know. I have a simple Idea but Im open to any suggestions that sound fun.
On a personal note, I landed a sales job and things seem to be looking up in my little neck of the woods. I hope to have my broadband turned back on in the next few weeks so that will help! We had it shut off to help conserve funds while I was out of work.
So, things are looking up for me!!
Anyway, BOGO is turned on and Monday we will start the free for all.
So get ready and lets have some fun already.

If ya didnt win this time, we may have an Election Day event with prizes and freebies and then there is Thanksgiving later this month.
Also, with Christmas coming up this is usually the time my wife and I start saving up to donate to Toys for Tots. We have done this quietly every year since we started Mafia-Wars and never let anyone know because we dont do it for the recognition, we do it for the kids. Well, this year we are a little tight and we may not have the extra to donate so Im going to leave BOGO on for a few more days and turn it on a few more times between now and Christmas.
