Mafia Wars Family Icing Event FAQ

MAFIA WARS FAMILY ICING EVENT Who is the strongest Family out there? A new icing event will determine the coolest and baddest Family in Mafia Wars. Y’all will need to work together to earn mastery items that will be awarded to everyone in the Family. Extra special rewards will go the top 10 Families. Q: When does the event start and finish? A: The event begins June 28, 2011 and ends July 5, 2011. The homepage banner will have a timer once the event begins. Q: I am hearing that a few of my friends already have this event. How come it is not showing on my account? A: Each time that we launch a new feature it is released to a limited number of people. This is meant to ensure that the feature is stable after it has gone live. Initially not all players will have access to this feature. Q: I am currently in a Family and we already have a lot of ices. Do those ices count towards the event? A: No. Your ices starting from when the event goes live will be counted towards the Death by Ice event. This way, everyone who participates will start from the same spot. Q: If I leave my current Family and go to another Family, which Family gets my ices? A: Your ices that you accumulate during the event with Family A will stay with Family A if you leave. Once you join Family B, any new ices you bring in will count towards Family B Summary of what is new: · Family mastery rewards Every time your Family hits an icing mastery tier, the entire Family gets the mastery item. Ice players in Fighting, and your ices during the event will count towards your Family’s icing mastery. This is Ma. Don't tick her off! · Top 10 Families The top 10 Families will earn bonus prizes on top of the Family mastery rewards. Members of the 1st place Family will each get a Two-Headed Snake (175 attack, 175 defense) and 20 skill points. So start gathering your Family and plan your attacks! · Leaderboards You will be able to see the top 4 Families and the number of ices they have on the Homepage.
