This & Next Week 7/1

The Mafia Wars blog has published the third edition of weekly news. You can read it in its entirety HERE. I'll skip what happened this past week, because I think we've all had enough of that. Nothing major in the bug fixes, and what's awesome about this coming week is what's NOT listed - a ton of events! I know I've started grumbling lately about the need to slow down events again. There will be the now-customary weekly  mission event, and those mystery boosts that never made it out this past week. I suggest we show our appreciation of the slowdown by spending more time PLAYING the game, so Zynga doesn't think events is all that keeps us coming back!

This Week's Major Bug Fixes
BUG: Kills, which count as two ices elsewhere in the game, were not counting at all toward ice counters in "Ice X opponents" mission tasks.
FIXED: Kills now add 2 to mission task ice counters. <I noticed this>
BUG: Friend names were not filtering correctly while one typed in the "Start Typing a Name" box on the Free Gifts page and the Inventory Gifting page.
FIXED: Name lists now filter correctly in response to what a player types.

Coming Next Week*
*As far as is currently scheduled, but things can change.
New Mission: Jackpot
Join Michelle Paulis and do anything to win in a mission to rig the lottery in your favor.
New Mystery Bags
Boosts are coming! Send friends the new mystery bags and they could get a crazy amount of rare fighting boosts. The combined strength of these boosts would make Popeye trash his entire supply of spinach!
