Lead Into Gold: Myth Busting

Myth Busting is the first mission in the Lead Into Gold Mafia Wars mission event. Zynga has really been skating on thin ice with some of their mission names lately, as this one reminds me an awful lot of a certain show on Discovery Channel. During the Return To Cuba mission event, we saw a mission called Intel Inside - and you can't tell me you don't recognize that name!

Objectives

• 0/4 ACTIVATE 4 CREW MEMBERS IN BRAZIL.
  Appoint members of your Mafia to keep everything in line while you're gone.

• 0/8 ACQUIRE 8 ARMORS.

For your first objective, it means exactly what it says. Go to Brazil and activate 4 crew member positions.

If you need to get more crew members in order to complete this objective, DON'T click the Ask button. It seems the most obvious way to go about getting more crew, but that button only wants you to send Facebook requests to get crew members. You don't want to wait for people to answer those requests.

Click the button to the LEFT of the Ask button, and a drop-down menu will appear. Click the Recruit button there.

That'll generate a news feed post, and your online friends can click and immediately join your crew with much less waiting time on your part.

The second objective has some people confused, and understandably so. You're told you need to acquire 8 Armors, and when you click Go Now, it dumps you in the marketplace. Zynga just wants you to purchase armor items, but we're not going to do that.

• Go to Brazil.
• Click on your Inventory tab. 
• Click on City Story. 
• Click on Armor. 
• Buy ANY armor there, and it counts toward your objective.

So realistically, you're looking at 60 seconds to complete the Myth Busting mission :0)

The rewards for this one aren't so hot - some jungle maps and Brazilian Real. But, I don't think any of us will turn up our noses at the XP.
