This is just like those last two events, where everyone in your Mafia Red Tag can help to level up to the best prizes.

Grand Prize: Love Handle, weapon [235/169] Ruby Level

Don't expect to see the Leaderboards for this, since that spot is currently occupied by the Fence Master Even More Mafia Chores event

Earn those Crests to get the good loot!

I found the leaderboard! It only took me all day!

2nd Family Inheritance Arena Event #9 2/22

Family Inheritance #2

Family Inheritance #1 Jan 17th

I am *still* not a big fan of the Arena. As much as Zynga has been shoving the Arena at us lately, it seems this is the way the game is going. What I mean by shoving it at us is several things are going on at once, almost all of them redirect us towards the Arena. The Daily Point Nerfed into Arena Boosts, then, because that didn't suck *enough* Zynga'd moreso into Daily Point is a Hired Gun .

Click that little Question Mark to see the giant pop up!

Just like Family Inheritance #1 the Rewards drop off dramatically the lower you are on the leaderboard.
Speaking of the leaderboard, I don't have one in-game yet so I have no idea where we rank.
The Loot Item is a Red Barchetta, armor [see table above]
Event Ends March 3rd 11:59 PM PST

Family Inheritance Arena Event 1/17

Family Inheritance Arena Event
(or Another way to get you to think you will gain more Reward Points than you will spend.)

(Notice that the top rewards look great on this banner) 

I have not liked the Arena since it first came out. I still don't like it. It reminds me of the very first game of  Space Invaders they had at my local Shakey's Pizza parlor. It was an exciting new game in 1979. In 2013, not so much.

I click on the cute little question mark on this banner and get this enormous pop-up. It really makes me wish I enjoyed this even a little tiny bit, but I don't. Anyway, the Diamondback Terrapin is a lovely piece of loot, and look at all the Reward Points one *might* receive!

(Notice that the rewards drop off a *lot* from the top five rewards versus the bottom five rewards.)
Oh there are those cute little Crests again. I have one.
It appears that if you are able to gain or get to (again, Zynga is not clear at all on this) 6500 Crests, you will get the Ruby level Diamondback Terrapin, and so on down the line.
As far as those Reward Points, is that the Family Leaderboard? It *looks* like it's the Family Leaderboard to me. Another very vague, unclear information from Zynga, as per the usual.

Here is a peek at a Family Leaderboard: My Family is 494th place.
