Nope, not paying 35 RP to enter, sorry.

MAFIA WARS secret district Smuggler's Haven banner replaces The Slammer

I had to laugh when I saw this. Now that the Mafia Wars secret district The Slammer has come to a close, Zynga thought they'd throw the banner for Smuggler's Haven on your Mafia Wars home page...just to let you know it's there, of course.

Of course, clicking on the home page banner only takes you here.

GIVE ME YOUR MONEY!! (says Zynga)

I just laughed and logged back out.

MAFIA WARS Zynga player survey: The Slammer secret district

Now that The Slammer secret district for Mafia Wars is almost dead and gone, what do you have to say about it? Since I didn't get to play much of this one, I don't have much I can say about it (and maybe that's a good thing).

Zynga wants to know your opinion, so don't be shy:

MAFIA WARS Reminder: secret district The Slammer ends today

Those of you working on the secret district The Slammer in Mafia Wars will want to pick up your pace today, as the secret district will be slamming shut in just over 8 hours!

How well did you do? Did you finish it? I didn't have a chance to even touch this one, I've been way too busy with that Real Life thingie. I'm hoping I can work on the next secret district that comes out, presuming the ratios are good, anyway. (and no, I'm not paying to reopen Smuggler's Haven!)

Good luck!

MAFIA WARS The Slammer secret district returns to Mafia Wars

As promised by Zynga a few days ago, The Slammer secret district has just returned to a Mafia Wars home page near you. The Slammer secret district was first released last Thursday, and you can read Ann's post covering the details linked here http://mistyfiedmafiawars.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-secret-chicago-district-slammer.html.

About an hour later, the secret district disappeared, leaving many players confused and worried about the progress they had already made in The Slammer district. After the fact, Zynga finally told players that they had intentionally pulled The Slammer, and that it would return--with progress made intact--on the 23rd.

You can again send Jailbreakers to your Mafia Wars friends. Jailbreakers are a consumable item needed for some jobs in the secret district.

MAFIA WARS Secret District The Slammer To Return At Later Date

From the Zynga customer support page:

Missing Secret District

Updated 01/20/2012 at 05:06

For a brief time earlier this evening we released the next Secret District, but due to player feedback regarding our recent event schedule, this district will not be made active until Monday, January 23rd, 2012.

We apologize for any confusion that this may have caused, but we felt the timing of the event would be better suited for our players at a later date.

Many players have expressed concern over the progress that they have already made on this Secret District, but don't worry all progress made by players has been saved and will be there when it releases again on Monday.

Because this was an intentional removal of the feature and all progress will be saved and restored at the next release there is not a reason to submit an incident or contact Customer Support as they will not be able to make any changes or credits to your account.

Thank you again for your feedback!

Your Mafia Wars Team

MAFIA WARS missing secret district The Slammer

Well, the bad news is that the latest secret district for Mafia Wars, The Slammer, has gone missing. I hate it when Zynga pulls this stuff. As someone mentioned on our Facebook fan page, most likely a number of "bugs" were identified and the secret district was closed for repair. That's just a guess, but probably a good one. The good news is you can still receive the consumable needed for The Slammer secret district, the Jailbreaker. Keep your eyes peeled...it'll be back soon or we'll hear other news.

EDIT, well now they just pulled Jailbreakers from the free gift page just in the past half hour. Trying to send them will result in sending blue mystery bags. I'm so far still able to accept the Jailbreakers that were sent to me before this occurred, but a few people are reporting that they are now getting blue mystery bags when trying to accept the Jailbreakers.

Boooo Zynga.
