The Root of Success In Mafia Wars
There are so many people playing Mafia Wars with so many different styles of play that it might seem impossible to become one of the truly good ones who are capable of knocking off his or her opponents with ease and practiced skill. Yet, there are some very specific things you can do that, if done properly, will help you be successful at the game no matter what your play style is.
Building Your Mafia
Your mafia is the single most important thing for you success in this game. If you want to do well, make sure you have a decent sized collection of family members even as you just get started. This can be done easily enough by contacting all your friends, going to blogs and swapping mafia members with other mafias on forums. Never spend your Godfather points on getting new members however. It's not worth it.
Getting Godfather Points
Godfather points are the root of all success in this game. The attack power and defensive boosts you get from loading up on these points is enough to help you take on enemies 50 or 100 levels higher than you. That kind of power up is almost impossible to come by any other way. The key here is not to spend cash on these or to give away your real contact info to the special offers that the game wants you to fill out. Rather, use a fake email address and sign up for as many that don't require credit card numbers as possible.
Playing Every Day
If you play the game every day you can do a tremendous job of tapping your energy when it is available and getting the most out of your account. Additionally, you can play the lottery daily and get a much better rate of return on your Godfather points. You don't need to play hours a day, but a 10 minute login every day will do wonders for your play.
If you do these things, are ruthless with your opponents and never fall behind in the game, you will quickly find that you can blast your way to the top of the Mafia Wars hierarchy without having to pay any extra cash, or wheedle any favors out of your fellow players. Just play well, be careful and build your mafia quickly. Those are the secrets to success.

Why You Should Never Pay Cash For Godfather Points In Mafia Wars
The odds are pretty good that you've not only played Mafia Wars at some point, but that you've pined over the best way to build and succeed with your Mafia, while not actually pouring your hard earned cash into unnecessary investments, such as the Godfather points that so many players seem to rack up so easily. Lucky for you, there are many ways to get those points, and to make them go further without having to spend a single dime doing it. Here are the best ways to get ahead legitimately:
1. Play the Game Daily
One of the least likely, but still worthwhile ways to get Godfather points is to just logon to the game each day and pick your lottery numbers. By playing daily, you up the chances that you will win extra points without actually having to do anything. It may seem like a longshot, but over the course of a year or so, those odds will stack up and eventually you'll get at least a few out of the deal.
2. Do the Offers, but Carefully
The offers are always good ways to get Godfather points, but you need to be careful not to give away any personal information, lest you start getting inundated with spam. Stay clear of any 'free trial' offers because you don't want to get the monthly fees tacked on when you forget to turn them off. You also don't want to be giving out you credit card number. If you're picky about which offers you choose to sign up for, you can significantly reduce the chances that you actually end up spending money for those points.
3. Use Fake Contact Details
A simple way to get around paying cash or getting stuck with spam for your points is to use fake contact information. Set up a few fake email addresses and use those to sign up for things. They will load up with spam quickly and you can forget about them when you are done. It takes a little extra time, but it's well worth it if you never have to sort through all that junk mail you're going to inevitably get when you fill out those offer forms.
If you do it properly, you can get as many Godfather points as you ever need without having to spend a single dime doing it, or worry about having your email inbox overloaded with unwanted messages from all those companies you're signing up for. Then, it'll be time to start knocking off your opponents one by one.

Three Easy Ways To Grow Your Mafia In Mafia Wars
Mafia Wars is a game about many things, but first and foremost among those things is the importance of growing your Mafia. If you're not able to build a large enough group of fellow players to use in the game, you're going to find it very hard to acquire the resources and complete the jobs necessary to stay on top. So, what are the best ways to grow that mafia and take control? Here are three highly effective ways to make it happen without having to spend a single Godfather Point.
1. Networking on Facebook
Facebook and MySpace are already huge social networks and if you have a few hundred friends, use them. Send out invitations to everyone on your friend list to join your mafia, regardless of how well you know them (steer clear of your co-workers and boss though if you have work connections). Most people will just say yes and if they already have their account, they'll reciprocate. Don't waste time by not using the tools already in front of you.
2. Forums and Chatrooms
Alternately, you can find plenty of social venues where you can discuss the game and find people willing to swap places with you in each other's mafias. This is a prime way to start building up your mafia size without having to spend any additional points or make new friends. You don't need to stay social to keep you mafia size up, so just find a few people willing to take the rewards you give them and you should be good.
3. Blogging and Craigslist
If you have a blog or are well known somewhere, use that prestige to gather new members. A simple note on your blog about needing new family members will often times take care of the problem all by itself. Alternately, you can post an ad on Craigslist and ask people to join up (it does actually work). Just make sure you don't give away any personal information until you have checked out the people who reply.
If you use the tools that the Internet provides you for free, you'll quickly find that it takes very little time or effort to boost your position on Mafia Wars with a full family of 500. It might seem like a stretch, but in just a few weeks you can be one of those top level players too.

Five Things That Need Careful Planning In Mafia Wars
Mafia Wars is one of those games that requires very careful planning and a keen eye for detail if you're serious about landing the highest level rewards and truly performing well against fellow players. However, for a game that seems so relatively simple to get into, the game holds a tremendous amount of depth, which can make that planning relatively hard. So, here are five things you should keep in mind as you get started:
Your Family Size
If you're serious about winning, build your family size up as quickly as possible. This means from level 1 you should be out there recruiting heavily. If you wait until you're Level 100, you'll spend countless extra hours trying to make things work without actually having a gameplan. Use Facebook, contact your friends, use your blog. Whatever tools are at your disposal should be used carefully to build that family size up.
Your Godfather Points
You need Godfather points, but you should be careful about how you get them. Some people willingly spend cash or give away their personal data to get them and there's no reason. Rather, you can spend just a few minutes each day filling out your lottery numbers, and using fake information for offers and get all the Godfather points you need.
Completing Jobs
Complete your jobs as quickly as you can and with the most possible rewards. The key here though is to remember that you need to scale up your jobs as you level and to do a diverse range of them to get all the possible rewards so that later on, you will have all the jobs available to you.
Buying Properties
Buy properties, starting with the easiest to attain. You'll find that as the properties break down, you need to spend money to keep them up, so don't waste any time buying properties that are not going to give a solid return on their investment.
Fighting Your Enemies
Fighting your fellow players in Mafia Wars is more or less pointless and wastes your resources. Rather, you should focus on building your levels, getting more points and recruiting new family members. If you do that with the time you have each day, you'll be much more successful in the long run.
If you follow the details outlined above, you'll do much better in Mafia Wars than you ever thought possible. It's a simple matter of being careful with the time you have to spend and analyzing how you invest everything carefully.
