If you actually like participating in gifting events (I don't), there is good news. Many players had the event automagically completed for them.

That bug has been fixed so now you have to go out there and accept the gifts. 15 for each side 5 times to ensure you will get 5 Grand Prize items which is the Showdown Trophy (90/95).

Yesterday the 411 Page said we needed to collect 10 of each gift but it's been updated today and is now 15.

Click the little question mark on the Home Page Module to learn more about the event.  We have until March 7th until the fake winner of the fake fight is selected. Even though I live in Las Vegas, I'm not really up to speed on Ultimate Fighters so someone can school us in the comments if this event is imitating a real upcoming fight.

Find the Cold Snap and the Game Face on the Free Gift Page.

You can ask your to send them to you can generate some cool looking spam for your news feeds.

Now here is the part that sucks. I still can't accept any of the gifts and I'm not alone.  They really need to change the name of the Cold Snap to the Oh Snap because that's what I say every time I try to accept one.

Here is the Customer Support page dealing with the gift issue (1) and here is the forum page if you want to keep checking for updates (1).
Have a Problem with Gifting? Programmers want to Fix it! Help us, help them

Updated 02/24/2011 12:24 PM

The Mafia Wars development team is aware gifting problems are preventing some players from successfully accepting gift requests from fellow mafia members and friends.  The Mafia team is committed to addressing gifting problems however specific information is needed from players reporting trouble to ensure the best information is collected so gifting issues can be appropriately diagnosed and addressed.

Developers continually work to resolve outstanding issues, but each fix is complicated and sometimes difficult to diagnose and replicate. To ensure the best information is submitted to Zynga Customer Support please follow the suggested format so the Mafia Development team can effectively review the problems surrounding gifting and have complete information to act upon.

We thank you for your assistance in this process of trying to get these problems fixed.  While Customer Support agents can't fix or edit the code themselves, they can help generate reports that the programmers will analyze.
