Resolution Buy Off: Don't Be Fooled

Share:

We all know that Zynga math doesn't always make sense. In the case of the New Year's Resolution Event, it looks like they are trying to deceive players who are willing to spend Reward Points to get things done. Look as the task "Craft from School of Choice 6 Times". If you don't want to wait, you can buy it for 90 Reward Points from the Resolutions Page.
All you will get for this purchase is 1 Vote. If you really want a vote, you could buy one for 20 Reward Points. If you are willing to spend 90 Reward Points, you might as well spend 100 and you can gain 6 votes!
I think Zynga forgets that they offer crafting timer resets for 12 Reward Points. You could speed build the School of Choice 6 times and it would only cost 72 Reward Points.
Assuming your School of Choice is at Level 4 or higher, you will also get +24 skill points for your purchase.

    I would like to say I am shocked. But I'm not. They are battering all Mafia wars players into the ground, both new and long term. Check this one out Jen. My mother asked me for help in cafe world. I dipped back in after months away and was rewarded with hundreds of in game cash for tasks that they finished for me, REAL LIFE Cafe Cash, which you have to buy, Spices for my dishes, which you have to buy and they built a load of kitchen items for me, which take an age of begging to build. How come they go the extra mile for cafe world yet they will sit and watch maf go down the pan. Breaks my *&^%in heart

    Jen.

    Agree the price to from page is well overpriced.

    most players can do all 9 parts in 1-2 days. So buying the reaming 3/4 builds in new york can give the player chances to get another quick 9 votes and they gain 4 defense for each.

    Plus if they pick a winner can end up with an extra 10 good henchmen. So buying the last few levels good make sense in long run.
