Add ANY Player To Your Mafia

Share:

UPDATE: It works again.

UPDATE: It's fixed now. If the sarcasm of this post was lost on a few, you can chill out now. The entire purpose of this post was to get this exploit fixed. It took 3 days but I think it worked. Had it not been put out there, it may still be a mystery that only a few players knew about. If a glitch negatively impacts the game for players than most of us can agree it needs to be fixed.

If Zynga’s performance in keeping up with the Facebook API changes thus far is any indication of what’s to come, Mafia Wars is definitely in trouble. There is now a workaround for losing fights. Are you in a war that you can’t win? Add those opponents to your mafia! Does a bully got you down? Add him to your mafia! Is it a bad time for a Drive-By? Add the entire family to your mafia! Is your ignore list so long that it hurts your pride? Add them all to your mafia! The possibilities are endless. If a player is in your mafia, they can't attack you. It no longer matters if you are Facebook Friends or not, you can add any player to your mafia. Follow the steps below to add the players of your choice. If you are a strong player and find this post or anyone who magically appears in your mafia offensive, there are innocent ways they can be added. While this may be fun for some, it definitely needs to be fixed or soon we will all be in each others mafias.

Step 1: Find a player you want to add to your mafia. Your player updates, attackers, rivals or script ignore lists is a good place to start.

Step 2: Locate the players p| number. If you use the Spockholm Mafia Toolbar, it should appear on the profile page. If it doesn’t you can use the Assassin-a-Nator to fetch it.

Change to Target Mode, click on ‘add link’, enter the green Mafia Wars profile link, click ‘OK’.  The Mafia Wars link will convert to the p| number.

Step 3: Copy the link below and replace the XXXXX with the p|number you found in step 2. Paste the modified link into your browser bar, click enter and you rival is now in your mafia! It’s that easy.

  2. Comments with profiles in them will not be posted. The point of this post was for Zynga to fix it. Obviously a lot of players will do it, it is possible. Some are getting added as friends not by choice as there are other methods this is happening as well. This was just to show it could be forced.

    1. Shall we do it your way and not say a word so only a select few know about it and those that get added to their mafias continue to be puzzled? The more that know, the more will complain and Zynga may fix it.

    1. It's mainly a problem for those in wars. You can boot them but they can add you right back.

  6. Why do you need Step 2? If you get the p number from Step 1, and use that for Step 3, why not skip Step 2?

    1. Step 1 doesn't mention the p|number at all. Step 2 has 2 parts to it. The second part is for when the p| number doesn't load on the profile page. Step 1 is to find they player you want to add, step 2 is to get the p|number and step 3 is to modify the link and use it to add a player to your mafia.

  7. Thanks! Now many of our opponents in the war are doing it! What a great service of informing everyone and show them how to do it!

    1. Would it be better to not say anything and rely on Zynga figuring it out and let it go unchecked? The more players who do this, the faster it will get fixed. Maybe the players in your war will go complain to Customer Support and it might get fixed sooner. So yes this was a great service. Thank you very much.

    2. how could you post this....thanks for screwing up my game...people are adding themselves to my mafia I have blocked and now having to remove them constantly....you are a real piece of work for making this public.....thanks for nothing

    3. You are a real piece of work for thinking it should have stayed in the background. If you want it fixed than this is how it needs to be. Complain to Zynga, not me. This was also posted to explain to the players that this is happening to why as many couldn't figure out why non-friends were being added to their mafias.

    4. pffft.....because you showed people how to do it that wouldn't have known in the first place, i've deleted a stalker more than 50 times...there is a better way of doing this without showing perverts how to do it...most didn't know how it was done...now everyone knows...this was a bad decision on your part

      Delete
    5. Last time I checked, I don't work for anybody and I don't owe anybody the time it takes to map out decisions so making a bad one isn't a big deal. I think it was a great decision because something needs to be really fucked up before Zynga will fix it. Maybe this is step one to getting the news feeds taken out of the game. Obviously Zynga can't handle the changes Facebook is making and it might be easier for them to remove them all together. I also love that my decision has impacted your game. You are just a cry baby only thinking of yourself so yes my decision was bad for YOUR game but not the game as a whole. If you are targeting a player so much so that he or she needs to add you as a friend 50 times than obviously you are sitting on someone and it's pissing you off that you can't negatively impact their game. You must be an obsessed bully, the kind who runs and cries to mommy when something doesn't go their way.

    6. Don't let the critics get you down Loot Lady. You were reporting on something that all of the current players in MW needed to know about it. We all know this was already happening so it's not like someone who is sane would start using this for unseemly means just because they read it on your blog.

    7. Perverts and Stalkers? This only adds them to your mafia, not your FB account. Last I checked there is no communication from MW player to player.

    8. I thank you because I still play the game manually Fightin and I like that I can add to people that sit on me and steal all my money in Los Angeles

    9. I think I know who "Anonymous" is that was so angry at LL...I find it funny as hell that they got so worked up over it - chill dude, and don't bust a nut over it :D I guess if someone thinks playing a game like MW and enjoying taking the piss out of an idiot's day makes them a pervert or stalker, there's a lot of perverts and stalkers enjoying themselves at the expense of people like this that get so pissy and bent out of shape over things :D Go Loot Lady! :D

  8. can't they just remove you or you remove them from the mafia?

  9. I routinely remove "non-friends" from my mafia so this would be temporary at best for those who do this.

  10. I have been running a feed scanner & I think its helping everyone, and in doing do they get added to my mafia. I think this glitch is why I have dozens of people showing as "blocked" when I run mafia inspector. I do not recognise the names & I'm sure I haven't added them manually.
    So if I've inadvertently added anyone I'm sorry. It certainly wasn't deliberate, and definitely NOT because I met you on the fight list :(

    Zynga really need to get their act together with FB as a matter of urgency

    1. Yes, I'm not sure how this is happening but there are players getting added without intending to. It most likely is the scanners. This post was showing how to reproduce it but there are other ways in which I'm not sure what is happening. Sadly the innocent ones are getting blamed for doing this on purpose. Zynga really needs to figure it out.
