The Extortion Run Mistake

Share:

A few days ago was about the time 24/7 bot users got their Extortion Runs to Level 15. With only 3 days to spare this clearly demonstrates that without using a bot of some type, you can't finish this event (EDIT: It can be done manually if you set your alarm or faithfully play every 3 hours). Zynga may not realize it (maybe they do) but events that encourage players to keep their bots on are most likely costing them money. I almost didn't finish the last one so this time I was prepared to keep my game going until it was done. 12 days of running straight not only got me to Level 15 but it also got me close to 5,000 free reward points!

  1. You CAN finish these without using cheating scripts... all it takes is a little devotion and some timing... things clearly lost for all the script abusers. It pisses me off when you state that it can't be done without cheating... then how did I manage to finish mine? And faster than you did... so if anything, you should be promoting fair play and quit your cheating yourself... many people read this blog and follow your example... and it disgusts me most of the times... especially in this case, where you wrongfully states that finishing an extortion is impossible without cheating.

    Why don't you try NOT cheating for awhile?? And see if you can find a bit of enjoyment for the game again? I can't imagine running Demon 24-7-365 is much fun... what is the point of playing then??

    1. Devotion and timing take time and effort and can stress someone out who may not be able to get on line every 3 hours. I used to have fun with this game when it was possible. I'm glad that you have the time to do this but most people don't. I used to be able to play this way but life and interests change. Mafia Wars is not the 1st priority in my life. I would promote fair playing if Zynga made it possible for the masses. Now Demon does and it wouldn't surprise me if Demon makes more money than Zynga. Zynga did this to themselves.

    1. You missed the point here. I didn't spend a dime. I haven't needed to spend money on this game ever since I became a serial leveler. I dropped my VIP so this is all free.

  4. This post is to let people know it is possible to finish without bots. First, glad you received so many reward points. I need less than 35 more to finish so it is possible to get this done without bots. Just so people know I do work, sleep, etc... so it is not like I am in the game 24/7. I just try to pop on every 3 hours, 6 times a day if I can. Some days were less. That along with collecting from friends has helped me get as far as I have so far.

  5. Should you be a player that has problems getting to level 15, try and reach at least level 10 because when you claim you have 2 Stamina added to your inventory.(can be claimed every 18 hours)
    Level 15 is for 3 attack (as this makes no difference to your game other than increase your attack score)
    Skill points allocated to anything other than Stamina or Energy is a total waste of skill points

  6. Good point made by players not using bots. I have edited the post. Although there are dedicated players out there, many of us can't be online every 3 hours of every day. I'm certainly not going to wake up at all hours or try to get to a computer while I'm at work. Congrats to those of you who can do this.

    1. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have just about finished mine and I stay out of the game for about 8 hours straight with no clicks or bots happening. Please do not make it seem like manual players are on EVERY 3 hours to finish. Some days I even missed a post of my usual 5 or 6. It IS possible for manual players to do this and sleep, work, etc... Still love you and your blog. Thanks for everything.

  7. Sorry I am not following. You only get 10 parts per day by feeds and no extortion posts give you rps so how did feeds help you? You have to actually post every 3 hours to do this. I missed a lot of postings and thus I am not done yet and may not get done. I get my 10 free parts daily and its not a big deal like people make it out to be. But choosing to have a life and not post every 3 hours like Zynga wants matters far more to me. I assume you use some sort of auto posting script.

    1. an auto posting script is the likely answer. you see the posts all over the place. once clue is when they are posting for South Africa parts

    2. She most likely had Mafia Demon running 24/7 which means it posted the Extortion Feeds for her and she is a serial leveler, the demon does jobs / arenas for you too which is how she most likely got the reward points.

  8. This is so dumb, I left a bot running the entire time I was awake (excluding night) since it was released and I'm only at level 13... Zynga do you really expect us to come back every 3 hours day abd night to finish this crap, I prefer the Limited Time Properties... at least with those you only need to worry every 8 hours.

  9. I have played several different games who only let you open 1 page - open another and you are told more than 1 player has opened up and closed.
    Zynga - (Mafia wars) lets you open as many as you want.
    If Zynga only let you open 1 page 99% of these bots would disappear. They must have a good reason to not stop them.

  10. 5000 RP's?!! Your ratio must be high now? I also completed it to level 15,but i only use level 14 for the 2 staminapoints. This time it go's good and demon picks up a lot of posts in Pods and on my timeline,but maybe next time it realy sucks!! Now they gonna throw annother Ltd property that needs a lot of begging and we will see what the scripts will do.

  11. what to do when you cant click on ask button it dont work for me

  12. It can be done - I hit Level 14 and was partway to Level 15 posting manually, only reason I didn't finish was I forgot a few posts, need to set myself an alarm next time. I'm not playing all day long - but I am near a PC most of the day which makes it easier. Better than LT properties at least :o)
