A message from the Godmother
Dear Mafia Family,
I am proud to present some changes to the running of our family. It is my pleasure to
present you with the opportunity to assist the family through greater responsibility.
You can do this by taking the role of a Capodecine or being on a Capo's team!
We finally admit we're addicts, we love our mf&f family and interested in
taking the game beyond leveling up, by building our mafia with family, joining in
family mock wars! gifting! trades, sharing tips, protection and much
more! We thrive to be different and work on constantly introducing a bit of spice to our
roster and being prepared to defend our family if ever a real mafia war was upon us.

all _-{MF&F}-_ family Ranks.
Capo is offered to those who have MF&F’s best interest at heart as the job requires you to
work independently, with your team, and keeping within the same guidelines with all other Capos
and the family. Capo requires your leadership and communication skills as you will want to prep
your team for their first successful battle.
I am adding family ranks to the MF&F team to relieve stress and lessen work from my shoulders. One
person can't be made available to 100's of wishes in a day. A Capo will ensure that his team
disperses this workload therefore making us a more efficient family.
If what you read so far peeks interest and you are available and ready to help defend your family, please
take the following steps, on how to be a Capodecine. If responsibility of Capo is greater then
what you can take on, but want to be on a Capo's team, state this in your response and a capo
will be in touch with you.
| :How to Be a Capo: |
(as you’re aware we're just getting started you will be one of the originals)
First step is building your squadron:
Ask around in the family who would be interested in joining your team.
They will be listed as soldiers under you. It is important that your team is aware
of the job risks and willing to take a spanking. You’re looking for 9 soldier ranging
between 300 to 600+,
two of these players need to be higher level players if possible to be your group’s
power hitters and must carry the MF&F tag solo or be non-tagged.
If needed I can appoint a high hitter Torpedo whom other Capos will share.
Step two:
E-mail me your team , include: their names, mw and fb profile link.
In return, I will send you a web page which will give you easy access to your team.

| :Preparing: |
It is important to organize a daily meet with your crew. This will allow
us to be prepared in receiving family assistance more efficiently. Only when all teams
do this will it have its effectiveness.
What is said to your team to prepare them is your call as you will be working independently
with your group but so long as all Capos are working towards the same common goal.
Never forget our groups foundation; Built on Family & Friends. We're a non-warring clan
and have a strong reputation in negotiating. A Capo's position requires work, as it will
be your duty to investigate the bully. War is never a capo's option.
http://www.chatzy.com/ is the perfect place for your team to meet and where the
Consigliere, Capo Bastone or Don can jump in
time to time when needed. Before anything else, set up a chatzy room and send the link and
password to your crew and GM. Chatzy rooms are easy to use and a great tool to keep
the communications open with your crew.

| :Strategy: |
The role as Capo is to ensure help can be reached in the time of war and
help is received to lower level players requesting bully
assistance. As Capo you will appoint certain jobs to your team so that the 3 or 4 jobs
that need to be complete by one person is now divided up among one team.
Players who are requesting assistance from a MF&F Capodecine are to email a Capo listed
on the left of our group's page. From there, a Capo who receives a request must start a
new topic in the Discussion Board, followed up by a post by all teammates participating.
Notify the Godmother by sending topic's link.
By creating a new topic is like opening a ticket to the Godmother and her team and shows
others you are not available at present time to take on a new case.
All chats can be made private at this time between you and your soldiers. When case is
closed and client and capo is satisfied, It is the capo's duty to return to your topic in
discussions and post ~Closed~. Posts will be deleted by the Godmother 1, up to 365 days
later.
~~~Steps~~~~
:::::::: Making Contact W/Client ::::::::::
Before anything else, it is important to find out the story behind the attacks. Not
just find out but each individual gets MF&F treatment. No attack on them is to big or to
little and we are here to help you! This is always to be made clear to all who ask MF&F
for help.
Once your client feels at ease and understands the following questions are to help them,
start asking them questions about the attacks. It's important to always find out if the # of
attacks was one cycle or was it returning on a # of occasions.
Make it clear to your client your job requires making contact with the bully, knowing as
much detail about the situation is important.
Ask your client if they retaliated or shared links. Regardless, it must be clear they
do not retaliate. - Telling the bully they are not retaliating is the only tool we have
when making contact.
:::::::: Making Contact W/Bully ::::::::::
The Capo doing the messaging should send out a friend request first, if not they can be
reported as abusive to facebook for sending messages. it's up to them after everything
is over if they want to stay friends and share mafia.
-Do one of two things. Send them a FR and put "mafia wars" in the message part of the
request or put a message of what your goals are, like.... "I would like to talk about the
attacks". You have to base it on case by case but, I would not message that person if
they did not accept the friend request. not worth loosing your account.
Gather info by sending in one of your power hitters to attack, once. Note all
necessary info to take back to their Capodecine. Once strength is noted the Capo can
take note of who on their team will be attacking and who will be hitlisting, At this
time, if peace without force cannot be met it will be the Capo's responsibility to
coordinate their team and keep close contact with the bully and client.
If peace talks does not end the attacks on your client, the capos second attempt can use
slight force as a bargaining tool by sending in a team of soldiers. When all else fails
the Capo will give the order to attack with a plan that best suits the situation.
If the Capo's 2nd attempt go without no positive results, and your client hasn't retaliated
from the time their request was received, then it is the duty of a capo to make contact
with either the Capo Bastone, Consigliere or the Godmother herself for extra assistance.

| Attitude Is Everything: |
The emails that are sent out to bullies are ones of interest in getting to know that
person. Encourage them to join mafias. Ask them to stop the hits just because the
person they're hitting is no longer enjoying the game and has asked for help.. the
costumer is always right; shakes head in yes motion; attitude, is kept during all
negotiations. more importantly, make sure the bully understands that the gamer you are
helping is not retaliating.
- Keep words clean and simple puts the bully in a position to having to stop bullying
to save his reputation of a nice guy or be marked as intentionally going out of their
way to bully.
Before the case is officially closed, send the following info to client.
Share some Players Update info. with your client.
Example:
Stick with the fight pages. Help your client understand that all attacks your client
makes from the fight page will show up in the other guys news feed, so for them to
fight back from their own players updates is asking for a friendly war.
(((this is a whole different subject, however))) then helping them with their
bully problem. keep it simple, explain how the 'Players Update' pg works is important
for all mw players to understand.

| Starting as a New Capo: |
Your team will need to train in order to be able to work together and build communications,
plus you will need training to be an effective Capo. I feel the best way to do that is by
conducting mock scenarios for your team to work together on. Your team will have 2+ training
sessions ... there will be a decoy asking for help from a bully at some point.
(More detail on how this work will follow later) You, personally, will know it's a training
session. Your team will know after it is all over along with the results, which I email out.
Results:
1) Team work: how well did you all work together
2) Used proper procedure for handling the bully and client
3) Quickness of responses
Your first training session will start when you feel your team is ready. Your team knows at
some point there will be 2+ future decoy training sessions and your job is to prep, prepare,
and treat all cases like they were real.
If your team passes with flying colors you can thank good communication skills for that.
After your 1st successful decoy training session you will be promoted to Capodecine and
can start taking on real cases and building your team to 20.
If you like what you have heard please let me know as soon as possible. Then immediately
start working on putting together a team or let me know if you would like me to assign you
a team. If you read this and do not want to be a Capo that is ok, please let me know if you
are interested in being placed on a Capo’s team.
Thanks again for your time and the consideration of taking on more responsibility within
the family. I hope to hear from you soon.
