This inspired Meetups in Ridgewood
Are you ready to take part in a global conspiracy? Plan a face-to-face gathering with your fellow Mafia Wars fans and players in your city during the 1st Worldwide "Mafia Meetup" Day on Friday April 8th! On this day, meet new players in your area over coffee or drinks - share tips, plan your game strategy and grow your mafia, in-person.
Be the boss and organize your meetup to be as big as you can. Pick a time and location; spread the word and get as many of your friends involved as possible. We'll be sending out special "Mafia Meetup Starter Kits" to any meetup group that has 50+ RSVPs, OR to the Top 5 largest meetup groups - whichever is more! The deadline for the RSVP Count for the starter kits is March 28th at 12:00am PST so we can send out the starter kits in time; that doesn't mean you have to stop inviting your friends after that time!
This is your chance for you and your fellow Mafia Wars fans to shine; don't let them down! Use this space to figure out the "where" and the "how". You are in charge now - get out there and tell all your friends!
LOCATION: Houndstooth Pub located at 520 8th Ave, NY NY (37th & 8th). DOWNSTAIRS - look for the MAFIA WARS MEET-UP sign!

Special Thanks to the Daily Post for helping get the word out about our event! You can read all about it here: http://thedailyposthq.wordp...
Posted by Nancy April 4, 2011Being the curious cat that I am and since I work in the 34th Street area @ Herald Square, I took a short walk over to the Houndstooth and a PRIVATE ROOM has been reserved for us. I toured the place and its very nice. We got plenty of space to either engage in meet & greets, we have our own bar area, and space to setup a play area.
Posted by 'Roc Mountain April 4, 2011If you're worried about pricey food, across the street you have white castles, Subway's, Taco Bell, Dunkins Doughnuts & a Pax for the health conscious. there's a McD's a block over. The trains A,C,& E leave you on the corner of 34th & 8th & its a.short 3 block walk to 37th & 8th.
Posted by 'Roc Mountain April 4, 2011For the comfort factor, easy location, accessibility and no doubt a great time I have without a doubt that the Houndstooth is a winner. I want this to happen and look forward to seeing you guys there. Happy hunting my friends.
Posted by 'Roc Mountain April 4, 2011okay children, I'm finding this all very evil and equally asinine. My questions have yet to be answered: Can we get a private room at Dallas BBQ?one that is available for the entire evening? one that has a bar and has a few tables so that we are encouraged to walk around most of the evening and talk to other mw members, rather than sit down and eat? Is the room at the pub closed to non-mw members? Or is it equally public? Neither of these places sound particularly good for our needs.
Posted by TOBI KANTER April 3, 2011If you scroll down to the earlier postings you will see your question has in fact been answered.
Posted by 'Roc Mountain April 4, 2011so where is it going to b????
Posted by Gladys Dotson-Mercedes April 3, 2011really?!?
Posted by TOBI KANTER April 3, 2011ok i'll b there
Posted by Gladys Dotson-Mercedes April 3, 2011http://www.facebook.com/eve...
Posted by TOBI KANTER April 3, 2011Since the 2 places are equally bad, I am planning to go to BBQ early for a nice cheap dinner?which is what it's known for. I will look for any mw folks there, first. and check out the space. Then I will walk the entire 5 blocks downtown to the Houndstooth Pub, to check out the "crowd" to see if there are any mw members there and if I can locate them. The good thing is that I live only a few blocks from each. The bad thing is that this is supposed to be a friendly game between "adults."
Posted by TOBI KANTER April 3, 2011Oh I so wish I were going to be there with you!! I will be there in spirit. Love the vibe at Houndstooth... great choice! Say Hi to my "family" that haven't met yet...
Posted by Nancy April 3, 2011I have to concur with the question of internet access. BBQ'S is a restaurant, not an internet cafe. I don't have a laptop personally. I play through my phone, though its slightly limited, during the day. And play on my IMAC when I get home. I suspect that those with laptops or IPads to surely bring them as this is about Mafia Wars I'm sure some tips & tricks will be discussed.
Posted by 'Roc Mountain March 24, 2011i'm with u on that i want 2 meet and make new friends with face to face conversation
Posted by Gladys Dotson-Mercedes April 3, 2011U can go do that at any bar but this a MW meet and Greet so i will be doing both.
Posted by Benny Ng April 4, 2011Thanks for all the input guys. The meet up is at the Houndstooth. This is firm and final. Dallas Bbq can not accommodate this type of meet up. Zynga will be at the Houndstooth and is promoting the Houndstooth as the event location. The Houndstooth is the only venue for this meet up. We hope to see you all there!
Posted by Nancy April 3, 2011I want to make a Suggestion
Posted by Linda Cambridge April 1, 2011WE have two Places that have been as selected after the fact of the First Place which Is Dallas BBQ
I choose that place due to Meeting the needs of the NY Fans
it has a great selection and the atmosphere is good
The Other place is Good also but is a Pub
The question was ask regarding the Internet and neither place offer it
I feel that we should allow everyone to decide
Let's put it to a Vote
Thank You
in the beginning 34 people decided and there wasn't a people
Even Zynga made a comment after Nancy made a statement
and and No One including You didn't even open your Mouth
under Mind you
I and Erika was making it our business to getting the word Out.
Everybody have a Beautiful and Wonder time
Posted by Linda Cambridge April 2, 2011Umm .... I'm sorry but I'm afraid I didn't capture the point you were trying to convey in your posting Linda. Can you clarify it for us, thanks.

Hey Mafia Fans of New York! Dallas BBQ is a great place for your meetup on April 8th! Great to see so many fans planning on attending in your area! Be sure to take lots of photos and videos and you could be featured on our Fan Page! I'll keep you updated as to where to send those to. Exciting!
Posted by Mafia Wars Team March 9, 2011Who choose this location? It's kinda sucky.....
Posted by Nancy March 9, 2011Anyone can suggest a location! Choose a coffee shop, book store, local bar or pub. Please provide your location suggestions here.
Posted by Mafia Wars Team March 9, 2011The best place to meet would be at the steakhouse where Big Paul C. was rubbed out by John Gotti and crew. Somewhere where Mafia have history like Little Italy on Mulberry St.
Posted by Pete Ayala March 17, 2011We couldn't afford Sparks Steakhouse! I think Little Italy is a great idea. Someone told me that Dallas BBQ is fun and everyone would be able to find it.
Posted by Marielle Abramson March 18, 2011Little Italy would have been great... Dallas BBQ is smack in the middle of tourist central... but I'm going just for you Marielle because you now approve of this location!! LMAO
Posted by Nancy March 22, 2011With the change, I am not sure If I can make it. The new location is out of the way for me. What a shame I was looking forward to meeting everyone. :-(
Posted by Wanda March 31, 2011Hi Wanda, the location is only 5 blocks away from Dallas BBQ. 5 Blocks, that's it....
Posted by Nancy March 31, 2011Houndstooth is a great place. I'm so glad it changed from Dallas BBQ!
Posted by Cheryl McCarron March 31, 2011I called Dallas BBQ - this is only a sit down restaurant. There is no bar area!! So I called the Houndstooth Pub - they are willing to accommodate us. We might even get our own room. Stay tuned....
Posted by Nancy March 30, 2011Nice place! http://www.houndstoothpub.c...
Posted by Janet DeVries Hermann March 30, 2011I have an 8pm show so am leave by 7:15 but will be back after show and hopefully everyone still will be hanging :)
$5 for a pint of Yuengling?? thats nuts $2-3, at the most

Posted by Mafia Wars Team April 1, 2011Do Houndstooth pub have internet access? Or should i bring my hotspot?
Posted by Benny Ng March 31, 2011Benny if you could bring your hotspot that would be wonderful!!! Unfortunately they do not have wi fi, but they will be having drink specials all night for us!!
Posted by Nancy March 31, 2011Doh, my wifi can support only 5 devices.
Posted by Benny Ng April 1, 2011Looking forward to meet u guys, i think it will be a great meet and greet with fellow "Mafiosos" :) Count me in!
