The Mobster News

Well, another round on mobster has come and gone and another round in which Coffee Shop
dominated almost every statistic. They made up their mind perhaps before the round even started
that they would keep everyone within “reasonable” striking distance 00′d for the entire
round. It wasn’t clear however to some until the final minutes of the round what their
ultimate plans were.

Ruffly a day before the round ended, Phizzle of TCF built up to about 1.6 million ops and about
700k dus. He must have gone on a massive collecting spree sometime after that although I
wasn’t logged on to see it. Perhaps cleaverly, if thats a word, he only banked at 85 billion
in an effort to show a “false networth”. With about two hours to go, Vengence also of TCF
built up and helped to 00 Jimmy_Conway. From that point on, Phizzle appeared to have gold in
his grasp until Dallas of CS showed up with about 20 minutes to go, built way up and proceeded
to 00 phizzle. After 00′in phizzle, Dallas went on to collect up to a networth of around 5
trillion before banking and buying aks. Phizzle did not give up however and proceeded to build
back up to over 1 million du’s and over a million ops. He was still no where strong enough to
take out Dallas with over 2 million du’s but I guess knowing that he already had around 4
trillion already in aks felt that he still had a chance and started collecting some more.
Dallas saw this and collected more himself. In the end, Phizzle was no match for Dallas who
took the lvl 3 gold by more than 3 trillion. Phizzle earned his second silver award and Ouchie,
aka Vengence took bronze, who was never touched and collected to over 275 billion in the final
minutes.

Happy Birthday to DS who were celebrating their 100th round. Their don, Lady M took
lvl 3 fourth place, Jimmy_Conway took fifth, Jondoe took sixth, smattle seventh, ice_man took
eigth, Gotti_Girl ninth, and FTW tenth. What I find absolutly amazing is the fact that the
level 1 tenth place finisher actually finished with a higher net than the lvl 3 tenth place
finisher, but I guess all bets are off when you have a powerful family “out to get”
everyone.

Level 2 ranks also suffered greatly from CS but CyberMafia managed to take home gold with a net
that would have been good enough to rank fifth on level 3. Moridin took silver and Tyrone took
bronze. kill_u_411 just missed on what would have been his third free medal. Swingcat took
fifth, Thisismyname finished sixth, oneeyedjack seventh, the “fake” gortex aka TommyGold of
Empire took eigth, St_Cheesenits took ninth and generalhaven of punks took tenth.

Level 1 ranks were hard to come by this round, so I would like to give a special congrats to
all those that managed to rank due to the nearly impossible situation. Since collecting was not
really an option, it was a test of scabbing skills, but.. with that said their was not a ton of
free cash out their due to the fact that nobody was able to collect. Dangermouse took first,
Precious_Jess added to the strong showing by TCF with her third free silver award and
Friday13th took bronze. Mashed took fourth, Jimmy_Can’t_Play of Vertigo took fifth, Saloon
took sixth, TrippZ took seventh, peligro took eigth, Devil’s reject took ninth, and again with
a higher net than the lvl 3 tenth place finisher, Strider closed things out.

Killer ranks were not as competitive as they usually are mostly due again to CS killing
everything in sight. LadyDeathStrike coasted onto an easy first place finish by more than two
million kills. DevilDriver finished second and within strkiking distance, XoX_CHARM_XoX took
bronze. Peanut aka Scream took fourth, nasty fifth, Chimere from CS took sixth, MaxXine had
another strong performance in the killer ranks with seventh who edged out Marc0tiX who ended up
with eigth. Ouchie, aka Vengence took ninth to go along with his lvl 3 bronze and WaldoMarlone,
took tenth to go along with his GF award.

Congrats to all the winners, especially those who ranked for free. So what will the next round
bring? Another last minute showdown between CS and TCF? Only time will tell!
