Hey there Tribblemakers!
With all the questions on the new incoming items from the Mobster Event Leaderboard and now more information available to share, I wanted to do a quick overall on this post.
Let’s take a look at just what YOU may encounter when getting the Leaderboard Prizes.
First things first, if you do NOT see your Leaderboard Prize just yet… wait. They are rolling them out to a LOT of Players Individually, so it will take a lil time. The Trophy Icon is gone now too.
If you do not see the Prizes you feel you should have by tomorrow, send TinyCo a message from in game. They can confirm what you SHOULD have won after all the final counts were tallied and verified.
WHAT DID I WIN?
Once YOUR Prize is awarded to your game, you will see an In Game Pop Up appear telling you that “You’re a Winner!” and Images of the Prize(s) you ended up winning. You MUST be updated to 1.10 to see the appropriate image. If you are not, you will just see a stock image of the Overall Prizes.
WHERE DID THE PRIZES GO?
Depending on WHAT you won, will depend on WHERE you will find it. Here are some examples of what you might see.
Don Corleone: Once you see the Winner Pop Up, you will go into your game and notice that Peter has a ! above him. Tapping on him will help you locate The Don. First it will open a Task.
Tapping on “GO” will take you to your Inventory Storage where the Characters are located. Don was all the way at the very end, and kind of a Tiny Don. Lol.
Tapping on him will bring him into the game with the Unlock Icon bouncing over his head.
Tap on the Bouncing Icon to Unlock the Character for use.
You will now have him in your game and IMMEDIATELY jump to his Questline (no dialog starts it). This will also complete the task to bring him in the game.
Zoot Suit Stewie: Once you see the Winner Pop Up, you will go into your game and notice that Peter has a ! above him. Tapping on him will help you locate Zoot Suit Stewie. First it will open a Task.
Tapping on “GO” will take you into Al’s (where all the Costumes are) and to Zoot Suit Stewie.
It will take 10 seconds to create him, so tap on “CREATE!” to bring him into your game.
You will then find Zoot Suit Stewie wandering your streets with a ! over his head. This will also complete the task to bring him in the game. Tapping on him will start his Questline and Dialog.
Griffin House Skin: This image will appear if you were awarded one of the Building Skins (Gold, Silver, or Bronze). This one you will have to go yourself into your Inventory Storage to locate. So if you won a Building Skin, check Inventory Storage. This Bronze one was at the very begging of the Buildings.
Tapping on the Bronze Skin created a Pop Up in the game informing you of the Building Skin Unlocked.
Tapping on “View” will take you to the Griffin’s House. In most cases it automatically put the skin on the House. If it did not, here a the steps to place it on the Griffin House (same goes for any Building Skins).
Tap on the Building to bring up the Timer Bar. You will notice a Green Arrow to the Far Lower Left next to the Building Image.
Tapping on the Green Arrow will bring up the Building Skin Menu.
Locate the Icon for the Skin you want to Place on the Building. In this case, it is the same Trophy Icon that was shown in the Winner Pop Up.
Tapping on it will now place the Skin on the Building.
If you want to remove it or any other Skin, just tap on the Circle with a slash through it and it will go back to the Original Building.
Don Corleone’s Mansion: Once you see the Winner Pop Up, you will go into your game Inventory Storage to locate. So if you won a Building or a Decoration, you may have to check carefully through ALL of the Inventory Storage to locate the Prize. The Corleone Mansion was tucked in the Middle of this Inventory Storage in the Buildings.
Tapping on the Corleone Image brought the Building into the game for Placement.
Now as many of you have already noticed, the Mansion is… well… TINY. Lol. This has already been reported to TinyCo. I do not know if it will be adjusted or if they may start adjusting the size of many Buildings to allow us more room in our Quahogs to work with. For now, it is a Tiny McMansion in comparison to the others. 😉
WHY DIDN’T I GET THE PRIZE I WON?
Let’s just dive right into this one. All during the Event, many comments, information, and instructions were shared about the Global Leaderboard Stats only being updated once or twice a day. (It does take some time to compile and add a MILLION Players info into the system, especially when their info changes by the hour.)
Remember, you were not the only one playing constantly and making that last minute rush to get ALL the Mob Rep you possibly could before it closed out. All you ever saw instantly was YOUR stats, not the Global. So once everyone was done, the Event was over, and all the Global information pulled… TinyCo went through and confirmed every single Players locations on the Leaderboards.
The FINAL tally count of EVERY SINGLE PLAYER is what gave you the Prize(s) you were awarded. So if you ended up higher than anticipated, it may be that those above you moved down. And vice versa.
Of course if you have ANY questions as to the FINAL position of the Leaderboard for you and the Prize(s) you were awarded… feel free to reach out to TinyCo via your in game messaging and they can let you know where you ended up at. Just give it til the weekend for ALL Prizes to be handed out and also allow them a couple of days time to get to your message and respond.
There you have it. The basics of the Leaderboard Prizes. Have you got yours yet? What did you win? Where did you find it in your game? As these were limited to ONE Prize spot per Player, we can’t show off all of them in the game… so feel free to post pics of yours or email them to us as well as supplying details like sizing so we can share them with other players.

I was banned from the leaderboard 2 days before the event ended. Why? No clue. I sent them a message that day asking what happened…sent them two more at different times with the last one being yesterday. No replies at all. Sent two emails also inquiring about it. No replies.
A friend of mine at work already recieved her prizes. We challenge each other and compete in who can get items faster and what not. We play the same way. Hers went fine, she got her prizes….and i can not even get a reply from Tinyco at all.
I have never used a modified game and there was no reason for my ban.
I should have ended with the bronze house knowing my mobster points were a few thousand higher than my friends..because i log in a bit more than her, and hers was the bronze house prize.
TinyCo made my decesion very easy to go from a premium player to a purely freemium player after all this. Not to mention being locked out of the game 3 different times during the event. Supercell will now be getting my money if I feel like spending a few dollars on a game.
Still love this site and plan to still look around here for help with my freemium play.

Even I haven’t got anything yet as at time of writing. I’ve asked them why and they just sent me an in-game message telling me that, upon close inspecting my game, my game has been detected with using a modified version of the game and due to that I have been removed from the leaderboards and my account has been flagged.
Now I cannot understand why they’re doing this to me because the only time I have “hacked” the game was during the Halloween event after which my clams got reduced to 250 with an in-game warning. From that time till now, I have always played legit by purchasing clams with real money through the store so I can’t understand why I’m being punished for something done last year since I played the mob event legit.
I’ve sent Tinyco an email with a screenshot of an invoice made from apple detailing my purchase as proof and am hoping to clarify all this to get my designated leaderboard prizes.

I had to start playing the game differently because I’m swamped at work and have a ton of other things going on. I’m no longer try to complete everything and capture every prize. A total 180 from where I was just weeks ago. I concentrated on the main quest line and attacking Fort Knox to boost mob rep. From not having time to read everything, I thought for the longest time that as I worked my way up the leader board that I would also get all the prizes I passed on the way. I really wanted the drive by car, but by the time I asked my favorite Bunny realized that I was squarely in Zoot Suit contention. The top 10K mop rep was jumping at such a huge rate, there was no way I was going to be able to break out of the Zoot Suit group, but was ranked to high to fall out of the same group. At one point I reached 11-12K on the leader board and the mob rep needed to get into the top 10K was a bridge too far. I’m happy with Zoot Suit Stewie, but darn it, I still want the drive by car.
I really wasn’t into the Magic Mike event, but did end up getting stripper Peter and the lady that gets out of the limo and I’m happy with that.
Long story short, I’m at a point where there’s no way I can dedicate the time to completing everything anymore so my strategy moving forward is to go after the things I really want and not worry about anything else. I’m calling it, “just letting go” and it’s ok. I’m betting that I’ll save a ton of clams this way.
As always, Bunny is absolutely amazing and I’m glad to call her a friend.

I was presently surprised to receive the mansion as I hadn’t seen a note that it had been added to the group.
I didn’t mind the size as it let me tuck it in in my row of houses – any bigger and I couldn’t use it without a major reorg.
Although I like the bronze skin, I have left my Halloween skin on as it takes so much longer to produce coins (that way I don’t have to be collecting all the time).

I was working like crazy earning mob rep and eventually realized I would never get the “gold” so I slacked off. I wanted to end up with 3rd since I wanted the bronze house skin and didn’t want to win silver (the color would be wrong in my town). And I wasn’t paying attention and completed some of the final quests with one that awarded 2,500 mob rep… And dang if I ended up getting the ugly silver house skin.
Oh well, and I was right that the silver color just looks wrong to me. Too bad I can’t trade my 2nd prize package with one level down. I am sure I could find at least one person that got 3rd but wanted 2nd to trade with me…

Soo cool!!…. they gave me the godfather house too even though i won the 2nd place prize. i was having a hard time debating if i should stay atop to get don,zoot stewie and the house skin or drop down to get the godfather mansion after i found out that you don’t get all the prizes from the top down and only the prize u are at on the board. Even though i rather have the mansion more then anything but because ive spent so much i didnt want to waste all that money trying to stay atop the leader board so i work hard to stay atop and thank goodness i did. Wohoo!

I apologize if this has been asked and answered. I’ve been looking around and did not see it, so here goes: Do you only get the prize for the level you attained? I made it to Prize 5 – Zoot Suit Stewie and I have received him, so is that all I get? Or do I get the Corleone Mansion (prize 6), Horse Head on Bed (prize 7), and the rest on down as well?
I assumed I would get all the prizes from the levels up to the highest one I reached, but Zoot Suit Stewie showed up and nothing else did. So was I wrong or do I need to keep waiting for the rest to pop up?

Nope. Always has been from day one you only got the ONE spot you ended up in. This is the link to the original post during the launch. Take a peek at the details. 🙂

I kept swinging around the 50K mark the entire time, but picked up a bit at the end so managed to get him. Would have liked Don, but maybe he’ll be in a Best Of.
Since then it’s been more laughs with his Quest Line and being taken back 20 years with a group of friends who got Zoots and went to all the swing nights at the local clubs. I liked the music, but wasn’t about to pay for one of those suits 🙂

I was 9400 on the board i can see at the moment that the event ended. I had the clams to gain 600 more mob reb but i did not because tiny co. never divulged i was not seeing the real global board. So i was awarded with stewie’s suite, but i lost what i really wanted, the Don. I contacted them with snapshots since 1 hour after the end of the event. I never get a response. How do you call it?
LikeLike
What do you mean they never divulged? It was all over our site, their Facebook page, their Twitter, as well as all over in the in game FAQ for the Leaderboard Info. It stated that you had to look at the time that the Global Leaderboard was last updated to know how accurate your count was to the most recent Global Stats. Just like the image in this very same post you are commenting on. The time is very clearly displayed, outlined in red, in the details “WHY DIDN’T I GET THE PRIZE I WON?”.
Regardless of what your stats were last minute… why is it that you think you were the ONLY one playing last minute? EVERYONE was. So all you saw was your stats. Not the Global. Sorry, but that is the facts. You were playing a game with over a MILLION Other Players. All working to get those last lil bits in.
LikeLike
I did. I have snapshoots to prove that the board was just updated when i get my position. I did not play the last minute. My position never changed from 1 h before 15 pdt to 1 h after 15 pdt. Imho that should granted me that my position was correct. However i try to contact them in any possible way to confirm my position and they never answered. Obviosly the delay in the update of the position was way bigger then the minutes declared.
LikeLike
Was the time displayed on the “last updated” the EXACT SAME TIME as the event closed? Because in my game I know it was not. So there was no way to tell how much Players got in the last hour of the Event.
I understand what you are saying, I am just trying to explain to you that the final totals ARE accurate to what the game play was when the event ended and the Leaderboard was closed. The amount of changes… let me put it this way… I jumped from in the First Prize to the Third. That should give you an indication of just how much Mob Rep Players bought up in those last minutes.

Well now I’m curious & a bit confused. Your info in the post & comments says the leaderboard updated once a day & I know it started out that way, but after they unbanned me & I could look at the board again the whole board was updating every 5 minutes. This makes me wonder if I had a different version of the leaderboard, maybe a test version to see if they could show quicker updates? At first I thought maybe you just hadn’t seen the change since it seems like you posted you had yourself taken off the leaderboard & was not participating (maybe I read that wrong?), but now I see your comment about dropping from 1st to 3rd prize so I’m guessing you would have seen this change?
When the leaderboard began they were just doing global updates once a day & the time it was last updated was listed just like you’ve noted & is shown in the pic you have posted above. When I got back on the leaderboard on 7/1 the update time was no longer shown & where that update time had been listed the text was changed to “Updates frequently!”. After that, the bottom timer “Leaderboard refresh in:” was never more than 5 minutes counting down, always somewhere between 5 & zero, unlike when it first began where it would say 1459 or whatever every time & wasn’t really keeping up with anything. If I tried to look right as it was being updated it would say refreshing the leaderboard & I could check again in a minute or two & the timer would be pretty close to 5 minutes. While the timer was counting down my own count would update & move just me up the list if I got more hats much like before when it was only updated once a day, but when that 5 min timer ran down it would refresh the board again & update everyone else’s numbers too. I was keeping tabs on some players around me, on the prize tier cutoff numbers for prizes 1-4 & just for pure amusement kept an eye on the top spots just to see how much they were adding in the last hours as the event ended. People were moving all over the place as you would expect while everyone bought up the decos. Every 5 minutes it was refreshing all of the numbers right up until they cut off the event.
If this is not what you were seeing towards the end of the event I can send you a screen shot of my leaderboard if you’d like.

I play multiple games. Some are the ones for the Page… others to test and do what I want when I want. No need to rush or spend as much as main one.
It did start once or twice a day… close to the end they upped it… but still… it was adjusting every time it updated. In some cases a LOT. So it would have been impossible for anyone to know exactly WHERE they were. Also… keep in mind… those like you locked out that were still in “limbo” being checked to see if qualified or not. So that could have changed the rankings too.

Actually, by the last week and maybe sooner, they stopped putting the actual time of the last Leaderboard update at the top, at least on my iPhone 5s/iOS 8.3. They said something about “frequently updated” and in the lower right hand corner, there was a countdown timer (always seemed to be counting down from 5 minutes) saying something about next leaderboard refresh. I wondered if that meant they were now able to keep the count more current, updating every five minutes instead of once a day as they did in the beginning. I was adding fedoras via tasks and decorations (as I earned the cookies to buy them) frequently all the last day and then from the Don just 15 minutes before the end. My rank did seem to be fluctuating up and down all day rather than just going in one direction (as it had in the beginning with once a day updates). That would be consistent with realtime updating of the leaderboard every few minutes, at least on the last day (I didn’t pay attention earlier). I did figure that I would need a large margin, though, because of other people doing things last minute too. I was just under 8000 rank at the end, after getting the last 600 fedoras from the Don and using his 1000 cookies to buy 4 trees and 2 bamboos (generating another 200 fedoras). I wasn’t sure that would be enough of a margin to get the Don and his cat, but it was.
I also noticed that the spread between tiers in numbers of fedoras really wasn’t that big. There often seemed to only be about 2000 fedoras between me in the Stewie-only tier and people in the Stewie-and-the-Don tier. That’s why I decided to forget about mob Bonnie (8500 cookies) and Tricia (20,000 cookies) and toss all my cookies into fedora-generating decorations that I wanted anyway, in a last-ditch effort to get that adorable cat the Don was carrying around. I also chose short tasks all day to maximize cookies and fedoras and checked frequently (good thing I’m self-employed!). Every five cookies could be converted into 1 fedora by buying the trees, bamboo, and cranes. So tasks really did generate a lot of fedoras this way.

That is what I am saying. My timer did not update by the time the Event Ended. And the numbers were jumping all over the place when it did hours before. There was a MASS buying frenzy at the end obviously. It is why I dropped down so many spots… and I had a LOT Of Mob Rep. Lol. 😉

My prizes popped up last night & I received what I expected. I didn’t have any trouble finding them. I got Prize 3 Bronze House, Zoot Suit, Corleone, & the Corleone playhouse mansion. I wouldn’t mind seeing that resized to be more on par with Vinnies or Spanish Peters place just so it fits in better. Unless they make that thing bigger, right now I’m looking at it like it was built for Stewie & Olivia. Just a bit of an upgrade from the old cardboard box.
It would be nice to see some adjustments made to the size of some buildings. Quite a few of the stores from the mobsters event were over-sized when compared to others.

Sigh, missing the first week of the event from being halfway around the world with no internet kept me from getting into the top 10K. Well, staying there anyway. I was at about 9000 at one point, but just didn’t have enough big bonuses I had time to get to in order to stay there the last few days and ended up around 11K. Hopefully I don’t wish in some future event that I had Don Corleone or his mansion and it’s just a brief bit of disappointment.
