Zynga Lies About Stamina Packs and Power Packs

Zynga can try and shove this "experiment" crap down our throats all they want, but we know a Nerf when we see one. And this Power Pack Hullabaloo is all just a pack of lies on Zynga's part.

Please go to this thread on Get Satisfaction and give them a piece of your mind over how all of this has been handled. Be sure to hit that +1 button, that's what we need more of. 

As recently as LAST WEEK, Zynga was telling us that the stamina packs were here to stay. 8 days later, stamina packs are ancient history and its successor has already been royally nerfed. That was August 17th. Stamina packs are here to stay, ok.

The irony is that at the time of that last "Stamina Packs are here to stay!" post, power packs had already been introduced an hour previously, upon which many players no longer had even stamina packs. The FAQ on power packs quickly followed, advising us that power packs were a new feature and slowly being rolled out to all players. That was a week ago today.

The Mafia Wars blog told us that Power Packs were replacing stamina packs. Ok.

The power packs were pretty cool, so the only problem in my mind was that they were taking their sweet a$s time about finishing the rollout. Nowhere did Zynga ever say anything about Power Packs being an "experiment". 


A mere 3 blog posts later, Zynga finally lets us know about this experiment. And now I have NO power packs and NO stamina packs. During a time when there are two things going on in the game that require conflicting uses of my stamina. That's bullshit. What happened to the "level playing field" Zynga? I guess it didn't fit in your business plan this time around.

I wonder if I myself can continue trying to fit into Zynga's business plan, for that matter.
