Until December 13, 2009, Mafia Mike's had a mafia requirement to purchase: * For players who started the game with no friends playing, this was 3 members more than double the number of Mafia Mike's currently owned. For example, if the player already owned 20 Mafia Mike's properties, then they would need to have at least 43 mafia members to purchase their 21st property. * For players who started the game with their playing friends automatically added to their mafia, the number required would be their starting mafia size plus double the number of Mafia Mike's currently owned. For example, if a player started the game with 150 mafia members, they would need to reach 152 members to purchase their first Mafia Mike's.
