Anybody know if this is working on Firefox 3.0.5? I have had the code installed for 48 hours and see none of the differences other people report seeing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You guys might want to try http://apps.facebook.com/mobexpandr/ Its basically like a thread of users who've opted-in to receive your invites so your not adding randoms and allows you to change your status once your mob is full giving newer users a chance to grow their mob

Andy if you need to test the script and you have to many people in your mob, you can always start another facebook account to test it. Remember groups can start facebook accounts, they just need a new e-mail address.

Well you install the plugin for firefox called "Live HTTP Headers"

1. Open the plugin and uncheck the box that says capture at the bottom.
2. Get to the page where you invite people from your friends list.
3. Check the capture box.
4. Invite a single friend.
5.There will be a list of stuff that happens, sectioned off with lines. In the 3rd section you want to find the first line which says something like http://apps.facebook.com/mob/do.php or something. It ends in do.php I'm pretty sure, I can't check now because my mob is full so I can't see the invite page on mobwars.
6. highlight that line and click replay.
7. Then in the next window that opens look at the bottom section and you will find the User ID listed. Just change the ID and press replay. Viola. That person will receive a mobwars invite and once they accept will be in your mob.

You can just go to the recently added page and view the source and search for "User_ID" and then just add them useing the header.

Here explains how to get multiple friends to invite. Look for GNomads post. You do need to add them as a friend, but it is a lot quicker than the add me threads.

After that I used Live HTTP Headers to send invites from the recently added list. I don't have time to post the instructions but I will before the day is over. I have already added/invited 26 people within the last 5 mins.

Live HTTP Header basically was what was used the the script before MW did the check to make sure they are on your friend list. It is great because these invites are not restricted to the MW invite restriction.

Just stop being so lazy people and play the game like everyone else does. It's not that hard. Go to an Mob Wars Add me forum, post yourself and start adding others. Make a group in your friends list called mob wars. When you invite or accept someone you can add them into this group. Once you add everyone into your mob simply delete the mob wars group and they will still be in your mob but not gunking up your friends lists.

The obvious answer to that question, is that it is can be done automatically.

Whereas there would have to be quite some work on the add me threads extracting the information required to do the invites, which would still quite likely to be hit and miss.

Mozy_on — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 19:23:00 +0000

If I may suggest... Instead of using the fight page, why not use the Add me threads off of the discussion boards.

It looks like this is a server side change so, alterations to the existing script are not going to fix the problem.

If you want to dig out your old version Andy, I'd be happy to work on it.

I seems the next best thing to do now, is to automate this process:

Sending friend invites to peeps on the fight list
Add acceptees to a mobwars friends group (Possibly automate creation of this group, but that would mean a lot of faffing for not a lot of return...)
Send a mobwars invite to each acceptee
Finally remove them from your friends once they have accepted the invite

I am new to the game and I am competing against those that have used your script to get more mobsters. PLEASE help us by trying to write a new script that will bypass these new checks.

Agreed. Not a lot of point in continuing without being able to recruiting more mob members.

Hope someone can figure this out soon.

I hope someone figures something out with this - the issue is those who have already achieved 500-1000+ mob members for the rest of us who have yet to do so have no chance after a certain point in the game.

Some of us don't like the idea of adding people to facebook for a game (like myself).

Thanks for the script while I had a chance to use it! Great Job!

Sounds like they've added extra checks now. It is so easy for them to check you're friends in facebook before allowing you to be friended by a mob.

Maybe time to revert back to my old script which started out by inviting all the people from the mobwars fight page in facebook, adding them to a 'mobwars' group in facebook, then you can ask them to be friends in mobwars itself, shame really. Kinda pointless to make sure they're friends in facebook.
Pitty really.

I had an idea of making a script auto add them from the fight page in to facebook and auto inviting them and sending them a message to invite you once your limit is full, unfortunately I am way past my limit and wont be needing invites for a long time yet so I am not going to spend a day writing the script :/

Maybe someone else can take over the project or I'll see about digging out the old script.

I knew about this script so late, it is not working. My mob size is very small. Kindly, try to update us with a solution to this problem. Hope there is still a solution.

We just need to figure something out! there is always a way. My guess is that the the new system check against your friends list we just need to bypass it.

I'm getting the same "you must be friends first" message, and my number of invites isn't increasing. Using FF 3.0.4. The script worked very well just a day or two ago. Mob Wars published a new release recently, but I can't remember if I used the script since then or not. The release includes the new counters at the top of the page. It makes sense that they must have found a way to work around this script and that's included in the new release. I'm afraid this script is bunk now.
