> [@gus28](#): > > I still have the donuts, I can’t even find it in the store (duff brewery that is) It was part of a bundle for St. Patrick’s day. Maybe it won’t appear back in the store until after the current spy event is over? ---

You’re right. No Duff Brewery or Duffman in the store at the moment. ---

I think I’m going to have a manhole on every street just to level up my crafting. Not that they’re not great, but I already have more than I want/need and I’m not done crafting yet. I also have more than I want/need of everything else. So… yay. ---

I kind of like adding the manholes but I’ve been resisting adding them everywhere. These spy crafting items are all kind of neat but it seems like they’ll be kind of pointless after this series is over. I’ve also gotten through all of the crafting levels so I don’t feel obligated to make more craftables for the event. ---

I like the look of the sunflowers and the town squares. Everything else is meh. ---

I’m also happy with the castle facade for HQ. Not that we don’t have enough castles, but it’s the best look for HQ in my setup. ---

Finally broke down and bought Disco Stu. He wouldn’t have been worth buying, to me, but I had his Stonecutter uniform in my inventory forever, and finally decided to use it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk ---

I bought the hammock district. I love “You Only Move Twice” and I just couldn’t resist. ---

I like the hammock district too but I am hesitant to spend my donuts on it…then again, donuts are so much easier to come by these days…hmm hmm hmm ---

I am considering picking up Adil, because he’s so adorable, but I’ve spent a fair amount of donuts on Hank Scorpio and the nerds already. ---

I got Adil, Femme Fatale, Knightboat and McBain because the latter two were a reduced price. I spent $20 on donuts earlier to throw a bit of appreciation to the developers and because it got me Jebediah Springfield. ---

It’s a shame that he doesn’t have a 24-hour visual task. I wish more characters did, actually, because that’s the only job time that I use. ---

Anyone know if the nerds are coming back to the store?? ---

> [@Labtrash](#): > > Anyone know if the nerds are coming back to the store?? I would guess not for a while, since they just came out and aren’t a part of the last-minute sale. Everyone cross your four yellow fingers to hope we get a slight break before the next event and that when it comes, it’s actually fun and different. ---

Well it looks like the event is ending today. Did everybody get all the things? I got all the things but I had some time off work so I was able to play more than usual. The last few days I’ve just been collecting for bonuts.
