I went on a little spending spree. I got Shiva, he of many arms. He seems mellow, and he’s helping battle the aliens. I also bought a mystery box, and got the ski lift. I wasn’t especially thrilled about that, until I realized that it also came with Stupid Sexy Flanders! ---

> [@Intergalactic\_Gladiator](#): > > Yeah, the “Find Funzo” button helps, but they get lost in the clutter of the town and if they just stand there behind a building it still doesn’t help. Just zoom in super-close before you go Funzo-finding. When you hit the button, the screen will center on the Funzo, and you can just tap the center whether you see him or not. You’ll almost certainly get him. ---

I think that I’m going to have to take Simpsons off my tablet. I have it on my phone and tablet and it takes up too much hard drive space on the tablet. ---

It’s HUGE. Almost a gb. Looks like some halfway decent prizes, but the same 3-act thing we get all the time. At least so far. Snow gets removed. ---

I can connect in Chicago, but it looks like UK / Europe servers especially are having problems. The US to a much smaller extent, but some problems here too. ---

I am also in Chicago and I can get in. I did get booted last night around 9, got the message that I was logged in elsewhere (I was not), and had to log back in but it looks OK since then (knock on wood).
