In case you needed something to do while playing the game, you might consider a little art in your Springfield:
Would this be a bad time to say I got 10 donuts in the Mystery Box today?
I’ve gotten two lemon trees…
You can only plant one, though. :smack:
Oh, my stars! An unholy combination of talent and WAAAYYYYY too much free time.
There’s a lot of good art and info here.
Is there a way to force a quest? I have two quests that both say I have to be at level 15 to start (Moe’s and Jake’s Unisex Hair Palace). I’m at 17. I thought maybe there was a pause for the Valentine game, but it had me build a library and everything.
Oh, and carchcarch669
Sometimes it’s not just what level you’re at but where you are in the game. You can be one level XP-wise, but game-level much lower. It happened to me during Halloween. I leveled up like crazy, but I wasn’t completely quests as quickly. It will trigger when you do the right combination of things. The only quest that sometimes doesn’t trigger right is the hospital quest, so keep an eye on that when you get there.
I realized I had some amazon coins so I spent them on scratchers and a few of my itunes credits and got myself Gil’s deal without spending any real money. I didn’t hit the 100 donut scratcher, but I got 2 50 donuts and a few 12 donuts.
Have you had every single character free at the same time. Many quests, even though they only put a single character on a job, require multiple (or an unlreated) characters to be free at the same time to kick them off. Some quests also, for no apparent reason just take a few days before the start. People try all kinds of ‘tricks’ to get them started when they’ve stalled such as force stopping the app, uninstalling and reinstalling, going to a friends town and back to re-sync. Personally, other then ‘re-syncing’ just waiting it out always did it for me. I think they just programmed some time in. Just another way to make it drag out longer.
This is why I constantly tell people not to kill themselves to level up. People spend donuts to rush things, people spend money to get more XP people do all kinds of stuff to get more XP to level up and eventually they get to the last level and end up with 25 tasks, 5 months worth of work, $3000 dollars and they won’t stop complaining about all the crap they have to do.
I always tell friends that are starting off to concentrate their energy on A)complete the tasks you’re forced to do and B)saving up money. With both of those will come XP. But, as we all learn just racing up the levels gets you nowhere.
Does anyone listen to me…nope.
No. I don’t begrudge other people’s good luck.
I just loathe my bad luck. Or whatever it is.
10 donuts? That’s a nice surprise. $250? That’s an insult. It would be much more rewarding if there was a lump of Santa’s Little Helper’s dog poo in the mystery box instead of $250.
This is amazing. I can’t figure out what this person used for each drawing, but to have the time to do that boggles the mind.
What is really impressive to me is how this person spelled out “keys 180” with their squidport tiles, by making a drawing of a key. Very cool.
I went ahead and splurged on Gil’s special, since I had some extra donuts from a scratch-off win a ways back. New characters to chase around, yay!
Hey, I got two free donuts cleaning up land I just bought! Yay! (I think Homer is more likely to find them than Lisa. Is it just me?)
Ok, I have a few ultra-basic questions, but I sorta inherited this game and missed the setup:
1.) how do I expand my boardwalk? I have the land (well, water) but can’t for the life of me find where to buy new tiles to build.
1 A.) never did follow the convos here about tapping squid port tiles. If that’s not a temporary/ended thing, could someone plz. explain?
2.) how do I start the “Investorettes” quest?
3.) is Flanders the only character w quests that still get hearts? I missed most of the V-day stuff but since the wheel is still up I thought I’d try to grabas many last-minute items as I can.
Inspired by the screen shots of amazing art, I started trying to tag some empty land with El Barto. Got as far as El B … And ran out of cheap fencing. 
Milhouse chasing Lisa and Marge taking Homer for a walk are still earning hearts for me. You need to click on Milhouse and Marge to start, Lisa and Homer won’t work.
To buy/build new tiles click on the Squidport entrance arch and it will ask if you want to buy a new tile.
I have had an amazing run with donuts recently - besides that box, the Christmas gifts, clearing land, and leveling up I have gotten about 50 donuts in the past few weeks. The biggest was 25, either in a mystery box, or at the balloon pop I forget now. That one was quite the surprise.
Thank you! I have one more: when visiting my neighbor-eenos, I noticed a couple had barrels of radioactive waste, but not on newly-purchased land. It’s on pavement or parking lots, and one person has a whole corral full of trash!
Is this a decoration? A prize? A relic from a previous holiday event I missed? It doesn’t look like the trash that’s slatted only newly bought land … Or can you move those around?
I think I’ve gotten a donut with Lisa cleaning up. It’s been a while so I don’t remember.
You build boardwalk tiles at the Squidport entrance. Once completed, the tile goes into your inventory. Before the update, if you had a completed tile but you didn’t collect it, your friends could tap it and get XP while giving you extra tiles. This isn’t working anymore, but there’s a rumor that it will come back after the Valentine’s Day special is over.
So the tiles are a one-at-a-time thing, gotcha. Apologies for the bizarre autocorrect in my previous post!
Not 100% sure, but I think you need to buy Milhouse’s mom for that one (Cracker Factory - 150 donuts)
You can move trash from newly bought land around. I have done that once or twice and put it all in one pile when I was looking to build something big and Homer and Lisa were both doing long tasks
Well, now you are just rubbing it in.
:mad:
Still, it’s nice to know that there are things out there that will potentially deliver donuts. Even if you seem to be one of the only people ever to see a donut from these different places.
And seriously, I’m not mad. It’s just a stupid game, something that kills time in all of our lives, basically deflecting our attention from the inevitable death that comes to us all.
I AM impressed with some of the artistic efforts, though. I can’t figure out what most of the items are that people have used. One of the pictures kooks like it was made with snowmen, but that couldn’t be, right? That would cost a billion donuts!
The Toronto Blue Jays emblem is great.
