The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Can you get the faberge egg from neighbors bunnies or just your own town? I think baskets only came out of the ones in my town.

I think faberge eggs and baskets are your town only. You get common and uncommon eggs from your neighbors… at first. Then just common. The egg generator we get for free is just common. Carrots (make sure to clear your bunnies before tapping your carrots) do both common and uncommon.

Baskets are weird. Sometimes mine fills up within an hour, sometimes I get a slow trickle over days. Maybe it’s the glitch, maybe it’s where one is in the alphabet. I don’t keep track of who gives me eggs, but I do try to remember where I left off alphabetically in dropping eggs in baskets so I spread the wealth around to everyone.

I do like one thing about this update a lot: I am getting a shit ton of donuts visiting friends. Every day (knock wood) I get at least one, usually 2-3. Normally I get a couple, none for a few days, get a couple. It’s been a lot and consistent so … there’s that. Maybe it’s to encourage me to buy eggs and baskets and MKIIs and stuff, but I’d rather not.

I have had some pretty good luck lately for prizes.
I just got the Blocko Store, I have the Banana Dictatorship, a good amount of fences (and honestly I like the fences), and Father Sean (plus other stuff that no one cares about). Sure I also got the lame egg pile, but you gotta take the good with the bad. I got it right after Father Sean, so that softened the blow.

So at least I got one character. At this point the only thing I want in my common color box are Chirpy Boy and Bart Junior.

Holy crap, for real? I have never, ever, before or during this event, received a donut from visiting a neighbor.

Labtrash, I try to spread my basket-trading around. Not sure if I hit you yet but I will try to today. I’m Keeene.

This morning in what was, I think, my fifth gold box I got Father Sean. Huzzah!

You have to be maxed out on Friendship Points to get donuts from visiting friends. So if you don’t have the Capital City Goofball yet, you won’t get any donuts.

Aha, I see. Almost there.

I just cleared out a bunch of friends who aren’t playing anymore. I think that I have everyone here but if you’re not my friend and you want to be my friend (I’m great at parties, you should see how funny it is when I dance around with a lampshade on my head!), my handle is

I wasn’t able to store my baskets, but I “moved” a couple of them close to my spawn spot and that seems to have worked. I got eggs out of one today.

Can I ask why you need to squish all the rabbits before you collect the carrots? And I think your free donuts for visiting neighbors is amazing. I have had one free donut since the easter update, so your luck seems to be much higher than mine.

One thing I will say that I like about the update… I think the graphics and feel for the rabbit movement, and the zapping or squishing the rabbits was very well done. The rabbit hop is very real looking to me, and I enjoy squishing the little buggers with my finger. The zapping is also nice.

I think everyone would agree that you have to take the bad prizes with the good. I think what most people object to is the odds that are massively stacked against each of us. My second golden egg spin brought me father Sean. I had no idea he was so difficult to get. However, since then I have received nothing of value from the gold eggs. Fences, a couple of gold egg piles and whatever else is in that wheel has been about it.

I am going to do an experiment on this one. I am going to save up my spins or whatever until the last couple of days. (I’d save it for the last day if I can figure out exactly when this thing ends). I will then do all of my spinning then, to see if the wheels begin to change their out put, like they did at Christmas.

I wish I could donate my fences to you. I don’t dislike fences, per se. I object to the holiday theme of the fences.

All I really want now is the Blocko store. Anything else would be a bonus, and most of it will be put into storage.

So far I have received nothing but easter fences, easter gates, easter egg piles, easter trees, and golden eggs from the boxes.

You have my sympathy.

I will be curious what you finally end up with if you continue playing at your current rate. I think you will get many of the harder prizes. I hope you at least get a few things you want.

Have you at least received the 15 donuts for the fence sections?

You have to squish your rabbits before collecting your carrots because you can only have so many bunnies in your town at once. If you are maxed out on bunnies and collect your carrots, new carrot bunnies won’t generate.

I don’t think this has been mentioned, but the PSA on the TSTO boards has been to make sure you keep your baskets away from each other by color. Having a pink basket next to a blue one makes it very hard for people to leave eggs without tapping the wrong one.

True - after hitting the wrong basket more than once, I now avoid them altogether if they are too close together.

I’m out of baskets now and I guess I won’t be getting any more unless I manage to find a Fabrege Egg :(.

Been there, done that, considered unfriending the person who put the baskets next to each other :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ve had only 2 friggin baskets this entire event. Annoys me when I see towns with 3 and 4 baskets at a time. Curse you, random number generator. :mad:

At least I got Father Sean. No way I’m going to get the donuts at my pace :frowning: and I’ve only received one tree and no ponds (and no ‘whammy’ - the egg prize).

Where do the baskets come from? It seems I just get one in my box of stashed items occasionally.

I got Father Sean, so that’s cool. Otherwise, I’m just getting fences and ponds. I want the Blocko store and the other cool premiums, but I guess I won’t be too broken up if I don’t.

Zapping bunnies. Every once in a while you get a basket instead of an egg.
SFP, I suspect I just move slower than everyone else. I rarely get the opportunity to open more than one box a day and I only have 16 fence sections so I don’t think I’ll make it to the 15 donuts either.

Doesn’t everyone have a little button in the top right they can tap to exchange eggs with friends?

In my experience, tapping that button only centers the screen on that neighbor’s basket(s). You have to actually tap the basket to exchange eggs.

Level 40. That other teacher lady(cromulent lady) and some other bonus/donut stuff too.

That’s only on friends who have baskets. If you look in the corner of all your friends as you visit, you’ll see they don’t all have one.

I was NOT expecting level 40 today. My xp meter was fixed, so that was a huge relief. I don’t think it reset itself properly (most, but not all of my xp just vanished instead of rolling over), but I’m ok with that.

I got all my common color stuff and so now I’m doing the trade-common-for-uncommon thing, but I’m getting very few baskets that way, and I haven’t been getting anything good. Oh well. I don’t know if it’s been mentioned here, but there are rumors that you will be able to buy gold eggs with donuts next week. There’s nothing I want so badly that I will spend my hard-earned donuts on, but I guess that’s better than the grinding for those that do want something.
