I am so bored with this particular event. I didn’t get stretchable Bart and I kind of don’t care. These 6 week(?) events are too fucking long. I agree a 10-14 day event should be the longest they go.
I’m playing the Family Guy game and it is kind of ridiculous with the events. They come so fast and frequent that I still haven’t finished out the quests for characters I got from two events ago. It’s relentless and starting to annoy me.
I don’t spend any money on Family Guy and I swear just doing the events normally with out fast tracking with clams most events I don’t even get half-way through the content before it ends. I’m getting close to being done with it.
I know what you mean, and I feel like there was a point where they really ramped up the speed and the difficulty. I think the Family Guy people must have concluded that they have enough hard-core clam-spending devotees that they can sustain the game by focusing on that crowd, and letting the more casual players drop away. I quit during the Princess Bride event and have not been back.
I think EA is reading OLD forum posts. From the days when it would be MONTHS between events or level updates. People would beg for content so they’re finally getting around to it. So in a year or two they’ll get around to the “OMG it’s too long too often” posts and space these out better.
If I were a low-level player, I’d be very frustrated trying to keep up levels and trying to play through the game. You need Homer and Lisa for everything.
This event wouldn’t be so bad if it were just tapping. I don’t like battles.
Looks like EA is being stupid and having technical difficulties. I was logged out when I tried to play and when I tried to log in it kept erroring out. And I tried to change my password and that kept erroring out and then I tried to log into my EA account on the website and that errored out saying tech. diff. so I went a goggleing and found this.

And in the comments some of which were within 15 minutes of this post saying they can’t log in either.
Basically saying other people have been having problems as well today. Hopefully they’ll fix their stuff soon.
Well bless my cherry-scented toe nail polish the shits working again and I was able to login. Thank goodness. I was just about to walk out the door to go get some crack to get my fix.
I finished the friend battle prize track this evening. I’m happy about that because it was such a pain timing them.
I should have the bouncing baby prize tomorrow, so that’s halfway I think. I should be ok on getting all of the prizes. I’ve been playing just twice a day or so. It seems they’ve made this one fairly easy to get through.
I’m in agreement about disliking the battles. The fast forward button really helps in that regard.
What I’m tired of most, though, is how long everything takes to load. It may be because my Kindle Fire is old, 3 years, but the load screens take forever.
There’s a new piece added today where you have to fight giant Pinchy. Also, the daily challenge for me is to upgrade fighters and I don’t have any fighters to upgrade. I could buy the Fruitbat Man costume for Burns but I didn’t really want to spend the donuts on that.
Is there something broken with friend battles? For the last week or more, I’m going up against three orange/muscle fighters–100% of the time, with literally zero exceptions, and I’ve only got one tech guy to fight them. Is it just me getting that?
I would just use the veto on the daily challenge to get the next one.
I seem to get the same fighters with the same friends.
I get the same.
Hey thanks,
I never did that before, now all I have to do is collect 15 Hollywood awards. I can do that.
Me too, most of the time.
I was the same way until yesterday. You can get Meg Ahertz as you progress through the friend battles but you only have the one tech fighter. I save my vitamin water for the friend battles and use them there, I’ve found that recharging isn’t as important to me with the other heroes in my town.
Yeah, thanks.
I did not know I could even do this and I’ve been stuck on the same daily, “collect 5 iPads from Springfield Heights” forever and I had already maxed out every resource and including building all the buildings that use the iPads so I really had no way to get them down to be able to make more to complete the daily.
Oh what a relief.
Same, but it’s only certain friends. I have like 200 healing waters so I don’t feel bad about gulping them, it’s just easier to autobattle.
You can build decorations: Classy Fountain is the only one I see.
They’re also required to build academy awards, so you could spend some of those below 200 and then send someone to make those. But rejecting the quest is easier.
I’m really glad I’m almost done because I’m so over this update even more than before.
The updates that came down the last two days are too big for my phone. I know there are workarounds like uninstalling and reinstalling, but you know what? I don’t want multi-gb games on my fucking PHONE. Yes I have small memory that right now is really full, but this game takes up too much space.
I can play on my other devices, so it’s not like GAME OVER for me unless I start deleting major apps, but it’s SUPER annoying and happens too frequently.
1.2 GB on mine. I like the Android program DiskUsage to figure out what is taking up the most room (I’m sure iOS has an equivalent).
It started working out of nowhere this morning. Maybe the pending Gil deal hogged up the data and when it launched, it backed back down.
Still unhappy but two prizes away from being all done.
