Has anyone tried doing this with corn? If we all did this and agreed to tap corn (in three months) like we have with Squidport sections/Channel 6 programs/Open Air Stage, this would be a pretty easy way to accumulate a ton of money, which I think could translate into donuts through XP.

Apparently corn works too–$45000/friend tap is too good to pass up. I’ll be building my cornfield now–I’ll get back to you in 90 days!
I guess I’ll start making corn when I get home this evening. We’ll see if this glitch remains intact or is AE is going to patch it. I wish we knew about this back when I was actually building the Squidport.
I don’t have the patience or donuts for corn, but I think I’ll start some moonshine and place my cletus farm right next to the squidport entrance.
I knew there was a reason I bought the witch costume for Marge! I think I can get my corn up in only two months or so! Assuming her 4 hour task takes 4 hours off of the corn timer, I’m pretty sure that’s how that works.
So long as we don’t need the farm for some Christmas task…
I’ve had my corn going for a little while now and knocking off at least 4 hours a day with Marge. I try to hit it twice if I can. I’ll announce it when it’s complete and see if it works. Since the crop wilts and dies if left too long, timing is important.
I don’t think it was available back when we all started building Squidport. I don’t think it is a glitch as much as an unannounced feature.
FYI, the quest after Lisa and Skinner meet in secret
needs Lisa for 24 hours in the Simpson house.
I’m really backed up on my Lisa tasks, she’s needed for the Dolph plotline, the Thanksgiving stuff, and now a secret meeting with Skinner. I’m just glad she’s not involved in the whole thing with Milhouse’s Dad…
Is there a way that we could get an updated list of who actually wants friends? I sure would like help with the squid port tile, but my friends from elsewhere don’t seem to be aware of it. Are most people here maxed out on friends?
Also,jackdavinci’s post makes me wonder something. Do tasks go away? When I got Ultra house 2, a task for Homer came available, but I had him do something else first, and I never could find that task back again.
Here’s an important question I can’t find an answer to anywhere, but maybe I don’t know how to search for it.
I am now on level 17, but i can’t get homer to get his task to build Moe’s and send Moe on his task. Moe just doesn’t exist yet. I am not sure why this is, as the only person tied up in anything right now is Lisa. Homer hasn’t had a task in days, and I don’t know if the program waits for something else to happen before it kicks off the building of Moes. Does anyone know?
By the way, the building of moe’s is supposed to happen at level 15.
That was a strange task. Moe and his tavern are sort of incidental to Marge’s appearance. Marge is also technically unlocked with Moe’s Tavern, you’ll get her as well.
I got the Squeaky Voiced Teen in my Mystery Box today! I am very excited. I had been waffling about just breaking down and spending the donuts on him. So glad I didn’t. He and the Lemon Tree are the only good things to come out of the box. So many fences and shrubs and benches.
They are the only good things I’ve gotten the entire time as well.
If you don’t think its cheating and want to see the progression of all the tasks there is a walkthrough on the EA Forum. It tells you all the missions and who needs to be available to start each one.

I just got white fences again. Last week I hit the jackpot though, 30 donuts.
Last week, I hit 30 donuts on my mystery box as I was getting into a train, lost my network connection before I accepted, and got a tree with the mystery box when I reconnected. So frustrating.
I like your shout out to the SDMB, Labtrash.
I also liked (and I apologize tremendously for forgetting whose it was) somekne who had corralled all his or her Springfeldians by building only a small square of road in the middle, and using pavement everywhere else. Quite a crowd trooping around in the town square!
USCDiver. And i may have to shamelessly copy that at some point. It’s a really good idea.
