I think I've bought one golden scratchr and two Gil deals.

^ Concur and ^ Concur. Geez, when are we gonna get a "like" or "karma" feature here so we can stop writing "Concur" or "This"?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't last year's yard sale also have more items which were exclusive to the yard sale instead of stuff we may have missed?

I have the same issue with a few $$$ in iTunes cards that I would otherwise have no use for, so I'm waiting for a donut deal from good ol' Gil.

Sorry, "skin" was probably the wrong word to use here. I forgot that many of our buildings (especially the houses) are skinnable (see Christmas). What I probably should have said was that since the Cool Brown House seems to be treated as a Brown House now (from a payout perspective), then the only real difference - besides coming with a skin for Homer - is purely a visual one.

There is a quest for Lincoln and for Washington. Having the full Mayan set gives a quest also.

"Oh, I concur"

I already have too many skins for Homer, that sometimes I forget about some cool tasks he has.

I was missing on more skins/tasks for all characters, so I guess that's the good thing about the StoneCutters.

There are still a couple of characters that I would like to have skins, but I can't remember one right now. Besides Marge I mean, that I know she has the witch costume, has that one ever come back?

Witch Marge has been available the last two Halloweens.

New update auto-loading!

It keeps crashing out perhaps due to the large number of desperate fans trying to update.

"The Origin network could not be reached at this time. Please try again later."

Been the message I'm getting all morning.

No update for me.

Me neither.

I finally downloaded the update but don't see any difference in the game.

I was planning on holding out until I owned a tablet, but Sunday night I caved and started playing this game. My Galaxy S3 screen seems adequate. But boy, this is going to be a colossal time suck. Especially because I'm adamant that I'm not going to spend actual money on it.

I'm jmblya there if anyone wants to add my currently meager Springfield.

On Monday I convinced a fellow Simpsons nut friend to start playing the game, but he said he kept having trouble starting it. I guess this was the problem.

No update yet for me.

Level 43 update. Seems to be focused in Krustyland.

Man, you guys are making me think I imagined the two hours I spent continually crashing out trying to download the 336MB of updates. It made me feel clever to have set all my tasks to end at 9:30 a.m. instead of my usual 7, but then I still didn't see any update when the dust cleared.

Thank you, chase! I got the level 43 today after again downloading what appeared to be the same content (though not as much of it).

Too bad all my tasks are set to end at 9 a.m. instead of my usual 7.

I ended up getting the update after I posted that, when I came back to the game a little later. I was expecting it to update via the Play store, not in the app itself.

*Pats self on back for remembering to check Conform-o-Meter rating before too long and making adjustments to get back to five stars*

Finally, a payoff for having forced myself to visit the rotting corpse of Krustyland once a day to collect tickets!

Yeah, sometimes it's an auto update and sometimes you have to install it from the store. Not sure why.

Some people get glitches where the game re-downloads the previous content. Maybe it gets corrupted. Some seem to have it happen fairly regularly.

Yeah, I just got the update in app.

A couple of the premium items newly available for Krustyland will boost your multiplier there. The billboard gives 1%. The balloon gives 2%. They should retrofit a boost onto some of the older items.

They should let all the people go to KL

I finally caught up in Friend Points midway through last week and today I earned my first donut hitting your towns. How frequently are people getting donuts via visiting other towns?

I get about one donut a day if I visit all my friends who are still playing.

Hmm, maybe I had gotten another one or two and hadn't noticed. Will keep an eye out but I still think this is my first donut and I've visited all of you once at least four out of six days this week, post-maxing out FPs.

As someone mentioned earlier, they're really hard to spot when they fly out, and the donut totals don't show when you're visiting. Best bet is to note how many you have before you start visiting, then once you're done see if the number has changed.
