I have so many parking spots, news racks, fences, angels, and 250 cash. Once I got 30 donuts but hopefully I finally get something good (i.e. I bought Squeaky voice teen without realizing that was one of the potential prices).

If he shows up in your Mystery Box, it will give you back the 30 donuts (unless you get him in Krustyland). In Krustyland, it can't see that you already have him and will give you a second SVT. He will rot in your inventory for all eternity.

I got the bomb shelter. I don't really need a boost to my vanity rating, but at least I got something from a great episode.

I opened the game and got a Mystery Box with Chalmer's 1979 _ONDA. Got the dialogue and another Mystery Box with another _ONDA.

I got the Blue Haired Lawyer .

I also got the _ONDA, which is like one of the few cars with no multiplier. :lol: Oh well, it's still better than a parking lot.

SVT is one of the only useful things I got out of the old box. Maybe I'll get something good out of the new one.

It seems that EA has decided to make it harder to house farm. I'm reading that the price hikes substantially as you acquire more houses. If you already have a lot of houses, the sell price has been hiked also. Some people have been selling off their excess houses to make a few million dollars.

I got a mystery box and it was 30 donuts for the daily gift. Then, after Burns finished his task, they had a dialogue about the mystery boxes and I got 30 more donuts. Yeah.

If you own all the other buildings there is no way you have enough room to house farm. The majority of my houses have been put in inventory as I don't have enough land.

I just got a mystery box for playing 5 days straight and got Lard Lad Donuts. Sweet.

I've wanted it for a while, but don't like buying buildings that don't come with a character. Instead I kept the Halloween Lard Lad out all year, the only Holiday item I don't tuck into storage once it's over. But now it can wait there until October.

The new Mystery Box has been quite generous. The following items have been spotted:

Highest Odds (~10-15% ea) for:
*Blue Haired Lawyer (90 Donuts)
*Springfield Tire Fire (40 Donuts)
*Squeaky Voiced Teen (30 Donuts)

Lowest Odds (1-2% ea) for:
*Lard Lads Donuts (110 Donuts)
30 Donuts (30 Donuts, duh)

Equal Odds:
*Kearney (60 Donuts)
Channel 6 Van (40 Donuts)
Itchy & Scratchy Billboard (40 Donuts)
10 Donuts (10 Donuts)
Chalmer's _ONDA ($9,800)
Bomb Shelter ($5,600)
Minnow Pond ($4,500)
Khlav Kalash Stand ($760)

* = Unique. If your Springfield already has this prize, it will be replaced with a Khlav Kalash Stand.

The list and odds are from TSTO Addicts. From my own experience, I bought 5 Mystery Boxes, ended up getting 30 Donuts with the 5th so I bought five more. Again, the 5th was 30 Donuts, so I bought 5 final boxes. For the 15 Boxes (10 of which were free), I got BHL, Tire Fire, Kearney, 3 Vans, I&S Billboard, several _ONDAs, a Shelter, 3 ponds and some Kalash Stands. 350 Donuts' worth of stuff for a cost of 30.

I didn't get SVT because I already had him. I don't *need* LLD because I've got the First Church of Lard Lad already, but I wouldn't mind getting it.

I get a free Mystery Box tomorrow but I've pretty much got everything I want.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
I got inspired by your success so I bought a few:
box 1 Blue Haired Lawyer
box 2 channel 6 news van
box 3 30 donuts
box 4 bomb shelter
box 5 minnow pond
used the rest to buy The Bart Cave

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
You get 20 donuts from the Easter mission today. I used that and a few extra donuts I had to buy a few Mystery boxes.

I got

Blue Haired Lawyer
Tire Fire
_onda (already had it, so don't want none)
Minnow pond
10 donuts

I look at it as getting the Tire Fire and Lawyer and ending up with 3 more donuts than I had this morning. At this point the only mystery box item I still need is the billboard and I can live with getting that in the weekly box sometime.

davidh777 04-05-15 11:35 AM

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
I got the tire fire in my weekly box. :up:

I bought three more boxes and got the Khalav Kalish stand, 10 donuts, and the Blue-Haired Lawyer. :up: I already have Kearney and SVT so I'll have to look over the list and see what else I need.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
I got the Channel 6 van in my last Mystery Box. I probably won't buy any boxes, but I'm looking forward to getting some of the above prizes every 5 days.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
My mystery box haul
Blue Haired lawyer
Kearny
2 news vans
and 30 donuts Woo!! Hoo!!!

davidh777 04-07-15 02:01 PM

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
Three more boxes:

-Minnow pond (which I'm actually using because I once needed two characters to use at the same time)
-10 donuts
-Lard Lad

I kinda wish I'd gotten the beach house instead of Blarney Castle, but it probably doesn't make that much difference.

I got the blue haired lawyer from a mystery box.

One of my favorite episodes ever. I bought that premium character immediately. :)

I got a Minnow Pond from my weekly mystery box today. After so many great prizes I feel let down now.
