I guess that questline can wait another 53 days.
You can put Cletus's farm in storage then take it back out, which will reset all tasks if you want to get the Perfection task done. This works for any building associated with a character as well, so you can reset them if they're on a task and you need them now.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Even better, I've been running 24-hour tasks for a few days now, but I switched them from a 7:30 a.m. start to the evening figuring I'd have more time then to reset everyone. And I just got the update.

Spoiler:
But I'm saved by a 36-hour build right off the bat!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

New characters. Nice..

Just got new character text in my game.

Spoiler:

Build Spinster City Apartments - 391500 (gets Patty and Selma).

DMV is a quest building that will probably be available to build once you have the new Apartment building and Patty and Selma.

Disco Stu is premium item. 180 donuts - Disco building and Stu.
Pet Shop is also premium. 90 donuts - Pet Shop building a Jub Jub.


I'm 100k short at this point for the new apartment building...

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I hate spending donuts on a pet but at least you get a building.

This pet has 1 12 hour task. And it may have tasks with one of the new characters.

I thought it was going to happen now since Gil introduced the new level.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Awesome update! I think I have to pick up the iTunes discount card and wait for a donut sale, finally, now that Disco Stu is here. Between him and Jasper, I'm ready to spend a tiny, tiny bit of money. That said, I have really worked my way up by around 40-50 donuts in the last couple months through leveling up, debris clean-up, and so on. I could afford one of them on their own by the end of the year without spending any real money. Hmm, now that is a test of patience!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

You might want to save your donuts for Halloween. I was just looking at the Patty and Selma quests and it looks pretty long. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a small update in two weeks that ties into the season premiere and then the Halloween update the following week.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

The great thing about starting a new level with a 36-hour quest is that it gives me time to set everything up for the next stage.

The bad thing is that it's really boring.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I hope Patty/Selma can talk or at least grunt. Almost none of the female characters talk.

I would think so, considering how much real estate is available.

I'm still collecting tickets from my attractions and customers on that assumption, but have moved all characters back to Springfield. I've also gone back to visiting neighbors' Springfields instead of KLs. It's easier because there a lot more places to tap, but I'd forgotten how annoying house farms are.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I've deemphasized tickets, but I'm still collecting them from the various sources. It seems like the balloon game has produced pretty paltry numbers of late--like yesterday, I got 5, 10, 5.

But then I noticed it told me I had won 15 tickets and 5 donuts!

And then this morning I got 50-50-50.

Even if Gil doesn't come around soon, I'm up to 36 donuts through random leveling up and such. I might be up for getting one of the mid-range multipliers or something that comes up in the new level.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

My game is crashing a lot in my Nexus 7

KOM is at 4, everything is at 5 except for Grub, what's the best way to raise up that number? Just Krusty burgers?

Without looking it up, I believe that Krusty Burgers and gift shops boost the ratings a lot more than the cheaper stuff.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Damn, I wish they had the amounts for points to star conversion for Krusty Land. But I should be able to buy some big ticket (heh) buildings and get it done.
