Yep, and according to THIS page....

...when you haunt an already-haunted building, you end up taking that building away from the player who previously haunted it. Turns out to be a dick thing to do if you're trying to be a team player.

I thought I had given my username here before, but I didn't notice it on the first post. I'm clckworang753 if anyone wants another neighbor to haunt. I'm probably going to try to add a few of you anyway. :)

Well I certainly don't want to be a dick player, but then again I am a Steelers fan.

I will play nice with DVDtalkers, but there are other people on my list I don't know so I guess it is ok for me to do it to them.

Does it matter if you steal a building from someone else? When I haunt your building, I get goo. Do I get anything when you tap it? If not, what do I care if someone else re-haunts it before you get a chance to tap it?

Sometimes the buildings say Haunted by ghosts and some will say haunted by "username" and you get two goo from both. What's the difference?

For ten free donuts click on the Simpson house. You get a trivia question and the answer is emerald ring. You also unlock a new outfit for Homer.

Thanks toddarino!

Looks like I'm on pace to finish this event in a few days :( They made it too easy to get goo. Hopefully we can do something with leftover goo.

No prob.

I also gave you guys the wrong screen name for my brother. It's ravioli742
Should stay off the Internet after 10 whiskeys.

The pick-a-box, get-1-2-or 3-donuts game that pops up after you level up normally in the game starts kicking in after every few thousand GOOs. And off course it still counts for the five global prizes.

awesome. thanks. there's also a quest in the halloween one (don't recall), but it is something lisa does regarding a mystery and if you click burns, you can get 6 donuts for a 6 second quest.

How did you get this? I haven't been able to today.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
 
It is a specific quest and you do something during it. Read that link posted recently. Talks about what you need to do there.

What I've read is that in part 14 Lisa goes to the Library for an investigation. Before she finishes, tap Mr. Burns and the special option shows up.

Cool, thank you. I thought it was a special promo for last night's Halloween episode (which I thought was pretty good, by the way, and the Bob's Burgers afterward always good, too).

Any guesses on what that first community prize is, almost looks like the lard lad donut shop, but slightly different. Possibly with some lighting above the donut and the boy being TP'd

How, where do you view the community prizes within the game?

There's a trophy icon on the bottom right menu icons. Tapping that brings up your individual prize progress.

On that screen there is another menu icon with a whole bunch of characters on it at the far right. Tapping that brings up the community progress.

At the time of this post, the first 5 billion should be reached before the end of the day.

I read somewhere that its a skin for lard lad donuts. The First Church Of Springfield or something like that. I don't currently have Lard Lad so I guess it's useless to me.

I believe that it's going to be a separate building and not a skin.

Weird, I'll have to check that. When I start the game it welcomes me with the extra numbers.

Sheesh, I have like three Homer-centric quests all going and only one Homer.

Annoying: Trying to tap on a gremlin and opening a house, then trying to make the house go away and just swiping it into a Christmas version.
