Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I have a tile too. Already tapped by someone.

So, what am I supposed to do?

Just speaking for myself, I haven't hit capacity so I never turn down requests. If I were you, I'd just hit up the most active people in this thread, and the worst thing that could happen is you get rejected.

Tapped a few tiles last night and I have one ready to go, too (see origin id in my sig).

Every time I hit the bonus for Halloween donuts I end up paying $100k without fail. Anyone else?

Did someone say there's a special bonus at 18k goo? Or was it that someone had an issue with their bonus at that level? I hit 16k last night and think I'll end up at 18k when this ends next Thursday.

Haven't spent those donuts yet. Dreaming of a last-minute sale for indecisive people like me but maybe that would get too many people angry to have stuff they just bought go cheap for hold-outs like yours truly.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I got well over 10k xp from tapping three town's tiles last night. Maybe it was four.

Also I think everyone got a Homer king kong or something

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I was cruising neighbors last night looking to burn off gremlins, and almost everyone was full up. Sometimes it's tough being on the West Coast.

So I assume the Kong skyscraper doesn't actually do anything other than the mini-mini-quest? Though thanks to the dialogue, I think I'm going to have to figure out how to put it in downtown Springfield.

I don't know if it's every time for me, but most times for sure. Fortunately I have plenty of cash.

That was me. My special bonus was no bonus at all. Someone here mentioned that the bonuses don't come exactly on the numbers but on the counts shown on the treat quest bar, but I was well past that either way. Unless I just tapped really quickly and missed it, but the donut bonus one is pretty hard to miss.

Yeah, I wouldn't count on it, but never say never. They did give us the free wailing wall allegedly based on game activity.

That was a little less than a week ago. Guess how much he has now.

174,698.


How is that even possible? You'd have to have gobs of wailing walls, check all 100 friends' towns every day, set up all persons who can do goo tasks on their goo tasks, gremlin the world, and tap, tap, tap above all else.

I built up several handshakes. Each time I tapped one tile was added. I left the last handshake and will see what happens.

I got 3 on the first try once. I've gotten 1 more than once and spent $50,00 for another pick if I could.

That is insane. He could also be using donuts to speed up actions and creating other accounts all feeding that one.

Speaking of donuts, I just lost four hurrying Herman's antiques because apparently my confirm spend had been turned off.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I love how haunted so many peoples' Squidport is as we're all working together to tap those tiles. Good teamwork, everybody!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Kind of crappy of them to give you a quest where you need five "business owners" and then only have four non-premium business owners, particularly when they've got at least three or four other characters who could count as business owners but don't.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

i've started trying to tap a tile if available, back out of the town then go back in and tap it again until the 3 dailies are covered. would be curious to see if that multiplies the tile for the town...only tried on one so far (will have to double check who) but have more towns about to be available

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Just finished one last round of GOO for donuts. All done for now as I won't likely get another 2k GOO before Thursday.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I'm kinda ready for things to go back to normal. Thanks for the tile taps. I think I did it wrong the first time and should have waited for it to build up. Have a couple of taps on the one sitting there now and tapped 3-4 myself this morning.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I'm at 18,300 and I'm going for 20,000 before this is all over! I can do it! Wooooo!

Sorry for the over-enthusiasm. My wife is done hearing about this game and I have to tell somebody.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Wow, I didn't realize how close we were to the 7th. I was saving gremlins for my kid who then decided to stop playing the game so I've since been dumping them on anyone who has space. Unfortunately I haven't played much in the last day or two so they've built back up but I'll try to get rid of as many as I can.

For a while there, I wasn't tapping on any gremlins in my own town so people could get max value, but by now almost everyone has hit the prize tiers so I've been tapping them again. I should be able to hit the next level of GOO but maybe not the one after that.

I don't think I'm going to buy any of the premiums either.

Yeah, it made no sense to not have Herman as a business owner, for example.

They could have used Herman, Krusty, Burns, and even Ned.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I'm starting to feel a slight annoyance when I find a Springfield that doesnt have a tile up.
