Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Looks like I've got four handshake tiles ready for me to tap. What's the max on this? When will the glitch get fixed? Thinking I should tap 'em so I don't lose 'em in the next update.

I'm about to release 46 characters from Luigi's. I really love these sort of quest steps!

You can tap all but one, and the tile will remain in place.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I suppose this thing ends sometime tomorrow at exactly... sometime tomorrow. Without the countdown for the community prizes still ticking down, it's impossible to know. Maybe one of the blogs has the exact time; I'll have to look it up.

Anyway, I'm at 19,042 goo. Think I can get 960 goo by the time it's over for one final bonus?

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

You have to click the candy icon, you won't get the donut bonus at exactly 20K goo. Every 2K goo does not sync with your total. If you got to say 18050 while in other people's springfields when you came back to your town you got the donut bonus level up and your 2K reset at 18050 not 18K so now you have to get to 20050, as an example.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I just now read about the tile situation, I've been knocking out the handshakes every time I saw one. Hopefully I'm able to get a few handshakes both given and received before they update the game, although I imagine that will happen tomorrow.

I set a bunch of my people on 24-hour tasks this morning and will try to remember not to do it again tomorrow just in case we get the update during the day.

And I guess I didn't need to worry about conserving ghost bombs since I still have 30. I saw one ghost yesterday and set off a bomb just to use it up.

I had a tile ready and working, then accidentally tapped the last handshake. New tile should be ready tonight ... just in time for an update.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Thanks for the tile taps! Then I went and tapped the last one again. Oh well three more days. Got about 6 tiles out if this!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Thanks for the taps on my Boardwalk piece. I think I got 7 tiles... I tapped them all to start a new tile building. I didn't want to lose them incase they fixed it in the update that will likely come down today.

Also.. I'm getting close to 2000 goo for a bonus box. If anyone can drop any gremlins on my town. I'm trying to get rid of all my gremlins as well, but most towns are full up and I can't drop any.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Yikes, I'm at 19,928. Have a few characters still on goo-grabbing tasks that will end today, tapped everyone's towns too late last night to have another round of that, I'm sure. Not sure if I'm going to get another bonus... unless everyone taps everything in my town right now! Spatula _ City

Thing is, TSTOTopix says it ends today at 8:00am UTC time but Google tells me it's 2:00pm UTC time right now, while I still have Halloween going on in my Springfield. We'll see if I can get those last 72 goo or not before the whole thing goes kaput.

Edited to add: Ugh, make that 171 goo. I checked the candy piece instead of my grand running total and I'm at 1829 / 2000. Maybe those three extra donuts are just a pipe dream.

I dropped 8 gremlins. I have around 100 available.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Story,

I tapped in your SF too. It seems you are full of gremlins though.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Thanks for the gremlins, Canis. Let me know when you tap Raul's and I'll send you the gremlins I have. I just tapped the gremlins from Canis, Raul3, so infest me all you want.

...um...

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Thanks as well. I think I cleared up all gremlins currently in my town. Can drop more to people that are close to the 2000 for the bonus box. I think I'm within 100 goo.. still working through visiting all the towns today.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Dropped what I had in your town (6).

Now, on the last day, we're posting at that furious pace that we were during Whacking Day.

I just dropped a couple. I still have 20 gremlins left if anyone needs 'em.

Just post here when you clean your towns, and I can send you my gremlins story and canis.

Sending some more right now.
