Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I should have a tile up as well. Before the last update when the Halloween stuff ended, I tapped on my tile to get them all in case the update removed that glitch. I started another tile and it looks like its ready to go. Feel free to tap on it when you visit my town.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I nailed both whotony and toddarino, though with the former I only got two in because I tapped something else before I remembered to check Squidport.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

When you visit a springfield tap on the tile at Sqidport. let the xp collect, go out of that town then go back in, tap the tile again. rinse, repeat.

Don't tap anything else while in town.

This produces how amounts of xp for the tapper.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Just went through my friends' list and anyone who had a tile ready got three taps from me, so enjoy!

In terms of XP, here's the breakdown I found:

Everybody's town gave: 500 / 20 (1560) or: 500 / 100 / 50 (1950 total) except...

Whotony, mboyd00000, and discostu1337: 500 / 250 / 25 / 5 (2340 total)

JasconC11: 500 / 250 / 100 / 50 / 10 (2730 total)

I received 500 / 100 / 50 the most often but I couldn't tell you what the pattern(s) are to discern which town gives out which amount.

Anybody else find consistent numbers with what I found above?

How much does my tile give out, incidentally? I encourage all of you to check it out three times apiece, to be sure.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Are the double and triple taps confirmed to work? I only seemed to get one tile from you Story.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

My boardwalk tile is up, and I'm trying really hard not to tap on it.

Just triple-tapped Canis, story, and whotony and will try to hit some others today.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I accidentally tapped my own tile. So I started construction on a new one. It's hard to resist.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I have a tile ready. Someone already tapped on it. Thanks!

Hopefully it will survive at least one day.

Mboyd, I think it works this way: When you visit a friend, you can receive triple XP, tapping the tile 3 times, but he can only receive one tile from that tap. What I'm not sure is, if you visit your friend again the next day, and tap on his tile, he will receive another tile.

Hard to test that without redeeming your tiles.

Just hit about 6 or 7 people with 3 hits each. Sweet!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Does the tile only show 3 handshake icons at a time? I should have a good amount of taps, but I just see three. I don't want to start tapping on them and chance having to start a new tile building for the next 2 days.

You can carefully tap one handshake at a time to leave one there. Worked for me.

You can get more than one tile from neighbor taps in a 24-hour period:

- I visit story at 8 p.m. and tap his Squidport tile
- story taps my handshake at 8:30 p.m. and gets a tile / XP
- I visit story again at 9:30 p.m. and tap his Squidport tile
- story taps my handshake at 10 p.m. and gets a tile / XP

As long as the tile taps / handshakes alternate, it's possible to get up to 3 tiles per day from neighbor visits.

I've been spreading out my tile taps throughout the day to give neighbors the best chance of getting more than one tile.

Oh, my tile should be ready tonight after 10. I've moved my buildings farther from the Squidport entrance to reduce my chances of accidental taps.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Anyone having any issues tonight? I went to visit my friends towns and I had a ton of new friends. I was going through, racking up tons of money and Xp. Then I ended up going back to my town for a moment, hit the friends icon again and suddenly I had no friends. Not even other springfield.

I maybe had 30 friends before, but I'll bet I was up to the full 100 tonight.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Yeah, I can't connect to the servers for the last couple of hours. Which stinks because feenst's use of me as an example for the tile trick inspired everyone to check out my town, I'm sure!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Wait, so my system of tapping the tile, backing out of town, then going back in tapping two more times doesn't actually work? I just tried single-tapping dwadding and toddarino, but am not sure if it's realistic to try to sync this up.

I had a couple handshakes on my own tile and tapped one of them, from feenst.

Just checked my Squidport and I had 4 taps, I think, in my tile. I tapped twice, left two just to be sure.

I tapped almost everyone's tile once. I will tap it again tomorrow morning. And a third time later in the afternoon.

That way you may be able to get 3 tiles from me.
