Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
Grrrrr I got the premium casino and the Indian and Lisa are the only two characters in the quests, thus delaying Lisa calling in turkeys every 4 hours.
But on a good note, my Squidport is stating to look AWESOME, thanks for tapping on my tiles everybody!

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I finished the Thanksgiving quest. At least, I think I did, because I got this reward:
It's neat, and I can't necessarily complain about what I get for free, but it's not the greatest reward. Perhaps I need to remember this is a mini-update quest, not a major one and that's the way the game rolls.

Also any ongoing Thanksgiving quests and limited items should now wind down on December 3rd. The new Thanksgiving and Black Friday events may be limited to just Thursday and Friday.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I've decided that if any of us accidentally tap our own tile, the universal post to make here is "UGH."
And with that...
UGH.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I've decided that maybe it isn't worth my time to be tapping on dead towns when I can get so much more XP in ones that have tiles. If I had time to hit every neighbor every day it'd be different, but I don't. I guess I can skip Spatula City for a couple days.

My Krustyland hasn't crashed lately so I wonder if that update helped.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out

I actually cleaned my Squidport. It doesn't look that appealing, but it's harder to tap the tile by mistake now. Basically it's empty all around the entrance, around the tile.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
That's what I was trying to do. Was creating a little bumper car park above the tile instead of having a cash-producing building there and a quick click later... UGH.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I've seen some people here tapping on my tiles, but when I go to other people's I seem to keep missing theirs. Can someone please explain what this is exactly so I can help you guys out too?

When you visit another town check to see if they have a tile (or handshake) up at their Squidport. Tap it, collect XP, leave, go back and repeat to get three times the major XP. Your friend only gets one extra tile, not three, but still that's a lot of XP for each of you.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I have so much space on my boardwalk now that I realized it'd be easy to move the shop that used to be right next to the entrance to avoid tapping the tiles by mistake. I haven't had any problems since adopting the strategy of leaving two or three tiles up, though. 
Honestly, I don't think it's worth your time. It'd take me more time to come back and read this thread then to tap the town and see it's dead. I recognize a number of them already anyway.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
I always worry about that two when I try to tap away excess tile taps.. I've been leaving two there at all times so that if I accidentally tap it, when I don't mean to, I should have one left to be in place that I can then be more careful about.

How does one remove a dead town?

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
Krustyland is back to crashing constantly. 
Since I don't have either the Springfield sign or the Duffman Brewery, I was offered the Gil deal of both for 300 donuts (regularly 360). I'm tempted since I know the sign is a big multiplier, and I never bought anything for Halloween. That runs through the weekend.
Tempted by the Cracker Factory as well so I can get the character and the food trucks.
I believe you have to do it on Origin's online site, not within the game.

Re: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
The Origin website, last I looked, lets you block people. Apparently, that will remove the town. Installing the Origin program to your PC will let you 'unfriend' your Origin 'friends'.
I installed the program as it seemed cleaner to remove people rather than block them. The initial install added itself to Startup, but I removed it. Subsequent updates haven't reinserted anything into Startup.
