The Simpsons: Tapped Out

Mars Bar

I think it was it was between Valentine's and Paddy's 2013. Surprised to read that the game had been out a year already by then.

Playing since after valentines 2012. But there is probably iOS players playing longer than me.

Same here. Just at the end of the event. That I didn't know was an event! With no neighboreenos.



The game would have got real boring real quick if I hadn't found this thread. Plus, I wouldn't have known what was going on half the time without your updates. Thanks for that. It's appreciated. Ended up in 6th place on my leaderboard. I'm hanging in there to see if KrappyLand becomes less krap. I think they should just do away with the 'travel to' bit, and just emalgamate the two environments.

Question for the players here, who's the longest playing? I joined just after the very first Halloween event, my first in-app update was a Thanksgiven event with a few parade ballons.

Snap! Was a nightmare how buggy it was and how often it would crash...

I actually hated this event, it was impossible to get everything unless your logging in multiple times a day. When it comes to the Simpsons the Halloween episodes are always my favourites, and I had high hopes for this update.

To be honest I'm thinking of deleting the app, I've found it more of a chore than a game lately, I just don't want to remove it and find I've missed something good I've been playing almost 2 years now and have the majority of things but I think it could be coming to an end.

I missed a few days every now and then but still got everything. At least once a day and friend visits and you should have been fine. Anything less and you would struggle though.

I was the same really, I missed the odd day, so I'd go a little over 24hours without logging in but I still struggled to get everything. Had to use donuts to get the last few things.

I agree that if it wasn't for corkie I would of missed a lot and not enjoyed it that much. Your efforts don't go unnoticed

Just got the UBO with 12 hours 20 minutes remaining.

Anyone need Gremalien things for a final push?

Yeah, if you have 4 or 5 hundred to spare. Way off the target, missed a few days and fell behind. Might spent the donuts to get the UBO.

hoodwinked

this is my first event getting everything, no random luck wheels, no needing 100+ friends to get prizes,


this event was a success for me!

Just started playing his recently. No idea what you're all talking about

cee_jay

I started playing just before Halloween 2012. I had no idea what was going on with that every, all I remember is correct sausage type things!
I missed a lot of Whacking Day, had gotten a bit bored of it around then.
Didn't really enjoy this event as I didn't have time to be logging in multiple times a day, been too busy with work/college for the commitment it needed.

It's a skin for Mr Burns.

I got everything except the tribal hut thing. I seemed to get a good few donuts in treat bags today but I don't think it's worth spending them on the hut.

Thanks

Don't bother with the hut, it only gives you 3 gremlins once a day, and the event is over in 7 hours!

Is it worth 60 donuts for the UBO then?! Seems a bit much for a skin.
Thanks 5hamr0ck!!

It is kinda cool, but then a lot of the skins are the first time you see them.

Worth 5 donuts.

Just thinking, the natural colour TO is going to look kinda jarring tomorrow. Looking forward to the return of the snow.

corkie

There is also two Friendship Prizes.

Sorry I missed the in game update.
Was checking for an app-store update must of the day, when is this event going to end.

Need an app store update so I can run the game on my Nexus 9 and update my nexus 7(2012) to Android L.


I assume it okay to tap grem-aliens again, as the option to win U.B.O is gone?

marcbrophy

Tapped out working fine for me with Lollipop on Nexus 5.

Still not working for you corkie?

It's not available on the store for nexus 9, device incompatible!
I installed it from my Nexus 7 but it just crashes!

I'm still hesitant to update my Nexus 7 to L.

Anyone else have Simpsons working on Nexus 7 (2012) running L?

Never-mind I took the plunge and flashed the factory image without wiping data.

marcbrophy

Does it still crash on the N7 after updating the OS?

That may be a hardware issue as my N7 even on KitKat struggles with this game at the best of times.
