The Simpsons: Tapped Out (iOS/Android game)

[CMYK]

I just got the pants on some bench from the mystery box.
ahahah is that some reference? So random.

No Christmas update this morning. Looks like I'm gonna have to wait until I get home from school. This is going to be a long day...

The pants on a bench are much preferred to fences and trees!

Yeah still no Xmas update, but I'm sure it'll hit soonish. In the meantime, save up money so when it hits you can hopefully buy a ton of stuff. When the balloons hit I had enough to buy all three of them in one go.

The facebook page updated with a winter theme, the update is coming...

No download yet.

The stake out continues.

[Kid Moe]

The update is here!

EDIT: Barney and the Bowl-A-Rama! Sideshow Mel and KrustyLu Studios! And Dr. Nick!

[Captain Squid]

SHIIIT! Downloading now. They got the Try-N-Save!! Hope its not a premium. Because I really want that building. Also, Bob is back in a different way and Barney and the Bowlarama and Santa Homer and and... can't wait.

[Kid Moe]

Wait, Sideshow Bob is back?

Also, has anybody gotten any Christmas quests besides the tree? I just got some normal ones for Bart, Apu, and Ned.

Great update!

[Captain Squid]

When you buy Krustylu, it appears the cannon can be bought and in turn it shoots out Bob?

Looks like Mapple Store, Bowlarama, Try-N-Save, Lamp Post and Cannon are not limited time. This update also adds the Hibbert Home and the Hospital. No idea which of these is premium and which is free. I assume all these are free and Santa's Village and Krustylu are premium (as well as some holiday exclusive items).

Overall, lots of freebies this time out!

Edit: and SLH! Hope he's free.

[Kid Moe]

Yeah, the Hibbert Family Practice is free, just started building it. You might wanna save up some money though.

[HerbertMcHoover]

Hoping for a future update with Pin Pals and the Bowl-a-rama and next Christmas having Mr. Plow and King Plow. Either way, amazing update. Phenomenal job.

[Kid Moe]

You can actually get the Bowl-A-Rama now. Barney comes with it.

[Captain Squid]

It's pretty amazing that they went to the effort of adding snow to every single object including Halloween items. All the plants are covered, the water is frozen over. It's really quite a lot of effort that went into the winter update!

[HerbertMcHoover]

Yeah, I know, but missions using the Bowl-a-Rama to unlock Pin Pal costumes of the Pin Pals (and Jacques [fingers crossed]).

I've gotten 2 mystery boxes and all I've gotten was 3 shrubs each time...WHAT THE CRAP?!?

[Blobulle]

There's a lot to do with this update, but I guess we have enough time to get everything.

[Knightboat]

Downloading now... Even the icon is Christmas themed.

EDIT: Since I downloaded the update I haven't been able to connect to the server. Anyone else in the same boat?

Yes

[Knightboat]

Yes

It's fucking annoying. I STILL haven't been able to connect to the server.

[Captain Squid]

Careful kids! When you tap a building with Christmas decor, if you accidentally swipe off the decoration, the timer for Santa Coins resets on that building. I tapped the Flanders house to see Ned's progress, tapped to close the box and it accidentally registered as a swipe, decor turned off and when I turned it back on my counter reset from 12 hours to 24 hours to the next coins. :P It was only 5 coins, but I learned my lesson.

[Kid Moe]

Yeah, I made the same mistake with The Simpsons house yesterday. I will not do that again!

EDIT: Can not connect to the server. Apparently too many people are playing...

[MyNewUsername]

My Springfield is getting better, woo-hoo!

Happened to myself too.

[Kid Moe]

I just realized that I haven't added any of you as friends. My username on origin is Simpsonsman120.

[Knightboat]

Well I'm sorry, but that's not good enough. EA and/or Origin are useless (I don't know who's responsible). They should be ready to cope with a large amount of traffic.

[Captain Squid]

Surprised people can't get on! I've had no issues, aside from a small ten minute window last night.

Anyway, has anybody else been rolling in the santa coins? I've probably bought a new light decoration three times a day. Really easy to rack up coins, especially when you visit friend's towns.

I've found that it's easiest to sit and click the Simpson family home three times if no other houses have decor or the ability to be selected.

[Blobulle]

Yeah I've added a lot of friends yesterday, and I've bought 3 new decorations.
I'm going to buy all the decorations first, then I'll buy the Mapple Store.

[Kid Moe]

I just finished building the Mapple store. Now I have to wait 5 hours for everyone to finish shopping,

EDIT: I just added a bunch of you guys.

[ems215]

Please add me, my tag is ems215

One person did not accept my invitation

[Captain Squid]

Does anybody know what happens when you click the decorations for a building you don't own? Like I don't have the Mountain Lair or Frink's Lab, but they're there to be clicked on for decor. It's tempting to try out, but I don't want to lose 50 coins.
