Innactive Forums
So i see that new format of communication for players made a lot of people innactive from forums. Is there some kind of player made forums which i dont know of? Because there is a lot of innactivity here, especially in different forum subjects. I myself was never that actice in forums, but at least there was design inspirations and more discussions... Overall, it seems to Me, that people were more active back in the old forums. P.S Im not hating, just observing.
2024 Find friends Thread (Let’s get 100) and kill that old thread
Starting a new add me thread as that one with the most likes needs to go. Please Add bilvrun have a maxed out town, still visit often and am looking to get back to 100. The other, old thread needs to be sorted by most recent….but the gap is huge between recent few and 7 years ago….Suggestions thread
Long time player and thought a suggestions thread would maybe attract attention for updates. Encourage Friend Visits. Yep, occasional donuts are nice but maybe increase the $ or throw a land tile or something. Make it a daily task perhaps Stop the animation for money and XP coming in. Slows the game and sometimes crashes Employment Office is great for getting all off task….maybe an option to speed clear and put back on task. I would pay donuts for sure Get some action going on the water….pretty boring out there. Same on the mountains Add a sorter of some kind to town hall character finder. With nearly 700 names it takes forever to get to the bottom Add some game info somewhere so a player knows how many items are out or other issues that can effect game play BREAK THE ROUTINE!!! It has been years since we had something different in the update methods. Either on quest or 5, no incentive to visit friends, no finding snakes in other towns….bring back Whacking Day! Hope this is a helpful thread and perhaps will improve the fun. Am still missing a few friends and will add about anyone…but I do delete after a week of nothing to tap on your town so be warned
Monorail Algorithm - Why?
The payout of straight track pieces is ridiculous. I should not be getting only 3 straight pieces out of 21 pieces in a complete cycle. The switch pieces are mostly useless and there are only so many corners to turn. For this very reason I gave up on my already large and complex monorail system in my Springfield that I have been working for almost 15 years! I decided to expand the monorail to the rest of Springfield and now I’m reminded how annoying the process is because of the random piece generator that provides only pieces to go in circles……. EA. It would also be great if we could buy or earn more monorail stations. So many opportunities to improve the game! Thanks.
Item Limit is 24,000!!!
I was placing stuff in the new land just to see what my bonus items would get me to before I redesign town and fill up the land. I kept placing and realized i had placed a lot more than I should have been able to. so I kept going. I got the first warning at 19,500 where it suggests you stay if your device has issues, My next warning was at 20,500, then every 500 after that until i hit the max at 24k at first i thought the new land was bugged until i started getting the warnings lol.
Out of date email address?
Okay so I know that lots of you are in the same boat as me with a 8 year old game attached to a now defunct email. I had managed to avoid the dreaded verification email debacle until today when I went to login and got the "confirm age" page followed by login with email verification. So I finally bit the bullet and went to EA help to try to get my email changed, this is a summary of the dance they expect you to do just to play TSTO. They will ask you to provide the following information: Mayhem number Origin I.D Original email address I.P address where you usually play Last 4 digits of credit card registered on the account Date of birth Full Billing address on the account Telephone number History of at least 2 purchases including items, price and date against the account. On my 1st attempt I was able to give them all of the information except the purchase history, although I don't believe that I have ever registered a credit card with them directly (all my TSTO purchases have been made through the Play Store), nor do I believe that I ever gave them my phone number. I offered to give them specific details about my town to help them identify me but that wasn't an available option, so that attempt ended in failure and a load of old guff about protecting the security of my account. Second attempt, I chose the live chat option again, and again I provide them with all the personal information required and this time I offer them the Pony Slaystation I.D that is also linked to my EA Account and I was able to supply them with the names & dates of 2 EA games that I had purchased through the PS Store in lieu of purchase history. He submitted the request but again the computer said No! When I enquired what more information I could provide to achieve the switch, I was presented with even more guff about account security along the lines of they can't even tell you what information you failed the test on. At this point I'm lost as to how to proceed, the "live chat" option is mysteriously no longer available to me, but they seem to require more information than I even know about myself & certainly more than I've ever provided them in the past. I'd be interested to hear if anyone in this situation has managed to successfully get their email changed, cos it feels to me like deliberate obstruction to weed out the old accounts that haven't paid in to the pot for a while. Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated, if not this is looking like the end of the line for me.
Whacking Day Bundle question
I just discovered that I cannot find Whacking Day Bundle in the Yearbook, despite I can remember I have never bought it because I don't have Lumpy (but I have Snake Rocks anyway). Now this is kinda scratching my head because like I said before... I don't have Lumpy. Did I miss something here?A Bart Future

When Frink doesn't know and asks the machine, the infinite recursion caused by this quandary causes a spacetime rift to open and pulls a future version of Bart into present-day Springfield. And when asked about his motivations, he says that he's here to save the future…by destroying the past. Teaming up with present-day Bart, the two Barts go on a rampage that the present-day police are not equipped (or capable) to stop. But when the plan to "pull more people from the future to help out" goes wrong, Lisa is left trying to figure out if she can save the present, let alone the future. What will happen to Springfield? Hopefully the AI Machine has another eerily accurate prediction for us, because we're completely stumped. o Homer o Bart o Lisa o Marge o Grampa o Wiggum o Eddie o Lou o Future Bart (New Premium Character for Act 1) o Future Wiggum (New Premium Character, available by Buying donut pack) Act 1: Lean, Mean, Glavin Machine Prizes: Buzz Cola AI Machine (Decoration) Futuristic High Rise (Building) Mystery Box Token Bullet Train Billboard (Decoration) Futuristic Monorail Station (Building) Premium: Memorial Church & Future Bart (Building & Character) 150 Donuts o Notes: Earns event currency for Acts 1 - 4 Donut Offer: 132 Donuts + Future Wiggum (Character) o Notes: Earns event currency for Acts 1 - 4 ______________________________ Act 2: Partners In Crime Prizes: Futuristic Street Light (Decoration) Futuristic Satellite (Decoration) Mystery Box Token Futuristic Apartments (Building) Futuristic Skyscraper (Building) Premium: Sleeveless in Seattle & Future Nelson (Building & Character) 150 Donuts o Notes: Earns event currency for Acts 2-4 _______________________________ A Bart Future Mystery Box Dates: 2024-08-07 15:01 UTC to the end of the event: 2024-09-18 15:00 UTC Price: 1 Token Contents: o Frink's Mechano Spider YB SCi Fi SD Box o The Rad-ish Station YB SCi Fi SD Box o Air Fortress (Rad Station maybe) YB SCi Fi SD Box o Re-Neducation Center YB SCi Fi SD Box o Big Digi-Ben YB SCi Fi SD Box o Soul Extraction Institute YB SCi Fi SD Box o Homer's Dream House SD Box o Elysium Project YB SCi Fi SD Box o Parcology Shattered Dreams Mystery Box SciFi, Nature, and Gaming o Tomorrow's Costingtons BF (Retail Mystery Box) SCi Fi SD Box o Ultrahouse 2 YB SCi Fi SD Box o Skyberdine Systems Shattered Dreams Mystery Box SciFi, Time Travel, Gaming, Employment BF (Cyber Mystery Box) o Cryo Stasis Memorial Shattered Dreams Mystery Box SciFi BF (Cyber Mystery Box) o Tenta-Corp HQ Shattered Dreams Mystery Box SciFi and Employment o Future Simpson's House Shattered Dreams Mystery Box SciFi o Battle Dome YB Sci Fi SD Box BF GOLD box o Radiant B.S.

Please EA ideas on straight track
Many of us want the monorail all through our towns. A simple request: Give us double or triple straight track that we can buy, in game cash or premium I dont care. or fix the odds on track creation so straight track is the most likely not the least likely. We all have hundreds of all the track but straight.
