Best items to get from Yearbook?

^^ S'pose I could bother fixing my printer and just cross off what I get, but that's no fun !!

@frosted1414 : The first thing I did was make a spreadsheet. And yes, you can manually manipulate it but... It takes forever and then you have to read through it line by line. Remember: the Yearbook changes every time you buy something, not once a week.
The program I'm writing will allow you to hit a button and show how may times you need to hit refresh to get 5 items you WANT to come up together. Or at least 4 items - I froze my computer a couple of times scanning for 5 and had to put a limit on it. Either that or I had my code wrong. But my (messed up early version) program would find 4 items together just a few Refreshes down from where I was that I'd missed when eyeballing my way through.

From a look at those arrays you may actually need 3 data sets - Item, desired and owned - unless the list is from going through your own yearbook ( it'd be a shame to delete from the arrays then start a second town and redo it - but I suppose you could use an "Initial set" and a "Working set" - just don't include a reset without adding an are you sure or three !! )
It's a shame you couldn't read the in-game code for refreshing it, I bet that would really help.

I looked into working it that way. It would have massively complicated things. The colors are the indicators of desired or not, and also act as HTML code to color my data for display. Red is 'don't want', green is want. I'm now thinking of adding Yellow for 'If it comes up', but... It would increase 5 hits but vastly increase the coding.
I just re-wrote the code back to using 2 dimensional arrays. I broke the program. Hopefully I can fix it after I've had some sleep. I think I got all the typos fixed, and all the "Oh, it should be written like THIS" mistakes. It's the Ding Dang "the first element of an array is indexed zero" problem where you have to offset everything by one in one direction or the other. I can never keep track!

I compiled the list from 2 sources: a website that listed all the items (with errors) and a testing game I started almost purely for the purpose of figuring out not just WHAT was in the Yearbook, but WHAT ORDER it appeared in. Although I was also curious about how long it would take to get to the point of generating 150 donuts a day by pumping all the donuts you collected into Burns Mystery Boxes (and Marching Bands, and Spooky Forest Bundles, and...).

I have 3 regular towns and a testing town. So all you have to do is change the array script name at the top to change towns. I even have an example already written into the program.

Yes, it would. There is already an item from the website in my list that I haven't found yet. I'm guessing it's a mistake, but I could be wrong. I also don't know where the Stonecutter skins fit into the list when they appear, and probably won't until I get my testing town built up to where I can buy things from the Yearbook.

Getting to 2400% bonus is a nice target.
That'd give a million XP for every 4 KEMs so 4 sets of 45 KEMs would be 135 Ds a day and you'd easily pick up another 5 million XP from jobs and buildings I'd bet.

I'm aiming at 1900% and 2 28 KEM fields, costs more for 56 of 'em but should hit about 150 Ds/day, or even 2 32 KEM fields - that'd be 153 Ds plus town taps !!
Then there's my A town, ironically just reread that 30k Ds thread and did the maths, about to post . . .

Well before this year's Christmas event started, I spent most of my donuts obtaining Mount Carlmore, Father Sean,Blue Knight Nerd and the Boardwalk Fountain outta my Yearbook.

Still trying to save up enough donuts to get the Reeducation Centre though.

On a Yearbook related note, I managed to get the Nativity Scene, Angel Lisa Giant Snow Globe and Annual Gift man all for free using tickets from the Santa's Wonderland mystery box for this year's Christmas event.

All these items have now boosted my multiplier up to 230% now btw.

I got three more Yearbook items outta the Santa's Wonderland box - Eskemi-Moes, Jewish Heaven and Springfield Skating Rink.

I unlocked yet three more Yearbook items from the Santa's Wonderland box - Bonestorm Santa, Chinese Restaurant and the Gingerbread House.

I am pleased to get Suzanne the Witch for free.

I unlocked another two more Yearbook items from the Santa's Wonderland box , the Spruce Caboose and Ebenezer Burns.

Sigh, I really want Rabbi Krustofsky and Barney's Plow King skin all unlocked and in my town in particular from that box.

Today, I unlocked two more Yearbook characters from the Santa's Wonderland box.

I got The Peak Inn and King Winter.
