did you do Skipping Rocks (Make Bart skip school)?

I've tried it even though I wasn't prompted to do it. Still nothing :cry: if you don't have the answer to this LPN then there's just no hope :? :? :?

The library and the general hospital are two of the building quests that seem to give trouble getting triggered. (I searched "library trigger" and see there are some old posts on the subject ... suggestions varied, and I don't know whether they succeeded.)

The following series is definitely NOT certain to work, and it is sort of tedious because of all the syncing you'll need to do but if it were me, I would try it, if only for the M&M part (Which requires all the other parts, so don't think you can cheat and just skip to the M&M's and declare victory.)

Once you complete Step One, if Step One doesn't work, the remaining steps should take about 30 minutes.

STEP ONE:
Look at your taskbook. You're not to SquidPort, KrustyLand, or Springfield Heights yet, so in your taskbook should be only two things: Tasks related to the Halloween Event, and tasks NOT related to the Halloween Event. You may have skipped something that popped up, that seemed unnecessary. Feel free to post a list of what is in your taskbook here in the thread ...

IF any NON-Halloween tasks pop up during ANY of the steps below, complete them. If it seems that you are going in circles, feel free to post in this thread. It is possible that the game is starting to give you random tasks.

If you still don't get the trigger, try the following:

STEP TWO (About 4 minutes):
Store these buildings ... You probably have these buildings.
Kwik-e-Mart
Brown House
Flanders House
Cletus Farm
Purple House
Krusty-Burger
Blue House
Van Houton house
Pink House
Elementary School
White House
Willie's Shack
Gulp n' Blow
Nuclear Plant (Cooling Towers)
Nuclear Plant (Reactor Core)
Nuclear Plant (Control Building)
Bart's Treehouse

STEP THREE:
If you have any of the following, store them too. You almost certainly do NOT already have them, but you just might ...
Orange House
Java Server
Jakes

STEP FOUR: (10 seconds)
Have one handful of Peanut Butter M&M's

STEP FIVE: (30 seconds)
Go to your friends screen and back, to synchronize your game.

STEP SIX: (30 seconds)
Log out and close TSTO
Force-close the game, and clear the cache (I know that's what I do on android)

STEP SEVEN: (around 10 minutes)
If you happen to have ten minutes free, uninstall and reinstall your game. This is probably a ludicrous suggestion and makes no sense, but the benefit is twofold: First, it eliminates any doubt, and if these steps don't work and you come back to tell us, and someone says "did you try uninstall and reinstall", you can say "Yes". Second, it gives you time for more Peanut Butter M&M's. (Eat as many as you can until the game reinstalls, except keep enough in reserve for the end, for celebration or consolation, depending on how this all ends.)

STEP SEVEN: (depending on your device ... a minute maybe?)
Reboot your device

STEP EIGHT: (10 seconds)
While you wait for your device to restart, have one more handful of Peanut-Butter M&Ms

STEP NINE: (About 10 minutes)
Take those buildings out of storage, one at a time, in the order above.
After EACH building, go back and forth to your friend screen to sync the game.

STEP TEN: (Depends on how many swear- words you know, and whether you bought the party size bag of M&Ms.)
If you do NOT get a trigger at some point (It should be for Bart to skateboard or skip school, probably), then eat as many Peanut Butter M&M's and mutter as many swearwords as you know, being careful not to speak with your mouth full because it is rude.

STEP ELEVEN:
If you live long enough to complete steps one-through-ten, move on from M&M's to something more advanced (Twinkies are good), and come back to let us know whether it worked or not.

Absolutely agree with Annette's eleven steps! Just note that Peanut M&Ms can be substituted for Chocolate M&Ms, they work just as well in between swear words :D good luck, hope you find the trigger!
