Dont' tap buildings in your neighbor's towns

is this the reason nothing happens when i try to complete Releasing the Pressure task? It says I am to use felons to fight heros in my friends towns, and when I "Do it" nothing happens --- this is frustrating me!
  • Forget that. I need all the cash I can get right now to buy the new land and to farm donuts. The update will be forced in a day or two when they release the first patch anyways. Probably take longer for my town to fill with handshakes at this point.

    Yeah, most likely your friends aren't far enough in the Quest line yet. Time for new neighborinos.

    Just go to your friends screen the old fashioned way then do your attack. You'll still get credit and your controls will fix once the town reloads.
  • what do you mean do my attack...when I go to my friends all I can do is tap on burglars. I cannot "fight" like i can in my own town --- am I missing something?
  • You will only be able to attack friends once they have gotten to a certain point in the questline. Check the event leader board on the friends screen. If they have any points they have gotten there.

    It certainly seems to me that this event is like the last one, in that donuts are not awarded for tapping friends' event-related squishy-of-the-months; though it is important to use your first __ actions tapping event-related guys, if you want to collect any event currency from friend visits.

    As we all probably know, no donuts for tapping event guys happened during the Wild West event. Given that we also started that one with non-updated friends' towns showing both event guys AND usual stuff, my money's on that happening again here.

    After I've run out of event-currency-generating taps, I hit the usual spots. I'm in it for the donuts, baby. I can confirm that so far furing this event, I've gotten 0 from tapping guys, and 1 from tapping usual fare.

    More for me though, if you disagree. :)


    I got 3 donuts visiting neighbors today from tapping bad guys. Buildings probably work too. Unfortunately, it took me 1.75 hours to visit 74 neighbors because the towns take so long to load. My own town is probably one of the worst offenders. Apologies to my neighbors for that. :oops:
  • I got 8 donuts today tapping Criminals (spread over 3 towns). I tried to make it all the way through my neighbor list, but after 3 hours I gave up

    I have a few who haven't updated since before the Wild West event....
