- I finally got donuts from my Sideshow You (first time ever!) after about 200 games played. It was under the second balloon I popped, so I think it was one of those random 1/200 chance dealies. 200 games is 600 balloons popped, so I still believe that it rewards you after 300 GAMES, or 900 balloons popped. We'll see when I get closer to that count.
- So few donuts from cleaning that I regard the trash as cheap decoration for my industrial/slum area.
(Though I will probably sort out the ugly green ones. Those look like toast with goo).
Sideshow You: once I got 5 donuts under the third balloon. I certainly didn't play 300 games at that time, since I had started my KL only shortly before. But if we really get donuts after popping 900 balloons, I'm due soon.
Friends: At the moment I get an average of one donut per day. I've got about seventy friends, so that does support the 1 donut per 200 taps theory
Mystery Box: not a single donut yet. But I've found the lemon tree, about 5 sets of white fence and one bench with towel so far. - Just got another 5 donuts from sideshow you - about 75 days between donuts, tapping the balloons 4 times a day. Makes the 300 turns & means my next lot should be mid june
- I got 5 donuts today, and I think I've won them two times before. It had been so long since I got some that I was starting to wonder if it wasn't an option any more.
- So, Sideshow You still gives off 5 donuts! I just had 5 today, a bit late after all these months daily visiting it twice a day

5 or 6 from cleaning. 15 from sideshow you. I hit on the 21st and had been expecting them around that date based on my number of balloons popped per day. I have now started logging my balloon pops to verify whether it pays out every 300th balloon. I feel pretty confident that it is.
I am very confident that it is not.
Last time I won before today was around thanksgiving. Call it 120 days ago, for simplicity's sake. I play it two or three times a day.
So, if I averaged 2.5 games per day for 120 days, that's 300 games, and 900 balloons. I did not win donuts twice between then and now, so it cannot be every 300 balloons, but I would totally believe it's every 300 games (or so.)
Of course, this can't take into account the tiny percent that you'll just get donuts by chance. I think I must have had one of those, because it didn't take four months between my first and second wins.
Anyway, visiting my neighbors every day is much more profitable, at the moment. I'm averaging two donuts per day, rather than five donuts per 120 days.
Necro-posting because its relevant to this thread.
Here are the results of my balloon pop count. It has taken me 43 days and aprox. 293 balloon pops but I finally hit again.
It is very likely that I miscounted balloons because I didn't remember to log them every day. I assumed 6 balloons on the days that I forgot because I probably would have remembered if I had popped 9.
While not proof that Sideshow You pays off every 300 balloons it is indicative of a winning trend for my game on my tablet. On my previous 2 wins I was able anticipate winning donuts just by keeping a sloppy running total in my head.
I have started a new count towards the next donut win.
Sorry about the blurry photo. My tablet won't let me use the screen capture button while the menu is popped up (to show the date) so I had to use my phone to take a picture of my tablet.

Balloon pop record
http://i495.photobucket.com/albums/rr313/angst129/5c6a3a32-a20f-4e69-b286-ce8093801ec0.jpg - I only got 2 from visiting friends (after Stampy, I never find them even though I've been maxed out forever), I won Sideshow You twice, 30 in a mystery box once, and probably 5 from cleaning. So 47 overall?
- I've gotten 5-6 donuts from cleaning up. And I have received 5 donuts from Sideshow You 4 different times now. I try to visit KL at least 2 times per day, in order to keep the visits up until I reach the 100 visits and get the 5 free donuts. I sometimes am able to visit 3 times per day. If you visit 3 times per day every day, you will get 5 free donuts every 33 days or so, and 11 wins, or 55 free donuts, per year. It is a pretty reliable way to earn donuts for freemium or thrifty premium players.

Ok so today I got my first doughnut from cleaning up Springfield and I was pretty happy because this is the first time this has ever happened to me since the tutorial. So I want to know how many times have you guys gotten doughnuts from cleaning up Springfield? Then this got me thinking about something else have you ever won doughnuts from sideshow you? I have never gotten doughnuts from this and I know the chances are very slim. Also can you get doughnuts from cleaning up krustyland?
4 or 5 from cleaning debris in both towns. I recently started to think they'd stopped the sideshow you gig, because I had only won 2 lots, despite visiting twice a day minimum, every single day, since its inception. But then I won my 3rd lot yesterday so that put me in my place. I'm still waiting for my 2nd lot in my other town although admittedly I haven't been visiting as often as my 1st, I think I should have hit the 2nd lot easily by now.- I forget from cleaning but from slide show you I got 5 a long long time ago the I surprisingly just got 5 the other day, so 10 total.
