Ingame update Terwilligers Patch 3

On the bright side, I get to sleep tonight without constantly twitching with the urge to squish bobs!

Yeah, I should have done a few more rounds of bobs last night. Came away with about 120 donuts total. While I guess I could have gotten lots more, it was nice to take a break from the grinding I had been doing for weeks and weeks.

I don't mind this kind of grinding. It more than made up for all the previous grinding. The challenge was to be quick. There were lots of times I wasn't fast enough and had to wait for Bobs to regenerate.

Sigh. I never really exploited this glitch as much as I might have. Oh well. Back to the slog. Anyone got some spare DNA and Theater Masks?

Looks like some of the crafting prices (that's cost - not prizes) changed. :?:

Edit: Cactus patch, cane field and wall are all half price.

Gah! You mean I could have gotten twice as many?? Fffffffffffffffffffffffffffff......

I'm kind of annoyed at EA for decreasing the prices this late in the game (if they had adjusted them at the beginning of round three, I would have been fine with it), oh well, 5 walls that I missed because of EA timing

My Willie is busy right now but I already have the tractor. There is a quest called Oiled Up Pt 1. Does this mean he gets to ride the tractor?

Also there is a small discrepancy: "Place Willy's Tractor" and "Make Willie Oil Himself Up" offer different spellings. I know the tractor is a Willy. Is Willie a Willy too?

I would personally like to thank brickevand408 for the heads up when this glitch was active. It was a very productive few days for me, and I never would have known about it otherwise.

Why did I not see anything about it. Sob sob. I only have 15 donuts after buying my first premium building and I've been playing for years.

Good while it lasted, got 245 donuts and have load of seeds to distribute to neighbours, I don't think it was an insiders thing, I'm hardly a forum regular (well I lurk a bit), info was freely available via PM.

While I understand it was a glitch and the less it was talked about the better.. Im disappointed that I didn't know about it. While I may not post much on here, I am on here quite often just lurking around reading about whats going on trying to keep up with the game. Not fun being an outsider!

It was posted on the forum here http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/10334584.page#34926985

I too am a bit dissappointed that I had not heard about this. The thread referenced above sunk pretty fast, so it is easy to see why I (and others) missed it.

Doesn't look like the strategy to keep this off the board affected EA's awareness of it

I thought this was a place to share pertinent info about the game with everyone, a shame that it is also a place where you need to be an insider to get the whole scoop.

I don't think that's necessarily a fair statement. I only found out about it a couple days ago while reading a post, did a quick search, found the original thread and tried it. Nobody offered me the secret, but I found it easily enough. I did see that there were lots of people asking for PMs, which they apparently received. I think if it was described in detail on the forum every time someone asked about it, it would have been fixed earlier.

I've been playing for 2 years and there's never been a glitch quite like this one (that I can remember). So maybe cut us all some slack for trying to handle it delicately?

I like to publicly thank Heilikiten who I think was the first to post on this. I would have never seen that post, except I was staying up until midnight to start my next Cecil task. I pmed a thanks, and then watched as only one other person posted on that original thread. The rest was a balancing act to get the word out without killing it too soon. Good job all!
