Pro tip

For many players, once you've been playing for enough years, challenge donuts and in game cash are not as valuable as having a head start in an event - and avoiding the grind to finish. I will also save the challenges once I've completed each act as well. It's a jump start on the next prize track and/or the bonus donuts for completing the act.

I decided to stockpile a challenge today, and changed it. Now, Cletus (who had his 4hr task at his home as the first DC) and the new one (a 4hr task for Krusty) are stuck and cannot be sent on a task via the UO.

It's especially annoying for Cletus because I don't like him in his Manager costume since they changed his costume's Premium status.

I wonder if tomorrow the problem will go away...

He said that you can win 3 times 6 donuts (so with 3 daily challenges with 6 donuts, 18 donuts) ... which never happens

I think I got that after an event ended, and had three event currency challenges change to donuts. Maybe it was only like 12-15 donuts, though.

@OhHappyJays Just go to Krustyland or friends screen and back to sync the game.

And I also said that if you even get 3 challenges worth 1 donut, the 3 donuts are equal to 1 bonus round, but you know....reading comprehension. I give up. I'll let you "pros" make your irrational decisions and stop trying to help people see which method leads to more donuts.

Right. 18 doesn't often happen. For example, I've gotten 5 in the last 3 days and 11 in the last 4 days. Regardless, it still leads to a higher ratio of donuts than you'd get from a miniscule amount of event currency that might lead to one additional bonus round

I really don't think the majority of players are going to have to grind much harder if they don't save the DCs in advance. In general, 3 DCs equate to less than 10% of the total amount needed on the prize track or about 1 day of extra work (at most). If you're finishing, for example, 5 days early, do you really need to finish 6 days early? Or would you be better off spreading one additional day of work over a two-week act and getting more doughnuts? To each their own, but this tip doesn't mean much if you're finishing early no matter what and it means even less if you're already doing KEM farming on a 4-hour cycle

happy tapping everyone.

If 18 donuts is significant to you then you can ignore the tips for pros.

if you are not trying to "stir the pot", then why write a novel putting down the idea being presented by someone just trying to help? You could have simply written: "I disagree with this tip as I would prefer to acquire donuts"

I never said I wasn't trying to stir the pot. You might want to work on your reading comprehension or go back and quote the right person. I was just trying to explain why this tip isn't a great idea unless you struggle to finish events or have some burning need to be done 5 days early instead of 6. But thanks for reading my "novel". I love all of the snarky "pros" on here. By the way, nice gif. Super funny and original.

dude, I think it is safe to say that you are just not a good person. Enjoy the game though.

Snarky pros is an understatement in my opinion :lol:

Some people are more serious with matters. Then you have the children at heart who like to make comical jabs.
