I want to keep playing at least through the next Halloween event, because the last two have been so fun, but I don't know if I can hang in there through all the conflicting questlines/demands happening currently.To keep earning enough AB to hit the daily and weekly prize targets I must keep on top of who's assigned to what tasks and for how long---I know this is just a typical part of playing the game, but the prize target timeframes and requirements just seem tighter than usual this time around, and it also seems like there are more conflicts this time around: the same Springfielders required on multiple tasks/quests (e.g., ongoing tap ball -related quests and tasks, daily "training" tasks, 4th of July, Burns with the softball quests, Bart & D's separate questline, Alley McBalls---it's getting hard to keep track of who's doing what, for how long, and on which questline). I also need to keep playing as many tap ball games as possible to keep upgrading my players (and earning the AB for the weekly prizes). Meanwhile the game nags me to buy stadium upgrades (that it seems like I'll eventually earn with AB anyway) every time I log in. Finally, it seems I can't get through my daily neighbor visits without being kicked out of the game several times. The number of premium items folded into the tap ball event and 4th of July events is kind of annoying too.Again, I'm not just game-bashing. I've loved TSTO for a long time. But lately, playing feels more like a chore than fun and it makes me wonder if Halloween and Christmas will be just as demanding this year. :? +1. I love the game but it is becoming a chore, i have enough of that irl.

Different strokes... Sorry you are feeling it's a chore. If I felt like that, I'd be asking if it was time for a break.I'm loving it. Two level 54 towns. And just started competing in the Race to the Finish with a brand new town. Check out the thread on that.Good luck, whatever you decide to do.

I enjoy the side quests for the variety aspect. The frustrating part is when they don't pay event currency on a character who is an earner on other tasks. I've noticed this time around there are more paying out than before, but still not 100%.

Not that well lately, but I don't think it has to do with TSTO. :)

I'm retired. Makes a huge difference when you do not have a job.

But I'm minor league on the number of towns. We have one forum regular that was doing 11 at a time. She's also retired.

That explains a lot... I work and have two boys, 3,5 years and 1,5 years so they are my priority.
I hope when i retire i still play this game ( and problebly have more than one but 11 waaauw...)
But since our goverment is forcing us to work until we are at least 67, i'm almost halfway there :p

Sorry for the typos english is not my mothertongue

I have to admit that I was not happy that they added a mini-event inside the main event. The 4th of July event could have been a day at most or could have been ignored altogether or even given a part of the main questline but not its own concurrent questline.

The thing with this is just go for the daily prizes first, then do the main questline second. ABs come along but at this point what's the point in earning them unless it's to make more balls and even then it's out of your hands what happens with the community prizes so there's no point in making more- just earn them but earn them because you want to not because you have to.
