Yes, as a player who has last year's Halloween items I have progressed quite nicely in this current Halloween event. I only sped up the initial Gypsy House building task and now I sit at 525ish goo. I haven't used 1 donut to speed my tasks along.I own the cemetery, pet cemetery, mausoleum, and the wailing wall. Having these items greatly increases your progress, if you are a new player then you are out of luck unless you want to spend some donuts to get these items.

Awesome thanks for this thread - maybe it can be stickied?

Nice work. Just to add, Ned, Apu, Frink, and Homer have tasks that can earn goo. They'll be unlocked as you progress further

I'm sorry for the stupid question but is leaving gremlins in your friends towns is good, bad or really bad for your them? :?

It is a good thing. If you leave them and your friend taps them before 4 hours, you each get 2 GOO, if they do not tap them within 4 hours you get 4 GOO. There is no detriment to your friend, only good for possibly both of you

thank you. also was thinking of teaming with friends and not tapping the gremlins. if you have 10 in a friend place that is 240 for a day. not bad.

They don't continue to collect. Once your 4 hours are up they disappear, so to get 240 for a day, you would have to drop 10 in your friends town every 4 hours.

I currently have 1 ghost, does this mean that my friends cant tap on 5 ghosts in my town? If so, should I not tap any ghosts that come up and leave them for my friends?

No, when a friend visits your town, ghosts will generate just for them, just like for Whacking Day. The ghosts that you see in your town are not the same ghosts your friends see

On the breakdown of goo per day you have 5,000,000,000 as the final community target. Are people sure this is the target? as on the game it looks more like that's just the target to unlock the first prize.

That is something that people have debated upon. At this time most people believe that a prize is unlocked at every 1 billion, making the last prize at 5 billion. We may have to adjust that after we reach 1 billion and if the first prize is not received.

Probably a dumb question but do you lose GOO from your stash of it from Gremlins? Or is it just GOO?

No, you do not lose GOO, Gremlins do not take away from your stash. They only give.

FWIW since I seen it mentioned in other threads as well and in here, you can indeed get donuts from the ghosts, had one drop after I was above 500 in goo.
