What are you doing to prepare for Halloween?

Pretty much all of the above. I'm working hard to get my money up again although like you've said event's don't normally cost much, but you cant always make much during them!. I have donuts waiting, and i'm doing 8 hour tasks over and over, instead of longer so i have people pretty much ready for when it drops.

Oh and this will be my Third/Forth... I can't even remember how many? I'm pretty sure I've been here for them all?

:twisted:

  • This event has brought me out of hiding. I can't wait to see what EA is releasing! I think this is only my 2nd Halloween event (edit: thought it was possibly the 3rd) :twisted: I personally think that anything will be better than last year's event. That was the year we got that heavy machinery dinosaur thing, right. Blegh, haha . I do love Hugo though! :oops:
    I've had my pumpkins out in front yards for a few weeks and I've been doing a mental layout for my new camping pit and other goodies. :twisted:
    I've got some donuts and spare cash at hand, and I'll have the usual gang ready to go.
  • Cleared a section in the center of my town and added some temporary decorations until we see what is to come.

  • My Monorail week started today, so I'm doing Monorail tasks. The infrastructure does not stop for events.

    That looks like a good way to start.
  • i've been running laps and doing push ups to be in good shape. My tapping fingers are strong and ready to go.

    iPad is charged, we've had a pep talk and it knows the importance of the next few weeks. It has assured me it won't let me down. We'll see.

  • My wife wanted to go to a store in town that was having a closing down sale, and when she came back, she admitted she spent a lot on the credit card, so as I had told her Halloween was incoming on my game, she said I could buy the maximum amount of donuts to have.

    So yea, I am sitting pretty at 2403 donuts. I had some more, but I spent them on Lurleen and Greta during the Oktoberfest offers.

    I also started to finally design a good Cletus' Farm and Church areas. Still in the process of designing the Church area, trying to make a decent graveyard so when the event hits, if we get more morbid decorations like gravestones etc, I would be ready. I should also get Grimy's gravestone and Dr Marvin Monroe's statue.

    Any ideas on how to improve it?
