Thanks for this. It’s very helpful. I think it should be stickied so people can find it better and hopefully we won’t see all these threads asking how do you Kmf all the time.

I started my town on 12th January 2017 and reached 939 on 10th May 2017. Here is my personal log of using the collider:
I am now running the collider 24/7, results at the end of each set of 10 days:
Collider 2: Level 192 to 295 = 103 levels. Bonus 139.25%
Collider 3: Level 295 to 414 = 119 levels. Bonus 158.50% (mystery box purchases)
Collider 4: Level 414 to 538 = 124 levels. Bonus 170%
Collider 5: Level 538 to 668 = 130 levels. Bonus 189.75% (4 nukes from Eliminator, purchased 1 Knightboat with rebate offer and Faberge Egg)
Collider 6: Level 668 to 810 = 142 levels. Bonus 217%
Collider 7: Level 810 to 939 = 129 levels (1 day, 20 hours left on collider) Bonus 237.25%
My bonus is made up from:
CONFORMITY BONUS 4.5%
FREE ITEMS: Golden calf idol .75%, dirt pile .25%, 2 burning bushes (1%), 6 Mini nuclear warhead (2.25% each from Eliminator task, total 13.5%)
ITEMS FROM MYSTERY BOXES: tire fire 2%, 29 I&S signs (29%), 28 Channel 6 vans (56%)
ITEMS BOUGHT WITH DONUTS: Homers hammock .25%, 5 X Beach hideaways (100%), 2 X set of flags 15%, Faberge egg (3%), 6 Knightboats (12%)
ITEMS BOUGHT WITH DONUTS, no bonus: Tourists (60D)
As I was trying to get to 939 as quickly as possible, I made no attempt to design and squashed everything into a small space, although I opened all the available land in Springfield Heights. I have 96 playable characters and 19 Lard Lads!
Can I get some advice on the best Premium items to buy to get my multiplier up? I am L939 and currently my multiplier is 252.55%. I find that I can KEM for a few days but then I have to wait a couple again to let my cash reserves refill.

Mystery boxes average 8-10 donuts per 1%
Jet bikes cost 20 donuts (including 10 donut discount) which is 10 donuts per 1%

Buy mystery boxes. The donut/multiplier ratio is the best in the game over the long haul.
I have written about this topic a lot in the past, one thing that needs to be added to this is the strategy of what boxes to pick when you get bonuts.
For the following calculations, I am assuming that you are using the XP Collider and have the full 153% SH bonus. My strategies have been KEM farming at lower percentages, and then switched up to Bloodmobile (BM) farming when I hit 2000%, so I will provide my numbers for those two. If anyone has any specific things they would like to use to farm donuts, let me know and I am happy to amend.
The first number I am including is your actual listed percentage bonus, then in parentheses, including the SH buildings and Collider multiplier.
FOR KEM FARMING: Always go for three donuts: <467% (total of 620% with SH included, total of 3,600% with Collider included) Go for 2 or 3 donuts: <1,367% (total of 1,520% w/ SH included, total of 8,100% with Collider included) Always take first box: >= 1,367% (total of 1,520% w/ SH included, total of 8,100% with Collider included)
FOR BM FARMING: Always go for three donuts: <747% (total of 900% with SH included, total of 5,000% with Collider included) Go for 2 or 3 donuts: <1,997% (total of 2,150% w/ SH included, total of 11,250% with Collider included) Always take first box: >= 1,997% (total of 2,150% w/ SH included, total of 11,250% with Collider included)
A little help from those who know please?
I have about $250 million IGC, 260% multiplier, 370 donuts, at Level 501.
Am I in a good position to KEM or Rat Truck farm, and what I’d the better proposition in my place?
I can commit to 4 hour check-in intervals, as I also have the She She Lounge hopping while Patty smokes all day.
With the SH additional multiple, I’m over 500% xp.
The Beach Hideaways are an excellent value! Everyone should get all 5 as soon as possible.
I just did this and upgraded them all. I’m going to create a swell interconnected resort. I’m still figuring out the hidden bonus, but private islands will be easier to integrate than the modern houses.
I have a question on the hidden bonus: Do the valet parking and deluxe condo have to be at their level 5 skin to get the bonus? I generally prefer them smaller.

None of the buildings have to be at any particular level/skin to get the bonus. Also, none of the extra "parts" for the mansions need be out.
Only the private island needs to be at least level 2 for the bonus.
Thanks, @daved7637397 - I saw that the island could be level 2, but I wanted to make sure about the others. I use the level 1 valet parking for my Powell’s motors showroom.

Also SH only adds 153% max if you have the buildings out and the islands at the correct level.
The beach hideaways count towards your regular multiplier not the hidden.
