    I wish I'd splurged out more with the Black Friday event. I don't farm donuts. I stopped spending thinking we'd get something nice at Christmas. This is like opening a gift and finding you've got socks

    Or you could have got handkerchiefs, um... lovely.
    I wanted to do it yesterday but I will invariably do it tomorrow (ish).
  • So why no major event then, have EA said anything?

    Although I do tend to find mimi events a bit boring, this is a lot better than the Burnscoins thing, at least there's stuff here I can actually use.

    Even if there is a 4hr grind and not much else, the way I always look at it is, "What do I get at the end of it", and concentrate on that.
    My daily grind is trying to get igc so this is a bit more exciting than usual, daily grind to get something else.

    this IS a major event. just different one. at first i was mad but i like it now.
  • Now as my Springfield gets bigger I just wish we could zoom out a little more so we can easily oversee the Springfield a little more.

    everyone just ignored the fact that i wrote this.

    No I didn't, I agreed it, but this is the first time I have seen it, last time I was here was before event started.

    I would call it a big mini event, no land for starters, that suggests to me it's not needed.
    It's just decorations really, no extra stuff.

    You get 12+ land tokens throughout the event. It has 4 acts. Each act comes with a character and decorations/buildings... which can be bought in store after they're unlocked from the event. Also stories themselves are great. Yes this event doesn't have music, friend actions and minigames but this is what many wanted - a change. Besides for many of us, especially those who still have tasks to do besides the event, this is super good. also, there's some stuff to return and appear during this event.

    I haven't got Lisa angel yet, can only go by what I've seen so far.
    12 LT's, I really need them, not so bad but will have to wait and aee how much it costs and see whole event.

    I think I will have to check Simpson Wiki.

    And I don't have sound anyway so that don't bother me, for some reason my SF is emulating a silent movie!

  • Well, I just blew through all my money and hit 939 through Bloodmobiles. I prefer Bloodmobiles because my time is more valuble than my money.

    And I've got millions left.

    I dont remember EA ever commenting on, well, pretty much anything. Certainly not here, at least, on their official site.

    Yay something more to do.
    Here have a banana!!
  • The Simpsons page added this on their facebook header. It's the same art used in the Tapped Out event splash screen. Shows how close the creators are in making this game. I for one am certainly no humbug to this event.

  • Who is thinking about Young Marge?

    Kind.of.dear?
  • Has anyone bought the personalized astrolabe? Does it do anything? Where did you put it? It's the only thing I haven't bought from this event and I'm trying to decide whether or not to pick it up.
  • Has anyone bought the personalized astrolabe? Does it do anything? Where did you put it? It's the only thing I haven't bought from this event and I'm trying to decide whether or not to pick it up.

    I was just wondering that myself a couple of hours ago and about to look it up...

    Just spent over 2700 sprinklies buying everything in the last chance sale.. I'm not one to buy stuff usually as it's taken a long time to finally get doughnut steady... but I finally caved in and thought it was pointless just letting them go stale...

    Found out Young Marge isn't part of the Last Chance, but hey ho, thought I'd try for the Grumple as well, had something like 15 items in that dang Winter Wonderland Mystery Box.... got everything including those blessed Funzos before finally ending up with just the Grumple in my box.... and only 1 solitary doughnut left....

    Luckily I had some IGC, so managed to RTT my way to the 60 required... Now I gotta build up again..

    But yet again it reminds me why I hate those Mystery Boxes so much ...

    And to answer the question.... all I can find out is it only adds 200 points to your 'Vanity' rating.... and that's it.. as for animations or storylines, would need someone who's taken the plunge to answer that, sorry

    It's voiced and gives useless information when tapped. Pretty funny.
