What level were you and what do you remember about it? How hard was it for you to make it through?

The first big event I played was Superheroes in 2015. I had been playing for about 2 weeks and had already become a premium player and totally obsessed. It was pretty hard to make it through even being a premium player because I was still a pretty low level.
I liked how the graphics were changed a bit to give town a comic book feel. And the font was changed to a comic book font.
And Plopper!!

First event for me was stonecutters

My first, and I believe THE first, was the tie-in with the Duff Racer. The first big event I remember was the first Halloween, with the Mayan calendar and the zombies.

I came in halfway through scyfi. I had no clue what was going on or why I was having all these strange things being thrown at me. Almost quit but glad I stuck it out.

Clash of clones

Whacking Day was my first event.

Coldshot101

As a newly minted player I dropped right in the middle of the 1st Whacking Day event, which puts it April/May 2013. So, coming up on six years. Wow...

Whacking day

Treehouse of Horror XXIII, the very first one and it hooked me. I did get hit with the bug after the event where I couldn't log back into the game for a few weeks, though.

Halloween 2012 was the first event ever, so that was it

I've played since day 1 but I think Whacking Day is the first event I actually remember.

spyder1952850

Just after Valentine’s Day 2013 ended. I remember trying to log in every four hours trying to complete the event, but with not enough characters, I fell way short.

Homerpalooza was my first event, but I can't recall the level I was at. I believe was still under Level 60 at this point; so I'll spitball and say I was somewhere between Levels 30 and 45.

Whacking Day for me also... I can’t remember what level I was on at that point, or how big my town was. I’d been playing for ages without any clear idea of what I was doing. I wish I’d been more engaged with this forum from the get-go.

Stonecutters for me. I think it started a couple of days after I started playing and I wondered what the heck was going on.

lol This is basically the same thread as "what event did you start playing the game on?"
lol And Sure I will say it again. I started playing During the Stonecutters event which is the fitst ever event I can Remember playing, the downside though was I started near the end of it. So I never got everything from it until later on during my playthrough of the game.

First event I really started getting into it was Valentines Day 2014 with the wheel, but started a few months before. Started playing religiously after I missed out on some freebies EA gave on random/specific days. Didn't want to miss out on any free stuff. Wow, over 5 years on the same game. Totally worth it. Now if only I can de-clutter my town. They should have a Marie Kondo character.

My very first event was Christmas ‘12. I remember it very fondly, I just started the weekend before while the Day the Earth Stood Cool Episode tie-in was happening (the cool brown house was one of my first buildings, go figure). During the event itself I was able to collect all the prizes culminating in SLH for 1500 Santa coins... when the event was extended another week we got a mystery box that gave out reindeer and donuts. I was able to save enough mystery box donuts to snag myself Kearney. I played the entire game level 7-24 while it snowed which gave me such a shock to see how everything looked when the snow melted in February.

Valentine's. 2012 when I got my iPad for my Birthday. I had no idea what the event was about, and didn't understand the premise of events, nor the game itself, and as is, after the first 3 days, I almost deleted the game because, I didn't like trying to figure out how to do anything, but decided to give it one more try, and finish out the first 7 days. I got hooked, and now you know the rest of the story.

Oh, and somewhere between levels 1 through 5.

I don't know if I can call this an event, but my first event was Rex Banner.
Sometime in July 2013.
I had no idea at this point that this was something special.
But I do remember how excited I was about his payout, as I just started.
