Memorial Bridge ideas

Here is the bridge with Lisa and Bleeding Gums playing.....


This is the decomissioned bridge in my town.

That's a really nice transition with the Canadian border. It's a tricky one to place, it'll take me a bit of playing around before I'm happy with it:

How do you have that already? Do you people not sleep? Or is it that you have enough spare donuts to speed your way through the event?

That is one lazy designed bridge. From the inside of one mountain to another? Boooo

Donuts. Once you get to the point of making them easily, you can just zip through, if you want. But, then you have nothing to do for two weeks.

I'd love to be able to stick this between two mountains. ( Hint, hint, EA. )

Donut-rushing can leave you bored for a lot of the event but in this case I have a bit of designing I can enjoy taking my time with - the bridge is so tricky I think I'll be working with it for a while yet.

I don't mind rushing, either. Sometimes I get anxious, so I just get all the stuff so I don't miss anything. And I don't mind down time.

Plus life gets in the way. Running 4 towns I need it done when I actually get some time.

Running even two towns is next-level tapping, I don't know how you manage it

I'm doing 4 towns as well. My secret is synchronization. What you do in one town you do in the others.
I just started the 4th town recently to find out some stuff like:

• what's in the Yearbook from the start (and what column does it appear in)
• is there some trick to get Sideshow Bob on Android (no luck with that so far).

It was a major pain catching up town 4 to the point where it's just one more set of actions to repeat (Where's Maggie / tap buildings / event activity / send characters on tasks). I still make mistakes sometimes though. Yesterday I forgot to tap out the Event characters in town 4 when I had run-over: I only needed 4 Vinyl Records to complete the round and get the prize but I forgot to tap that town until all of the characters were finished with the task. So then I had to send fewer characters on the Event task for the next round to keep it all even. And it throws me off badly when one device gets 'stuck' and the game won't load. (Yes, each one is on a different device. Can you say "Special Sale Price"? Yes you can...)
Actually... I'm not quite ready to start KEM farming in town 4. I'm trying to build my Blue House farm up a little more before I start so I won't run out of cash before the end of the day.

It'd be cool if you could tile the screen so all 4 towns could be worked on at the same time

Ooh err missus!
Sounds like something Quimby might say to Miss Springfield in the Sleep EAZY motel.

Everything would be too small to tap. My tablets are 8 inch models and the phone I'm playing on is nearly half the size of those. Now if I had one of those BIG iPads...
But I can only tap one thing at a time anyway. I'm a little ambidextrous but not enough for fine detail work.

I don’t know the dimensions of either my tablet or my phone without looking it up, but my tablet screen would accommodate 4 phone-sized tiles. Maybe I could use a bigger phone.

My phone is this big...

It’s pie-in-the-sky in any case. Sorry for the thread derail. Back on track, I think I'll be sticking with this design for a while (until @JJR2112 comes up with one so good I'll have to steal it):

LOL... too much pressure Still tinkering with mine. Trying to make a canyon scene with it but sometimes there just aren't enough rocks.

Hiding the join with water is tricky. Here's what I did.
