Blue Haired Lawyer, Rich Texan, or Arnie Pye?

Prev1
Arnie is extremely annoying, so I wouldn't recommend him. I like the blue haired lawyer, he has a cool task where mr. Burns rides on his back lol. It's a 16hr task.

    Arnie give you a 2 day at channel 6 which is nice for stackables. His "fly helicopter" is cool in the beginning but the novelty wears off after you click him 50 times trying to decorate or collect other stuff because he gets in the way. The RT has some nice outside tasks and if I remember correctly a pretty funny story line. The BHL's tasks are pretty bland and so is his story line. But with all that said, just get the one you really what.

    Personally, I'd go for the Rich Texan, I like his voice and his visible tasks are funny to me. I don't have the lawyer, but I do have Arnie. Arnie is okay but a lot of people find him annoying.

    I probably shouldn't vote since I only own the Texan, but I'd still pick him - he has the best lines in the whole game!

    Annoying he doesn't have a 4-hour task, though...

    If you need money, Arnie is the way to go. I make 150,000 most days from his channel 6 stackable in addition to his money from doing 8 or 24 hour tasks. He has a 1 and 12 hour helicopter task, but like mentioned above, the novelty wears off.

    I'd hold off. There's a chance that we'll be getting a big update pretty soon with limited items that you might want even more, so until the valentine's update launches, save your doughnuts.

    Ratings per category (best to worst):

    For story: Rich Texan, Blue Haired Laywer, Arnie Pye

    For tasks: Rich Texan, Blue Haired Laywer, Arnie Pye (Arnie's helicopter wears off when you wish to do anything in your town - meaning you wish you didn't put him on that task. Also majority of Arnie's tasks are visible and he moves around making him hard to hide/find)

    "Other" perks: Arnie Pye, Blue Haired Lawyer, Rich Texan
    -Arnie Pye gives a 2 day 'task' to Channel 6, Blue Haired Lawyer has a joint task with Mr. Burns, Rich Texan doesn't offer anything additional. Rich Texan is also missing a 4 hour task (but has a 3 hour one..?).

    Arnie's 24 hr task is an investigative report similar to Brockman's, so that can eliminate the annoyance, plus his 2-day channel 6 broadcast can help rake it in

    I don't have Arnie Pye (the only non-limited time playable character besides Lugash I haven't purchased yet), but he keeps annoying me whenever I see him flying through my neighbours' Spingfields.

    RT and BHL are both great characters on the show with great lines in the game, but if I had to chose I'd go for the lawyer without a moment's hesitation, as he unlocks a great 16 hour joint task, and the animation for his 8 hour task is my new favorite animation of the game, beating out Maude taking revenge on Homer, the aliens chortling and Selma cudding Jub-Jub. Also, he has a full set of tasks (even if his tasks for one, two, four and twelve hours are the generic Kwik-E-Mart, Guilded Truffle, Hair Palace and Church tasks), whereas the Rich Texan is lacking two and four hour tasks.

    I would recommend against arnie. He's really annoying and has bad lines.

    I dont have the rich texan but I do like the blue haired lawyer a lot.

    I also like dr nick a lot too :-)

    Wait, how exactly do you do this?

    As others said, I wouldn't get Arnie simply because his helicopter animation is extremely annoying. Every time you try to click on something else, if he is even slightly, kinda, sorta nearby the game will select him instead. It gets obnoxious. If Rich Texan is cheaper go for him, but my favorite of the 3 is Burns' Lawyer

    Given those choices, I would choose Rich Texan. I don't have Arnie, but when I visit neighbors, it is so annoying to see him fly across the screen all the time.
