Same issue can't log in...Bart keeps showing up. Hope I still have enough time to finish Part 2 of Event...and New Years tasks. Not the first time I've had this issue...love when I spend money on games and then I can't get into them to play, makes me feel my purchase was worth it.
I'm having the same problem. It was letting me in once in a while but now it won't do anything at all. I have two different devices and one of them won't download the new update at all for quite some time and now the other I have been playing on just quit working this morning. I try to open the game and it just spins the doughnut until Bart comes up and it won't go any further than that. Not sure why this keeps happening but I'm getting a little tired of it especially since the holiday update is out and I cannot participate with this happening. Please fix if possible or tell me what I need to do in order to fix it. Thanks for the help.
Seriously EA. How long does it take to fix this issue. Like everyone else, I cannot get into the game. Bart keeps showing after the spinning donut saying "try again". You give us a timed challenge and then we can't login for hours on end.
I've had trouble the whole day (that's about 14 hours for me), and now it just says connection is down. Sad, there's this New Year's Special I want to complete...
Me too... I'm really tired about these crashes. I can't play because the game stops everytime I try to log in.
It's very disappointing and because of these constant problems I can't finish this Christmas update.
Please fix it soon.
It's incredibly frustrating to play a game with timed tasks that has unreliable servers. Incredibly high requirements to "upgrade" equipment, combined with hours of missed playing time, means equipment not able to be upgraded. these servers are down so frequently, especially with the last update, but EA doesn't care. There is no "sorry you've been locked out of the game for 12 hours and missed completing tasks in time, here is a few donuts to pacify you" or any kind of "sorry for your trouble" compensation. This game has made EA well over a hundred million but they can't bother to take care of their customers. I love this game, but am extremely frustrated with EA.
i thought it was me but I guess everyone is having the same server issuse. Also is anyone not getting the sideshow bob balloon pop for tickets? I hadnt been able to use it for over a week now in krusty land.
Just saw the notice from EA that their servers are down. Thank God the boys and girls at EA are fixing the problem on my day off so I can enjoy it instead of spending my time trying to keep up with canned elves.
Noooooooooooo, I already didn't get quite enough presents when it Barted me before Christmas (specially with those 24 hour tasks). Here it goes again. Please fix it!! And then perhaps extend it a smidge.
I started homer's 3 min tasks yesterday but cannot connect on any device today. Help! I am already having issues with not having enough elves to shoot out of Springfield, this does not bode well for bell collecting. I do hope they extend the event at least.
I've been unable to connect for about 16 hours. it really stinks to be unable to get in while there's a timed event like this. would really appreciate some sort of fix. I've re-installed with no change
For those of us with limited playing time, as in not many days off from work, it is excruciatingly frustrating, compounded by how donut stingy the rewards are, and how expensive it is to purchase donuts, this is incompetence at its finest.

Hard to complete tasks when you're locked out.
