    After I collect tonight I will be extremely close to getting the light house. If all my friends have three tappable buildings I should be 30 short. Looks like I'm going to be checking my game often today to try and get those from cleaning up. I am curious how close everyone else is to getting their light house?

    I'm about halfway there. I tend to only get through half my neighbors, and if it's a crashy day I get through less than that. (Sorry, neighbors.)

    Has been a recently problematic thing that, there are three or four neighbours towns i have that crash my game for some reason, so i have to restart my device each time. Gets annoying after a while, especially when i can only get into their KL to tap things. However, i do eventually get there in the end and everyone's towns get visited (once i start visiting neighbours i have to go through them all, i don't like leaving any left out unless there is nothing to tap) :)

    Bummer. I collect in 3 phases. During smoke breaks at work and when I get around to it at home. My game only seems to crash when I collect and only after visiting several neighbors. That's one of the reason I collect in phases. The other reason is because of time issues.

    Decoration or produce money? Hoping for 5k FPs it makes money.
    According to the wiki no money or XP. Boo.

    I'm in about the same position as you, Direwolf. After my collection today I should be less than 100 away. Hoping for a lot of visits :)

    ...not really a waste when it was highly requested by fans. but as just a decoration it's a letdown.

    I'm assuming you felt the same way about the olmec head and Homer's car as you feel now

    But is it truly a waste? What is the reason you want it to produce $$ or XP? You use money to buy things to make your town look cool, and XP to level up so you can...buy more things, or get donuts, which you can use to buy more cool things. So yeah, the lighthouse doesn't contribute to be able to get more stuff, but it is a cool thing in itself.

    In fact it is, to me, the coolest non-premium thing yet that can go in the water. So I will be happy with it. Was busy over the weekend, so I'm only halfway to it even with 100 friends, but I will be glad to get it.

    This is exactly how it works for me too. I managed to collect from all my neighbors today without one crash. Other days, I crash multiple times trying to get through like the first 15 neighbors....then i usually give up in frustration for the day. I would be probably have the lighthouse already if it wasn't for the all the crashes visiting neighbors. Le sigh. :?

    It's a nostalgic decoration for long time fans. It's an iconic part of an excellent episode.

    Haha, exactly right, by definition, being a game, the whole game is 'a waste of time'. It's kind of the point. :lol:

    I think I have a 50-50 chance of getting it tomorrow. Some of my friends have small towns so I can't always be sure to get full FP in all, but Fri for sure. :-)

    The wiki says it's size is 5x5, does that mean it takes up one tile space or slightly more?
