    Cool! Space coyote! The ziggurat would be great, too. It'd go with the mini-golf place.

    It'd be a great time to introduce a few more tents / booths, and the like, maybe some of the renaissance fair ones (different ep, I know, but...) like the fortune teller's tent and Wiggum's esquillax exhibit.
    It would be quite cool to see ask of this!
    I think that if we don't get the chilli cook-off this year, we will probably get it next year!

    Really? ? I wouldn't mind having it again if snakes would be "easier " to catch- didn't hide behind buildings

    I think they would make it easier than last year, seeing as the last two big events were easy. And I think the wheel may come back again, along with personal and community prizes.

    No wheel! That's all I ask! Unless it's a wheel AS WELL as the other way of earning prizes, not instead.

    Yeah it was hard work, 1) I lost my town at the start of the update and had to wait over a week to get my town back 2) due to clearing my town of snakes and then completing my daughters town with 24hrs!! it was a lot of tapping in a short period of time!

    We weren't neighbours back then...
    I knew about your daughter town, good effort mate.. 12.500snakes.... let's say 18h of constant tapping. 12 taps per minut, every minut...one tap every 5sec for 18h to get 12.5k snakes
    I cleared two towns too and helped many players too.
    after the event I remember I took about 2 weeks off.

    I wouldn't mind having it again if they would learn from last year ancient change a few bits here and there.

    I'm ready for Whacking Day! :) Hope the prizes are as good as the last year one's, but easier to get: I don't have that many neighbours, so it's impossible for me to get the last prize if it costs as much as the Sleep-Eazy.

    Yeah totally agree it would need a few tweaks here and there to improve it :)

    I remember getting all the prizes for her town and two of the extra bonus boxes (cant remember what they are called now) Least being neighbours now we can exchange eggs if the update does happen......dont worry i wont hide any behind buildings HAHA!

    You read my mind. I will be stocking up on tents for sure. I was too new at the game last time, and didn't really get the concept of limited time items, so I never got any tents. There are quite a few places in my town that need them.

    I wish they would announce big events rather than just drop it on us.

    I can see your point, it would be nice to know whats coming up in the future but at the same time i like the surprise of finding out there an update and everyone going crazy trying to work it out :lol:

    True, but a little warning would be nice, like they did with Halloween if I remember correctly.

    Yes , it would be great to get a heads up so all your characters arent sruck on tasks at the start of the event!
    As for whacking day , I think it would be cool , providing that they add enough new content to interest people who played last year.
    On the other hand , it would be exciting to play a whole new event. The chilli cookoff was an excellent idea!

    Oh, don't get my hopes up.
    Every time I follow one of these topics, someone has it on good authority we will get it on a specific date. Then we never get it that day making the wait that much more painfull.

    EA just tell us when they are happening!

    Whacking Day started 4/10 last year, which falls on Thursday this year. EA's recent history of procrastinating would put a start day maybe beginning of next week?

    The sooner the better for me. I still get flashbacks from the sound effect when I accidentally tap on the snake, but I think I'm ready to tackle that event again.
