New quest just arrived, part 7 of bombing minion stewies, bomb 400 of them to receive 25 clams and a George Takei meme statue. You get 4 days, if those bombs keep dropping, it will be doable.
One thing I will say about this game that puts it miles above TSTO is the fact tinyco are very generous with free clams. For finishing tasks, almost everyday visiting friends or ollieland, for quests etc
Brilliant news on the new quest, will start it tomorrow for time and also as ill have maximum stewies out.
Wish i hadn't used 4 bombs earlier as although I got 8 in each and a Camera it could have been better out towards this
Surprised though, means that on Friday we will have both minion stewies and the new one, our towns will be full if stewie
Complete crap! I just barely completed the 300 minion task. I know it's not necessary for game progression, but it still sucks. I sit there tapping the snot out of a group of the little boogers, and by the time the smoke clears, I'm lucky if I've nailed five of them. The irony being, initially I was worried about blam, but after spending a whole bunch of money on the game and hedging my bets as much as possible, now I'm probably going to be missing out on content because of these little jerks. :evil: :evil: :evil:
When attempting to bomb minion Stewie, keep a close watch where they wonder, I've noticed one area in my town where they all seem to crisscross each other, if your tapping them to try and get as many has possible, keep tapping until they start to change direction to where your trying to bomb them. I just nailed 13 minion stewies with one bomb
Its not easy and takes a bit of patience, but does work. Currently at 65/400 minion stewies.

I feel your pain, it can be very frustrating, I must keep tapping the screen for anywhere between 2-4mins, sometimes I'm lucky (like in my last post), sometimes the little buggers scurry away and I only get between 4-7 minion stewies. Lowest I've had with one bomb is 2 stewies.. Apparently TinyCo have increased the strength of the bomb cloud to make any stewies in that direct vicinity of the blast disappear. There is a difference
Thank you, dave, but if that's happening in my town, the little creeps are doing it somewhere I can't see. The best I've managed was 11, and it took me about 15 minutes of corralling them in the big open space I cleared in the middle of my town. I think it was more of a fluke or blind luck than anything.

11 minion stewies in one hit is bloody good
It is a repetitive task to try and keep a few in the same place. I tend to ignore any open spaces, the minion stewies tend to criss cross the centre piece of my town near the waterfront, this might be due to my road layout, I don't know, but it seems to work for me. If you see three together, tap them until more appear, then its just fastest finger over and over each minion stewie until you have about 7, if your lucky, you might get a couple more in the bomb blast. Its not easy
I quite like this side to the game, good way to earn blam.

I use the open space, but aside from that, the exact same method. I was trying to get the ten-at-once bombing run, and my previous best was 9. Even when I got that, I quite loudly rattled off every profanity known to man, and invented a few new ones for good measure. I'm glad you like it. I freaking hate it. Granted it does pay out a lot of blam (when I actually hit them), but right now I'm not worried about that. I haven't bought any of the nonessential blam items yet, but I'm somewhere over 80,000 total. Unless they release even more stuff, I'll have plenty of time to get everything that DOESN'T involve minions.

I used all my clams a few days ago to get consuela. I'm already past 100 free clams now from all the freebies. Still need 4 cameras to get stan lee - they've stopped dropping.

My target is robuttasaurus at 65k blam, I'm currently nearly 58k, so the minion stewies are helping, problem I have is I've been sacrificing sending characters on pesticide tasks for giant stewie. I may get three streaks with those that are saved up, but when it needs 18 green or red pesticides, I let the 24hrs run down and start again. Soon will have Stan Lee, may get the next blam prize, but still think GT is out of reach for me

Most of my cameras have come from minion stewies, and two or three from the outhouse thingie. Got my last camera last night from there. Just need the blam now to unlock SL. I've used a few clams to unlock RP and FD, because their item just wouldn't drop, and I've sped up a few tasks, but it was worth it as I got them free anyway

It seems like TinyCo. is bound and determined to turn it into an either-or proposition. If you go for bombs for minions, you're liable to miss out on pesticides for giant Stewie. Unless you spend lots of real money. I know it all eventually counts towards the same total, but it's annoying nonetheless. :roll: Even with all the money I've spent, I am lucky to hit the 25x multiplier on giant Stewie once before I'm out of pesticides, and am forced to give up and let the timer run out.

I thought the same when I started the event, but I've been spamming the pesticide jobs, with everyone else who can get blam doing a 4hr job excluding Bonnie & joe who do the combined 8hr. I get bombs from nerds and lois. I just got the robutasaurus which I thought I'd only get at the end of the event. The counter still says there's about 20days left so I may be able to get takei. If you have no life like me you should be able to make it?
Just unlocked Stan Lee. Is it me or was he much easier to unlock than Patrick Stewart, Ron Perlman and Felicia Day?
Almost at 200/400 minion stewies, only a few scurrying around just now, with 4 bombs available to me I'm going to wait until some more minion stewies spawn. Pointless trying to get the 12 green pesticides I need to hit the 25x multiplier on giant stewie, they never drop. Just wait it out for 24hrs.

Shouldn't be too hard, since I completed the last challenge in time.
I've had a couple, but not since the first week of the event I think. It is nice when they do drop them now and again

Yeah, I have bought all the buildings that are free with collecting Blam as well, not interested in the smaller stuff. Love Perlmans Pets shop
Now saving the blam for Stan Lee, only 3k blam away
