    I've just got 5 poles to get for gb joe - I'm concentrating on the stink bombs at the moment. 35 ToTs to get for zuul pyramid. I've also started digging up Francis as I have placed all the prerequisite stuff. The only two things I haven't brewed are the clown and mr we ed.

    Not to be a jerk here, but it's kind of odd how people know to come on here to complain about how hard Diane is, but didn't know to come on here to check what was needed to get her before digging her up, making her incredibly easy to get.

    I won't dig up Francis until I have the necessary things ready to go.

    I'm so mad at this game right now.

    How many things are they going to hit us with at once?

    Cat Meg, alien, Francis, predator, stink bombs, dogs, banshees, latchers, brew decorations!?

    I don't even know how to check the status of the cumulative prizes, but it looks right now like I've already missed the lockers, since it's now pushing the 3rd prize. I don't see a timer like the fab 4 cars had.

    There was NO WAY to get enough latchers in time. I busted my **** to get Dianne and she only drops traps RARELY?? ****!!! No one else drops traps???

    Basically it looks like I've already lost the chance to get the ghostbusters ambulance. And if that is so i am definitely deleting this sadistic game. If the grand prizes are only obtainable by spending money, it should just say so. I'm sick of devoting all my free time to a game you simply cannot win unless you have money to burn. This is the third time that obsessive tapping just wasn't enough. I missed sexy stewie and the fab 4 bus like this, tapping night and day, spending all my clams, never enough. It's crap.


    I haven't spent a single clam and I got Dianne with no problem as well as the lockers.

    It's these trick or treaters driving me nuts, they implement a new way to obtain them fast but not until I only had a day and a half left on my timer. I have 59 so far with only 1 day left, I doubt it will happen

    What's the way to obtain them fast?

    the fact that they lowered the criteria from 200 to 150, they sped up the spawn time of more trick or treaters, they added Bruce to the characters that earn bombs and the bomb tasks changed from 8 hours to 4 hours

    There is no way I'm finishing that 150 goal. I'm only at 31.

    I was at 29 after 24 hours but was able to get to 150 this morning. Keep everyone that can making stink bombs. Play attention to when the trick or treaters spawn. This will allow you to get more at once. You can see there release at the portal like the other things that spawn.

    I caved in and bought clams so I can buy a 12 stink bombs pack. Just finished the challenge. Good job TinyCo in making me spend money yet again.

    Also got Alien with the clams. I still have 250 clams left and debating whether to get Predator or wait for next week.

    You are right, actually. Doesn't change the fact I am done with the game and moved on. It was a nice diversion, but TSTO and **** are more my style and get my money.

    Having to log in every 2 hours for a chance at the items needed to get Diane was the straw that broke this camels back. I'm done with the Family Guy game.
    That's the reason I like Family Guy. It takes dedication. It's obviously not for everyone but then you don't need to get Diane. You have the chance to get free premium items, it shouldn't be too easy

    Enjoy!!

    The funny thing is, I screwed up Diane. Dug her up immediately. Spent 1.5 days getting gb Peter and still managed to get Diane without using a clam!
    So when you dig up Francis you need: pulpit, confessional, mariner banquet hall. just building the hall and I'm done, easy

    Got gb joe - last few poles were surprisingly easy. Got Francis - I sometimes mistake him for one of the floating ghosts as his angel job looks similar. Just realised that if I get mr we ed and what looks like gb Cleveland I'll have enough clams for the xenomorph

    Finally completed the 150 stink bombings - maybe the hardest challenge yet for me personally. Zuul's Portal is a lot bigger than I expected.

    Currently digging Francis' grave, should be done in a couple of hours. Also finishing up GB Joe. Gonna try to get Mr. Wee.d before the next level starts up on Thursday.

    I will be glad when this is over, I was so excited for the Halloween challenges, but I'm pretty disappointed. There is too much going on, ugly decorations, and it's starting to become impossible to get everything done. I'm going to focus more on TSTO, it's not the best event ever, but it's not as complicated and the decorations and prizes are much better. Hoping the Christmas event will be better. To me it just seems you need money to spend to really enjoy this game.

    Agreed. I don't even care if I get all the Ghostbusters prizes, I just want the FG characters (Francis, Mr. W-e-e-d).

    Unlike you, I'm enjoying it. More than just keep sending kids trick or treating for 8 hours on Tapped Out. :?

    The thing with TSTO is that all the non-premium content is incredibly easy to get, basically guaranteed. In FGQFS, some of the items require a grind and can be missed. It requires more of an effort and if you're someone that doesn't want to give a lot of effort I can see why the family Guy game would bother you.

    I am working on getting to District 9, but I have a feeling building the blimp is going to be a nightmare. On top of collecting items for it I'll also be working on Jailhouse Meg, Ghostbuster Joe and unlocking Carter.

    I completed the challenge with about 20 hours left. It was easier for me once they lowered it from 200 to 150 and bombs drop from characters every 4 hours. If you bought the Alien, you also would have gotten 12 stink bombs as a reward once you complete the "Mans's Best Friend" questline. I completed the challenge even before I got the 12 stink bombs reward from completing the quest. Just two more challenges to go! I try to read Family Guy Addicts for tips each week when the next challenge is released to help me complete the challenge on time.

    I would've bought the ship for Alien, but I'm really trying to save up for mr w-e-e-d (it takes forever to get those coins or whatever they are). I won't be heartbroken if I don't get the Ecto-1. Most of the prizes are just decorations that would just end up in storage anyways.

    Considering Mr. W eed is the last brew prize, I can assume we'll even have the ability to earn more vials in the coming weeks; I think TinyCo just showed us what we need for him early on so we can prepare for him and not waste our vials on unnecessary decos. I'm at 8K now but we still need GB Cleveland and costumes for Stewie and Connie, so I'll be using some of those vials again for them. I'm not going to stress about it. :lol:
