    I can't imagine myself ever growing corn but if I did I would know the exact day and time it would be finished. I would then take a day off of work and have a count down just like New Years. Then the moment it was done I would pull out the champagne and have a toast to myself. However, I wouldn't drink any because I'd suddenly realize what I had done and rush off to work. I'd then blame the traffic for me being late. Later I'd be annoyed I didn't take a screenshot so I'd start growing corn again.

    This made me chuckle. :lol:

    ... On that note as well why the heck do only training walls, SWAT van give righteousness? Clearing graffiti, catching sideshow bob, and doing all the prison tasks multiple times a day for all of them and you never get more than 1/2 a star. ...
    "Prison tasks" do nothing to Righteousness. In fact, no tasks affect ANY of the Conform-O-Meter ratings.
    Only things that boost it are "cleaning graffiti"/"catching Bob" actions, or boosting your actual Righteousness with buildings (Jail, Police HQ, SWAT Van or Training Walls).

    I never graffiti, those things kill my 4.5 stars way faster than NOT cleaning graffiti in my own town. I have some training walls but they hare ugly so I'm not gonna have a farm. And I don't like hiding stuff behind buildings either, anything I can't see gets stored to make my town lighter to load while preserving its visual effect. If I were to move my buildings there would be hundreds of holes in fences, walls, pavement and flower sections.

    I have a confession to make. I don't know how the ConformoMeter thingie works. I DO know that in Krustyland if I have five stars I get a different shuttle. Anything like that in Springfield?

    I know HOW to get the stars ... I just dont know WHY. Does a point in Righteousness add a point to my multiplier? Is that what happens? I've never had five stars, because another percent to my multiplier would only keep giving me more cash and I have lots of multiplier stuff in storage anyway.

    But does the conformity rating do anything else?

    I think you also get more KL patrons, thus more of them to tap on resulting in more KL tickets! :D

    EDIT: TSTOaddicts has an article that explains the break down of the conform-o-meter. I used to not really understand it, either, so I looked it up :D

    Some people take this game waaaay too seriously. LMAO :lol: Take a chill pill. I have no problem whether my town gets graffiti. It's part of the game. And I have no qualms about putting graffiti on my neighbors as well. :?

    Well that is disappointing. I had read a guide that said they did. But I guess I should have realized this wasn't the case. I'm trying to understand why mine goes so crazy. One day it will be 2 stars and then the next be 5 stars. Day to day nothing much different. I still captured bob 3-5 times and cleared graffiti 2-3 times. Does one or two of each of those impact the score that much?

    Tap whatever you want in my town, if you choose to visit. If not, that's okay too. The only thing I really care about is that there are things to tap on for me when I visit other towns, and even that I'm pretty patient with.

    Nah, it's pretty random for everyone. Mine used to drop for no discernable reason, then I unlocked the training wall and it hasn't dropped since. (I actually like to decorate with them, so there are many in my town.)
