Tapped Out Vocabulary and Phrases

Prev1
This is fun. Might I add the following phrase, coined by Mike_bornste:

Pulling a Sneal - 1. A forum poster who has spiraled out of control with rage and trolls this forum in an epic manner; 2. Posting inappropriate or NSFW material on the forum, possibly as a result of rage.

    Nice list. Sadly 5 or more of these apply to me. If it only takes 60 minutes to be a tap head I guess I have problems then.

    Are you still a "Shelbyville Wannabe" if you are missing 2 premium items? What's someone in between a Shelbyville Wannabe and a Spucklerville called?


    Not serious questions by the way. I am guilty of 5 of these myself.

    A few bits of Tapped Out vocabulary & phrases (in no particular order) for your consideration. Please add yours.

    Tap head - well, that's you. Anyone logging in more than 60 minutes per day on TSTO = Tap Head. Also, by default, anyone reading or posting on the forum = Tap Head.

    Shelbyville Wannabe - A Springfield with ALL the premium items.

    See Montgomery Burns - A town with lots of premium items, but nothing tappable. If you notice your town is vandalized a lot you might be a See Montgomery Burns.

    Pulling an All Nedder - Visiting all of your 100 neighboreenos in less than an hour.

    Riding the Monorail - Pulling an All Nedder long AFTER you have collected any necessary game items (Halloween treats, Santa coins, Easter candy(assuming)). See also: Tap Head.
    Is there a rehab program for people like us?

    Two more

    Sugar Fix - The euphoria of buying any quantity above a Tray of Donuts.

    Sugar Crash - The let down of any premium item you really, really, really wanted.

    I think there should be a description / word for players that rush through updates. Likewise, probably a word for the repeated Q's on the forum. Sometimes it looks like Miss Krabappel's Chalkboard.

    And, mid way between Shelbyville and Springfield? Why North Haverbrook of course!

    EDIT: Admittedly think way too much about this.

    Previous Sugar Rush, now Sugar Fix.
    new Sugar Rush - Spending donuts to speed up a building or task.

    Stingy neighbor: A neighbor who visits your Springfield (where a world of santa coins and treats, etc. don't exist) and taps on your Simpsons House, Brown Houses, Kwik-e-marts and all other low income earning buildings.

    Doing a Homer; eating, well using too many donuts in a go, more likely to happen after a donut refill.

    Great phrases from all. Thinking this will be the break out phrase from the post.
