Excuse my ignorance, but what exactly are stackables?
Also. is it really bad that I see the icons bobbing up and down on these screen shots? I know that they're not moving but I see them move because I automatically expect them to be moving.
Your neighbours tap them and you get more then one icon and tapping it rewards you. If you leave 1 icon you can keep getting them like channel 6, farm, tiles
Unfortunately, I checked with my side towns and didn't stack at Channel 6. I have updated out of Halloween, so maybe those who are still waiting to be forced to update may be able to, but not working for me.
Disappointing, as I've got corn ready in two days.
My stargate had three heads this morning, which each gave six rigellians. My rigellian huts each had 2, which each gave 3 rigellians.
My spooky and pumpkin houses have been tapped, and had the handshake icon in place of the normal bag or pumpkin icon. Not sure what is causin the extra heads, will see what happens when they come up ready again.
Just a theory, but it could be that, when a neighbour who has already updated taps one of these buildings (assuming you haven't updated), you get the extra 'token'. To your neighbour, it would just appear that they have tapped a building for you as normal. This would only happen because of the way neighbour visits changed for the event.
I'd love for this to be back but to be honest it might be overlooked too much with some of our towns...about the only benefit I'd get is multiple stacked brown houses thanks to them being the closest to my landing zone :roll:
I had one last night and accidentally tapped them both without realizing it. It must have to do with neighbors being able to tap houses again. I wish I hadn't tapped both, I could use a few more aliens. Oh well I got UBO last night so I'm not too bummed.

This. I think this is what happened.
After some of my neighbours testing the theory a little further I can confirm that:
STACKABLES ARE NOT BACK, consarnit
Sorry for the false alarm guys. Glad I wasn't the only one it happened to.
To the person who asked about the corn, yes it does take 90 days for corn (Xmas corn was just planted Sep 26). When stackables occurred you could reap those rewards many times without having to wait for the cycle to complete again.
Eg 53 neighbours tap your corn = 52 times the corn because you always wanted to leave one icon remaining for neighbours to tap. So long as you were careful where you tapped you could have an endless supply of money and xp.
It only worked on Cletus' Farm, Channel 6, the Open Air Stage and the Squidport entrance.
With the tiles you were also able to exceed the max amount allowed. That part of it was known as Tilegate. It was awesome. The stackables were a controversial topic for a bit there, but there's no need to reopen that topic now.

Seems they arent back so no worries.
I could not have expressed it more eloquently. :?

(Man, I miss stacking. It also always guaranteed there was something to tap in towns. And that doing so was helpful. Oh well.)
