Do Homer and Lisa still occasionally get donuts for the clean up Springfield task?

Thanks

    I've been storing my debris and since that's all my rocket brings back I may have a
    Boatload in storage. Who knows.

    quick check of my Donut Journal shows 3 donuts from rocket debris in recent days, 2 from debris before the rocket, plus 1 at the start of the game which was probably automatic.

    Debris has been very good to me over the years. I've had two from rocket retrieval, but initial clean up was like a gold mine for me. I kept it all in a few plots of land until every plot had been cleared, then set Homer and Lisa on a spree. For some reason, probably pure dumb luck, I got about 60 bonuts from it.

    Last year sometime, many people had donuts mysteriously dissapear in varying amounts from several to hundreds. The only way to get them back was to contact EA and tell them how many they were missing. Fortunately, I was able to get mine replaced. Some people weren't so lucky. Ever since that incident, I keep track of my donuts.

    I have found that since the initial land debris clean up, I haven't received any doughnuts from any space rocket returned debris.... But must admit to have returned a few topiary's & hail the antz signs!!

    I've noticed that only Lisa finds donuts. Homer doesn't. And if he ever did, he'd eat it.

    I think EA looked at donuts gained by "cleaning up" space debris as an error. I watched my friend gain 10 donuts from his space debris. When I "cleaned up" an even bigger pile of space debris (well over 100 pieces) and didn't get a single donut. I originally thought that it was because I was using a Kindle, but my friend hasn't pulled any donuts from his space debris since the day that watched him get 10.

    Does Krustyland debris cleanup produce any donuts?

    I started on iOS the first day this game was released, played for about a week or two, left for about a year and a half

    and joined on Android.

    I have never received a donut from cleaning up debris, this Is even after hoarding about 120 pieces of space debris.

    Two days ago, while clearing up about 4 pieces of space debris, I FINALLY GOT ONE!

    Terrible luck, but now I know that It's possible.

    Now I can't wait to get another one In 2-3 years. :roll:

    Cheers!

    Haven't tested it recently, but I swear you get more donuts if you're using both Homer and Lisa. I'd let my debris pile up for a few months before getting around to clearing any of it and probably got a good 10 donuts for my effort (which is more than I ever got from clearing all the original debris in the game).

    A month or so later I went to clear it out again, but I was only using Homer this time. After shooting through 15-20 pieces with no bonuts, I waited till I had both characters free and the debris started spawning bonuts again (only 3-4 that time around, but I didn't have as large of stacks).

    It is possible EA dialed it down on us, but it's worth trying to have both characters free before cleaning up your stacks.

    I've gotten at least 6 or 7 from space debris. Just got one tonight. It coincided with Sideshow You donuts which have been super rare for me. Terrestrial debris didn't yield much when I cleared in the process of acquiring new plots. I decided to hoard about 70 pieces towards the end of acquiring new plots. Clearing them en masse when the rocket came into play yielded a couple. I have gotten 1 frosted from clearing in Krustyland. I only own 20% of the plots in Krustyland due to an early 5 pie rating & a lack of things to fill the space. If they ever overhaul KL status I think I'm gonna hold onto some of that trash. Like the Krusty artifact feel to some of it.

    Ever since the rocket debris, I have not gotten a single donut from any. Is it bugged?
